Pope Francis' death and Life Teen Lock-in

The Death of Pope Francis

Please pray an Our Father, Hail Mary and a Glory be for the repose of the soul of Pope Francis. The USCCB has asked that this be done each day until the internment. May he rest in peace with the Lord.

There will still be a lock-in this Saturday beginning with Mass at 4:30 pm.

Due to Pope Francis' death, The canonization of Carlo Acutis has been postponed, so we will discuss how a new pope is elected.

There will not be Life Teen/ Confirmation at 6 pm on Sunday.

Instead we will gather for 4:30 Mass on Saturday, April 26 and begin the lock-in until 7:30 am on Sunday. Games, Fun, Food and Prizes. You are more than welcome to bring a friend. Everyone must have a parent signed permission form. Cost is a snack or drink to share. Pizza (after Mass) and breakfast will be provided.

You must check in by 10:00 pm or make special arrangement with Norma by Wednesday, April 23. You will not be able to leave until 7:30 am. There will be separate sleeping areas for girls and guys. Come celebrate the Easter Season with your friends.

Reminder: Tickets for NCYC are being ordered. Don't miss out on this unique experience of the Catholic Church right here in our state!

You may turn in your form and deposit by Wednesday, April 23 at 4:00 pm and still save $25 off your fees. There is an group at St. Joseph that would love to support your pilgrimage, so when you register more than a 1/4 of your fee will be covered. Any questions contact Norma in the parish office. Turn in the form below and you are set to attend. Participate and/or organize fundraisers, ask for sponsors from family and friends, and your on your way.
