Mini Bible School…   Like many parishes in our diocese’s we will have a short and enjoyable Bible School June 18^th and June 19^th for last years, K thru 6^th grade. We will begin with Mass at 9:00am followed by a sharing questions and discussion with Father Ruane. The children will go to the class rooms at approximately at 10:00am have class for a required period then Pizza at approximately 11:45am then going home at noon.   

 

Blood Drive…   We are coming to beg again for the gift of life through the very selfless gift of giving blood. Our Blood Drive is June 10^th immediately starting at 10:00am thru 2:00pm. Please sign on the list provided in the vestibule as you leave church. We have gotten a few names, Thank You, but we sure would like to get some more.  

 

Daily Mass …  Now that school is out and there is a little more leisure time, there is no better up bringing for our children then to take them to Mass from time to time and explain its benefits.

 

Sharing Your Blessings … As a disciple of Christ we are reminded to count our blessings, acknowledge God’s gifts to us and express thanks to him. We do this by giving our time, talent and treasure. We sincerely thank St. Peter parishioners who have made a gift to the annual Catholic Service Appeal. God calls us to share what we have to help others, and you have responded to many in need. If you have not yet made your pledge, pledge envelopes are available in the back of the church or you can make a donation online at: www.jacksondiocese.org.

Choose Life…  A veteran researcher into post-abortion trauma, David Reardon, writes that some abortionists readily admit feelings of guilt. “I do feel you’re an abnormal person if you could really honestly say that abortion didn’t bother you at all,” said one abortionist he interviewed. “It goes against all things which are natural. It’s a termination of life, however you look at it.”  (LifeDate, Lutherans for Life newsletter, Spring, 1998)

 

 

Please… If you should happen to be moving out of our parish, please, let us know and if you are new in our parish we would be so grateful if you would register so we can keep our records straight. Thank You
