WELCOME BACK

A warm welcome back to Father Ruane.  We hope he had a wonderful time visiting family and friends in Ireland.  We are very grateful for his return.

 

RCIA

Tentative plans are to hopefully start and RCIA class the first Tuesday of October, after the 6:00 pm mass.  More details on this from the pulpit, and in the bulletin.  -MR 

 

BIBLE SCHOOL (CCD)

Passing on our beautiful Catholic faith to our children is a great responsibility for parents, Bible School teachers, and Father Ruane.  I am hoping and praying that every family will register their children in our Bible School classes and that we in turn will make every effort to share the teachings of our faith with them.  There will be a table set up outside of church.  Please register your children for classes as you leave mass.

*** September 10 – There will be a Child Protection meeting after mass for teachers, substitutes, CYO

helpers, or anyone else involved with the youth of our parish.

*** September 13 – There will be a special mass at 6:00 pm for Bible School  parents, teachers and

students.  Father will meet with the parents and teachers after mass.

*** September 17 – Catechetical Sunday – There will be a special mass, where we will recognize our

Bible School teachers.  Bible School will begin after mass.

 

CYO

We will kick-off the CYO year with a cook-out at Charlie and Donna Walker’s on Sunday, September 17^th from 5:00 – 7:00 pm.  All youth in grades 7 through 12 are invited to attend.  The address is 416 Country Ridge Rd.  Contact Lisa Thomas, Donna Walker, or Jeannie Logan for more information.

 

HOSPITAL…….. Due to the privacy act, hospitals no longer provide a list of patients for our use as clergy.  Accordingly, I need your assistance.  Please call the parish office when you have a family member, a friend, or relative hospitalized so that I may visit with them and pray with them.   –Fr. Ruane

 

BISHOP’S CUP

The Bishop’s Cup Golf Tournament will be held Wednesday, September 13^th at Colonial Country Club in Jackson at 12:30 pm.  Registration forms are in the back of the church, or call the Catholic Foundation at (601)960-8478 for more information.  The net proceeds will be split between supporting our priests’ retirement and the good works of the Catholic Foundation.
