Downstairs in the Madden Center

~Patti Schwartz, Director News from Faith Formation: In our Sunday

classes we continue to study “The Creed.” A

Creed is an authoritative summary of Christian-

ity‘s basic beliefs. The word Creed comes from

the Latin word “credo”- literally translated, “I

believe!“ In our daily lives with love in our hearts, we believe and

express our love with our words and deeds. Our students will

review: if we live with integrity, and there is unity of our thoughts,

words, and deeds - then our hearts and hands are voices. We say

what we mean, and we do as we say. We “walk the talk”. Looking

ahead, we will be having our May crowning on Sunday May 6th

during our children’s Liturgy. Please join us as we honor our

Blessed Mother! Have a blessed week!

“Children, let us love not in word or speech

but in deed and truth.” - 1 JOHN 3:18

Regarding our Catholic faith, do you “walk the talk?” Do your actions reflect what it means to

be a good disciple? Are you an active participant at Sunday Mass? Are you joyful when participating in parish ministry? Do you give gratefully and generously with your financial sup-port to your parish and other Church needs? If not, it’s not too

late to start. – USCCB Office of Stewardship

If you remain in me {keep my commands} and my words remain in you, ask for whatever you

want and it will be done for you, (Jn. 15:7).

May 6th Crowning of Mary will be at the 10:30 am Mass.
