Frassati Holy Hour & Coffee House
New Location: Shrine of the Little Flower
Friday, February 19th @ 8:00PM
The monthly Holy Hour and coffeehouse relocates this month. Going forward, we will meet at The National Shrine of the Little Flower located at the Northeast corner of Woodward and 12 Mile in Royal Oak. The Holy Hour will take place in the St. Therese Chapel. Afterwards, the coffeehouse will be held in the Conference Center across the street. We are grateful to The Church of the Transfiguration for their help and the use of their space, and look forward to many enriching experiences in our new home.
Leadership Mass & Breakfast
Thursday Morning 6:30 AM Mass at the Shrine
followed by Breakfast
A great way to start your day! Join some of the Frassati Leadership Team bright & early with Mass at the Shrine of the Little Flower in Royal Oak. We sit toward the front in the section just left of the main church entrance that faces Woodward. After mass, walk across the street to IHOP for some pancakes and conversation. This is your chance to learn more about Pier Giorgio, our leadership team, and to give your input and help shape the future of the Frassati Society.
Bible Study: Colossians and Philemon
Thursday's 7:00 PM January 7 - Febuary 25th
Guardian Angels Parish in Clawson
Frassati Bible study is offering an 8 week study of St. Paul's letters to the Colossians and Philemon. These exciting letters, written while Paul was in prison, seek to encourage his young flock, affirming them, warning them of hazards, and pointing them to the real king Jesus, who was with them and at work in them. This Bible study will analyze these two important letters, which continue to guide us toward that same king Jesus, who is still at work in his people today!
The cost is only $5.00, which includes materials. If you are interested, or would like more information, please contact Tim at mccorm45@yahoo.com.
Frassati Women's Group
The new Frassati Society Women's Group meets at Theresa Spranger's house in Southfield. The group continues to focus on issues of spirituality, service, and fellowship and we welcome your ideas for activities and discussions! For more information about this group, contact Theresa at Theresa.Spranger@gmail.com
Please make sure to email Theresa to RSVP. Space is limited.
"We, who by the grace of God are Catholics must not squander the best years of our lives as so many unhappy young people do, who worry about enjoying the good things in life, things that do not in fact bring any good, but rather the fruit of immorality in today's world. We must prepare ourselves to be ready and able to handle the struggles we will have to endure to fulfill our program and give our country, in the not too distant future, happier days and a morally healthy society, but to achieve this we need constant prayer to obtain from God that grace without which all our prayers are useless; organization and discipline to be ready for action at the right time; and finally, the sacrifice of our passion and of ourselves, because without that we cannot achieve our aim.”
-Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati, Turin, Italy, 1922
