HOLY CROSS CHURCH A Farewell Reception for Father Sebastian Kos will take place on August 16 th at 1:00pm at PJPII School Small Cafeteria. All are welcome! Pokarm na życie wieczne Co jakiś czas można usłyszeć, że ktoś próbuje wynaleźć eliksir nieśmiertelności albo środek na przedłużenie życia. Niestety tego pierwszego marzenia jeszcze nikomu nie udało się zrealizować. Nasze ziemskie życie udało się przedłużyć o kilka lat, ale jest to i tak niewiele w stosunku do wieczności. Jezus obiecuje życie wieczne tym, którzy będą spożywali Jego ciało i pili Jego krew. Eucharystia jest w zasięgu każdego żyjącego chrześcijanina. Może warto, abym przy tej okazji zapytał się samego siebie: Czy nie zaniedbuję możliwości częstego przyjmowania Eucharystii? Ona powinna być dla mnie jak chleb powszedni, którym karmię się każdego dnia. Panie, Chlebie łamany w Eucharystii, bądź moim codziennym pokarmem i umocnieniem w walce z grzechem, który oddala mnie od Ciebie. Zapraszamy na Dożynki! Doroczne dożynki odbędą się w sobotę 22-go i niedziela 23-go sierpnia na Polance Sokołów przy Farmington Ave., New Britain. Rozpoczną się polową Mszą Św. o godz. 11-ej rano w sobotę.
