​
 ANDREW ADORATION CHAPEL, 1621 Ferndale Ave, Johnstown: In this blessed time of Eucharistic Revival in our Church, consider visiting and/or committing to an hour at our Perpetual Adoration Chapel. We are always seeking adorers and substitutes. The chapel is open Sunday morning immediately following the 10:30 Mass and remains open until 7:20 AM on Saturday morning each week. Consider giving one hour to our Lord. One does not need to be a member of St. Andrew Parish in order to visit or commit in any way. Currently, we are most in need of committed adorers on Tuesday, 12 AM (midnight) to 1 AM, and Thursday morning, 1:00 AM - 2:00 AM. Many hours only have one adorer, and it is preferable to have two each hour. Please call 814-288-4324, Ext. 5, visit https://standrewjtown.weadorehim.com/en/schedule, or feel free to call or text Terri Roy at 815-255-5645 if you feel Our Lord is calling you to sign up for an hour or have any questions. Jesus is waiting for you!

ST. FRANCIS OF ASSISI: Connect with your Creator, Redeemer, and Spiritual Guide in a stress-free environment at the Eucharistic Adoration every first Friday of the month from 9:30 AM until 5:30 PM at St. Francis of Assisi Church. It is important that each ½ hour or hour have two adorers to adore and protect the Blessed Sacrament. ​
Sunday’s Second Reading, from St. Paul’s first letter to the Corinthians, picks up where we left off last week and continues with a similar theme. The message is that we are each unique in the gifts and talents God has given to us, and therefore, we all have different tasks to fulfill as members of the Body of Christ.

And just what are we, as Christian stewards, aiming to achieve by sharing our gifts and talents? We are aiming to follow in the footsteps of our Lord, furthering with His grace the mission He began 2,000 years ago. What a noble purpose! What great dignity has been bestowed upon us, modern-day disciples, that we are called to this same task.

In the week ahead, let’s take this mission to heart, examining the way we can use our gifts and talents for this mission and asking ourselves what it looks like in our unique circumstances to ‘bring glad tidings to the poor’, ‘liberty to captives’, ‘sight to the blind’, and ‘freedom to the oppressed.’ It might feel uncomfortable at first, but the good news is you don’t have to do it alone. Do you part and know that the Spirit of the Lord is upon us all as we live out this stewardship way of life.
Wednesday, January 22, all dioceses in the United States of America are observing a Day of Prayer for the Legal Protection of Unborn Children. January 22 is the day of the anniversary of the Supreme Court decision, Roe vs. Wade (1973), the Church in America prays for the violations to the dignity of the human person committed through acts of abortion, and of prayer for the full restoration of the legal guarantee to the right to life. Members of the Diocese are encouraged to go to Mass on this day, pray the rosary, the chaplet of Divine Mercy, fast and abstain, and join the Altoona-Johnstown family in praying the following: 
O God, who adorn creation with splendor and beauty,
and fashion human lives in your image and likeness,
awaken in every heart reverence for the work of your hands,
and renew among your people a readiness to nurture and sustain
your precious gift of human life.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you
 in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen
 
Our Father, we gather in gratitude for our Catholic schools,
where faith and knowledge intertwine.
Bless our educators, students, and families during this special week,
and inspire us to grow in love and wisdom.
May our hearts be open to Your grace,
guiding us in our mission of service and compassion. Amen.

Your parishioners are a shining light of love and support to these families who have chosen life for their unborn babies. Without your generosity, our ministry could never give these families the hope and help they so desperately need. Please accept our warm thanks for all you do to help the pro-life cause.

  • A HEARTFELT THANK YOU:  Dear St. Clare and Resurrection Parishioners, Shelley and I want to extend our heartfelt gratitude for the wonderful gifts and thoughtful cards you blessed us with.  Your kindness and generosity truly made our holiday brighter.

It is a true joy to serve as your Deacon, and we feel incredibly blessed to be part of such a loving and supportive parish family.  As we enter the new year, please know that you're all in our prayers. May God continue to bless you and your families abundantly and may the joy of Christ’s love fill your hearts throughout the coming year.  With all our gratitude and love, Deacon Nelson and Shelley Lowes

Our Holy Land Pilgrimage scheduled for April 28-May 8, 2025, with Fr. Dave and Deacon Michael is still confirmed. We have been following the situation in the Holy Land all year. Pilgrimages have been happening since the summer and continue. The conflict has not affected the holy sites, and with the cease-fire in place, everyone is feeling comfortable. Please see the note and video.
Our travel service, Educational Opportunities continually monitors the progress and would never put us in a dangerous situation.  Currently, we have 15 pilgrims registered for the trip. We would like to get 30 so that we can keep our group exclusive.
If we cannot secure the 30 pilgrims required to hold our pilgrimage costs, Educational Opportunities is offering the following suggestions:
  • With 15 to 19 people, the cost will be increased by $200. per person.
  • With 20-24 people, the cost will be increased by $100. per person.
  • Postpone the tour until later in 2025 or 2026.
We will provide a bus to and from the airport as in the past. If we can increase the number of pilgrims, the cost of the bus will be lower. I do not have the bus company’s quote yet, but the goal is to keep costs as low as possible.
Please contact Deacon Michael [email protected] or call (814) 288-3036 and leave a message.
