Ask Father...
What is the role of the deacon in the Church? How does their training differ from
that of a priest?
On-Line Priest Q & A
Do you have a question about our Catholic faith that you want to ask a
priest but haven't had a good opportunity to ask it? Here's your chance!
Send your question to Caryn at the Rectory (330-467-7959)
or clintner@sbcglobal.net.
We will list your question anonymously on the new Ask Father
page, and a priest will answer your question.

Father's Day Prayer
God our Father,
You govern and protect your people and shepherd them with a father's love. You place a father
in a family as a sign of your love, care, and constant protection.
May fathers everywhere be faithful to the example shown in the Scriptures: steadfast in love,
forgiving transgressions, sustaining the family, caring for those in need. Give your wisdom to
fathers that they may encourage and guide their children. Keep them healthy so they may support
a family.
Guide every father with the Spirit of your love that they may grow in holiness and draw their
family ever closer to you.
Amen. |

the Virtus program.
- Fingerprinting is also a requirement to being Virtus compliant. Call Dawn at the Rectory
