General Announcements 

Seasons of Hope sessions for the bereaved begin on March 28 in Greensburg

If you’re in need of consolation after losing a loved one, come to Seasons of Hope, a Christ‐centered faith sharing group, at St. Mary Parish, 208 S. East Street, in Greensburg, in the parish’s Education Center.

The sessions occur on six consecutive Mondays from 6:30-8:30 p.m. from March 28 through May 2.

To register, call the parish office at 812‐663‐8427 and leave your name and phone number. A member of the Bereavement Ministry Team will return your call.

 

Friars at Mount St. Francis invite all to attend special event on April 3

The Conventual Franciscan Friars at Mount St. Francis are celebrating 40 years of offering retreats by hosting a special event called “Door’s Open. Coffee’s On.” The event will be held at their retreat center, 101 St. Anthony Drive, in Mt. St. Francis, from 2-4 p.m. on Divine Mercy Sunday, April 3.

During that time, people of all faiths are welcome to come to the Mount and have a cup of coffee or hike with a friar and have a heart-to-heart talk. The event is designed to encourage those who have drifted away from the Church, or have spiritual questions regardless of faith background. It is intended to be a path to healing, allowing those who attend to re-connect with God.

The chapel will be open for prayer, with prayer partners available to pray for those talking with a friar if desired.

Information about local resources—such as Catholic Charities, foodbanks, St. Elizabeth Home, pregnancy resources and more—will be available as a way to reach out in mercy to the local community.

For more information, log on to MountSaintFrancis.org or call 812-923-8817.
