Daughters of the King Quiet Day
The Daughters of the King of Good Shepherd will be hosting a Quiet Day on Saturday, March 14th, from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. in the church. All church members are welcome to participate. A Quiet Day may be considered as “hospitality for God”. It simply means taking away all obstacles so that those who come may relax and come into the presence of Our Father, who constantly invites us to come to Him. As Jesus told his apostles in Mark 6:30, “Come away by yourselves to a quiet place and rest awhile”. Please bring your own reading materials. There will be no food, drink or talking permitted. Come when you can. Leave when you must. Barbee Henderson, St Agnes Chapter president

We ask for people to commit to coming to the church and praying in the chapel for one hour sometime during that time frame. We try to have at least three people here at all times, at least one of whom is a man. Young people, too, are welcome to come with a parent. This is an excellent way to center yourself in preparation for the events of Good Friday and the subsequent days. The sign-up sheet is outside the Great Hall doors, or you may call the church office or contact Pam Nolting at agnoel@aol.com.
Men of the church...we need security for those who come to pray during the Easter Vigil on Maundy Thursday. There are four, two-hour time slots available. Please help us to insure everyone is safe during the vigil. If you have questions, please contact Roger Horton at 832/412-0997.
