SOME OF THE WONDERFUL EVENTS HAPPENING IN OUR PARISH...

RCIA INITIATION PROCESS has resumed. We meet Tuesday evenings at 7 p.m. in the Ave Maria Building. If you or someone you know is interested in learning more about the Catholic Church, please give Carey Parker a call in the Church office at 252-0738. There  is also a need for parish sponsors to walk with our Candidates and Catechumens. It is a great way for life long Catholics to learn more about their faith. See Carey to learn more about this wonderful ministry.

 

GODLY PLAY (our program for 3-5 year old children) has begun during the 10:00 a.m. Sunday Mass on the ground level of the Ave Maria building.  We do need a few more helpers to keep this and the nursery running this school year!!  If you can donate your time one Sunday a month, please see Kelly Curry or Carey Parker.

FUTURE EVENTS

PILGRIM VIRGIN OF FATIMA HERE AT ST. PAUL

Thursday, September 2^nd after the 2 school Masses a short 15-20 minute presentation will be given by one of the “custodians”. At 6 p.m. there will be a holy hour with the rosary prayed, a 25 minute presentation and Benediction. Do mark your calendar and join us.

NOVEMBER 1 and NOVEMBER 2
Solemnity of All Saints and Commemoration
of All the Faithful Departed

Saint Paul used the word saints with a lower case s to refer to all of the Christian community. These two days celebrate both those the Church recognizes to be saints (with an upper case S) and those whose status the Church does not; that is, everyone who has died in the peace of Christ. In Latin American countries, November 2, el dia de los muertos, is particularly significant. Families remember the dead by deco­rating altars in their homes and by decorating the graves with sugar skulls, special bread, marigolds, and pictures of their loved ones. On All Saints and All Souls, we remember that the Body of Christ is not limited to this time and place, but includes all those who have gone before and will come after.

NOVEMBER 21
Solemnity of Christ the King

Christ the King and the week following mark the end of the liturgical year. On The Thirty-third Sunday of Ordinary Time for Year C, the readings from 2 Samuel, Colossians, and Luke will explore what type of ruler Jesus is: head of the Church, co-creator, and reconciler. The Gospel relates the exchange between Jesus on the cross and the two thieves crucified with him. One of the thieves recognizes that Christ’s power is very different from physical or political power. This understanding will allow the thief a place with Christ in paradise. The truth is, we do not know when or how we will meet Christ. But it is our confident hope that we will be drawn into unity with God at that time and that Christ will reign over all.
