                               FATHER’S DAY I would like to wish all fathers, grandfathers, etc… a very happy, peaceful and blessed Father’s Day. We hear much about neglectful fathers but we rarely hear anything about good fathers and there are so many of them too. We will honor our fathers on this Father’s Day with a special recognition, prayer and breakfast after the 9:00 Sunday Mass. God Bless you all.  

 

A Special BreakfastWe would like to show our love and appreciation for our young people who have just    received the Sacrament of Confirmation by having a breakfast after the 9:00am Mass today, June the 21st. It would also be an opportunity to show our love and respect for our many wonderful fathers who often get lost in the shuffle. We wound like to make this a happy occasion and we are hoping as many of our church family as possible will participate in this happy event.

 

Rite Of Christian Initiation Of AdultsThe R.C.I.A. will resume in the fall. If you know of anyone interested in the R.C.I.A., or for more information, please call the Rectory at 662-226-2490.   

 

“Renew: Why Catholic The next segment of the “Why Catholic?” program will resume in October. There will be an opportunity to re-sign or to sign up for the first time in September. We hope that the leaders and groups will continue with parishioners joining the groups for the first time or forming new groups. For more information, call the Rectory at 662-226-2490.

 

Choose Life The impact of an abortion is like a stone thrown into the water, sending out ripples of pain and hurt and devastation in all directions. Fathers of aborted children are the neglected victims of abortion who, once they recognize the moral and spiritual gravity of their action or inaction, may experience deep rage and “a gut-wrenching sorrow” so overwhelming, it can, if not healed, emotionally paralyze a man forever. (Dave Andrusko, NRL News, 10/07)
