Our Parish Lenten Retreat will take place March 12, 13, and 14 at St. Augustine Church. Living Your Faith During The Year Of Faith. Last year Pope Benedict declared a Year of Faith to run from October 2012 thru November 2013 and encouraged Catholics throughout the world to endeavor to live their commitment to Jesus Christ and His Church in a more intentional, more personal way. This year's Parish Mission is an opportunity to join with other members of the parish to live your faith in Christ during this Year of Faith.
Our presenter for this year's Parish Retreat is Brother Rex Anthony Norris. Brother Rex is a diocesan hermit in the Diocese of Portland. As such, Brother's primary ministry is intercessory prayer for the Church and the world from the silence and solitude of his hermitage. Brother also serves on the ministry team of the Coming Home Network, International, assisting through prayer and spiritual encouragement Protestant clergy and laity who are making their journey home into full communion with the Catholic Church.
