Let the King of Glory Enter
Lenten Parish Mission with Fr. Mark Cherry
March 17–19
St. Patrick Church
All are welcome! There is no cost to attend the Parish Mission; however a Free-will offering will be taken to support the Mission. Jesus Christ is the King of Glory! He has come to restore to us what was lost in the fall of our first parents, Adam and Eve. Jesus has opened the way back to the Father; He has restored direct access to His Presence that Adam and Eve experienced in their state of original justice.
The Parish Mission explores in depth how Jesus has accomplished this for us through His passion, death and resurrection. The Parish Mission offers the opportunity to experience the presence, power and the glory of the Lord in a fresh new way in our lives. In His Presence there is healing, freedom, break throughs and miracles.
Come with an expectation of receiving a touch from the Lord as we hear His word and enter into His Presence with thanksgiving, praise and worship for all He has done for us. Lift up your heads, O gates; rise up, you ancient portals, that the King of glory may enter. Psalm 24:7

Daily Prayer of the Month (April)
Heavenly Father,
As we continue our Lenten journey, may we worthily prepare for Holy Week and our salvation on Easter Sunday. From Good Friday until Divine Mercy Sunday may we remember to participate in the Divine Mercy novena. We implore you for an end of abortion and your knowledge to eradicate disease. We beseech you on behalf of those in war-torn regions of the world. We request your counsel for our elected officials. We pray for the health and guidance of Pope Francis and Bishop Matano. We ask these in the name of your son, Jesus,
Amen
