He was talking about the rumor that he cast out demons because the devil gave him the power to do so. But his teaching is also true about families, workplaces, nations, and countries. Divisions can weaken or destroy groups -- even faith communities. We all need to acknowledge one another as people of faith and be willing to engage in the conversation without considering the other to be an outcast. Let us pray for the grace to do so. http://www.stgerald.org Monday - Daily Mass - Chapel: 8:15am Church: 12:15, 5:30pm - - Tuesday - Daily Mass - Chapel: 8:15am Church: 12:15, 5:30 - - Wednesday - Daily Mass - Chapel 8:15, Church 12:15, 5:30 - - Thursday - Daily Mass - Chapel: 8:15am Church: 12:15, 5:30 - - Friday- Daily Mass - Chapel: 8:15 am, Church: 12:15, 5:30 pm. - Stations of the Cross - Church: Following 12:15 pm Mass and prior to 5 pm Mass. - - Saturday - Mass - Chapel: 8:15 am.- Church: 5 pm. - Sacrament of Penance - Church 3:30-4:45 p.m. - - Sunday - Mass - Chapel: 7 am.
