THAT MAN IS YOU PROGRAM
In the first session of the That Man Is You program, we were blessed with 76 registrants. These sessions, held on Saturday mornings at 6:45 a.m. are now beginning a second series of meetings starting January 14th. This is a fresh new program for all men and their teenage sons with emphasis on your Lenten journey. The number of men willing to come on a Saturday morning, week after week, is a testimony to the success of the program. See for yourself the impact this program makes on men across the country! Please register at www.ThatManIsYou.org or contact Ed Price at 614-314-1129.
LANDINGS: WELCOMING INACTIVE CATHOLICS
Landings, a ministry of the Paulist Fathers and St. Thomas Moore Newman Center's Reconciliation Team, is an eight-week program geared toward welcoming returning and inactive Catholics. In this program a group of active Catholics, some of whom are "returnees" themselves, join with participants to share and explore their faith together. Landings offers a safe place to be listened to, a place for understanding and healing, and a place to ask questions. A new session of Landings will begin Tuesday, January 10, at the Newman Center, 64 W. Lane Avenue. For more information, please contact Ed Orazen at (614) 313-7801 or landings@buckeyecatholic.com

SANCTUARY RENOVATION
Our sanctuary renovation is now completed. In March, Father Kavanagh and the Parish Art and Environment Committee presented the renovation plan to parishioners. Diocesan approval was received in July and once associated contracts were awarded, work began. The most visible changes include moving the Blessed Sacrament tabernacle behind the alter (which formerly housed the choir), and the return of the "Lamb of God" cross to behind the altar. Panels depicting "living water" line the altar perimeter. The cloud represents the cloud depicted in the old testament protecting the chosen people. The rays represent the light that guides those who are faithful to the teachings of the Church. The ten main rays represent the commandments of our Creator. The smaller rays, in threes, represent the descendants of King David, his 2700 overseers, who were faithful to teachings and traditions. The copper, gold, and silver rays represent the Holy Spirit. Each ray emanates from the Cloud (Father), the Lamb of God (Son), and complete this representation of the Trinity. Mary holds an Olive branch representing peace. These leaves are also on the organ console surround, along with musical Angels, both also depicted in the stained glass.
