We wish a warm welcome home to Father Ruane, back from his, well
deserved vacation. We really missed you while you were gone. We all hope you had a Great time in Ireland
visiting family and friends. Welcome

Labor Day
It sounds like a contradiction, but
on Labor Day everybody usually rest from their labors. We encourage parishioners to
participate in Mass, and to make it a little easier for those who would like to rest a
little bit, even those who have no jet lag Mass on Monday morning will be at 9:00am.
Choose Life
A former worker at a Dignitas suicide
clinic told the London
Daily Mail that she began
to see the clinic not as a compassionate place for ending lives but as a money-making
killing machine taking advantage of the disabled and terminally ill. (Life News, 6/1/09)
PLEASE REMEMBER TURN YOUR
CELLPHONE OFF
WHILE IN CHURCH!
Thank you for you cooperation.
Why
Catholic?
As described in former copies of our bulletin and
will be further explained from the pulpit. This should be a very
fruitful and enjoyable several weeks. And expect a gentle reminder in the form of a letter
from Father Ruane. We
will be signing up the 19th and 20th of September and we hope all of our parishioners
will participate.
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.
Bible School
Instructions in our Catholic Faith is
one of the more important elements of any Church Family. We are hoping and praying that
all of our children, little ones through 12th grade, through the efforts of
their parents, will participate in our bible school classes each Sunday morning, beginning
at 10:15am for one hour. Registration
will be after Mass this Saturday & Sunday and also after Mass next Saturday &
Sunday.

Housekeepers
for this month are Roseann Flem,

Inspirational
Quotes:
1.
It is better to be silent and be considered a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.
(Abraham
Lincoln)
2.
A skeptic is a person who, when he sees the handwriting on the wall, claims it is a
forgery. (Morris
Bender)
3.
What sunshine is to flowers, smiles are to humanity. They are but trifles, to be sure, but
scattered along lifes pathway, the good they do is inconceivable. (Joseph
Addison)
4. I
can forgive, but I cant forget, is only another way of saying, I will
not forgive. Forgiveness ought to be
like a canceled note torn in two, and burned up, so that it never can be shown
against one. (Henry
Ward Beecher)
