Over the years many people have asked for a program to help them
understand and appreciate their faith better. This year we are going to
offer a multi-part series called 'Catholicism', starting
during the weeks of Lent. Each session has a 45-minute video about
Jesus, God, our spirituality, and the church, followed by 45 minutes of
discussion and questions.
Fr. Robert Barron is an author, speaker, and theologian. He is also the creator and host of this 10-part series -- 'Catholicism'.
His team traveled all over the world to develop a better understanding
of the Catholic Church, the Catholic Christianity that we profess.
'Catholicism' talks about Jesus, His teachings, God,
the Church, the Sacraments, the liturgy, and Catholic belief. We
will not show the series ten weeks in a row, but will do it in sections,
starting with the weeks of Lent. Then later we will show another
series of videos.
It is really well done! You will like it! Plan to participate!
We plan to host this exciting event at the Maryknoll office on
Street 320, near Toul Sleng. To help us get an idea of how many people
will attend, please do one of two things:
1. At mass on the next two weekends, please fill out the form that indicates you will attend andall of the days of the week which are possible for you. There are four choices for days of the week.
Please put a "1" by your first choice, a "2" by your second choice, a
"3" by your third choice, etc.. Put a "0" by a day if that day is
not possible for you.
2. If you prefer to answer online, please hit Reply to this newsletter
e-mail and list the days that are possible for you, in the order that
you prefer. If you answer online, please indicate how many members
of your family or household will attend.
Confirmation
Because members of our community move and are transferred so much, it
happens that some reach adulthood and have never been confirmed. The
Sacrament of Confirmation is an important part of our spiritual
development. If you have not been confirmed and would like to receive
the sacrament on May 3rd with Bishop Olivier, please call the church phone at (012) 418-802
Korean Bazaar
The Korean Catholic Community in Cambodia host a bazaar on Sunday, 23 February, 9 AM to 3 PM at St Joseph (Phsar Tauch) Catholic Church on National Road #5. Because of the bazaar, NO cars
will be allowed inside the church grounds on Sunday. Please
travel by tuk-tuk or plan to park at the primary school on the small
road next to the church grounds.
Christian Life Seminar
The Couples for Christ-FFL group is sponsoring a Christian Life Seminar on five Sundays starting on March 2nd.
The sessions will be at the Washington School at #2 Street J in the
Sovana Complex at 1:30 PM. It is for any adults who wish to deepen their
