Wednesday, March 20 at Noon | Walk of Faith
In honor of World Water Day on Wednesday, March 20, CRS*, Catholic Relief Services, invites you to a day of prayer and reflection on the importance of water in our physical and spiritual lives.
“Water maintains an important symbolic role in Judeo-Christian scripture, theology, and sacrament, largely because our faith arose in a land where water was particularly scarce. With water so crucial not only to our daily nutrition, but to our health and sanitation, it is a challenge to our Christian consciences to consider that nearly one billion people lack access to it.” As Catholics we are called to participate and uphold the corporal works of Mercy, one of which is “To give drink to the Thirsty.” - World Water Resources
*CRS, Catholic Relief Services, is a Catholic global mission who’s goal is to assist the poor and vulnerable of the world by responding to major emergencies, fighting disease, poverty, and nurturing peaceful and just societies.

12:00 p.m. - Mass at the Grotto
