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.

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
