Our Lady of Pompei / St. Peter Church lenten season
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.
Holy Hour
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
Stations of the Cross:
Every Friday at St. John the Baptist at 4pm (and led by volunteers prior to the 9am Mass) 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.
My Lord, Jesus Christ,
You have made this journey to die for me with unspeakable love; and I have so many times ungratefully abandoned You.
But now I love You with all my heart;
and, because I love You, I am sincerely sorry for ever having offended You.
Pardon me, my God, and permit me to accompany You on this journey.
You go to die for love of me; I want, my beloved Redeemer, to die for love of You. My Jesus, I will live and die always united to You.
Eucharistic Adoration
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!

Our Mission
We, the members of Our Lady of Pompei/St. Peter, are called to acknowledge the Lordship of Jesus. As our parish affirms its heritage, we continue to reach out to those in need, bring the gospel to all who will receive it, and be formed in the image of Christ through worship and prayer. We value the talents of each of our
members and feel it is the responsibility of all to contribute time, talent and tithe to our faith community.
