Haiti Sister Parish – Connected for Christ

Connected For Christ

 We officially started a twinning relationship with our sister parish in Manquette, Haiti in November of 2020. By the end of the December 2020 we were able to transfer $4,000 to the parish! Your generosity is amazing. Thank you all so much. The funds we have sent are being used for general parish needs, such as AV equipment, liturgical objects for Mass, chairs for the sanctuary, supplies for their Christmas Mass, pastoral formation days for parish youth and choir, rectory bills, charitable needs of parishioners, and more. Again, thank you so much! Please keep our sister parish Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception in your prayers.

First Communion 2022
Our 2022 Precious Blood First Communicants all signed a cloth picture of our Sister Parish. It was mailed to them and they hung it for their First Communion Mass held on Sunday, May 22, 2022.


Calvary and Bethany
A day of blessing and prayer. Our sister parish has been hard at work over the past couple of months building a prayer and pilgrimage site just outside of town. Calvary and Bethany is complete. The Bishop came to celebrate and bless the site. Calvary at Bethany will serve not only as a site of prayer but in the long rum will help our sister parish become more self-supporting, as this site will draw pilgrims from the Dominican Republic. Religious articles will be able to be sold at the site in the future.

Advent Prayer Tree

During Advent we will be offering up daily prayers for our sister parish, Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception and all of Haiti. The past year has marked one of the worst humanitarian crises in in Haiti’s history. We know prayer is powerful!

Please take one Mass card ornament per family from the tree in the gathering area and pray the prayer of Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception every day of Advent. Asking special intercessions for our sister parish and the entire country of Haiti, specifically for peace, relief of suffering, and justice for the people.

 

Mass Intentions Need a last minute  gift idea? How about having a Mass said for your loved one at our sister parish in Haiti. Cards are available in the gathering area by the bulletin board.
