A Special Guest Is Coming from Cross Catholic Outreach on the weekend of May 17-18

Fr. Farrell E. “Mac” McLaughlin will be visiting our parish next weekend (May 17-18 2025) to speak at all the Masses on behalf of Cross Catholic Outreach, which was founded to forge a stronger and more supportive link between parishes in America and the priests and nuns serving the poor in the Caribbean, Africa, Southeast Asia, and Central and South America.

Father McLaughlin was ordained in 1971 in the Diocese of Providence,
Rhode Island. He spent several years in youth ministry as a teacher, chaplain
and spiritual director. Most of his priesthood was spent in parish work, where
he served as a pastor for 25 years. Fr. Mac has done postgraduate work in
alcohol and substance abuse and recovery. He has given Matt Talbot Retreats
and 11th Step Retreats here in the U.S. and in Prince Edward Island. He
belongs to the National Catholic Council on Addictions, the Guest House
Institute, the Spiritual Advisor of the Diocesan Council of the St. Vincent de
Paul Society and the 4th Degree Knights of Columbus.

To learn more about the ministry of Cross Catholic Outreach and its mission to mobilize the global Catholic Church to transform the poor and their communities materially and spiritually for the glory of Jesus Christ, please visit CrossCatholic.org/outreach.

Called by Name Campaign

This Called by Name Campaign is not only an opportunity for us as individuals to be open to God’s calling in our lives. It is also a chance for us to allow God to call others through our invitation.
Is there someone you know who may be called to the priesthood or religious life? Help us to encourage them by sharing their name and contact information.
To share their information online, go to our website:
www.harrisburgvocations.org or fill out the form in the envelope we have provided and drop it in the collection basket. The candidate needs to be 15-40 years old and single. Those whose names are provided will receive a communication from Bishop Senior and the Vocations Office with encouragement and resources to hear and respond to God’s call for their life – no matter what it is.
Thank you for your generous participation in Called by Name Campaign. With your help, this initiative will bear fruit for our diocese for generations to come.
