LIVING IN FAITH TOGETHER At Church of the Holy Eucharist January: Take Out Magazine Highlights
Check out the recipe for Marshmallow Bars on page 2 and talk about how families “stick” together! The back page of the magazine lists the gospel that will be read on each Sunday in January. I challenge you to read the gospel with your family at some point during the week before you come to mass. It will help you and your family to engage with the mass in a more meaningful way.

Ministry Highlight—ACTS
Prayer Corner I challenge you to continue to pray the rosary with your family this month. Maybe it is a decade of “Hail Mary” prayers with the kids before bed. Maybe you take some personal time to say the rosary by yourself before everyone in the house wakes up. Whatever you do, I guarantee that it will make you and your family more mindful this month. Have any questions or concerns about our Faith Formation or Sacrament Prep programs? Contact Donna Remaley Faith Formation Coordinator 609 268 7742 [email protected]

Eucharistic Adoration What is Eucharistic Adoration? Understood simply, Eucharistic Adoration is adoring or honoring the Eucharistic Presence of Christ. During Adoration, we watch and watch, we remain silent in His Presence and open ourselves to His graces which flow from the Eucharist. We have Eucharist Adoration every Wednesday from 9:30am to 7:30 pm in the Daily Chapel. Stop in and stay as long as you like.
