Mary's Month

Our last weekend in April was spent at Holy Name Parish in Harrisburg, PA. Holy Name has a beautiful new church which blends the modern and the traditional. Holy Name parish is home to Sister Jennifer, a Daughter of St. Paul, missioned in California. Many parishioners remember Sister who was active in the folk choir and other parish groups. Our Pauline book & Media display was well received. In fact, the display at Holy Name Church in Harrisburg will remain open for this coming weekend May 5th and 6th. Thanks to many generous people who helped us Sisters after all the Masses this past weekend.
On Mother's Day weekend we will be closer to home at St. Albert Church on Welsh Road in Huntingdon VAlley, PA. During the month of May we honor our own mothers as well and in a special way we honor Mary, Mother of God, and our spiritual mother. During these post-Easter weeks we witness many youngsters receiving First Holy Communion and Confirmation. Pauline Books & Media offer many titles to use for appropriate gifts for your favorite young people. Of course for Mother's Day there are many titles for moms young and more mature. Visit us at our displays or order from our email at philadelphia@paulinemedia.com. Or, you may call us at 215-676-9494. May you enjoy a lovely month of May filled with joy and many graces. The Archdiocese of Philadelphia is offering a wonderful opportunity to grow in our faith and in a deeper understanding of worship: our Mass and liturgy. Father Dennis Gill who heads the Office for Divine Worship is presenting three talks in the forthcoming weeks of May. Father's presentations are more of a retreat than a class. We invite you to join us as we participate in this wonderful opportunity to deepen our knowledge and love of our Lord expressed in our Catholic way of praying. The talks take place from 7:00 -- 8:30 PM in the auditorium (first floor) of the Pastoral Center, 222 North 17th Street, Philadelphia, PA 19103. The next session is scheduled for Wednesday evening, May 16; the third lecture is Tuesday evening, May 22nd; and the final presentation is Thursday, May 31st. For more information contact by email worship@archphila.org, or call 215-587-3537.
