Deacon William R. Hathaway
Graduating from Andrean High School..........
Deacon Roberto Mendoza
Active in the Hispanic Community..........
In 1994, the Diocese of Gary began a four year theology based program to prepare men and women as Ecclesial Ministers. Since then over 200 men
and women have graduated from the program and received certificates of
completion.
Ecclesial Ministers are defined as lay men and women who have
been prepared professionally for specific roles of service and leadership in
our parishes and our diocese. The four year program includes 24 hours of
theology, spiritual formation and pastoral development.
This program is a prerequisite for the Deacon program. In September of this year, 2009, a new class will begin on Tuesday evenings for men and women interested in becoming an Ecclesial Minister or a deacon.
Two informational meetings have been scheduled for those wanting to learn more about the program. One session will be held on Monday, January 26th, and another on Wednesday, January 28th. Both begin at 7:00 pm, held at the Diocesan Pastoral Center, 9292 Broadway in Merrillville.
You need only attend one of the informational meetings. If you would like more
information, contact Anne Verbeke at 219-769-9292, ext 280, or by email at
averbeke@dcgary.org.

Just one of many testimonies......
The Rachel's Vineyard Retreat restored my life. I feel whole again, alive and capable of love.
http://www.rachelsvineyard.org/
Rachel's Vineyard, an offering of Catholic charities, is a weekend retreat for healing after abortion. This retreat, held on October 9 through October 11, will help those who struggle with grief, guilt and pain.
Come and experience the mercy, forgiveness and heeling love of God in the company of others who understand these feelings.
For more Information, please call 219-558-0625.

A country that accepts abortion is not teaching people to love, but rather to use violence to get what they want. This is why the greatest destroyer of peace is abortion. ~Mother Teresa
