Fall/Winter Bible Study 2018

Acts: The Spread of the Kingdom
by Jeff Cavins and Sarah Christmyer

Step Three in The Great Adventure Bible Study Program, Acts: The Spread of the Kingdom, builds on The Bible Timeline and Matthew by showing how Christ's Kingdom on earth is empowered to carry out his work in the world. The book of Acts shows the Church, enlivened by the Holy Spirit, teaching, preaching, healing, and restoring outcasts in the same way that Jesus did on earth.

The Acts of the Apostles also provides an historic framework for understanding the rest of the New Testament. Paul’s letters in particular come alive in a new way when they are read within the context of the Acts narrative.

There are twenty (20) Sessions for the Bible Study on Acts of the Apostles

Class Begins: October 1, 2018           Location: Parish Hall St. Joseph’s Church, Beulah
                                                                 Time: 6:30 – 8:30 PM
                                                                 Cost: $29 for Study Guide

St. Martin Major Road Work

There is major road work being done on all access roads surrounding St. Martin. The streets surrounding St. Martin will be milled down 4 inches beginning today, cutting them down to dirt. Because of the recent weather, the roads will not be paved until early next week. Due to this construction, we have been asked not to park on the street until after August 15, please use the parking lots for parking as much as possible.

Mass WILL be held at St. Martin's at 10:00am on Sunday.

Because of the construction, there will be NO Adoration at St. Martin's on Tuesday, July 3, also there will be NO weekday Mass July 3-thru July 5.

May you all have a wonderful weekend, and a Happy and safe 4th of July.

ATTENTION: Possible Mass Changes in Hazen this coming weekend.

Please watch the Facebook sites, the website and your email regarding a possible change to the 10 Mass on Sunday. There is major road work being done on all access roads surrounding the church. The hope is they will mill the roads down the intended 4 inches and pave right away on Friday or Saturday.

If it rains on Saturday, the paving will not happen and the roads will hold the water. Then access to the church will be affected. If this happens, Mass at 10 am would be held at St Joseph in Beulah. We will know more information later this week, and we WILL notify you if there is a change.

Outside of weekend Mass Until August 15, they are asking us to not park on the street. Please use the parking lot during the week.

Stations of the Cross and Soup/Sandwich Meal Cancelled

Stations of the Cross has been cancelled for tonight due to the weather/road conditions. (Soup and sandwich meal is also cancelled.) Stay safe and warm everyone.
