A Note From
Rev. Joe Koyickal
A Lenten Evening of Healing and Hope
A Mass and prayer for Healing and Sacrament of the Sick
As Part of our Lenten journey back home to the Father, we will celebrate a special Mass and pray for healing with the opportunity to receive the Sacrament of the Anointing of the sick, on Tuesday, March 10th at 6.00 PM, with a guided adoration by me from 5-6 PM at Ss. Simon and Jude parish. All from the Tri-parish Community are invited to join this special opportunity for renewal.
In this holy season of Lent, we are invited not only to repent and sacrifice, but also to allow the Lord to heal what is wounded within us, physically, emotionally and spiritually. Lent is a journey back to the Father and our loving Father desires restoration, peace, and renewal for His children. So, I warmly encourage you to join and be spiritually renewed and reconciled as we prepare for the joy of Easter.
The evening will begin with one hour of guided Eucharistic Adoration, offering quiet time for personal prayer and reflection before our Lord. Confessions will be available during this time. A Priest from outside will be available. It will be an opportunity to place our burdens at the feet of Jesus and seek His mercy.
During the Mass, those who are seriously ill, suffering from chronic conditions, weakened by age, or preparing for serious surgery may receive the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick. Through this sacrament, Christ strengthens us, forgives sins, grants peace, and unites us more closely to His saving Cross. Sometimes He grants physical healing; but always He grants spiritual grace.
Even if you are not receiving Anointing, I encourage you to come and pray for others. Let us support one another as a parish family, carrying each other in faith just as the friends carried the paralytic to Jesus (Mark 2:1-12).
May this Lenten evening be a moment of grace, healing, and renewed trust in Christ, our Divine Physician.
Blessings of Peace & Joy Always!
Fr. Joe
