A New Church for St. Clare!

Waveland, MS is having a dedication ceremony for their new church on September 17, 2010 with Father Cuddy. After the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, construction is finally coming to an end for the patient parishioners of St. Clare Parish! While weather held up progress for a bit after the actual breaking of ground, once conditions cleared, the work has progressed rapidly.

Ten Week Study of Psalms- the School of Prayer

Tuesdays at St. Felix School--Faith Formation Office

With Psalms: The School of Prayer, The Great Adventure moves from telling the Story to making it personal. While the historical books of the Bible recount God’s creative and redemptive acts in history, the Psalms reveal Israel’s response to God’s covenant offer and serve as a model for our response to Him. Indeed, one could say that the historical books tell the "outside" of the story of Israel by giving an historical perspective, while the Psalms tell the "inside" story, which comes from the deeply personal perspective of one who is seeking God. Our communication with God is enhanced by a deeper understanding of the book of Psalms and of the individual psalms that reside in each of our hearts. If interested in finding out more about this series, please contact the Faith Formation Office or Parish Office.

Caring for Aging Loved One

Caring for an aging parent is a responsibility few people ever expect and it often presents challenges that we never envisioned. Many of us avoid thinking about our parents falling ill or growing weak. We often don't feel equipped to handle the welfare of those who raised us. Confusion, sadness, helplessness jar us during this unsettling transition. Join Karen Evers from St. Elizabeth Care Center as she holds a discussion on Caring for the Aging providing ideas and suggestions for this growing trend. We will be meeting in the Parish Office Meeting Room at 6pm on September 9th. For questions call the Parish Office at 651-565-3931.
