Many thanks to all who helped us celebrate the season of Christmas. To those involved with the music, singing, ministers of welcome or communion, lectors, decorators and all of those who donated for the flowers in memory of a loved one, and for anyone else who I forgot… thank you!
As we begin a New Year, we now settle back into our routines. Is there something spiritual which you should include in your routine which you haven’t had the time to do? Every weekend there is a four or five minute video presentation on FORMED.org that is about the Sunday readings.
FORMED.org is an online subscription which we have acquired for the entire parish. It is an online CATHOLIC site for movies, videos, ebooks and talks. There are a number of notable speakers like Scott Hahn. My niece also discovered there are some videos for children under the youth section of videos. It also has an app that can be downloaded to your mobile devices so you can take it with you wherever you go. Be sure to pick up one of the Christmas cards in the pews that introduces FORMED.org and provides the parish access code that you will need to register.
I hope you will take some time to look and discover the wealth of material that is available for you and your family on FORMED. It is good way to nourish your spiritual life this year.
