EUCHARISTIC ADORATION
Friday 9am - 6pm
Divine Mercy Chaplet at 3:00pm
Consider inviting a friend, neighbor or coworker to Eucharistic Adoration. Also, consider becoming a guardian of the Blessed Sacrament for an hour on Fridays. A few minutes of silence in the presence of Jesus is more powerful than anything else we can do to help someone who is hurting. Do you truly believe this?
For the faithfully departed. Eternal rest grant unto them O’Lord, let the perpetual light shine upon them, Imogene F. Delape, Le Thi Suu and all those who lost their lives to
covid-19 .….AMEN.
PRAYER LIST UPDATE Periodically we update our prayer list, removing names if we have no recent update on that person. Names may be placed on the list by a family member or by others who have the person’s permission to add the name. You may call or email the church office to notify of any changes to be made.
5th Sunday in
ASH WEDNESDAY There will be four Masses: 8:00am, Noon, 6:00pm, and 8:00pm in Spanish. Ashes will be distributed in a uniform way this year in light of the pandemic.
Instead of having ashes placed on our foreheads, it will be sprinkled on our heads as we slightly bow. This will be a different experience for many of us, but it shouldn’t distract us from the essence of Ash Wednesday.
WE NEED YOUR HELP! As we increase the total number of people who can attend the Masses, by opening the chapel and parish hall as the overflow. We are in need of volunteers to greet, usher and run the com-puter/projector for the 10:45am Mass, please help. Please contact Fran Hopkins at 931-265-4822 or you may reach out to any of the head ushers. Thank you.
STATIONS OF THE CROSS On Fridays during Lent, we’ll pray the Stations of the Cross. We'll begin on Fri-day, February 19 in the Church at 6:00pm. The Stations will also be
livestreamed, so that you may experience walking with Jesus.

Las Hijas de Isabella patrocinarán el Baby Shower parroquial durante todo el mes de Febrero para apoyar al Centro de Embarazo de Cookeville. Ha-bra una caja/canasta en la entrada de la Capilla para recolectar artículos nuevos para bebés.
MIÉRCOLES DE CENIZA Habrá cuatro Misas: 8:00 am, Mediodía, 6:00pm y 8:00 pm en Español. Las cenizas se dis-tribuirán de manera uniforme este año a la luz de la pandemia. En lugar de que nos pongan
cenizas en la frente, las cenizas se esparcirán sobre nuestras cabezas mientras nos inclinamos levemente. Esta será una experiencia diferente para muchos de nosotros, pero no debería distraernos de la esencia del Miércoles de Ceniza.
