Latin American Apostolate

Today, there will be a second collection for the support of the Latin America Apostolate. Your generous response will enable our St. Louis priests working in Bolivia to continue their work of service to some of the poorest people in the world. Whether your ability to help is great or small, please share with our St. Louis priests in service to our brothers and sisters in Bolivia.

P. S. R.

If there are any children who were not registered last April for this coming year, parents please do so by calling Sr. Rose at 487-6456. Parents who have children who will be in first grade this year need to register the child if you want him/her to make their First Communion in second grade. One full year of instruction must precede the sacramental year. This is an archdiocesan regulation.

PSR TEACHER NEEDED

We are in need of a fifth grade teacher in our PSR program. If there is anyone who would be willing to share their faith with the children, please call Sr. Rose at 487-6456.

School Registration

QUOTE FROM THE CHURCH'S SOCIAL TEACHINGS

Since there are so many people prostrate with hunger in the world, this sacred council (Vatican II) urges all...to share and use their earthly goods according to the ability of each, especially by supporting individuals and peoples with the aid by which they may be able to help and develop themselves. Gaudium et Spes #69

COLLECTION FOR WOMEN'S ABUSE SHELTER TODAY

Needed items are mostly for babies which would include diapers, baby wipes, and any items for baby's or small children. Personal items for the Mom's could also be used.
