Here is the summary of the event

Anointing of the Sick - Baptism - Eucharist - Reconciliation - Confirmation - Matrimony - Holy Orders (Ordination to Priesthood)

Confirmation -This small group based ministry helps to prepare young people for the celebration of the Sacrament of Confirmation. Christian adult leaders walk alongside the teens on their journey through these very challenging years. Volunteering as a Confirmation leader can be very rewarding.

Mission Statement:  St. Peter's Respect Life Committee was formed in 1986 to raise awareness and encourage action on the life issues of abortion, infanticide and euthanasia. Under the direction of the Archdiocesan Respect Life program, our goals are met through efforts involving spiritual, educational, public policy and service activities.

It is called the sacrament of RECONCILIATION, because it imparts to the sinner the love of God who reconciles: "Be reconciled to God." He who lives by God's merciful love is ready to respond to the Lord's call: "Go; first be reconciled to your brother." ~ Catechism of the Catholic Church 1424

The Sacrament of MATRIMONY is "The matrimonial covenant, by which a man and a woman establish between themselves a partnership of the whole of life, is by its nature ordered toward the good of the spouses and the procreation and education of offspring; this covenant between baptized persons has been raised by Christ the Lord to the dignity of a sacrament."   ~ Catechism of the Catholic Church 1601

The EUCHARIST is "the source and summit of the Christian life." "The other sacraments, and indeed all ecclesiastical ministries and works of the apostolate, are bound up with the Eucharist and are oriented toward it. For in the blessed Eucharist is contained the whole spiritual good of the Church, namely Christ himself, our Pasch. ~ Catechism of the Catholic Church 1324

BAPTISM is the basis of the whole Christian life, the gateway to life in the Spirit, and the door which gives access to the other sacraments. Through Baptism we are freed from sin and reborn as sons of God; we become members of Christ, are incorporated into the Church and made sharers in her mission: "Baptism is the sacrament of regeneration through water and in the word." ~ Catechism of the Catholic Church 1213

"By the sacred ANOINTING OF THE SICK and the prayer of the priests the whole Church commends those who are ill to the suffering and glorified Lord, that he may raise them up and save them. And indeed she exhorts them to contribute to the good of the People of God by freely uniting themselves to the Passion and death of Christ." ~ Catechism of the Catholic Church 1499

Are you called to the Secular Franciscan Life? Would you like to give more time to God, but wonder how to do that when your life is so busy? Do you long for holiness, and feel a need for support in growing spiritually? Perhaps your heart has been moved by stories of St. Francis of Assisi, or the Peace Prayer attributed to him, and you are seeking that same holy simplicity, true peace and perfect joy?
