PARISH NEWCOMERS WELCOME We encourage all of our new parish family members to
try to be with us for our Christmas Supper, so that we can acknowledge them and welcome
them. This will include anybody who has come to our parish in the last year or two.

O. some of the parents,
we thought it would be nice to have a bake sale this Sunday night in conjunction
with our Christmas Parish Supper.
The Knights of Columbus will be
raffling off tickets for the hand made leaded glass Sean of the Madonna. John Artman made
and has donated this stain glass portrait of Mary and the Baby Jesus. The drawing will be
held on Dec. 14th at our Christmas dinner. Donation tickets will be $2.00 each
or 3 for $5.00. All proceeds will go the CYO for the use
in traveling to their up coming convention.
R.C.I.A. We are taking a break until after
Christmas to give everybody a chance to get ready for the
Birthday of Christ. Watch bulletin announcement for next meeting.
FAITH ENRICHMENT…There will be a Faith Enrichment
workshop for all who participated in the first session of
“Why Catholic?” and any other interested person. The convenient workshop
for us here in Grenada will be at St. Francis of Assisi in Greenwood, Jan. 11, 2009 from
3:30pm to 6:30pm.
CHOOSE LIFE
…Despite efforts to downplay abortion’s
roles in its lucrative business, Planned Parenthood has become responsible for nearly a
quarter of all abortions performed in the United States. And while the organization
advertises itself as nonprofit, its latest annual report shows American’s top
abortion chain setting records in revenues—over a billion dollars. (NRL News, April, 2008)
