Healing Mass Nov. 13, Saturday, 11am Feb. 12, Saturday, 11am
All are welcome! The Healing Mass is open to all who hope in the physical, mental, emotional, and
spiritual healing our God offers to us. Join us as we pray for each other and with each other, and see the
many ways God can heal each one of us. At a Healing Mass, we simply bring our needs and infirmities to
the Lord through the Eucharist.
"Lord, I am not worthy to receive you but only say the word and I shall be healed."
The Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick will also be available following the mass.
"Is anyone sick among you? He should call for the priests of the Church and have them pray
Over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord and the prayer of faith will save the
sick person and will raise him up." (James 5:15)
Who needs God's Healing?
Someone who is sick … or someone who has been physically injured … someone in a difficult relationship
or going through a divorce … someone who is grieving the loss of a loved one … someone who is
fighting an addiction … someone who is depressed … someone struggling with anger or anxiety …
someone who is finding life too difficult … someone feeling abandoned … someone who has lost their
faith. The truth is that all of us at some point in our lives need the healing power of God.
Bring your faith (and your doubt) and come and join one another in prayer.
These Franciscan women give their lives to prayer to support all of us in our work and
daily lives. St. Francis promised St. Clare that his friars would always care for the sisters
throughout the ages and the friars are happy to be of assistance to them. If you'd like to
purchase some home-made tamales, the sisters will be taking orders the weekend of
November 6 and 7, then will deliver the prepared tamales the weekend of November 13
and 14. If you can make a donation to the sisters to help them, they do not receive
salaries and so depend on the generosity of their donors. In return, they always pray for
the good of their donors, calling down the blessing of God upon those who care for them.
God has blessed his church through the legacy of Sts. Francis and Clare, so now we
thank the sisters for their part in continuing the Franciscan message.
