Matthew: The King and His Kingdom
This study program from Ascension Press shows how Jesus fulfills God’s promises to Israel and establishes his kingdom on earth. Through references to the Old Testament promises of God to his people and the messages God sent to them through the prophets, the Matthew bible study program provides the key to understanding the rest of the New Testament and Christ as the fulfillment of God’s plan.
Matthew portrays Jesus as the true King who fulfills the Law the people of Israel have failed to keep and who introduces the new law that will accompany the New Covenant. In this 24-part study of the Gospel of Matthew, presenter Jeff Cavins explains how Jesus is challenging and empowering us to a new level of holiness and shows how we must be thoroughly immersed in the kingdom of heaven on earth, the Church, to live it. The study will be facilitated by Holy Name parishioner, Tekla Bedwell.

Beginning the first week in October, Holy Name will be hosting a Traveling Madonna Program. A statue of our Blessed Mother will rotate weekly between households. Each household is asked to pray the rosary each day while the Madonna is at their home. Prayers are for your own intentions, but also for our Holy Name Parish, our Catholic Faith and our world. Anyone wishing to participate and have the “Traveling Madonna” in their home, please contact Therese Brandon at tbrandon8@att.net or the parish office. Signs ups for host families will also begin at the September 20 weekend Masses.
