ARE YOU SOMEONE OR DO YOU KNOW SOMEONE WHO… • Has expressed an interest in becoming Catholic? • Was baptized Catholic as a child, but has not celebrated the Sacraments of Confirmation and Eucharist? • Has you been sitting in the pew next to your Catholic spouse for years wondering what you have to do to become Catholic? Father Charles will be leading those interested in becoming Catholic through a small group to learn more about our faith. Sessions focus on the teachings and experience of Church and prepare individuals to celebrate the Sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist during the Easter season. There will be an inquiry session on Sunday, October 9th at 9:15 a.m. (between the morning Masses) for those who are interested.
A Second Collection will be held the weekend of September 17/18 for Catholic Communication Campaign. The Catholic Communication Campaign (CCC) is a marvelous way to share the gospel message of God’s mercy and love. Pope Francis asked us last year, “to offer the people of our time storylines that are, at heart, ’good news.”’ By supporting this collection, you help to spread the Good News to people around the country and around the world. Your gift also makes a local impact because half of your donation stays in your diocese to support local communications projects.
