St. Leonhard’s International English-Speaking
Roman Catholic Parish
Frankfurt am Main, Germany

Calendar for 2010

 


NOTES:

Following most Masses on Saturdays and Sundays, you are welcome to join us for coffee, juice and snacks in the Parish Hall.
Dates when there is no social after Mass are noted below.

The § sign indicates weekends when Mission Entwicklung Frieden (MEF) international peace and development ministry in Frankfurt sells Fair-Trade foodstuffs, including selections of coffee, honey, wines and sweets, in the courtyard outside church following Mass. Proceeds help finance the Good Shepherd III project to provide sheep or goats to refugees returning to the Dreventa and Srpska regions in the north of Bosnia-Herzegovina.

The Ω sign indicates dates when the Parish Lending Library is available after Mass, usually the last Sunday of every month.

Underlined times indicate a change from a day’s normally scheduled Mass time.
Boldface indicates locations of events taking place away from St. Leonhard’s Church or Parish Hall.
Tentatively scheduled events are noted with the * sign.
Weekday numbers in red indicate public holidays in the State of Hesse.
