The rosary is very pleasing to our Mother in heaven. The Rosary surely reaches the motherly heart of Mary and moves her to obtain abundant graces for us. Your Rosary is like a ladder that you climb, drawing you closer to our Lady, which means finding Christ. The Rosary is being said at the Grotto every Thursday in October at 5 pm. Please join us.

The early Church adopted a practice called “divine reading” or, in Latin, lectio divina. It is a simple way of prayerfully reading the Bible and has five movements: Prepare, Read, Reflect, Respond, and Rest.

The Diocese of Biloxi is redefining the way new Christians are brought into the Church. Bishop Kihneman writes that in the past we have used a classroom model for new Catholics, but “what is proving to be much more effective is the development of a faith formation plan for each person. . . . Prayer, worship, parish life and Sunday Mass become the real curriculum.”

A brief note to say thanks a million for your wonderful generosity supporting our ministry to the Ukrainian people now living among us here in Newbridge County Galway

Thank ya’ll for joining us in saying the rosary at the Grotto. It was beautiful sitting under the oaks, looking at beautiful skies, and praying to our Blessed Mother. Because the heat is so oppressive and the thunderstorms so unpredictable, the decision was made to postpone our rosary until October, the month of the Holy Rosary.

wishes to reach out and personally thank our St. Thomas Catholic Church Parish Family for your commitment to being our top donors of our ongoing Fifth Sunday Collections.
