Spiritual Bouquet

Spiritual Bouquet Deacon Taylor Colwell and Martin Begley            

Our parish is blessed to be chosen to host the First Mass of our past summer seminarian, Deacon Taylor Colwell, who will be ordained to the priesthood on June 17. On the same day, Deacon Martin Begley, who served our parish throughout this past year, will also be ordained a priest. As part of our parish gift, we will be giving each of them a “spiritual bouquet” so they will know of our parish’s prayerful support for saying “yes” to God’s call. If you’d like to participate, fill out a card with your prayer offering (such as a number of rosaries, chaplets, hours of adoration, Our Fathers, or whatever prayer or devotion you want) after Mass this weekend, May 27/28, or the next weekend, June 3/4, or you can fill out a spiritual bouquet here on this page. Spiritual bouquets will be accepted through Sunday, June 11. 

If you’d like to participate, here’s what to do:

1. Consider what offering you want to make (for example, a particular number of rosaries, chaplets, hours of adoration, Our Fathers, or whatever prayer or devotion you want). 
2. Fill out a spiritual bouquet form on this page specifying your prayer offering and who it’s from, and a card will be added for you in the bundle we are preparing. Feel free to add an encouraging message if you wish.
3. Pray your offered prayers! Through the Lord’s great grace, they will certainly benefit our newly ordained.

Spiritual bouquets will be accepted through June 11. Questions? Contact Mary Beth de Ribeaux, at jpgvs.sjn@gmail.com. Thank you for your continued and strong support for our priests.
