Parish Life

If  you would like make a dedication through the wine and host, please contact the  office.  Cost of the wine and hosts is $20 per week. It is a lovely way  to pay tribute to someone special.

Into Your Hand O Lord, we commend the souls of our dearly departed.

Please remember in prayer all those who are seeking employment at this time.  

We  can hear God speaking to us today in the words of the father to his  elder son: “You are with me always, and everything I have is yours.”  What is my response to such remarkable generosity? Do I give joyfully  and generously as God gives to me? 

Would  you like to enhance the celebration of our weekend liturgies? The  flowers that we enjoy each weekend are donated by parishioners for  various reasons: in memory of a deceased loved one, in celebration of a  special event such as a baptism , marriage or anniversary, or as a  loving gesture. For further information, please contact  the office  252-523-8898.

“Dear  God; We pray to give all of our soldiers the courage and strength to do  the duty that is required of them. May they always remember our  appreciation for the sacrifice they are making for us. We are thankful  for the men and women who are willing to risk their lives to protect our  freedom. We ask you to go with each one of them and protect them  wherever they go.” Amen.

God  is the father with the open arms. Who will preach this good news of  reconciliation? Consider service as a priest or deacon, brother or  sister. 

(Luke 15:1-32)
