FAREWELL, WARMING CENTER GUESTS…
On Sunday, we say farewell and Godspeed to our several
homeless men and women who participated in our Warming
Center. This is the tenth year we have provided this ministry:
one week of hospitality, meals and a warm place to sleep. We
also had a makeshift “store” where our guests could obtain
personal toiletries and sundries during their stay. Our guests
always notice how hospitable and generous we are at St.
Martin’s, and how we respect their human dignity. Special thanks
to all of our generous and dedicated volunteers, donors and hosts. Thanks especially to our Christian Service Director, Renee’ Heileman, RN, who coordinates this monumental task every year!
THIS TUESDAY IS PACZKI DAY!...
Tuesday is “Mardi Gras” (“Fat Tuesday”), when everyone eats everything they want and everything they are going to give up for Lent the next day! But for Polish-Americans, it is Paczki (“punch-key”) Day – when we indulge in oversized filled pastries of various flavors. The Active Christian Women’s Club will be in the parish center after the 9:30 AM Mass on Tuesday to offer you one free paczek (“pun-check”), and more for sale. An entertaining movie will follow. Come join us for food, fellowship and film!
THIS WEDNESDAY IS ASH WEDNESDAY! …
Seems like we just put away the Christmas decorations and here we are on the threshold of another Lenten season. Something to consider: How can you make this the best Lent ever? Go online to the Dynamic Catholic website, and Matthew Kelly will tell you what you can do. We are preparing a special pamphlet for you which has all of our Lenten activities. I especially ask you to prayerfully consider joining us for Sung Evening Prayer every Monday evening at 7:00 PM during Lent. Folks who have attended have said that it is an awe-inspiring experience of sung prayer, based on the Roman Catholic Church’s tradition of praying the Psalms twice a day in community. Join us!
ARE YOU READY TO “STUMP THE PASTOR?...
Last fall we had a most entertaining evening of Catholic questions and answers. Folks submitted questions that they have always had about the Catholic Faith, but either were not answered, or were not answered fully. Because you submitted so many questions last time, we were able to get through only half of them. Saturday, February 29 at 6 PM in the parish center hall, we will attempt to answer the rest of them. Refreshments will be served, and there will be entertainment before the game begins. And, of course, there will be my unique brand of humor and song during the game. I did pretty well last time; I was stumped only twice in an hour and a half!
HAVE A BLESSED WEEK… AND “SEE YOU IN CHURCH!”
Fr. Nick Zukowski
