Healing Mass * Thursday, October 16 Our next Healing Mass is this Thursday, October 16, at 7PM. Calix * Thursday, October 16 The Calix Society was founded in 1947 in Minneapolis in the United States, by a group of five men, all recovering alcoholics, who saw their faith as a sure path to serenity without alcohol. 'Calix' is Latin for 'chalice', and these men accepted the idea that they were substituting 'the cup that sanctifies for the cup that stupefies'. The purpose of the founders of Calix was to use the resources of the Church to aid them as alcoholics to work towards sanctification. Calix gathers its members together as Catholics, on common spiritual ground, with their common problem and their common aspirations, to seek guidance in practical daily living. Calix is not a ‘Catholic A.A.’. It does not attempt to sober anyone up. Alcoholics Anonymous is very effective in that area and there are other 12 Step programs, and medical alternatives for that purpose. Calix seeks only to provide a complementary and supplementary resource for Catholics, to help them make connections between what they receive from A.A., Alanon, or other 12 Step programs and the faith and practices of the Church. If you believe you could benefit from being a part of the Calix Society, come to our next meeting. We meet at 8:00PM at the Ss. Cyril and Methodius Activity Center, on the third Thursday of every month. Our next meeting is this Thursday, October 16.

She was taking shelter from a storm with her nephew, when both of them were struck by lightning. What happened to her afterwards was a miracle which led to her conversion and a life of abandonment to the will of God. She now tells her story in many different countries around the world, and has the approval of her diocese in Bogota, Colombia, and her spiritual director. Her testimony is an inspiration for all of us, and will increase our faith in Christ Jesus and His Holy Catholic Church. St. Cyril's Book Club will meet on Monday, October 20, at 7:00PM in room 112.

Catherine is a gifted speaker and the founder of The Servants of Jesus of The Divine Mercy in Clinton Township, Michigan. In 1986, Catherine was miraculously healed through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary while on her deathbed, after giving birth to her youngest daughter. She made a promise that she would do something “good” for God (in return). In 1992, Jesus Christ appeared to Catherine and asked for “a total healing of every strata of the Church.” Catherine has dedicated her life to spreading the message of The Divine Mercy. She is dynamic yet humble, spiritual, yet grounded. A wife of 38 years, a proud mother of three, grandmother of nine, and a woman who has been face to face with Jesus Christ, Catherine M.
