ELIJAH CUP - PRAYING FOR VOCATIONS

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Our parish continues to pray for vocations to the priesthood and religious life using the “Elijah Cup” as a way of focusing our attention.  One family or group is presented the Cup at Mass, takes it home, places it in a special place and prays daily for vocations.

This Sat. Maria Virgen Rosado  will receive the cup at the 7 pm Mass

On 7/25, Gloria & Jaime Almazan will receive at it at the 7:30 am Mass.

Please consider participating in the Elijah Cup prayers.

Blessings are there - for vocations and for you.
