She Shall Be Called Woman
To truly understand the way the Lord views femininity is to live as one who is fully alive. In a world that often speaks in cliches and labels, God desires to reveal who He is through a greater understanding of who we are. This season will not only unpack the wealth of celebration of what Saint John Paul II called “The Feminine Genius” but will also give real advice on how to combat the mental, emotional, and spiritual challenges we, as women, face every day.
Join us Tuesdays from 10:30am - 12:00pm in JPG Hall for our “She Shall Be Called Woman” Meetings! Women of ALL ages are welcome!

Life Chain Rally
Sunday, October 5
1:00 - 2:30pm @ the intersection of Squirrel and Walton
——
St. John Fisher will be joining thousands of pro-lifers across the state in the annual Life Chain Rally by holding signs on the street that say: Abortion Kills Children, Abortion Hurts Women, Pray to End Abortion, Life – The First Inalienable Right, Adoption – The Loving Option.
This event will provide a visual statement of solidarity by our local community that abortion is grievously wrong and that we are opposed to the killing of preborn children. It is a national tragedy that over 63,000,000 babies have been legally killed by abortion since 1973 in the United States.
LIFE CHAIN is sponsored by Right to Life - LIFESPAN.
Coffee & Donuts
Join us each first Sunday of the month following the 10:00am Holy Mass for fellowship over coffee and donuts in the parish hall!
