PARISH CENSUS
Sincere gratitude to all who
cooperated in our effort to update our parish census.
We know that we missed some of our families and we ask you to take the time to fill
out the census that we give you today. Thanks
for your help in completing this project.
RCIA
We continue
to invite anyone who would be interested to stop in and join us at RCIA class. Class is on Tuesday evenings and begins around
6:40. This week we will continue the Ten
Commandments and review our past classes.
THANKSGIVING
On
Thanksgiving Day, we will have mass at 9:00 a.m. In
place of a regular offering, we ask you to bring non-perishable food items to be given to
the hungry. Please keep the items with you in
the pew. We will then have an offertory
procession where you will bring them to the altar. We
will have a special prayer for those who brought the food gifts, and for those who will be
receiving them.
SINCERE GRATITUDE
Thanks to
the Knights of Columbus for the wonderful breakfast they fixed for us on Sunday. Thanks also for the very good turnout of our
parishioners who shared in this event.
CONGRATULATIONS
Congratulations
to Tony and Jennifer Glorioso, whose infant child Anthony was reborn in the waters of
baptism this weekend.
THINKING OF PRIESTHOOD?
For those
thinking about the priesthood, a Jackson-area group meets periodically for prayers and
discussion about faith and vocation – with no commitment or expectations – just
the opportunity to connect with others who have similar interests and questions. CONTACT: Father
Kent Bowlds, vocation director, 601-944-9844, frkent@bellsouth.net.
DAILY MASS
The eucharist is a great source of
God’s blessings. I feel that we have some
more people who could avail of
this blessing from time to time. I encourage all who are able, to attend daily mass
whenever possible.
PLEASE REMEMBER – Let us think carefully before we order.
When a box arrives, usually a bill arrives
shortly thereafter. Please also remember to
check thermostats, lights and doors when leaving our buildings

LADIES AUXILIARY
The Ladies
Auxiliary will have “Keep Christ in Christmas” cards for sale in November. If you are looking for
gifts for
any occasion, including Christmas, they also have religious articles available for
purchase. Please
contact Rosa
Buzzarde or Connie Fariss for more information.
PLEASE NOTE
The scripture readings for the daily
masses are printed on the back of the bulletin. We
encourage you to try as
a family to read these readings during
the week so you will be united with those who attend daily mass and we
will be united as a church family.
HOSPITAL…….. Due to the privacy act, hospitals no
longer provide a list of patients for our use as clergy.
Accordingly, I need your assistance. Please
call the parish office when you have a family member, a friend, or relative hospitalized
so that I may visit with them and pray with them.
–Fr. Ruane
CRY ROOM
In our churches, the purpose of the
cry room is to help people with little babies, or small children who may be crying, or
need attention. I’m asking, as your
priest and friend, if you have left the crying stage, please leave the room for those with
little children who need it. PS – Even in
new churches, the cry room is being built intentionally small to keep members from
slipping in there. – Fr.Ruane
