Steven and Kathleen share their Healing stories as we kick off our monthly Healing Service.

Next week’s second collection will support the Holy Father’s “Peter’s Pence” collection that provides funds for emergency and disaster relief.

As we come to the end of the month of September, we should be mindful of the fact that we are celebrating National Hispanic Heritage Month (September 15-October 15). It is a month in which special events and days are set apart to remember the great gifts, contributions, and joy the Latino community has brought to the United States. Their migration here, like the migrations of the past Irish, Italian, Polish etc., have enriched our community, city, and nation. While some decry any recent immigration as an “invasion”, the Latino migrations, born out of similar circumstances that prompted other European and Asian migrations, primarily seek more opportunities and a better life. My experience in my own family is that some came knowing that there was no going back, others came hoping to one day return, but all have wanted to remember in some part, culture, food, and music.

The Alpha program has moved into the next phase, and we are now settled in with our guests and hope that once again the Holy Spirit comes and works through the team and on the hearts and minds of all the guests. I am pleased that once again we have people from both parts of the community and that there are tables of people discussing the videos and coming to a deeper understanding of who Jesus is. Please pray for the team and guests, that the Lord will help them see Him in their lives.

This week’s second collection supports the retirement, medical and financial needs of priests in good standing throughout the Archdiocese of Boston.
