Marian Pilgrimage throughout the Archdiocese

 


As part of its bicentennial planning for 2021, the Archdiocese of Cincinnati's office of evangelization is sponsoring a one-of-a-kind event: a walking pilgrimage throughout the 19 counties of the Archdiocese, with pilgrims carrying a traveling statue to highlight the beauty and power of the Blessed Virgin Mary in bringing many people to Christ.

You can find out more at the diocesan website, including the timing and the route.  (It's easy to remember: Mary2021.org) 

It will come closest to the South Clermont Catholic Region parishes on June 9th, 10th, and 11th, when there are events at Holy Trinity, Batavia; St. Bernadette, Amelia; and Mt. St. Mary's Seminary in Mt. Washington.  See the route page for details -- and click on Items 26, 27, or 28. 

I encourage all parishioners to check this out as a way of honoring Our Lady and spiritually preparing for the bicentennial celebration of the Archdiocese on June 19th.

Thanks for your generosity

Image
 UPDATED: 22 January  I'm a little belated in posting this, but just wanted to thank all of our parishioners who have been so generous with their time and financial resources to engage in the works of mercy -- such as feeding the hungry.  In partnership with St. Vincent de Paul and New Richmond Area Ministries (NRAM), we have been continuing our ongoing efforts to feed the hungry through our food pantries, stationary and mobile, on an ongoing basis.  Each year, we also try to remember our families in need for the year-end holidays of Thanksgiving and Christmas. For instance, on the St. Mary side, last November 24th we provided 20 Thanksgiving dinner baskets to needy families in the Bethel area.   On December 22nd, we provided 20 Christmas Dinner baskets to needy families as well. On the St. Peter side, together with the NRAM, o n November 20th, 90 boxes of food for a Thanksgiving Dinner were assembled at St. Peter's and then passed out the next day to the needy of New Richmond.
