The 17th Diocesan Pilgrimage
The 17th Diocesan Pilgrimage to the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, Washington, DC, will be Saturday, September 15, 2012, the Feast of the Mother of Sorrows. Good Shepherd Church is looking for a Parish Pilgrimage Promoter whose duties would primarily be to collect the names and payment for the pilgrimage from our parish. The promoter would also communicate to those who will be going the schedule for the day, and work with other Parish Pilgrimage Promoters in the Deanery to fill as many busses as possible. The Promoter will also serve as Bus Captain. Please contact the church office at 788-3141 if you are interested in this position.
Prayer Intention Book
There is a new
Liturgical prayer intention book in the back of the church. The book is in accordance with the Liturgical year and has space for intentions
every day of the week. We encourage you to “briefly” indicate your intention
on the lines provided for that specific day. All intentions will be included
in the petitions for that day.
Mass Completion
Masses which begin are to he completed if at all possible. If a parishioner takes ill during a Mass, we simply cannot dismiss the congregation. While certainly the ill person must be ministered to, the Mass must be prudently continued; also if the priest celebrating the Mass takes ill, the Mass is to be completed by another priest if at all possible. Please keep this in mind if any instances of illness occur during the celebration of the liturgy.
