Dear Saint James Family,

 

Did you know that the Catholic Church encourages you to visit other parishes from time to time? The Church does this as a reminder that, while it good to be dedicated and serving in your own parish, we are Catholic it is healthy to stop in and be present at other parishes on occasion to facilitate relationships within the wider Church. The Church is so intent on encouraging this that she offers a plenary indulgence to anyone who visits a parish on its solemnity of title. I bring this up because this Sunday, July 24 is the solemnity of title for Saint James. Come and make a visit and obtain an indulgence. Learn more below in my purgatory write-up.

 

I am also writing this email because it was pointed out to me that I had listed the festival date incorrectly. All is now corrected below. 

 

PETTING ZOO, MAGIC SHOW, FOOD, FACE PAINTING, GAMES LIVE MUSIC, MONEY GRAB!

Pet and interact close up with goats, chickens, ducks, and rabbits. Hear your favorite songs performed by Jeremy Dobbs. Step into a glass case swirling with money and see how much you can grab. Assemble a craft. Win a cake. Have your face painted. Laugh and be entertained by a kid friendly magic show.

RESET YOUR PURGATORY TIME THIS SUNDAY!

ONLY AVAILABLE AT SAINT JAMES CATHOLIC CHURCH

 

A plenary indulgence (removal of all temporary consequences of sin, i.e. time in purgatory) is granted to the faithful who make a visit to a parish church on the Solemnity of its Title, and there devoutly recite an Our Father and the Creed. Standard conditions apply: a firm dedication to stop sinning, sacramental confession, Eucharistic Communion, and prayer for the intentions of the Pope. Learn more about indulgences in this great video by Fr. Mike Schmitz.

 

Saint James the apostle is normally celebrated every year on July 25, but any parish named after Saint James has special permission to move the feast to the nearest Sunday and celebrate it as a Solemnity (memorial is the lowest type of celebration, feast is next, solemnity is highest). So, come and join us this Sunday at the only Catholic parish named after Saint James in the state of Florida and hit the purgatory time reset button!
