Holy Hour / Book Study
Holy Hour:
Tuesdays evenings join us at the Convent at Pompei for Holy Hour, Eucharistic Adoration, Fr. Foley will also lead some quiet praise and worship music as has been the case when we do this! Adoration will start at 5:30 in the chapel, the talks/class will follow at 6:30/6:45pm. Please feel welcome to join even if you can't make it every week.
Book Study
Tuesdays after Holy Hour: After the time of prayer, a program will be offered journeying through the book, now spiritual classic, "He Leadeth Me" by Fr. Walter Ciszek. Books will be available through Fr. Foley, or you can obtain yourself, but also you are welcome to participate even if you don't want to read the book! Each week a few chapters will be covered, and together we will be transformed by Fr. Walter's amazing and powerful testimony.
Stations of the Cross

Every Friday at St. John the Baptist at 4pm (and led by volunteers prior to the 9am Mass) And at Pompei we will designate Saturday March 7th, and Saturday March 28th to be days where following the 4pm Mass we will invite all to stay after Mass to pray the Stations.
Eucharistic Adoration

will be offered during the regularly scheduled hour of confession at both OLP/SP (W 4-5pm) and St. JtB/HT (Th 4-5pm). We hope to continue this even after Lent! Please come and rest with Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament!
Disciplines of Lent
The disciplines of Lent—
prayer, fasting, and almsgiving—help us prepare for Christ’s victory on Easter. When receiving ashes, we hear the words, “Remember that you are dust and dust you shall return,” or “Turn away from sin and believe in the Gospel ” to bring us into a penitential disposition.
