News & Notes

Congratulations to the Good Shepherd Boys Junior Varsity Basketball team on winning the St. Leo the Great Boys JV Basketball Tournament the weekend of January 7, 2012.

From the Pastor

God’s house is to be a house of prayer. (Is 56:7, Mk 11:17)
Let all things be done decently and in order. (1 Cor 14:40)

At the beginning of a new year many people make resolutions that will improve their health and happiness (which often requires a change of behavior). Perhaps this would be a good time for us as a Parish Family to make some resolutions for a better Church experience. So a resolution has been prepared for each month of the year. Our goal is to be practicing all 12 resolutions by the end of the year. A complete list is enclosed with today’s bulletin.

January
A joyful presence/A joyful sound. Come to church with a prayerful attitude and an expectation of meeting Jesus. Join in singing the hymns and participate in the spoken parts of the Mass. Help the children follow along too.

Save this resolution...and we will add one each Month!
