The Journey
Weekly Events for September 13 – 19
Jesus said, “What man among you having hundred sheep and losing one of them would not leave the ninety-nine in the desert and go after the lost one until he finds it? And when he does find it, he sets it on his shoulders with great joy and, upon his arrival home, he calls together his friends and neighbors and says to them, ‘Rejoice with me because I have found my lost sheep.’ I tell you, in just the same way there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous people who have no need of repentance.” – Luke 15:4-7
Tuesday, September 14 – All Day Parish Day of Eucharistic Adoration and Rosary, Church, 7:30 PM
Please come join The Journey as we adore the Blessed Sacrament and pray the Rosary together! St. John Neumann is having Eucharistic Adoration and Benediction all day this Tuesday starting at 8:45 AM, and The Journey will get together for adoration at 7:30 PM with Rosary following afterwards. The Journey continues the tradition of true devotion to Mary our Blessed Mother by offering her a spiritual bouquet of roses, praying the Rosary with reverence and meditating on the life of her son, our Savior, Jesus Christ, as she always goes with us and intercedes for us all the time. After the Rosary, all are invited for fun conversation and coffee at Oak Creek Shopping Center.
