Five First Saturdays Devotion In Reparation to the Immaculate Heart of Mary
The Colorado Springs Order of Malta invites you to First Saturday Devotions to Mary. On the first Saturday of each month (beginning November 7), the devotion will begin with a rosary at 8:40am, followed by 9am Mass celebrated by a Chaplain of the Order of Malta. All parishioners in the diocese are invited to attend. During these most troubled times in our country, prayer, fasting and penance are our recommended weapons against evil. Our Lady of Fatima’s message is just as important today as when she first appeared back in 1917. We encourage you to please come and pray with us for peace to combat the violence and mayhem in our country and in the world. Some excerpts from The Five First Saturdays Devotion pamphlet by Fr. Donald Calloway, MIC, may be found here. Special prayer request from Bishop Sheridan
"May I ask you to commit to praying the rosary every day until November 3, asking Our Lady’s intercession that the best men and women be elected to public office." 40 Days for Life
The Fall 40 Days for Life effort begins on Wednesday, September 23. Throughout the 26 years of this national campaign, 107 abortion centers have closed and 17,226 babies are known to have been saved from abortion. In the Pikes Peak area, prayer warriors will peacefully pray 24/7 outside Planned Parenthood (3480 Centennial Blvd.). If you can offer up 1-2 hours of your week to be a witness for life, click here to sign up or for more information. Make sure you always have a partner there with you. If you would like to be a 'Barnabas Buddy,' praying either from home/work or in Adoration in our beautiful chapel (because you are unable to make the physical commitment) you can do so in solidarity with those prayer warriors who do go to the PP sidewalk. Please sign up here to be a 'Barnabas Buddy'. Abortion healing begins this fall
Project Rachel, the post-abortion healing ministry for our diocese, will begin a healing group within the next few weeks. Our start date and meeting times will be determined by the availability of the participants. We will meet for 8-10 weeks, one evening each week. A Project Rachel team made up of a licensed counselor, a priest or deacon and a healed, post abortive facilitator will lead the groups. All groups are held in strict confidence. Please consider sharing this healing opportunity with anyone you feel could benefit. For more information, please contact Deacon Dave Ross (719-321-7258), Rhonda Miller (719-649-6198), Nancy Gonzalez (719-660-4375), or the Project Rachel Helpline for our diocese (719-866-6544). Important Safe Environment News
Changes are coming to our Safe Environment training for volunteers. Our diocese has selected a new platform called Virtus. With Virtus, update training will be required every three years rather than annually. Every month or so, volunteers will receive bulletins from Virtus regarding protecting God's children. Volunteers need to acknowledge reading the bulletins. More details are coming soon. If you received an email from Julie Dickinson regarding completing 2019-2020 Safe Environment Update Training ("Social Media and Computer Security"), please disregard the email as that training is no longer required. Catholic Citizenship Essay Contest
This contest encourages today’s youth to be more connected to their community and their faith. The goal of this program is to involve young Catholics in grades 8 to 12 (public, private, parochial or home schools during the current school year) in civic discourse and instill in them religious and life-affirming values. The essay should be 500-750 words discuss how trusting in God during a difficult time has helped you or someone you know find the strength and hope to endure it. Consider especially those times when it was a challenge to understand why something was happening. Consider also sharing any lessons about faith and hope you or someone you know may have learned from this experience. “Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy” (1 Peter 1:8). Entrants will be judged on grammar, style, and how clearly they present the theme in a way that showcases creativity, imagination and overall development of the topic. Submit essays by December 31, 2020, to clarkmusser69@gmail.com. If you have any questions, contact Clark Musser at clarkmusser69@gmail.com. Are you interested in becoming Catholic?
Are you discerning about being baptized or initiated into the Catholic Church? Are you an adult who wants to complete their sacraments?

We are looking for men and women who are interested in learning more about their faith by sponsoring an RCIA or RCIC candidate.
