Solemnity of All Saints
Nov. 1
"Almighty ever-living God,
by whose gift we venerate in one celebration
the merits of all the Saints,
bestow on us, we pray,
through the prayers of so many intercessors,
an abundance of the reconciliation with you
for which we earnestly long.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God,
for ever and ever."

From our Archbishop:
⁣
Dear friends,
⁣
I learned with a grateful heart this afternoon that our Holy Father’s surgery was completed successfully and that the prognosis remains highly optimistic.
⁣
I ask all people throughout the to express their love for Pope Leo through continued prayer for the intention of his health during his recovery. May God strengthen him and guide his care team through the intercession of Mary, Our Blessed Mother.

From Sunday, November 8, through Tuesday, November 10, our parish will celebrate the Forty Hours Devotion, a special time for adoration and prayer before the Blessed Sacrament, the Eucharistic host exposed in the monstrance.

Adoration will begin each day after the morning Mass, and continue all day until evening devotions, which will include the singing of Evening Prayer, a homily by Father John Kelly, and benediction.

Overnight adoration will take place in the Chapel. We will need people to commit to spending 30 minutes or more in adoration so that there is always someone praying with the Blessed Sacrament.

If you are able to commit to one or more 30-minute blocks when you are sure you will be present for adoration, please indicate by selecting your time slot(s) below. If possible, please select an empty time slot to ensure that all spots are covered.

Sign-up here: https://stchrisparish.org/forty-hours

All are welcomed to attend morning Masses and Evening Devotions. No registration is required for those events.

Please call the Parish Office if you need assistance.

What does a day in the life of a missionary actually look like? 👀
⁣
From Holy Family School to moms & young families to music and young adults, Lauren, Emily, and Gus each serve a different community in Phoenixville — but they share the same mission: meeting people where they are and walking with them toward Christ. 🤍
⁣
Sometimes evangelization looks like a Bible study. Sometimes it looks like a coffee, a concert, or simply learning someone’s name.
⁣
Because every encounter is an opportunity to build a relationship, grow in faith, and remind someone that they belong. ⛪️
⁣
📍 Welcome to the Phoenixville Hub!

Date night, community, and a little time to reconnect. 🤍💍
⁣
At the Phoenixville Hub, Cana Date Night brings couples of all ages and stages of marriage together to invest in their relationships, grow alongside other couples, and celebrate the vocation of marriage.
⁣
Whether newly married or decades in, it’s an opportunity to step away from the busyness of everyday life and be intentional about the love you share. And with free, on-site childcare, parents can enjoy the evening knowing their little ones are taken care of! ❤️
⁣
Because marriage was never meant to be lived alone.

Put all your hope in Jesus.
You yourself have nothing,
are worth nothing,
can do nothing.
He will act,
if only you abandon yourself in him.
-St. Josemaría Escrivá
