ADULT FORMATION
"It’s been many years since I last made a novena, nine days dedicated to prayer. But if there’s ever a moment when we all could use the light and wisdom of the Holy Spirit, it’s now. While we wait till we can be together again for Sunday worship, this is a way we can join our hearts in prayer, as those first disciples did, and wait in hope to receive the Comforter, the Spirit of Jesus." -Dan Schutte

Parish-Wide Zoom Gathering for Adults
All Are Welcome:
Please join your fellow parishioners for a time of connecting, breaking open this Sunday’s Gospel! We now have two options of gathering;
Saturdays from 10-11:30am or Sundays from 1-2:30pm
_________________________________________________________
This Week’s Gospel is John 20:19-23
This Week’s Questions are:
-What do you think may have been going through the disciples’ minds when Jesus showed up announced, out of thin air saying, “Peace be with you,” (twice even)? Have you ever had an experience where you were somewhere, or with someone and out of nowhere you realized Jesus showed up!? Talk about that experience...
-We all received the Holy Spirit at our Baptisms, is there another time in life where you have experienced/felt the stirring of the Holy Spirit? Can you put that into words?
-Where is God sending you, what work of His do you feel called to?
_________________________________________________________
If you are interested in joining one of these meetings look for the links in the Wednesday and Friday email blasts from SJTB office, or email me at joanw@sjtbcc.org and I will send you the link.

“We are meant to be hope-filled people,” says noted spiritual writer and Living Faith contributor Joyce Rupp, but how do we keep an enduring sense of hope “in a society where divisiveness and hostility doggedly work against” it? In this beautiful and profound book, Rupp helps us follow the only path that leads to real hope: the path of building our “relationship with the Holy One who dwells within us.”
Based on the seasons of the liturgical year, and suffused with real-life wisdom,
Joyce Rupp’s Constant Hope will be an invaluable companion on your journey of faith, leading you to the One who has been encouraging and wooing you to enter more fully into relationship, and helping you respond in hope and joy to the
love that God constantly offers.

After completing her Ph.D. in Russian literature at UC Berkeley, Cameron Bellm traded academics for the contemplative life, informed by Ignatian spirituality and Catholic social teaching. The Seattle-based writer and her husband have two young sons and she seeks each day to find God in all things, most frequently in Legos and microwaved coffee.
