Meet The Saints, Get to know Jesus
All Classes will be held at the Holy Angels Center.
Come watch the lives of these Saints and get plenty of ps for your own journey to holiness. These movies have great entertainment value and will energize your spiritual life. At the end of the movie, share your comments if you are comfortable doing so and don’t stop there; find out more about these saints and get closer to Jesus. Time permi ng we will browse for youtube material on their lives and accomplishments.
Last Class - 3/21 from 6:30 -9 PM: Saint Polycarp: You will get a new understanding of what it means to be Chris an by watching how Chris anity spread in the early days. Chris ans are called to take a stand for jus ce, for the poor, the immigrant and the des tute. You must prepare to take your stand for your Lord.
Thomas a’ Kempis, a Catholic monk and a great spiritual writer of the15th century said; “The cross is always before you, it awaits you everywhere. No ma er where you go, you can’t escape it.” In this world there is so much suffering and in the lives of each one of us, we experience it ... physically, emo onally and spiritually. What should our response be to suffering... to the “crosses” that come into our lives? The world sees the cross as folly, our faith teaches us that there is meaning and merit in our crosses, trials and sufferings. We can gain great insight on how to carry our crosses from the saints and the great spiritual writers of the Church, along with Sacred Scripture. Come to a talk given by Deacon George en tled “The Cross – Our Response,” on Palm Sunday, April 5th at2:00 pm in Holy Angels Church. Our crosses arenot a terrible thing. It’s through our crosses inlife that we will merit eternal life.
The Cross - Our Response

The parishioners of Our Lady Queen of Angels have answered the call. We thank you for your generosity at Thanksgiving and Christmas that provided food for so many families who might
have gone without a holiday meal. You contributed enough groceries to meet our needs
and then some. Our Church family donated canned goods, dry goods, meats and also
provided significant financial assistance. That monetary support provided us with the
opportunity to purchase a few items that were needed, including the turkeys, and allows us to
meet future needs. There were some very significant anonymous dona ons and we can’t
thank you enough. Your concern and though ulness will always be remembered. Any
dona on, whether a can or a case, whether a dollar or more adds up to a convincing concern
for others. Now, as we have no ced an increase in weekly food requests and head towards the Easter season, we ask you for your help again. We are in need of the following items: soups,
tuna, peanut bu er, tomato sauce, cake mixes, icing, pie crusts, canned pie filling or pudding. Also, canned fruit especially apple sauce and
pineapple, and canned beans (cannelloni, chick peas and the like). If you have any large paper bags or reusable bags we can surely use that as
well. Again, thank you for all you do to help others, a true Chris an trait.

“The Walk” (Starts April 13th) How do we walk with Christ - daily follow him, grow in him, and faithfully serve him? In the Gospels, Jesus modeled for us the Chris an spiritual life.

Each of these prac ces is intended as part of our daily walk with Christ while also being an essen al part of growing together in the church. Join us to deepen your walk with Christ as we explore the five essen al prac ces of worship, study, serving, giving, and bearing witness to our faith. Instructor: Deacon Don Smith
