Health Care Ministry Needs Your Help
Is the Holy Spirit calling you to bring Christ to
those unable to attend Mass?
Our Healthcare Ministry Team goes into homes,
group homes, and John C. Lincoln Deer Valley
Hospital 7 days a week. We consist of volunteer
Eucharistic Ministers from Sts. James, Luke, and
Thomas More parishes.
However, many of us are elderly, have health
problems, don't drive, and need YOU to come
share this most precious gift from God - the opportunity to take His Only Son to those people who
cannot come to Him!
Please drop your recyclable items
off on your way to work and help
earn money for St. James!
Collecting:
plastic, aluminum,
paper and cardboard.
Training is provided - only a tender, compassionate heart, and love of Christ and His fellow followers are pre-requisites. Please consider this request for your help!

Catechetical Moment
The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is comprised of 4 parts. The
Introductory Rites, Liturgy of the Word, Liturgy of the Eucharist, and Closing Rites. Jesus instituted the Mass for our
sanctification and spiritual nourishment. Each part of the
Mass contains essential elements that are to be taken as a
whole. What a beautiful event we participate in every week.
It is important to stay in Mass until the final blessing. Then
we may go out into the world and proclaim Jesus is Lord.
