October is Respect Life month!

In light of the coming elections, Bp. Michael Burbidge, the Chair of the U.S. Bishop’s Committee on Pro-Life Activities, has sent out a prayer which Bishop Checchio is asking all of us to pray between now and Election Day:

The Prayer for Life to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament

Jesus, you came that we might have life—and have it in abundance. Together with the Father and the Holy Spirit, you form us in our mothers’ wombs and call us to love you for all eternity. As your most precious gift of human life is attacked, draw us ever closer to your Real Presence in the Eucharist. Dispel the darkness of the culture of death, for you are the light that shines in the darkness, and the darkness cannot overcome it. By the power of your Eucharistic Presence, help us to defend the life of every human person at every stage. Transform our hearts to protect and cherish all whose lives are most vulnerable. For you are God, forever and ever. Amen.

ST. CATHERINE’S KIDS’ CLUB

GRADES 3-6

Don’t miss out on all the fun!!  Our first gathering is this Friday, September 13th from 6-7:30 in Fellowship Hall.  It’s not too late to join.  Parents can sign kids up whenever they can attend.  Monthly meetings are held on the 2nd Friday of each month.

Please bring a bible with you.  The Catholic Children’s Bible by St. Mary’s Press or the NIRV Adventure Bible for Early Readers (New Int’l Readers’ Version) is also easy to understand.  I am keeping it simple by teaching the kids how to find a bible passage.  We will try to read one at each of our meetings.

We will bring Jesus into our lives by building new friendships and extending kindness to our parish and community.  Games, movies and trips with parental chaperones will be an exciting part of our club.

 We will work on presenting a play during the Christmas season to the residents at the Country Arch Rehabilitation Center.  Date and time TBD

Look for signup forms in the display case at the exits of the church.
