From the Desk of Father Davis
Are you ready to try and enter the narrow door? Today's Gospel challenges believers and
non-believers alike to enter into the mystery of a deep life in Christ. Jesus addresses his hearers with
blunt poignancy. There's nothing easy about the Christian life! It requires conversion, sacrifice and
commitment. It requires the willingness to do whatever is necessary to align our lives with their holy
purposes.

[email protected]. RICA – Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults
Are you or someone you know interested in
joining the Catholic Church? Are you
curious about the Catholic Faith, but not sure
you want to make a commitment? Are you
married to a Catholic spouse, raising your
children Catholic, and interested in knowing
more to be able to share with them? Are you
a Catholic who desires to complete the initiation process
by receiving Eucharist and Confirmation?
If you answered
“yes” to any of these questions, we warmly invite you to
give serious consideration of entering into the RCIA
process.
The RCIA process begins September 11, 2022 and meets
weekly through the month of May. Weekly sessions
consist of a presentation on a topic of Catholic Teaching,
scripture reflection and faith sharing.
Here are some comments from previous participants:
- Coming from no religious background, RCIA has been
many things to me. It has been a crash course of
Catholic basics, a spiritual awakening, and the many
speakers have been a viewpoint of Catholicism from
an every day view. RCIA has been fun, informative,
social, and most of all a blessing!
- What has RCIA meant to me? It saved my life! It
brought me closer to God. It opened my mind to a
whole new universe of life I Christ.
If you are interested
in the RCIA for yourself or someone you know, please
contact our RCIA Director Patricia O’Neill, at 954 895-
2238 for more information, or to register for this wonderful
program. Visit the RCIA page on our website.

Saint Gregory will soon
return to offering quarterly
Healing Masses for those
needing to receive the
Sacrament of the Anointing
of the Sick.
This opportunity
is designed to bring spiritual support, comfort, and
reassurance in Christ, as we turn to the Lord asking for
physical and spiritual healing. Those who have noncontagious serious illnesses and health conditions, those
who are approaching surgery or recovering from surgery,
and those who are burdened with the weight of years, are
especially invited to come and publicly receive the
Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick on these scheduled
occasions. Other cases can be handled with special
planning and care.
The next Healing Mass at Saint Gregory
is scheduled for Tuesday, August 23rd, at 7:00pm in
church.
All are welcome to come and pray for divine
healing and strength. Eucharistic Adoration
