Beyond the Moon and Stars

BEYOND THE MOON AND STARS: MY LIGHT SHINES ON

Beyond the Moon and Stars: My Light Shines On is a four-part series created for National Catholic Register readers. Each one-hour session invites participants to reflect on our beliefs, and how those beliefs inform the planning and decisions we make at end of life. These are things we often don’t speak of: How do I want to be remembered? How should I think about my funeral? How will I communicate what matters to me? How will I care for my family? 

God gave each of us a unique light. That light is not put out when we die; it is not given to someone else. The light shines on. How will the unique light that God has given me shine on after I am gone?

Mary, the Mother Each of us Needs

When Jesus gave Mary to us as our Mother, he gave her as a powerful intercessor, a source of comfort, a model for our lives, a beacon of hope, and more. Mary, like all mothers, sees what we need and fills those needs. Who is Mary to you? Click the button below to visit St. James Cathedral, Seattle, and read who Mary is to the parishioners there. Maybe take some time to talk to your family as we close out the month of May and discuss who Mary is to each of you.

We also invite you to pray the Rosary (Glorious Mysteries) with Bishop Barron’s video below.

With a Father’s Heart

“WITH A FATHER’S HEART: that is how Joseph loved Jesus, whom all four Gospels refer to as “the son of Joseph””.

This opening line from Pope Francis’ Apostolic Letter, Patris Corde, released on December 8, 2020 to mark the opening of a Year of St. Joseph, sets the tone for the entire letter. In Patris Corde, we hear that, “St. Joseph reminds us that those who appear hidden or in the shadows can play an incomparable role in the history of salvation.”

You are invited to join us on Tuesday, May 25th at 7 P.M. for a 90-minute Zoom webinar (by phone or internet) to discover more about the Patron Saint of both the Catholic Church and Canada. Presented by Monsignor Murray J. Kroetsch (PH, VG) and Mrs. Teresa Hartnett (M.R.E.).
