Please support our Parish during this difficult time. |
A Message from Fr Dave About the Mask Mandate:
|
I would like to invite you all to pray together intentionally for the collaborative efforts of Our Lady of Pompeii and St Teresa of Calcutta Parishes. Please set an alarm for 4:13 and pray the Come, Holy Spirit prayer. Why 4:13? Because April 13 (4/13) is the date Bishop Mike appointed me pastor of these two parishes and what set us on this path of collaboration. Thank you for your faith. I can't wait to see what God has in store for all of us. Come, Holy Spirit!
AMDG,
Fr Dave

MONTH OF THE HOLY NAME OF JESUS
The month of January is traditionally dedicated to the Holy Name of Jesus. After the Blessed Virgin Mary conceived by the Holy Spirit, the angel Gabriel appeared to St. Joseph and told him that the Child’s name should be called Jesus, meaning “God Saves.” According to Jewish law, on the 8th day after his birth a male child was to be circumcised, receive his name, and become a full member of God’s covenant people. According to the old Roman liturgical calendar, the Feast of the Circumcision of Jesus was celebrated on January 1st, eight days after Christmas, the same day that He was given His sacred name. Currently we celebrate the Solemnity of the Mother of God on January 1st and honor the Holy Name of Jesus on January 3rd. For Catholics, Jesus’ sacred name is the object of a special devotion symbolized by the monogram “IHS,” (sometimes called a Christogram), which is the first three letters of the Greek spelling of His name.
