Our Lady of Good Counsel

“What can we do to accomplish the works of God?” Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in the one he sent” (John 6:24-35). ‘The question posed by his listeners is the same that we ask today, and we know Jesus’ reply. Belief in Jesus Christ, then, is the way to arrive definitively at salvation. We must rediscover a taste for feeding ourselves on the word of God, faithfully handed down by the Church, and on the bread of life, offered as sustenance for his disciples’ (John 6:51; Benedict XVI Apostolic Letter The Door of Faith (Acts 14:27).

In the midst of restrictions, parishes are trying to carry on as best they can. Our Lady of Good Counsel Parish is no exception, so here is a little summary of some of the things that took place in the past year or so.

The Parish Spring Fling held on Sunday April 18 by zoom saw a good turnout, and many stated it was nice to see faces without masks! We were introduced to faces new and (once ?) familiar. We also heard how our parish ministries are faring in these times, and how we might serve in new ways.

Access great videos for children on your TV, computer, or mobile device freely through our parish subscription. From Catholic Heroes of the Faith, to Brother Francis and Lukas Storyteller, to new shows like the Slugs and Bugs Show and The Wonderful World of Benjamin Cello, there is something for all children on Formed.
