Fr. Joe Bruce Comming to Anoint the Sick
Tuesday 26 Feb Mass for Healing for Persons with Disabilities with Fr. Joseph Bruce. It begins at 7:00 pm in St Stephen parish's Main Church ( 251 Concord Street > Rte 126 ) in downtown Framingham.
The celebrant and homilist will be Father Joseph Bruce from the diocese of Providence, RI who will use both voice and sign. We are pleased that Deaf Catholic Ministries will be sending an interpreter as well. Sr. Ursula Tisdall, OSF, who works in the Pastoral Care office of Framingham Union Hospital will offer some words for us.
There will be opportunities offered for both Sacramental Anointing of the Sick and for intercessory prayer with our charismatic prayer teams.
Looking forward,
Fr. St. Martin

Confirmation Student Event in the Works
Good Students preparing for Confirmation and their Parents,
I invite and encourage the confirmation students and their parents who I teach at Sacred Heart to travel with our new catechumen, James Jones, to the cathedral as a kind of confirmation field trip on Feb. 10th. I have informed the deaf catholic community as well as the parish of Sacred Heart in General about it and would like to make it part of the confirmation program but could use some help contacting everybody, keeping track of the thing, and so fourth.
We would learn so much by going.
We could have a tour of the cathedral, meet the Bishop, and see the rite of election. All the adults preparing for Baptism travel from far and wide. It is not Mass but it is a time of prayer and calling. At the 10:30 a.m. Mass at Sacred Heart on that day there will be a little rite of sending of the our Catechumen in the Mass.
What is a Catechumen? What is the RCIA? What is the rite of Election? What is a diocese, a Bishop, a Cathedral?
All these would come into clearer focus if we can swing going to the rite.
There is more information about time and place on the calendar under Masses and Events on http://www.deafcatholic.org
Let me know if you can go. My office budget has within at this point enough money so that we can rent a buss. There will be many parishes who rent buses and bring big groups for this event and it is quite an exciting thing to see the cathedral so full.
Sincerely,
Fr. St. Martin
