Greetings:

- Calling ALL Catholic students in grades 8 – 12: The Knights are sponsoring their annual Essay Contest once again. Your essay should describe some everyday obstacles to living a life of authentic faith, and how to overcome them while providing examples from your own life. Entry forms are available in the parish office or from our website. Please turn in your entry to the office by November 30th, 2021 for consideration. (p. 4)
- The youth of the parish need you! The CCD program and the Youth Group is short of volunteers. Please prayerfully consider giving of your time and talent to help nourish the youth of this parish. Contact John Verga at [email protected]. (p. 4)
- Please note: the week of October 11 – 15, Fr. David will be away so there will be NO daily Masses, Adoration, and Benediction. Fr. will be back in time for confessions next Saturday.
- Correction: Our next Debt Reduction collection is November 6th & 7th. (p. 6)
- We are still trying to drum up memories for the Sts. Peter and Paul album. Whether you’ve been here long-term or just a year or so, we want to hear from you. Have you ever put together a scrapbook? That’s kind of what we are trying to do but instead of it being one person or one family, we want a collection of memories from many of our parishioners. Maybe you’re still trying to come up with some entertaining thoughts: that’s GREAT! Maybe you’re thinking of a “then” and “now” story: WONDERFUL! We want to hear them all. You can submit them in person or via email at [email protected]. (p. 8)
