@StNewmanParish @AskInvitePray It’s been wonderful to spend the weekend with you as you celebrate the first of our new Deanery Vocations Months around @RCBirmingham! Thank you for such an amazing welcome! #PrayforVocations

It’s been a joy this weekend to welcome Fr. Craig Szmidt @FatherCraig, Diocesan Vocations Director to our parish. At our five weekend Masses he has promoted vocations @AskInvitePray by simply asking us to listen to what and who God is calling us to be! Please pray for vocations

Happy Solemnity of the Epiphany! The Vocations Office and @missionoffice have celebrated with Holy Mass and lunch together - including a traditional French galette des rois (king cake), where the person who finds the fève is crowned king for the day!

“Mary, she treasured all these things and pondered them in her heart.” (Lk 2) Today is the Octave day of Christmas, and we celebrate the Solemnity of Mary, the Mother of God. As we contemplate the scene of the Nativity, we seek her intercession as we begin 2023. @RCBirmingham

A prayer for the health of Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI.

“For to us a child is born, to us a Son is given.” - Isaiah 9:6 We wish all of our followers a blessed and peaceful Christmas season!
