Pope Francis Quote, 03/10/24
The good news comes alive in us, “Every time we announce it, not by propaganda or proselytizing, but with respect and love, as the most beautiful gift to share, as the secret of joy, then Jesus dwell in us even more”. April 10, 2023 at the Vatican
Parish Council Members Needed
Consider serving our Parish by being a member of council. Commitment is to attend 10 monthly meetings throughout the year (August through June), serving on one council project and staying for three Chat with Council Coffee Hours. It’s a critical time for our Parish as we determine our collaboration with St. Patrick’s as an oratory.
If interested in serving or would like to nominate another parishioner – email cathy.g@stmalachi.org or speak to Cathy Graham, Matt Hils, William Meaney or Jeff Walters. Nominations open until April 7th, with elections beginning at the Annual Meeting on April 14th. We have 5 positions to fill.
Please pray for our Elect! 2024
Lent is the time of purification and preparation for sacraments. Please pray for our Elect: Joann Butera, Ryan Mann, and Jeff Rotheram who will receive Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist; plus Wyatt Bensken, who will receive Confirmation and Eucharist all during the Easter Vigil.
Pope Francis Quote, 03/03/24
“Here is a good resolution for Lent: cultivate open gazes, become ‘seekers of light,’ seekers of the light of Jesus, in prayer and in people”. From the Vatican

Christ Present in the Eucharist – A Synodal Process for Eucharistic Renewal starts next Sunday! Join us for our Lenten presentation, reflection in small groups, and prayer! We will invite the Spirit to renew us as we explore the Mass, what the Church teaches about how Christ is truly present, and why it makes a difference!

Each week, a new “Voices of Scripture & Tradition” Resource Page will be available. It provides the main reflection questions for the week, with scripture and doctrine related to the week’s topic. Use these pages for prayerful reflection before a session, or as a follow-up review. Bring this sheet and any prayer reflection notes to our session. There will be some Resource Pages available at the doors of the church and at the session. For Session 1, please click here: Feb-11–2024-Resource-Page-
Parish Collaboration
We want to thank the 90 people from both St. Malachi and St. Pat’s who came to our Town Hall meeting on February 21st! It was a beautiful gathering and a great opportunity to hear the Collaboration Steering Committee present on how the process is coming so far. Our next steps will be forming work groups to make recommendations to Fr. Gurnick on specific topics related to managing parish life. The 8 Work Groups will work on: Communication and Transition, Staffing and Administration, Parish Council, Finances and Budget, Liturgy and Worship, Physical Plant & Facilities, Faith Formation & Spiritual Life, and Ministries of Charity.
If you’d like to be considered for one of these working groups, please e-mail parishcollaboration44113@gmail.com. Service will require attendance at an all-day meeting March 9th and weekly meetings through June of this year. All other feedback and questions can be sent to this same e-mail address. May 11th will be the next presentation of progress to the parishes. Please keep this process in your prayers.
Pope Francis Quote, 02/25/24
The Holy Spirit, who has wholly animated the life and mystery of Jesus is the same spirit who today guides Christian existence, the existence of men and women who call themselves and want to be Christians. But remember this: pray often to the Holy Spirit, that he helps us, give us strength, give us inspiration and enable us to go forward.
