On February 11 we celebrate the Memorial of Our Lady of Lourdes. In 1858, Blessed Mother appeared 18 times to St. Bernadette Soubirous in the cave at Massabielle in Lourdes. In her final apparition Blessed Virgin proclaimed herself as “The Immaculate Conception”. Even today about 4 t0 6 million pilgrim visit the Shrine for healing and comfort.
Thank you, Holy Trinity! Thanks to your generosity we were able to collect a total of 434 items and $448.00 for Azle Community Caring Center. Sadly, we did not predict this year’s Super Bowl Champion with your donations. Holy Trinity donated 227 items and 283.00 to the Cincinnati Bengals Basket and 169 items and 165.00 to the Los Angeles Rams.
This Tuesday we celebrate the Presentation of the Lord. In the Eastern tradition of the Church it was called ‘Feast of Encounter’. Encounter because it was the meeting of God in incarnate and the humanity which was presented by Simeon and Anna, the old couple in the Temple.
