It is a Holy Day of Obligation. Mass will celebrated in the church at 8:30 and at 7:00. Our celebration of the Eucharist, the Mass, is the source and the summit of our faith. As Catholics, we proclaim our belief that the bread and wine consecrated during Mass become Christ Himself--His Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity- Holy Communion. Once consecrated, it is not merely a piece of bread or cup of wine. At San Francisco Solano church, Eucharistic Adoration with Exposition is available every Friday. On the first Friday of each month, Adoration takes place from 9 AM until 9 PM. All other Fridays of the month, Adoration takes place from 9 AM until 5 PM. As the morning Mass ends, the Blessed Sacrament is placed in a beautiful stand known as a monstrance on the main altar of the church, and Jesus Christ is exposed in the Blessed Sacrament for all to see. We must have committed worshippers scheduled at hourly intervals for visiting Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament to ensure that the Eucharist is never without veneration. There is an electronic sign-up on the parish website:www.sanfranciscosolanorsm.org Please prayerfully consider your availability to come to Adoration and spend time with Christ. You are welcome to come spend time in the presence of Christ even if you are not a scheduled adorer for as short or as long a time as you like. Any time you spend with Him is transforming.

You are invited to explore this program, which has been described as a spa for your soul. Women's Circle is a peer ministry for adult women of all ages and stages of life, offering an opportunity to nurture your spirituality, deepen your faith, and build community. This season we will be using the book, Heaven Starts Now Becoming a Saint Day by Day, by Catholic Pastor and author Fr. John Riccardo. Fr. Riccardo helps us dive into the Scriptures so that we can apply them to our daily lives. In his inspiring and incisive way, Fr. Riccardo addresses the obstacles we all face in becoming mature disciples. How do we learn to forgive? How do we combat fear and understand suffering? How do we worship the Lord, love others as Christ loves us, and fully surrender our lives to God? Come join other women of the parish as we explore these questions. Together we can learn how to live as a reflection of Christ and see how Heaven can start now. Meetings are held on Tuesdays at 9:30-11:30 AM and are repeated at 6-8 PM. They continue until Tues., Nov. 27. There is a $20.00 fee for the program. which includes a copy of the book. For information, please email Lori LaFavre at lori@lclafavre.com.
