We are the people of Mary Queen of the Apostles Parish, in Brook Park, Ohio, dedicated to following the example of our Lord, Jesus Christ, through the Scriptures and Traditions of the Roman Catholic Church. We gather together to celebrate, to share, and to be nourished by the Eucharist. We promote religious education, spiritual growth and moral values by being faithful to the teachings of Jesus Christ. To show our love for God and one another, we live our lives committed to the dignity and salvation of each person, and we live our faith through compassion and service to those in need.

MEN'S SPIRITUA,LITY GROUP
MEN’S SPIRITUALITY GROUP AT MARY QUEEN OF THE APOSTLES Have you ever asked - What does it mean to be a Catholic man? What is authentic masculine spirituality? If so, your answers may have touched on thoughts such as - Men need authentic brotherhood. Families need holy husbands and fathers. The world needs men to witness to Jesus Christ. With these and similar questions and thoughts in mind, a men’s spirituality group (yet unnamed) will begin meeting at Mary Queen of the Apostles Parish on the first and third Saturday of each month commencing in October. Video and discussion presentations will focus on centering our hearts on Jesus to grow in faith and courageously live out the mission God calls us to. For further info contact, Bob Huczel at 216.433.1440 x203. Or better yet, mark your calendar and join us Saturday, October 18. The gathering is 9:30–10:45 AM to get us home for our valuable weekend family time.

FORMED.ORG Picks of the Week:
JOHN XXIII: THE POPE OF PEACE This movie tells the life story of John XXIII from his youth through his young priesthood, episcopacy, life as cardinal, and eventually his life as pope. Elected supposedly as an "interim Pope" who would just keep the status quo and listen to the advisers around him, John XXIII proved to be his own man when he surprised the Church and world by calling for the Second Vatican Council.

THE JOYFUL MYSTERIES St. Padre Pio said, “The Rosary is the ‘weapon’ for these times.” This incredible film series takes viewers right to the Holy Land, where these Mysteries actually happened, encouraging deeper reflection and meditation on them.

DIVINE MERCY WITH FR. MICHAEL GAITLEY Renowned speaker and author Fr. Michael Gaitley tells the dramatic history of God's love and mercy as interwoven through the transformative message of St. Faustina, the miraculous appearance of Mary at Fatima, the witness of Maximilian Kolbe, and the world-changing papacy of Pope St. John Paul II.
