CYO MEETING – September 30th at 5:00pm there will be
a CYO meeting for the Fall Fest preparations,
further
details next weekend.
BIBLE SCHOOL – We feel we got off to a
very good start last Sunday, Thanks to Donna Mumme and all of the teachers who made this
possible. Thanks to parents and children for your cooperation. Let us work together to
continue to improve.
PLEASE NOTE - That we will have a class for 3
and 4 year olds in our Sunday morning Bible School Classes, all our children
of that age are strongly encouraged to attend.

those who are not of the Catholic Faith but are interested, or any body who is interested
on Tuesday October 9th immediately after the 6:00pm Mass.
CYO – Sunday Oct. 14th,
the 7th thru 12th grade CYO will meet and rap with Father

CONGRATULATIONS – To Chris and Eliana Angela who’s

the 6:00 Mass.
CONGRATULATIONS – To Garth and Tammy Huddleston
who’s daughter Sydney Louise will be reborn in the Water’s of Baptism September
29th after the evening Mass.
DAILY MASS – I hate to sound negative
but the attendance at daily Mass has not been good at all. Surely, more of our good people at Saint
Peter might want to avail of this Great privilege of encountering the Lord in the Holy
Eucharist.
FATHER CARROL – Fr. Carrol who was the pastor some
years ago, for several years, is rather sick at the moment. It would be nice if some of
you who knew him well might send him a card and assure him of your prayers. His address
is;
2795 Charles Byron
Road, Studio #2, Bartell, TN. 38134 Phone; 901-405-3788.
CHOOSE LIFE – “When the choice is made to abort
a child based on a medical diagnosis, be it Down Syndrome or any other number of medical
issues, it is more than quietly ‘terminating’ flesh and tissue. It is ending a God given life.” (Brenda Hanson, “The
Joy Comes from Doing the Right Thing,” NRL News, June, 2007)
POSSIBILLITIES – Faith
makes all things possible; it does not make them easy. (anonymous)
CATHOLIC
