Since this is the Lenten season, our focus is on Christ's gift to us; therefore, our activities tend to reflect this. Some days have gone over and above with blessings and encounters with some outstanding people who live in service to our Saviour.
Saturday Morning:
Catholic Women of the Chapel
Mary, Queen of Peace - Stations of the Cross
We followed John Paul II's Biblical Way of the Cross that
varied from the traditional Way.
Lani, our president, led the way!
Life-size nativity in a cave
Representing the risen Christ
Rather stark Stations with Etna in the distance
Sunday Morning:
Little Sisters of the Poor
Acireale
celebrate their Patron, St. Joseph

| Beautiful Mass Overflowing Chapel |

First time meeting the new Bishop of Acireale
With the Madre and Knights of Malta
Sunday Evening:Franciscan Missionaries Visit ourImmaculate Conception Parish Community
Father Frank and Dana
The Franciscan Missionaries
take vows of poverty, chastity and obedience.
Their mission is to evangelize, and they were in Motta to ring
every doorbell.
Sister and Agata, translator
 
Joyful singing!
After the pot luck and getting to know one another
Another joyful song before we bid, 'Farewell!'
(Little did we know that we had quite a week ahead!
More to come!)
