Every Friday during Lent, we pray the Stations of the Cross at 9:30 AM and 7 PM at Saint Cecilia. Through meditation and prayer, we walk with our savior on his way of suffering from the time he was condemned to death until he died and was buried. Make this devotion part of your Lenten commitment to prayer and glow and closer to Christ.

The American Heritage Girls Troop OH0056 invites all Eastside Catholics parishioners and guests to enjoy some special goodies on November 22 and November 23. The AHG troop will be hosting a Bake Sale fundraiser! All money raised will benefit the troop’s activities such as badgework, service projects, camp outs and a benevolence fund for families eager to participate in AHG. Come join us this weekend after the Saturday 3:30 pm Mass (11/22), and the Sunday 8 am and 10 am Masses (11/23) at St. Cecilia. Thank you for your support as we work together to raise Christ-centered women in our community.

As we near the middle of November, remember that this month is dedicated to the Holy Souls in Purgatory. We encourage you to commemorate and pray for all who have departed from this life, yet have not reached the eternal joys of Heaven. Your loved ones, of course, but also those who have no one to pray for them. Make personal sacrifices, offer prayers daily, and visit the faithful departed at the place of their final rest on earth. Requiem aeternam dona ei, Domine, et lux perpetua luceat ei. Requiéscat in pace. Amen

Our annual Forty Hours Exposition and Adoration will be the weekend of Sept. 12-14. There will be continuous adoration from the Opening Ceremony at the 9:00 a.m. St. Cecilia Mass on Friday, Sept. 12, until the Closing Ceremony at the 10:00 a.m. St. Cecilia Mass on Sunday, Sept. 14.  Because we must be sure to have at least one person present with Our Lord in Exposition every hour during this event, especially in the late evenings and overnights, we encourage you to consider volunteering as a Guardian Adorer for an hour or so in prayer with Him. Sign-ups can be found on the Eastside Catholics, St. Cecilia and St. Mary websites under “Events” and then clicking on “Forty Hours Devotion.” If you have any questions about signing up, you can email Jeff Icsman at [email protected].
