I remind you that on Wednesday, April 6, at 7:00 P.M., we will be celebrating our annual Lenten Penance Service in the lower church. There will be several priests with us that evening to bestow Christ’s mercy and forgiveness in the Sacrament of Reconciliation.
To take the Disciple Maker Index survey, please use the link below: https://www.catholicleaders.org/phila-dmi PLEASE NOTE: When you open the link you will see a list of all the parishes in the Archdiocese. Please select our parish (Saint Timothy, Philadelphia) to complete the Disciple Maker Index survey.
I think it is especially significant that we are honoring Saint Joseph and asking his intercession while our world is being torn apart by this terrible conflict in Ukraine. We are desperately in need of God’s help, and Saint Joseph, the great intercessor, will certainly hear our prayers and plead with God on our behalf. Joseph is a powerful saint, which is why we go to him with many different needs always.
Each diocese throughout the world will carry out the Synodal Process in a way that best responds to their local circumstances. In the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, we are working with Catholic Leadership Institute to implement the Disciple Maker Index (DMI) survey at every parish in the Archdiocese from March 2 to April 4, 2022.
