Our Guardian Angel

A Guardian Angel has been added to the garden area next to the Blessed Sacrament Chapel.

This statue should remind us of God's constant care for us, especially our children. The statue was blessed by students of our school. It is a copy of an angel in a church in Tuscany, Italy. She has been named "Maggie" by some of our parishioners (if a guardian angel needs a name!).

BECOMING CATHOLIC: BELONGING TO THE FAMILY

Are you the spouse of a Catholic, who has been attending Mass here for many years, feeling yourself Catholic in many ways but just never having formalized it?

Are you interested in completing that relationship by formally making a profession of faith, being confirmed and taking an active part at the eucharistic table? The RCIA is a process that brings adults to full communion with the Catholic Church.

Call Sue Ballotti +1 310 618 2004 for more information or just join us at one of the scheduled summer days. All are Welcome!! We meet on Sunday mornings in the parish center after 9:30 Mass (about 10:45). RCIA Summer sessions : July 14, August 4, August 25, September 15.

Coming Up:

Bible Study: The Acts of the Apostles
Starting June 18: Tuesdays, 9:15 to 10:30 AM - St. Margaret Mary Room

GRIEF AND LOSS GROUP: Starting in the Fall - Thursdays, 7 PM, SMM Lounge
Judy Garvey MFT, facilitator. Most participants who attended previous group sessions stated that sharing with others who experienced grief and loss was the part that was most helpful to them. The subjects that came up most often were issues that had to do with forgiveness, especially forgiveness of self. Please join us and we will walk the path through grief together.
