ANOINTING OF THE SICK MASSES WITH BISHOP SCHLERT

August 24th at 12:00pm at St. Thomas More, Allentown
Bishop Schlert will celebrate Masses offering the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick. This Sacrament is given to anyone who is seriously ill, either physically or mentally, or to anyone advanced in age or facing a medical procedure. This great gift of grace offers holistic healing by praying for a cure, but, more importantly, for the gift of hope and peace that the sufferer would be united to Christ on the Cross.

PARISH TEENS - YOU’RE INVITED

St. Thomas More Youth Group has invited St. Ann’s parish high school teens to be a part of their Youth Group and activities.
There’s no membership or requirement - you can attend as your schedule allows. Please contact Allie Yudt, STM Youth Ministry, allie@stmchurchallentown.org, with any questions!

CATHOLIC HEART WORKCAMP

Catholic Heart Workcamp is a powerful mission-trip experience. Groups travel to a community, stay at a home base (usually a Catholic school) and serve that community for 4 days. Students work alongside other students from all over the country. Teens learn that by opening themselves up to God's grace and serving in His name, they can truly transform a community - and receive so much joy and peace. For many teens, it can be a lifechanging experience.

St. Thomas More Youth Ministry is planning to attend CHWC in Summer 2024. If you'd like to learn more or reserve your spot, please contact ALLIE YUDT.
