Griffin will be the Special Honoree at the 2010 St. Joseph Cathedral
Gala. The Gala will be held on Saturday, February 13, 2010 at 6:00 p.m.

RCIA – FEBRUARY 10, 6:30 - 9:00 p.m.:
“Sacrifice & Historical Significance of Ash Wednesday” will be presented
by Father Dan Millisor. Sessions meet each Wednesday evening in the
undercroft. Please keep our candidates in your prayers and show your
support by attending the sessions when possible. For more information
contact Carol Keene at 614-657-9528.
UPDATE OF PARISH
CENSUS:
We have new software for our parish census. Some of our current
information is outdated and some is simply inaccurate. New information
sheets will be mailed to every member that we now have on record before
the end of January.
You may also download the information sheets. We will be using this information to update our parish
records. I ask that these forms be completed and mailed to the Rectory or
brought to Mass and placed in the offering baskets. If you do not receive
a copy of the new form in the mail, you are not officially registered in
the Cathedral parish or the address we have for you is incorrect. EVERY
INDIVIDUAL OR FAMILY who has never received or completed an application,
by the end of January, is asked to take a copy from the stone tables and
follow the same procedures. Thank
you for your participation in this important project. Fr. Mike

STATIONS OF THE CROSS DURING LENT
Beginning February 17
Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday after the 12:05 p.m. Mass
Wednesday after the 5:15 p.m. Mass
There will be no Stations of the Cross after March 31
Lent is the time to set in place those practices, prayers, and
penances that will make this a sacred time. By Easter we want to be
better members of Christ’s Church than we are today.
Hopefully, many of these practices will not end, but will lead us to
becoming people of greater virtue.

PARENTS:
We are beginning to form classes to prepare our children for the
sacraments of Reconciliation and First Communion. We are also looking for
people who would like to volunteer to assist the teachers. Please
call the rectory at (614) 224-1295 to register your child for the classes.
