RENEW
RENEW began the week of Feb. 10th.

In a world of uncertainty, turmoil, wars, endless political debates and our Church in struggle, RENEW is a program offering the re-discovery of our Catholic faith and what it means to belong to the People of God.

Through small faith-sharing groups offered at a variety of times, we are provided with the opportunity to learn more about our faith, reflect on the upcoming Sunday’s Scripture Readings, and to share thoughts, feelings, and insights gleaned from our prayer.

The groups are designed to be welcoming, non-threatening, and mutually supportive. They meet for 1½ hours per week at a host’s home. Experience is showing that commitment to this 7 week season, provides the time we need for our own spiritual development and well-being.

“Sign-up Sunday” was January 27 and February 3rd.

Sister Anne: "RENEW, as you recall, is a program of prayer, reflection, and sharing around the Sunday Scripture Readings which will be held throughout Lent and Easter Week.

Each RENEW season is all new so everyone is invited to consider attending one of the faith-sharing groups that meet weekly for an hour and a half.

Here’s how it works:

1. Check the posted days/times for meetings which will be found in the foyer. There are many options there and more will be provided if needed. Let us know! (Call Sr. Anne at the rectory).

2. Fill out a form attached to the meeting of your choice. You will be notified of location and further details by the Group Leader.

RENEW has brought many of us to a greater knowledge and appreciation of God’s Word. Lent is a time when we all want to do a little more to grow in God’s love. This is one good way of doing just that.
