Eucharist distribution now includes the option of receiving both the body and blood by Intinction (dipping) of the host into the wine. If you receive this option, you must receive it on the tongue. It is not allowed to receive this form in the hand. If you wish to continue to receive only the body (host) then hold your hands open in front of you. If you hold your hands closed in prayer, we will assume that you wish to receive the intincted host on your tongue.

The Evangelization Commission is sponsoring a fall discussion group to explore the value of our faith through the video series of Jesus and the Dead Sea Scrolls. This series is based on the book Jesus and the Dead Sea Scrolls by Dr. John Bergsma where he uses the scrolls as a window to bring new light to Jesus and the Jewish life, to help us reimagine the history of our faith, and to resurrect its value in our lives.

The 8-week series began the week of September 8, but you can join anytime. Participants have a choice to attend in person on Mondays in Rosary Hall from 11:00 am – noon or by Zoom on Wednesday evenings from 7:00 – 7:40 pm. Please email evangelization4olr@gmail.com for more information.

The Spanish Committee invites everyone to the 26th Annual Spanish Festival on September 14 to help us celebrate the anniversary of the first Spanish mass at Our Lady of the Rosary.

The tickets are $10 each for a chance of winning either $500, $300, or $200 cash! We are accepting donations for the festival such as food, water, and/or paper products. Thank you for your support!

OLR Youth members invite children to participate in a mini soccer tournament the afternoon of the Hispanic Festival on September 14. Please help support this activity by donating $10 gift cards (Walmart, Chick-fil-A, McDonalds, etc.) for use as prizes. A cash donation would also allow us to purchase cards. A donation box is available in the Narthex. Thank you for supporting our OLR Youth teens.
