THE LIGHT IS ON FOR YOU...Wednesday , March 21
Our parish is participating in an Archdiocesan-wide reconciliation program

will be offered here at St. John from 7:00-8:00 p.m. Catholic parishes in the
Archdiocese of Baltimore will also have confessions available on these
Wednesdays and we invite you to join us here for this sacrament. If you have
been reluctant to come to the sacrament or have been away for some time or
just found it difficult to get to regularly scheduled times for confession, this is
a great opportunity to receive penance. To remind you about the parts of
confession and the Act of Contrition, take a brochure in the narthex of the
church to guide you through this renewing sacrament. Please join us—
The Light is On for You!

Dawn Tabb, Sayler Heilman and Joseph Aversa.
PLEASE NOTE: If you would like to have the name of a sick or
hospitalized loved one included in the intercessions at Sunday
Mass, please call the Parish Center. The person making the
request must be either the sick person himself/herself, or a
member of that person’s immediate family. The person’s name
will be announced for two consecutive weeks, unless a
subsequent request is made to keep the person on the list for an
