Good Friday Reflections

Holy Week CrossDespite Good Friday’s central role in the heart of Christianity, attendance at services remains low. All Knights are encouraged to participate in Good Friday events. By our involvement in these services, and other Easter Season activities, Knights can realize positive spiritual rewards as well as set an example for the Parish community..We have posted a Good Friday Reflection reading to this website for you to download, read, and share with others.  On Good Friday, March 29, Our Lady of Mt. Carmel will offer the Chaplet of Divine Mercy at 2:30pm, Stations of the Cross at 3:00pm, and a Commemoration of Our Lord’s Passion at 7:00pm.  Please join us!

Baby Bottle Drive

The weekend of March 2 & 3, our Knights of Columbus Council is kicking off a baby bottle fundraising drive for Aid to Women Center. Aid to Women Center is a Catholic, Pro-Life Pregnancy Center that provides compassionate medical care, counseling, education, resources, and material assistance to women in need. They currently serve 200+ women per week in their three local Centers. Please pick up one of their baby bottles after Mass… fill it with a check, cash, or coins… and return it to one of their collection bassinets before the weekend Masses on March 16th & 17th. A representative is onsite to accept debit & credit card donations. Checks should be made out to Aid to Women Center. Thank you for your support of this worthy organization! Additional information may be found in this flyer.
