iWISSH: One-Day Retreat

Retreat update: 30 women gathered on an unexpectedly sunny day at Effie Yeaw Nature Center for fellowship on the theme of “Hearing God’s Whisper Amid the Noise.” We learned about precepts of Ignatian Spirituality and practiced the Examen prayer thanks to theologian Maureen Pryor, and tried a session of Catholic mindfulness (meditation) thanks to Anna-Marie Stouder.
​ Find iWISSH on Meetup.com to view our upcoming events.

An Message from your Pastoral Council
Our theme this year is “Creating a culture of invitation.”
We began in September with a reminder that Christ has no hands but ours. Members have prepared summary reports from many of our ministries (with more to come). So much is happening in our parish! Visit the website to read these reports, and our meeting minutes.

In other business, the council considered creating a rideshare program to help people get to Mass but we ran into liability risks. So instead we encourage you to reach out to one another. Ask if a ride is needed. Offer to pick someone up. Let’s be a community of welcome! On that note, the council discerned a need for an improved hospitality ministry. Member-at-large Christian Okoye is leading our effort. Watch for updates. Next election for an at-large Pastoral Council member will be in April. Will you run?

 
Help is wanted to launch a “rolling ministry fair,” each month putting the spotlight on one of our ministries. Can you take the lead to make this happen and enliven our community? Call or text council chair Amy Rogers (916) 712-3334.

Center for Ignatian Spirituality: Prayer Practicum Sessions SPRING 2019

The Center for Ignatian Spirituality is offering its Prayer Practicum on two Tuesdays and two Saturdays each month this year. 
The Prayer Practicum is meant to offer actual experiences of various forms of prayer for a half hour. Then the second half hour is an opportunity to respond to questions about spirituality and one’s prayer life. All Prayer Practicum Sessions are free. Take home a copy of the bulletin, see the posters on the bulletin boards, or check out our parish website for more information. If you would have any questions, feel free to talk to
Fr. Dave.
