Mary's Prayer Group
Our collaborative is now hosting a prayer night a couple of times a month. After the opening prayer, a Gospel reading is read aloud, and attendees can share (if they wish) on how this impacts them. Then we offer intentions for our prayers, including intentions for the sick, those that have died, for our youth going back to school and faith formation, the pandemic, our country, and attendees added intentions. Then we pray the rosary. It is important to note that you don't need to know the rosary, or need to have one to attend!
We hope you can join us!!

Mission 2021
Our collaborative parishes are happy to announce, we will be aided in our Lenten journey by the return of our Lenten Mission this March 15, 16, and 17 7:30 pm to 8:30 pm! We have reworked the program, which was scheduled last year for the first week the Cardinal told us we should cancel public worship, to be more fitting for our current experiences and need for spiritual strength and nourishment.
We hope many of you will be able to join us in person at St. Mary Church (while maintaining social distancing), but for those who need to stay home, we are making it a “hybrid” mission with the option to participate through Zoom. Sister Regina Dick, the Daughter of St. Paul who was prepared to lead last year’s mission, will give a talk one night, and we are expanding upon her original plan to have a few parishioners give witness talks as well. On one or two of the nights, we will be inviting people in the church (and those participating via Zoom) to share brief comments after the talk

Baby Bottles for Lent
Baby bottles are coming back to St. Martha (open to all of pwc.com) ! This year, the bottles are offered at three sites: in the church (baskets in front and back, please take the bottle that you touch), at the parish office and virtually by going to the St. Martha/St Mary website pwc.church and click on this link to the Abundant Hope where you may donate by check or credit card. Especially during this challenging year, Abundant Hope will be extremely grateful for your support of this life saving minis-try. Your sacrificial offerings saved from the little sweets and luxuries you give up during this Lenten season truly make a big difference in the lives of many women and their babies, born and unborn. Many thanks!
