2020 Passion Play in Oberammergau In 1633, Southern Germany was in the grips of war, poverty, and the plague. That year when the disease reached Oberammergau the villagers prayed for deliverance and vowed to perform a passion play about the last days of Jesus forever more. Their prayers were answered and the village was saved from a continued outbreak of the plague. Nearly 400 years later the play continues. It is performed once every decade. Witness Oberammergau Passion Play 2020 which will be performed daily May 16 through October 4, 2020. For more information please contact Debra at Envoye Travel 806-788-8907 ext.2004. Debra@envoye.com

Theology on Tap
Meet from 7—8 at BierHaus Lubbock, 2009 Broadway, Lubbock. Theology on Tap is for anyone 21+ and is a casual forum where friends gather to discuss topics relevant to young adults, from a faith perspective. This summer we are discussing Catholic Social Teaching. All young adults are invited out for faith, fellowship and fun!
This week we share two more reasons.Praising God first thing in the morning is the most important thing on our daily calendar.
“First things first”, as they say. And since we’ve been blessed to be a member of this one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church, we should understand that it’s a privilege and a gift that we can make God the first and most important person in our day by worshiping Him in His temple. Plus, God asks for the first fruits of our harvest, the first tenth of all our blessings. Going to Mass is offering the first part of our day to the Lord who is the source of all our blessings. It’s the best form of Catholic stewardship.
The Mass is my ongoing spiritual formation.
One beautiful thing about the Mass is that it is so drenched in scripture. Attending Mass daily allows us to soak in God’s Word. Reading and reflecting on the daily scriptures the evening before makes the Mass seem even richer and more fulfilling. The Mass helps us get a full Catholic education in Christ — stewardship, the sacraments, the saints, and evangelization — 260 days a year. It helps us grown in the Lord a day at a time.
Holy Spirit offers daily Mass Monday through Friday beginning at 7:30 AM. Evening Masses are offered on Tuesday and Thursday at 5:45 PM. Daily Prayers are prayed 15 minutes before each Mass. A Healing Mass is offered at 6:30 PM each 4th Thursday of the month, which takes the place of the 5:45 PM Mass.Please join us.
