SUNDAY’S REFLECTION: Do No Harm                                        WEDDING BANNS
     We listen quite a while before we get to the “punch line” of      Mar. 2  Katie Tran & Quynh Tran

do, David will not harm the anointed one of the Lord. We, of           Mar. 16 Vivian Nguyen & Nam Tran

STATIONS OF THE CROSS DURING LENT
Dear ministry leaders and participants,

As you know, we conduct a Stations of the Cross service every Friday
during Lent at 6:30pm in English. We have been doing this for many
years, and would like to try something different this year. We would
like to offer you and those in your ministry the opportunity to lead one
or more of those Friday evening services. The Friday dates are March
8, 15, 22 and 29, April 5 and 12.

Our needs are simple. We are looking for one, two or three people to
lead each service. Speaking into a microphone is involved. All materi-
als will be provided. If you would like to be creative and try something
new or different, let’s discuss it.

If you would like to lead a service or if you have questions, please send
Deacon Phil an email at pgoodman823@gmail.com. Feel free to for-
ward this email to someone you think may be interested in participat-
ing. Thank you in advance. May God bless you and your ministries.

NOTE FROM OUR ADMINSTRATOR
                                                          Dear Holy Spirit Church Family,

                                                          Our Parish is undergoing some financial and
                                                          structural evaluation/re-organization. Our
                                                          initial discovery lead us to recognize that our
                                                          assigned priests are not celebrating enough
                                                          Masses and the rotations are limited. Also, our
                                                          Sunday collection has decreased over the
                                                          months which has affected our operational
                                                          expenses.

                                                          Due to these reasons, starting the month of
                                                          March, Fr. Robert Hodges will no longer be
                                                          helping our Parish. We absolutely love Fr.
                                                          Robert’s spirit of service especially in his
                                                          well-prepared homilies. We hope you will
                                                          understand the difficulty of our decision and
