“Growing in awareness of Jesus’ presence in daily life lies at the heart of moving from knowing about Jesus to knowing Him. For centuries Christians have befitted from the help of an accompanier to help them discern His presence.” Rev Geoff Read
This course is for couples preparing for marriage: it’s not about preparing you for the ceremony itself, but for the rest of your married life together. These days have been both popular and highly rated; input is given by trained Marriage Preparation presenters, and as couples you have an opportunity also to share your own experience of life together.
The course is for Catholic and non-Catholic partners.
Exceptionally (due to scheduling issues, for example) you can take the course after your church wedding. To cover costs, we ask €100 from each couple; if this is beyond your means, no problem — again, just get in touch. Refreshments and lunch are provided.
We are very sorry to announce that the charity auction scheduled for next Saturday (2/3/2019) is cancelled.
Unfortunately, we did not receive enough reservations to make it viable. As you can imagine a certain number of people is required to make the auction possible and despite our best attempts we fell short of this number.
We are very sorry that the notice is short but as you can imagine we were hoping for new reservations and the decision to cancel was a difficult one. We will take some time now to reflect on whether we try again later in the year to organise a new charity auction (we still have many great lots) or find a different method to raise funds for the truly excellent cause that is IOP. Perhaps you have some ideas? If so we would be delighted to hear from you.
Please accept our apologies for this inconvenience.
Yours sincerely,
Sam and the IOP/Sunflower team.
If you are in your 20s-30s and would like to find out more about this new group, please come along to the Garden Room after 11:15 Mass this Sunday, 3 March, or contact the parish office: parish@catholic.lu
