Jubilee 2025 is a Holy Year proclaimed by Pope Francis, which happens every 25 years. The theme for Jubilee 2025 is “Pilgrims of Hope”, and it will be a year of hope for a world suffering the impacts of war, the ongoing effects of COVID-19 pandemic, and the climate crisis.
The Holy Door will open to mark this hopeful time of grace, reconciliation, and spiritual renewal for all Catholics.
The 2025 Atlantic Hurricane Season begins on June 1st and ends November 30th, 2025. Early predictions are that this will be an above active season, with more storms than the past previous years.
History has taught us that being prepared is crucial to surviving a storm and the time immediately after a storm.
So are you prepared? Have you made your evacuation plans and ensured that your hurricane insurance is up to date? Now is the time to check your homes for any repairs that may be required, and any surrounding property to ensure that big trees would not impact your property in strong winds. In the event of an approaching hurricane, in addition to purchasing extra food and water supplies, be sure to fill your prescription medications and if possible have some extras on hand. Battery operated flashlights, lanterns and radios are a must if you do not have a generator which will require extra fuel or diesel.
Being prepared saves lives.
You are invited……..To Join Our Church Choir
Children (6-12) Youth (13-25) Adult (25+)
If interested please Whatsapp Patricia Ellis at 557-8118 or contact the Parish Office at 326-6004. Rehearsals are held on Thursdays at 6:30pm in the Church Sanctuary.
Let’s make beautiful music together for the Glory of God.
In both human and divine relationships, there can be no romance without a reverent listening to the other. When we make room in our lives for silence, the heaven and earth within us find each other. Then the Word of God is able to put down deep roots. These listening roots sense our desire for bonding with the Holy One.
