First Monthly Mass in Honor of St. Jude celebrated on Wednesday

Fr. Sheaffer celebrating the Mass in honor of St. Jude on Wednesday, Janaury 8, 2014

Our first Monthly Mass in honor of St. Jude was celebrated this past Wednesday evening at 7 o'clock at St. Mary's Church in Lee. Fr. Sheaffer celebrated the Mass with about 40 people in attendance. The Mass included music by Sandy Cummings and the choir and special prayers to St. Jude, the patron saint of "hopeless cases and of things despaired of."

Fr. Sheaffer's homily focused on the importance of hope when all else seems absent or lost and how God is always present to us in such times.

The Mass in honor of St. Jude will be celebrated on the first Wednesday of each month at 7:00 PM. If there is a holy day, the Mass will be celebrated on the following Wednesday. Our next Mass will be celebrated on February 5th. We hope you can join us!
