Calendar of Events at St. Richard's This is a calendar of planned events and is subject to change. Please check the parish bulletin for the latest information. May 2008
Children's Liturgy of the Word - Sundays At the 11:00 a.m. Mass, children are invited to come forward in the Sunday assembly after the Opening Prayer to go forth with prayer leaders to hear the stories of our faith at a level written for children. They also talk about and reflect upon what they hear Jesus saying to them in the Word, and how then to relate that to their daily life. Children return to the assembly for the Liturgy of the Eucharist. Church Cleaning Help Needed - Mondays Men and women are needed to help clean the church on Monday mornings for 45 minutes. You can work one, two, three or four Mondays a month. It's OK if you're away in the winter (or summer)! The more people who come to help, the easier it is for everyone. If interested, please call the parish office, 612-869-2426, and leave your name and phone number. Exposition/Adoration - May 2 - Adoration and exposition of the Blessed Sacrament will take place at 8:30 am and continue throughout the day. If you have not yet experienced this time of silent prayer before the Lord, you are invited to stop in anytime during the day for as long as you like. If you are unable to come but have special intentions, write them in the petition book in the chapel. We will pray for your needs. Adoration ends with evening prayer. Ensemble - May 6, 13, 20 - The Ensemble of St. Richard's is an "inter-generational" group of youth, young adult and (older) adult members. The group serves as music ministers at the 5 pm and 11 am Sunday liturgies. For more information contact Wayne at the parish office at (612) 869-2426. Choir - May 6, 13, 20 - The 9:00 am choir invites new members to join in continuing this ministry with a well-rounded choice of sacred music. It is open to young adults through senior years. A two hour rehearsal is held on Tuesdays at 7:15 pm. If you would like to talk about it see the director, Betsy Sullivan, after Mass. YACC - Youth-Adult Coordinating Committee - May 18 - The purpose of the Youth-Adult Coordinating Committee is to assist in developing in our youth a sense of what it means to be a Christian at St. Richard's. The committee acts as a sounding board where youth, adults and staff can come together to generate, respond to and adapt ideas with the objective of providing activities for our youth to strengthen their sense of identity, ownership and responsibility. This is accomplished through the planning, coordination and delivery of spiritual, social and service programs and activities. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
