KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS & CHURCH FAMILY FISH FRY – This Sunday
evening, September 9th at 5:00pm the new officers of the Knights of Columbus
will be installed here at Saint Peter Church followed by a Fish Fry. The food will be
served at the Family Life Center, as many of our Church Family as possible are encouraged
two attended.
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.
BISHOPS CUP – If any of our golfers would be
interested in playing in the Bishops Cup golf tournament on Thursday Sept. 13th at the
Colonial Country Club, Jackson MS. Please
check with Father Ruane and he will provide you a registration form. It might be nice to try to have a team for the
first time from Saint Peter’s.
RCIA – If anybody is interested and we hope
there is some, in finding out more about our Catholic faith, or if you are not Catholic
and are interested in studying the Catholic faith. Please let Father Ruane know or call
the Rectory at 226-2490.
BIBLE SCHOOL TEACHERS – We will have a very important
meeting with all our bible school teachers at 6:00pm Wednesday September the 12th. We will discuss intent of importance before we
begin our bible school classes on Sunday the 16th of September.
BIBLE SCHOOL – It is one of our great, great desire
to have every child in our parish, little one’s through the 12th grade in
our Parish Religious Education Program. So we will be holding registration this Sunday
after the Mass, for convenience, sake outside the Church.
There will be a $10.00 registration fee, if this will be a burden in any way let it
not deter you.
CHOOSE LIFE – U.S. Rep. Chris Smith (R/NJ),
authored the law, “The Stem Cell Therapeutic and research Act of 2005.” which
provides for an increase in the nation’s supply for cord blood and creates a national
registry to match cord blood for those in need. Stem cells in umbilical cords have already
proven successful in possibly hundreds of cures and treatments. Rep. Smith pointed out that, “Stem-cell
research options that are ethical, that are already yielding successful medical therapies
and that are showing promise for treating many additional diseases and conditions are the
types of research where our resources should be invested.”
CATHOLIC CHARITIES – Catholic
charities would like to invite you on our next hurricane rebuilding trip. Please join us
Sept. 19-23 in Pass Christian. All skill levels are welcome but we appeal especially to
those with home building knowledge and experience. Volunteers must be at least 18. Meals
and lodging will be provided but individuals are responsible for transportation.
Carpooling can be arranged and volunteers can attend all or portions of the trip. For

USHERS AND LECTORS – We thank our parishioners who serve as
