Healing MassMass this coming Friday November 6th is the First Friday of the Month. We are encouraging as many people as possible to participate in this Mass of Healing, where we pray to God for health of mind, soul and body. This Mass will be at 10:00am Friday morning. Hopefully our Knights of Columbus will furnish a little breakfast so we can have time for fellowship and conversation.  

 

All Souls… The month of November in our Catholic Church is traditionally, the month in which we remember, with love and prayer the souls of our dear departed ones. Masses during the month of November, unless otherwise requested, will be offered for the faithfully departed. 

 

SpecialThis Tuesday November 3rd we will have a special Mass at 6:00pm for all of our young people grades 

Mass    7 thru 12. The talk during Mass will be especially geared toward our young people. Mass will be                                                                                                                             

followed by a hamburger supper accompanied by fun and fellowship. We are hoping that all of our young people        

will participate in this special evening and they will not be expected to come to Bible School on Sunday Nov. 8th.                                   

It is very important that our young people Grade 7 through 12 be with us for this Mass and Celebration.

 

Grade SchoolWe will have a similar Mass and celebration for our little ones through the 6th grade. Details to be announced.

Choose Life Perhaps true sainthood consists of accepting challenges and relying on God to rise above them. A pregnant woman pressured and confused feels abortion is the only solution. Yet in the struggle against this temptation, there is always grace to do what is right. “God will not let you be tested beyond your strength. Along with the test, he will give you a way out of it so that you may be able to endure it.”  (1Cor. 10: 13)

 

                                              PLEASE REMEMBER – TURN YOUR

                                                                CELLPHONE OFF WHILE IN CHURCH!

Quotes: 1. “No one is in control of your happiness but you; therefore, you have the power to change anything about yourself or your life that you want to change.” (Barbara DeAngelis, Author)    2. Action is a great restorer and builder of confidence. Inaction is not only the result, but the cause of fear. Perhaps the action you take will be successful; perhaps different action or adjustments will have to follow. But any action is better than no action at all.  (Norman Vincent Peale)   3. And above all things, never think that you’re not good enough yourself. A man should think that. My belief is that in life people will take you at your own reckoning.  (Anthony Trollope, 1815-1882, British novelist)    4. The fault finder will find faults even in paradise.  (Henry David Thoreau, 1817-1862 poet)                                                  ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
