Cy Laurent of Labouré Society on CatholicTV

August 28th, 2010

In July, our monthly speaker was Cy Laurent, Executive Director of the Labouré Society. As stated on their web site, since 2003, the Labouré Society has assisted over 200 individuals into priestly and religious formation through the resolution of financial impediments; substantially, in the form of school loans. Cy gave a very engaging talk, and did a great job of explaining the need to support current aspirants in financial need.

Cy recently appeared on CatholicTV to explain the mission of the Society. The clip can be viewed below:

EncouragePriests.org to promote and encourage priests

April 10th, 2010

CatholicsComeHome has announced a new web site to promote and encourage priests:

A lay Catholic organization announces the formation of a new movement to support Catholic priests called EncouragePriests.org™ . This announcement comes on Holy Thursday, the day Christians celebrate the anniversary of Christ instituting the priesthood and the Eucharist.

Throughout the centuries, over a billion people around the world have witnessed the service and dedication of Catholic priests. Some recall the heroic and sacrificial example of military chaplains, priests who serve in nursing homes and hospitals, fathers who feed the poor, pastors who serve as peacemakers during marriage counseling, or priests who have celebrated a family wedding or funeral Mass.

Serrans scoop ice cream for Altar Servers of Boston

November 3rd, 2009

Members of the Serra Club of Boston recently helped out with the Altar Server Appreciation Mass held in the Cathedral on October 31, 2009. Altar Servers were able to attend a special Mass at the Cathedral of the Holy Cross, followed by an ice cream social in the high school gym.

Serrans helped greet guests, distribute altar server certificates, and even scoop ice cream. The ice cream was sticky and required some extra muscle, but it was well worth it to help reward the altar servers of the Archdiocese of Boston!

Photos of the ice cream social can be seen in the slideshow below.

You can see photos of this event and other Serra Club events at our Flickr site: www.flickr.com/serraboston

Thanks to the Archdiocese of Boston Vocations Office for organizing this event!
