February 3, 2019 FEAST OF SAINT BLAISE

Sunday, Feb. 3, we celebrate the feast of St. Blaise and the blessing of the throats. It is a very special ceremony that is prac- ticed on his feast day. Two candles are consecrated for this sacramental. They are blessed on on Feb. 2. Each year after Mass, we bless throats. The person saying the blessing of the throat says, “Through the intercession of Saint Blaise, and , may God deliver you from every disease of the throat and from every other illness: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.” Please stay for a short while after Mass this weekend so that you can have your throat blessed and experience this won- derful sacramental of our Church. Amen? Amen!

CODY’S BABY: Cody and Angela Egner (photo 1) had their second son on Jan. 22. Patrick Joseph Egner weighed 6 lbs., 6 oz. 1 MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. CELEBRATION: St. Anthony parishioners celebrated Martin Luther King Jr. at the MLK Breakfast at the Freedom Center. Pictured are George Martin and Gloria Parker-Martin, Jean and John Bange, Mary Lynne and Bob FitzGerald and Barb Thornton (photo 2). 1 ST. JOSEPH ALTAR FLOORING: As part of the St. Cecilia sanctuary renovation project, the step in front of the St. Joseph altar has been rebuilt using marble to match what had been there a while back (photo 3, 4). The original step was removed when the old baptismal font was moved in front of that altar decades ago. Hard to tell it was ever gone now! 1 MARCH FOR LIFE: This year we had a lot of groups from our region attend the March for Life in Washington, DC. Fr. Jacob and Sarah Rose took a group of young adults (photo 5). The children from Divine Mercy and Edmund Campion (photo 6) also went to the march. It is wonderful to know that so many of our parishioners support this cause and went out in the cold to march for their belief. 1 MINI-MARCH: There was a mini-march here in Cincinnati (photo 7) for those who could not attend the March for Life in DC. We had some parishioners from St. Cecilia attend the local march. It was a nice turnout despite the cold and snow.
