VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL

Ever wonder what Jesus was like when he was a kid?  Or how his life was in the past?  If you do, don’t miss out on St. Cyprian Vacation Bible School where we get the inside scoop from Jesus’ mom, Mary!  We will take kids back to hometown Nazareth, where they’ll stand up for their faith among people who doubt that a carpenter’s son is really God’s Son.  Save the date: June 17 – 21 from 9-12 a.m.

INTERNATIONAL FOOD FESTIVAL NEEDS YOU!

Questions? Call Sue 440-667-1907

ROSARY

Come pray with us!  The Rosary is one of the most powerful prayers to recite.  We offer two opportunities each week to gather and pray the Holy Rosary together: Everyone is welcome to join us in this special devotion to the Blessed Mother after adoration on Tuesdays at 7 p.m. and for our country on Saturdays at 4:30 p.m. before Mass.

ONLINE GIVING

Forms are available on the parish website if you are interested in an electronic option for making your regular weekly or monthly offering.  Contributions can be automatically debited from your checking or savings account.  If you are currently giving on a weekly basis, you will no longer need to write out 52 checks a year.  This program will allow your weekly or monthly contributions to continue uninterrupted when travel, illness or other circumstances prevent you from attending Mass. Forms can be placed in the basket at Mass or given to Father George or one of the deacons.
