ST. JUDE CATHOLIC COMMUNITY    PAGE SEVEN   APRIL 23, 2000 

HOLY YEAR DOOR IN YOUR HOME
To Remind You to Open the Doors of your
Hearts to Christ?

Pope John Paul II has issued a Call and a Challenge that each individual "Open Wide the Doors to Christ" --- the doors of our hearts and minds and souls.    We can accomplish this by becoming reconciled with ourselves;  by reconciling with family members with whom we live;  by reconciling with those at work or school with whom we spend a lot of time;  by reconciling and forgiving anyone who has offended or hurt us;  and by reconciling with any we have hurt or offended.

CARE-GIVERS
"Respite & Renewal"


"Respite & Renewal" is a wonderful program designed to offer Care-Givers support.

We all become a Care Giver at some time during our lives.    When we become a parent of an emotionally and/or physically disabled child; or we have elderly parents or relatives to care for;   or we are involved in many bereavement or detention or other ministries that drain us even as we serve.   From time to time we need a
"Respite" and we need to be "Renewed".     

This group meets every other Sunday afternoon in Rooms 3 & 4 of the Parish Hall from 1:15 to 3:00 p.m.     Next gathering will be next Sunday afternoon April 30th.     No dues!     No fees!     Just sharing and support and love.     

For more information, please contact Margaret Pontius Evenings Only at 818 - 706 - 1842

YOUR JUBILEE DOOR


We have been encouraged by our Holy Father to mark "a" door in our homes, schools, parishes, and even our offices with a Door Hanger stating "Open Wide the Doors to Christ."      There are packets in our Parish Pastoral Office for making a Jubilee Door in your home.

SLEEPING BAGS, BLANKETS
& MEN'S SANDALS


Dolores Mission in East Los Angeles still has a real need for sleeping bags and blankets.    Also needed are men's shower sandals.

If you can help, please bring your donations to the Parish Pastoral Office.    Louise Brennan will make sure these items get to Dolores Mission as soon as possible.

LITURGY OF HOURS


One and all are encouraged to join in praying Morning Prayer (Lauds) each morning at 7:45 a.m.     You are also invited to join in praying Daytime Prayer before Noon Mass at 11:50 a.m. followed by the "Regina Caeli" during the Eastertime.

BIBLE STUDY - Sunday to Sunday


Please come join us in preparing for next Sunday's Mass.     We meet to learn about and discuss the Readings for the upcoming Sunday Liturgy.    Each week we watch a 20 minute video, stopping the tape at appropriate moments to discuss the material presented.   We enjoy lively conversation, faith sharing moments, and good Christian fellowship, as we learn more about the Bible and thereby enable ourselves to be more fully prepared to celebrate next Sunday's Mass.

Tuesday mornings 9:00 to 10:00 a.m. in Room 7.       This week we will do the
"Second Sunday of Easter" (B)."    All are welcome!   Come prepare for next Sunday's Mass!   No preparation!     No homework!
