Father
Martin Ruane, Pastor
www.olesouth.net/stpeter email: stpeter@cableone.net
VACATION TIME – Father Ruane will be visiting family and
friends in Ireland during the month of August. He asks for remembrance in your prayers
during this time, and promises to remember all our Saint Peter Church Family in his daily
Masses and prayers. Thanks and God Bless
WELCOME – We welcome Father Al Camp who will take
care of these weekends that Father Ruane is on vacation. It is almost impossible to find a
substitute priest because of the scarcity of priest. So we are most thankful Father Camp
is willing to help us out. Please treat him with kindness and hospitality.
COMMUNION SERVICE – While Father Ruane is on vacation we
will not have daily Mass, because no priest is available. We will have a daily communion
service the same time as our daily Masses. They are made up of daily scripture prayers and
the privilege to receive Holy Communion.
IN EMERGENCIES – If you should need a priest in an
emergency while I am away, call:
Father Messina @ 662-563-2273 or Father Camp @
601-856-5556.
REMINDER – Reminder to all CCD teachers to please
return their CCD workbooks from last year’s classes to: Donna Mumme
LITURGICAL MINISTERS – During these holiday month’s people
are frequently out of town on weekends. Please contact somebody to take your place if you
are unable to serve on your weekend.
USHERS AND LECTORS – We thank our parishioners who serve as
faithfully at ushers and lectors at Mass. We are always in need of additional ushers and
lectors and if anyone is interested please call the rectory or let Father Ruane know.
CHOOSE LIFE – “Why is abortion a bone in the throat
of contemporary culture? Because we all know intuitively that it violates the rules that
make a loving, civilized culture possible. We also know that far from being a
‘victimless’ crime, abortion kills an innocent passenger and maims the unknowing
driver.”

HOSPITAL VISITATION – Please call us at the rectory if you or
a member of your family is in the hospital in Grenada or elsewhere. Hospitals have a
privacy policy that doesn’t make known the people in the hospital. I would like to
visit people while in the hospital if at all possible to pray with them and to give them a
little encouragement.
