News Blast & Bulletin 10/13/2024
28th Sunday in Ordinary Time
Greetings:
Your bulletin: https://saintspeterpaulpalmyra.org/october-13th-2024/
Here are the highlights for the upcoming week and beyond:
- There will be a second collection this weekend for Hurricane Relief. Please make your checks out to Sts. Peter and Paul and note on the memo line – “Hurricane Relief”. Thank you for what you can do.
- During the month of October, you are invited to show your love for our Blessed Mother, Mary, by leaving flowers on the table placed at her feet. There are vases set aside in the kitchen for this purpose.
- Our flower guild is 2 parishioners strong but we need to expand to a minimum of 6 members. This team will rotate on a weekly basis and concentrate their efforts on arranging flowers each week in the church. The time commitment is less than an hour a week for one person, in most cases. Please see page 6 in the bulletin or contact the office at 434.589.5201.
- The next Youth Group event is a Trunk or Treat on Friday, October 25th at 6:30pm at Sts. Peter and Paul. If you would like to decorate your trunk (as a scene from the Bible or something faith-based) and hand out treats, please sign up, or if you would like to donate treats, please place them in the collection box in the Commons beginning Oct. 5th. We are also in need of volunteers to prepare and serve refreshments on the evening of the 25th. We will pray the Rosary around the bonfire and roast marshmallows for S’mores. Children are asked to dress up in family-friendly costumes: nothing violent or horror-based, no weapons. Contact Celeste at [email protected] with questions, or to volunteer. The final planning meeting for this event is on Tuesday, October 22nd at 6:30pm (SPP).
- 40 Days for Life Fall Campaign: The Knights will stand vigil on Wednesdays (9/25 – 10/30) from 10-11am in front of Planned Parenthood (2964 Hydraulic Road) in Charlottesville. For carpool info or directions contact Larry Boice (434.510.7677). There is ample parking across the street from Planned Parenthood if you want to drive yourself.
- What do Good Shepherds, Ushers and the Bake Sale ministries all have in common? They all need help. If you want to learn more and think you can help, please call the office (434.589.5201) for more info.
- Sts. Peter and Paul Religious Store is open before/after Mass on Saturdays and after Mass on Sundays. You can contact the store via email at [email protected]. During October, make a minimum $20 purchase and receive a free Rosary.
- If you have misplaced any items in the church, come see Karen in the office; it’s where many lost things go.
- If you have recently changed your email address or phone number or signed up for Faith Direct and no longer need envelopes, please send a note to the office so we can update the system and make sure you don’t miss out on any information we have to share with you.
- Here are a couple of visitors who stopped by for blessings from Father last Friday. Say “Hello” to Duffy (dog) and Beasty Boy (cat).
St. Joseph’s News:
- There will be a second collection this weekend for Hurricane Relief. Please make your checks out to St. Joseph and include “Hurricane Relief” on the memo/note line. Thank you for what you can do.
- The Knights are organizing a parish-wide clean-up day on Saturday, October 26th starting at 9:00am. Gutter guards are being installed on the parish hall and help is especially needed for this task.
- Trunk or Treat is happening on Friday, October 25th at Sts. Peter and Paul from 6:30 – 8:00pm. If you would like to decorate your trunk (as a scene from the Bible or something faith-based) and hand out treats, please sign up, or if you would like to donate treats, please place them in the collection box in the hall beginning Oct. 6th. We are also in need of volunteers to prepare and serve refreshments on the evening of the 25th. We will pray the Rosary around the bonfire and roast marshmallows for S’mores.
