+++++++++++++++++++++++++
Lord, I know how much you love me. It’s
hard for me to feel it sometimes, but I
know your love is always with me. Help me
to use your love as a way to persevere in
my Lenten intentions. I am weak, but I
know with your help, I can use these small
sacrifices in my life to draw closer to you.
Lord, let everything I do this day and in this
season of Lent come from you, be inspired
by you. I long to be closer to you. Help me
to remember that nothing is important in
my life unless it glorifies you in some way.
Heal me, Lord, and help me to find you in
the darkness of my life. Let me reach out in
this darkness and feel your hand and love
there to guide me.
No flowers are allowed during Lent in
the church or chapel.

Adult Ministry and Faith formation:
Because Our Faith is too rich and beautiful to have ever learned it
All…Contact Heidi Clark, Director of Adult Ministry, 281.333.3891, Ext. 328 or [email protected]
Adult faith formation at St. Paul the Apostle Catholic Church is centered around the understanding that living
“The Way” taught by Jesus Christ is a life-long, evolving journey, involving both effort and decision. To enable
adults to explore the faith and deepen their knowledge of God’s Word, we provide many opportunities to
come together in a learning environment. As a diverse community with a small parish feel, we know it is
important to walk that journey with others and to share what we have learned along the way.
Can You Defend Your Faith?
Join the Ladies Lunch Bunch
Spouses, friends, coworkers, adult children,
rebellious teens, in-laws, sometimes even
strangers put us in a position of needing to
defend what we believe. It is not unusual to
find it hard to put into words what is so
personal and yet so profound. If you find yourself struggling
to articulate your faith, we are once again offering a program
called Symbolon that promises to help you grow in your faith
and know it more deeply than ever before. Symbolon takes
participants on a journey into the timeless beauty and truths of
the Catholic faith—all while revealing God’s incredible love
for us as expressed in the story of salvation. The series is
being offered on Thursday afternoons at 2 PM in Room 1
beginning this week on Thursday, February 26. The only cost
involved is $20 for the workbook.
Ladies of the parish are invited to join the
St. Paul's Over 50 Lunch Bunch on
Wednesday, March 11, at Angelo's Pizza
and Pasta, 400 West Bay Area Blvd,
Webster 77598, at 12:30 PM. If you do not
receive a phone call, you may make a reservation by calling
281.474.3373. This group (Silver Lining) meets on the second
Wednesday of every month. We look forward to having some
new faces join us for friendly conversation and delicious food.
Women’s ACTS Retreat
Registrations are being accepted for the next
women’s ACTS retreat set to take place the
weekend of April 9-12. Contact Amy Morris for
information: [email protected].
Couples, Do You Need a Weekend
Away?
“This is the time of fulfillment. The
kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and
believe in the Gospel.” Allow God to work
and move in your marriage relationship.
The next Worldwide Marriage Encounter weekends are April
17-19 and June 19-21. These are wonderful weekends away
from it all where you get to focus on each other and the love
you share. Register early to reserve a spot. Contact Brian and
Tina Little at 281.773.4014 or go online to houstonme.org.
Gabriel Project Needs
Volunteers/Donations
Our Gabriel Project ministry exists to
support any mother who is experiencing a
crisis in her pregnancy. Contact B
Rodriguez at [email protected] for more
information. Currently, our program is in great need of infant
clothing for boys and girls in addition to disposable diapers for
newborns and babies up to 20 lbs. Drop items off at the
Welcome Center.
Catholic Prayer is Next Adult
Catechism Topic: March 10
The Catechism reminds us that Jesus asks us
to believe in order to pray and to pray in
order to believe. There is a complementarity
in which knowing and loving God support
each other. But how? Find out by attending our next adult
catechism program set for Tuesday, March 10, at 7:30 PM in
Room 10. Discussions are facilitated by author, teacher and
theologian, Julie Dienno-Demarest. Adult catechism sessions
stand independently of one another; attend as often as you
like. They are open to anyone interested in learning more
about our faith. If you can’t attend this session, mark your
calendar for the next one set for Tuesday, March 24: The
Depth and Beauty of the Our Father.
Do you want to be Catholic?
The process of becoming a Catholic is
called the RCIA, the Rite of Christian
Initiation of Adults. The RCIA is a process
of coming to know Jesus Christ on a
personal level and growing in readiness and commitment to be
part of the Catholic Christian community. Find out more by
contacting Heidi Clark at [email protected].
