Parish
Night Program Session
two of the ten part series will continue on Wednesday, Nov. 16th.
Father Barron’s “Catholicism” is a ten part video series that takes
the viewer around the Catholic world and explores the Church as a culture
through its teachings, art, music, and architecture and most importantly the
lives it shaped. Father Barron lays
out the Catholic proposal in a visually stunning and engaging series of
presentations that invites everyone into the heart of the faith, which is
friendship with Jesus Christ. After
spending the first session talking about who Jesus is, in the second
installment, Fr. Barron now talks about what Jesus taught, beginning with the
beatitudes and moving on to other key teachings.
For more information on the “Catholicism” series visit www.wordonfire.org.
Father Stef will facilitate each viewing with an open discussion and a
question and answer session. We know
you won’t be disappointed so please plan on attending this year’s Parish
Night Program. Parish Night sessions
begin immediately following 6:30 Mass.

“SAINTS
AS ROLE MODELS” Matt
Swaim will be speaking on this topic Friday,
November 18th,
at 7:30 p.m. at Immaculate Heart of Mary Church, 7800 Beechmont Ave.,
Cincinnati. He will
include the 5 saints that he used in his latest book "Tending the
Temple" (St. Peter Gonzales, St. John the Dwarf, Blessed Bartolo Longo, St.
Vitus, and St. Mark the Evangelist) and how they can each be a model for our
spiritual and physical health. Matt is a producer of the Son Rise Morning
Show at Sacred Heart Radio and is the author of three books, including the
yearly devotional "Tending the Temple" he wrote with Dr. Kevin Vost,
Peggy Bowes and others, which uses the lives of the saints as models of
spiritual and physical fitness. There will be copies of "Tending the
Temple" available for sale. Any questions
email thirtypluscs@catholicweb.com
or call Mike Shaffer 513-846-8189.
The
Prayer After Communion
“And their
eyes were opened and they recognized him” (Luke 24:31). The
Church
celebrates the Eucharist with eyes opened wide in recognition of Christ her Lord
and
Bridegroom. The priest introduces the Prayer After Communion as he did the
Collect
at the beginning of Mass, saying, “Let us pray.” The assembly responds in a
brief
but
intense silent prayer. The priest then prays in the name of all for the fruits
of the
mystery
just celebrated: healing of mind and body, the forgiveness of sins, the
protection
of
God, and strength to go forward in holiness. The people seal the prayer with
their
Amen. Brief announcements may follow, prepared in advance and made in such
a way as
to
foster the climate of reverence and joy that should characterize the Mass from
beginning
to end.
In a final
greeting, “The Lord be with you,” the priest wishes the people the
abiding
presence of Christ. The people in turn acknowledge the gift of grace that is his
for
the service of the Church: “And with your spirit.” The blessing follows.
During Lent
a
Prayer Over the People may precede it; on festive occasions a more solemn
formula
may
be used.
