Holy Trinity starts Crossways Course

St. Mary offers Christian initiation program

St. Mary Church in Hudson will begin its 2010-11 Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults program Aug. 31.

This is a communal process with four key stages:

* Inquiry, when those interested can learn more about the Catholic faith and ask questions;

* Catechumenate -- for those who choose to remain in the RCIA process, the learning continues with a stronger focus on education and developing a deeper understanding about what it means to be Catholic;

* Purification and Enlightenment -- the final steps leading up to receiving the sacraments; and

* Mystagogy. During this post-initiation stage, participants explore ways to live this new life and join a new Christian community more fully.

There is also a Rite of Christian Initiation of Children which runs concurrently with the adult session.

Classes at St. Mary Church, 340 N. Main St., will begin Aug. 31 from 7 to 9:15 p.m.

Call Donna Rakotci at 330-715-1262 or e-mail her at drakotci@roadrunner.com for more information.

Redeemer Church to dedicate building

The church will serve refreshments and host fellowship following the service. Redeemer church has been in the area for 15 years. It purchased the building on West Streetsboro Street after its former occupant, the Evangelical Covenant Church of Hudson, closed in 2009.

Community Chapel welcomes newcomers

The women of Hudson Community Chapel will help new residents get to know the community at a newcomers brunch Sept. 9 at 9:30 a.m. at the church, 750 W. Streetsboro St.

The brunch, which will be held in the conference room, is followed up by a weekly class which is designed for women who are looking for fellowship, friendship and a way to get plugged in to their new area.
