Coffee and Donuts… We will begin our coffee and donuts
next Sunday September 27th after the 9:00 Mass. We encourage our people to stop
by for a little friendly fellowship before Bible School and Adult Ed.
Bible School… We are asking all our bible school
children and parents to remain in church, this Sunday after Mass, for a few words in
conjunction with the beginning of our Bible School classes and a special blessing for our
Sunday school teachers and children. If any children have been at Church on Saturday night
please make every effort to join us after the 9:00 Mass in Church Sunday morning.
PLEASE REMEMBER – TURN YOUR
CELLPHONE
OFF WHILE IN CHURCH!
Thank you for you cooperation.
“Why Catholic?”… We begin our sign-up for our next
session of “Why Catholic?” at the
Masses this weekend. Again
we emphasize that this session dealing with the Sacraments, the Liturgy and the R.C.I.A.
should be rewarding and knowledgeable.
Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults…The 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 or let Karla know. RCIA is basically a detailed course of
instruction on the Catholic Faith, composed of three parts; 1st Period:
A time of questions and answers from the people interested. 2nd
Period: The teaching and explanation of the main doctrine of the Church Faith. 3rd
Period: Spiritual growth normally taking place during the Holy Season of Lent.
Quotes:
1.
When
the archer misses the mark, he turns and looks for the fault within himself. Failure to
hit the bull’s eye is never the fault of the target. To improve your aim –
improve yourself.
(Gilbert
Arland, Writer)
2.
Don’t
be afraid to make a mistake. But make sure you don’t make the same mistake twice. (Akio
Morita)
3. Too many people
overvalue what they are not and undervalue what they are. (Malcolm
Forbes 1919-1990 American Publisher)
4. The person who removes
a mountain begins by carrying away small stones. (Chinese
proverb)
5. “Being miserable
is a habit. Being happy is a habit. The choice is yours”. (Tom
Hopkins, Sales Trainer)
6. I am a big believer in
the “mirror test.” All that matters is if you can look in the mirror and
honestly tell the person you see there, that you’ve done your best. (John
McKay)
Choose Life… When abortion claimed the lives of
both her unborn grandchild and her daughter, Mrs. Eileen Smith said she and her husband
Tom experienced a ‘baptism of fire’ into the pro-life movement. She vowed that
she would tell Laura’s story in the hope that at least one woman would chose life
after hearing it…. Since then, she has heard about several… young women who have
turned away from abortion after hearing about Laura’s death. . (NRL
News, May, 2008)
