Holy Redeemer Ministry Fair A family fun event for all generations!

September 9th & 10th

Guess what? We were created to desire Him. If you feel like you are missing

something or yearning for more in your life, it is probably Him! Come to the

Ministry Fair and find a place to serve and receive blessings from Him alone.

He has hidden heaven in our hearts and our yearning for Him is a “form of homesickness.” There are 36 ministries

here at Holy Redeemer so there is a place for you and your GOD given gifts! Everyone in our parish is invited to

attend our Ministry Fair!

Part-time DRE Position Available

Our parish is in need of a new Director of Religious Education.

If interested in applying for this part-time position,

please contact the office for more information.

Holy Redeemer provides a nursery every Sunday during the 10:30 a.m. Mass. We welcome children ages 1 to 3.

It Is Good That We Are

God in all his glory dwells within the hearts of the faithful. He comes to us in the Eucharist at each and every Mass-his glory is veiled, but it is still fully present. This is a great and beautiful mystery of our faith. Peter, James and John were Jesus’ most intimate friends. They had traveled with him, learned from him, ate with him and laughed with him for three years. But on the mountaintop they witnessed something totally beyond their years of experience with Jesus. Peter may not have fully understood what he witnessed and heard at the Transfiguration, but he did recognize the importance of being in Jesus’ presence. Ask God if there are any areas in your life where something is getting in the way of simply being present with him. Surrender those obstacles to God in prayer. Each day this week, try to be more aware of God’s glorious presence with you.

The Transfiguration of the Lord “The mystery of the Transfiguration hints at the restoration in the age to come. For in the same way that his face blazed like the sun, while his garments became white as light, in the same way he will come from heaven like lightening, with power and great glory to judge the universe. As Peter, James and John were with him on the holy mountain, so the elect will be with him in the kingdom of heaven, enjoying his ineffable manifestation as God and inexpressible joy. Who is adequate for all this? Who is worthy to attain that joy? Who else but one whose way of life is pure and undefiled?”

A Servant of God is one whose life and works are being considered for official recognition by the Pope and the Catholic Church as a saint in Heaven. The term Servant of God is used in the first of the four steps in the canonization process. The next step is being declared Venerable, upon a decree of heroism or martyrdom by the honored; followed by beatification, with the title of Blessed; after the confirmation of miracles resulting from the intercession of the honored, the final step is canonization, where the honored would receive the title of Saint. The process for canonization is under the jurisdiction of the Congregation for the Causes of Saints.
