Many, many thanks to all who participated in our Corpus Christi Procession last Sunday. What a wonderful way for our parish families of Our Lady of Lourdes and St. Francis Borgia who make up the Catholic Family in the City of Washington, to show our faith and belief in the real presence of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist.
Happy Father’s Day! We are blessed by our fathers, grandfathers, godfathers, and all who fill the role of father for us in our lives. Today (Sunday) is also the co-parish Corpus Christi Procession. We hope to see you there!
Thank you for a wonderful celebration with Deacon Tim Reis at the 9:00 a.m. Mass last Sunday. Tim did a great job on his first day of serving as a Deacon at Mass including preaching the homily!
Congratulations to Deacon Tim Reis who was ordained a Permanent Deacon on Saturday, June 4th. All are invited to attend 9am Mass and celebrate at the reception following with Tim and his family on Sunday.
Happy Mother’s Day! On this day let us remember our Moms and all who filled that role for us. We pray for them and thank God for the love, nurturing, care, and compassion they have shown us
Congratulations to Landon Beaman and George Volmert, two 8th grade students from our Parish who were recently recognized by the Respect Life Apostolate of the Archdiocese of St. Louis for the outstanding essays they submitted as part of the Respect Life Creative Writing Contest.
Let us continue to practice what the Lord calls us to during these Lenten days with prayer, fasting, and giving alms. Monday, March 28th at 6:30 p.m., we will hold our Combined Parish Penance Service at Our Lady of Lourdes.
Thank you for your expressions of sympathy upon the death of my brother-in-law. My sister, her daughters, and my entire family thank you for your prayers and kindness.
