Little Sisters of the Poor, June 22-23

Little Sisters of the Poor will be at SFX collecting donations after all masses June 22nd and 23rd.

The Little Sisters of the Poor are an international congregation of Roman Catholic women religious founded in 1839 by Saint Jeanne Jugan. Together with a diverse network of collaborators, they serve the elderly poor in over 30 countries around the world. Continuing the work of Saint Jeanne Jugan, their mission is to offer the neediest elderly of every race and religion a home where they will be welcomed as Christ, cared for as family and accompanied with dignity until God calls them to himself.

Safe Environment Training at SFX June 10th

The Archdiocese of Louisville is committed to ensuring that children and youth who worship, study or participate in church-sponsored activities can do so in the safest and most secure setting possible. In an effort to fulfill this commitment, all employees or volunteers who have contact with children or youth (18 and under) for ANY length of time are required to

  1. Participate in an Archdiocese Safe Environment Training (SET) Workshop (2 hour session).
  2. Complete an Archdiocese Criminal Background Check every 5 years.

St. Francis Xavier will be hosting Safe Environment Training on Monday, June 10th, from 6:30-8:30PM in the Parish Hall. The training moves around the Louisville area throughout the year, but here is your chance to catch it close to home. No registration is necessary, just arrive prior to 6:30 and plan to stay for the full 2 hours.

Interactive Stations of the Cross

You are invited to an emotionally charged, mindful, personal, and intentional journey with Christ through His Passion. For the second year, we will offer the interactive Stations of the Cross that was such a special experience for so many last year.

Each visitor will travel though the Stations independently with time for reflection on each of the 14 Stations; young children can be accompanied. The emphasis for the event is to give participants the space and time needed to reflect on their own life, Jesus’ Passion, and all He went through for us.

Each Station’s traditional prayer is accompanied by a Station-specific Reflection, Life Connection, Prayer and an emotionally engaging task to help bring His journey to a tangible understanding. The “open house” style event will be held in the Religious Education building on Friday, February 23, 4PM – 7PM, Saturday, February 24, 2PM – 7PM, and Sunday, February 25, 8AM – 2PM. The journey usually takes 15 to 30 minutes, but some have opted to stay longer which you are welcome to do. We hope that you will come share in this spiritual journey with us.
