Altar Flowers MemorialEach week you may honor a loved one with a gi] of $150 to dedicate the floral arrangement that adorns our Sanctuary. =e Altar Flowers are dedicated this week in loving memory of Harold Christopher Truax, II.

Memorial GiftsAt the death of a loved one, many choose in lieu of flowers to encourage friends and family to make a donation to a special charity or cause. Our Lady of Mercy has nourished the spiritual life of so many parishioners and those throughout the Diocese who come here. A Memorial Gi] to our Traditions for Tomorrow Capital Campaign is a wonderful way to acknowledge the lives of our beloved dead with a gi] of loving generosity to the church that has been such a spiritual home. Ms. Deanie Smith can discuss beautiful ways for you to remember your loved one.

Consider adding a planned gi. in your last will and testament to remember Our Lady of Mercy.

Heavenly Father,

In this year of Mercy, we are mindful of the love of your son, Jesus, poured out for us.

For more than 70 years, Our Lady of Mercy Parish has been a spiritual home to your people.

A place of forgiveness and healing;

A place of silent prayer and joyful celebration;

A treasure of sacramental life and grace.

Orough the intercession of Our Lady, whose presence is so strongly felt in this holy place,

Renew your life in us;

Increase our faith and trust;

Bless the works of our hands and the Traditions for Tomorrow;

Let us not be content with eTorts of the past but lead us with your Spirit

to serve the generations to come;

Open our hearts to give generously of ourselves and our resources

to provide for the needs of the future;

Renew us from within; and

Give us generous hearts.

We ask this through Christ Our Lord.

AMEN

Our Lady of Mercy, pray for us
