Sunday, March 5-Tuesday, March 7 2023 at 6:30 pm  in the church.  All ages are welcome.

As early as the 3rd century, Christians started to sign themselves with a cross.  Eighteen centuries later, we continue the practice of making the sign of the cross when we start to pray, when we celebrate the sacraments, and when we enter a church.  Done so often and usually out of habit, has this ancient gesture lost its meaning for us?
Over three nights, Fr. Albert Haase, OFM, will lead us in a parish mission entitled Signed and Sealed with the Cross.  We will explore the identity of our God proclaimed in the ancient gesture of being signed with a cross.  We will also explre the challenges and responsibilitieswe accept when we seal our lives with the sign of our salvation.
