Church Expansion Presentation:
We have started planning for the next phase of our Master Plan, which is expanding the church. We have been meeting with our architects and builders, our major consultative groups in the parish, the diocesan liturgical commission and Bishop Campbell and with other artists and consultants.
A presentation was given March 24 & 25 after all the Masses to present draft conceptual ideas about what this expansion project might look like. Here is the text to the presentation.
Please take the time to review and offer your comments, questions, or concerns either on this electronic response form or the paper response form in gathering space or by calling the parish office.
After we received your feedback, we will continue to develop ideas for what the church expansion will entail, look at projected cost and get back to you with proposed plans on how and when to implement the next phase in the future.
Armor of Light
Did you know that pornography is a $57 billion a year industry? Compare that to the combined revenues of all teams in the NBA, NHL, MLB, and NFL equaling $12 billion, and the combined revenues of ABC, CBS, and NBC which ring up at a mere $6.2 billion. Internet pornography, "the crack cocaine of sexual addiction", is tragically affecting Catholic families at an alarming rate and is leaving lies, broken relationships, emptiness, and sadness in its wake. Armor of Light is a new, closed, confidential support group for men struggling with issues related to sexual integrity. It provides a Catholic focus on prayer, education, recovery, and mutual support following a 12-step format, workbook utilization, and weekly meetings. A group for the northern Columbus suburbs will be forming soon. For more information or registration, please email armoroflight354@yahoo.com.
Let us then cast off the works of darkness and put on the armor of light. Romans 13:12
