General Announcements 

Mental Health and Addiction Healing Mass with Archbishop Thompson is set for Aug. 10

The Mental Health and Addiction Ministry Healing Mass, to be celebrated by Archbishop Charles C. Thompson, will take place at SS. Peter and Paul Cathedral, 1347 N. Meridian St., in Indianapolis, at 6:30 p.m. on Aug. 10. The sacrament of reconciliation will be offered at 6 p.m.

The Mass is for all those suffering from mental health difficulties and addiction, their families and those involved in addressing mental health issues.

Following the Mass, Archbishop Thompson will offer individual blessings, and prayer teams will conduct prayer sessions with those who need extra prayer time in the cathedral. At the same time, refreshments and resources will be available in the cathedral rectory parlor adjoining the cathedral until 9 p.m.

The Mass is sponsored by the archdiocesan Office of Human Life and Dignity. For additional information, contact Brie Ann Varick at 317-236-1543 or bvarick@archindy.org.

The training is designed for those who feel called to be a witness to the sanctity of the life of unborn children.

The training is free, though freewill donations will be accepted. Workbooks, snacks and lunch will be provided.

The deadline to register is Aug. 1.

To register or for more information, contact Pat Conwell at 812-290-3574 or Sara Yunger at 859-801-1293, or visit cutt.ly/DCSidewalk23.
