Rebuilt Faith 



                                                       

“Rebuilt Faith” A Handbook for Skeptical Catholics


Many people are enjoying the book either on their own or as part of a discussion group. Groups meet on Sunday after mass during coffee hour at Our Lady of Lourdes or at St. Mary’s in the main vestibule after Sunday mass. Copies of the book are available in the vestibule at no cost. You are welcome to join the group when you are able.


For Reflection: When was a time you saw the goodness or mercy of od in your life? Was there ever an experience when you felt the presence and power of God in a palpable way? People are attracted to God in various ways. Which of the ways in today’s reflection speak to your heart?


Prayer: God, our heavenly Father, lead me to a greater understanding of the reason I have hope in your Son. Reveal to me the times in my life that I have encountered Jesus, so I can share my experience with others. I thank you for bringing me to deeper faith and that my faith will have an eternal impact on others. In Jesus’s name. Amen.


Scripture:

“Always be ready to give an explanation to anyone who asks you for a reason for your hope.”

    -1 Peter 3:15

The Catholic Communities of Eastern Broome


In 2009, the Catholic Communities of Eastern Broome County were linked together as a Parish Cluster. Consisting of the four parishes of Our Lady of Lourdes in Windsor, St. Joseph's in Deposit, St. Joseph's in Sanitaria Springs and St. Mary's in Kirkwood. The parishes operate under the leadership of a Parish Life Director with sacramental needs provided by retired priests.

For more information please call the parish office at 607-775-0086.

A NOTE ABOUT MASS INTENTIONS 

  

Our church has the beautiful practice of accepting mass intentions. An individual may request a mass to be offered for a certain intention: or example, in thanksgiving, for the intentions of another person (such as a birthday or  anniversary), or, as is most common, for the repose of the soul of someone who has died. One must never forget the great spiritual benefit andinfinite graces that flow from the Sacrifice of the Mass. It is a wonderful spiritual gift.


If you would like to request an intention for a mass, simply call the parish office and we will help you schedule a date and time good for you. 

The donation is $15.00, but if need be, we can discuss that when you call the office at 775-0086.

Please join us in praying for the sick of our  parish communities
