2 Gulf Pine Catholic • February 13, 2026 Diocese of Biloxi Bulletin Board PARISH EVENTS Evening of Intercessory Prayer: Mark your calendars & please join us in praying the Healing of the Family Tree Rosary & Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament & Confession will also be available on Mon., Feb. 16 at 6:30 p.m. in St. Alphonsus Church in Ocean Springs. We will be focused this night on Generational Ancestry Healing & healing from possible patterns of problem areas or bondages within your family bloodlines. The Rosary has been recognized as a powerful weapon in the battle against spiritual evils. Many saints, including St. Padre Pio, have urged the faithful to “pray, hope, & don’t worry,” believing that the Rosary is a spiritual “sword” that protects us from temptation & spiritual harm. This idea is rooted in the belief that the Rosary places us under the protection of the Virgin Mary, who continually intercedes for us. There have been many testimonies to prayer petitions at Intercessory Prayer being answered! Your prayers are so important to God who only wants a personal relationship with each of you & to come to him in prayer through Our Blessed Mother. Please mark your calendars and join us in prayer!!
