Announcements
Dormition
The Dormition of the Theotokos is celebrated this upcoming Saturday (vigil Divine Liturgy) and Sunday, August 15. The traditional rule for the Dormition Fast is a strict abstinence this week thru Saturday, August 14. On the Dormition feast day we bless flowers (because flowers were discovered in her tomb after her body was taken into heaven), herbs (used for medicinal purposes in the summer heat which was conducive to many infectious diseases), and plants.
The annual eparchial pilgrimage to the Shrine of Our Lady of Mariapoch in Burton, Ohio starts with opening liturgy on Saturday, August 14 at noon. It concludes with a Hierarchical Divine Liturgy on Sunday, August 15 at 3:30 p.m. For more details see http://www.mariapoch.org/pilgrimage2 or ask at the rectory.
Woman’s Conference
The 7th annual Indiana Catholic Women’s Conference is scheduled for September 18th. It is being held at The Performing Art Center at Cathedral High School. Fr. Sid will be hearing confessions at the conference. Please mark this event on your calendar.
Fund Raising
Thanks to Bill F. & Marge H. for preparing the hall prior to Thursday’s bake day. Al Z., his grandson Alex, Harry & Cherie K., and Courtney helped John bake on 8/5. Michelle O. & Marge H. helped label & wrap the 85 rolls & 4 trays of pumpkin logs over 2 evenings – yes, wrapping is a very big job. Danny E. cleaned the hall. It was a nice group effort. Joe K & Richard M hung drywall in the storage building during the sweltering heat this past Wednesday. The markets on Saturday, 8/7, did well thanks to the efforts of Danny E., Paul S. and John D. God grant our volunteers many blessings for your hard work.
There’s a good selection of scrip cards & certificates for sale so ask John for your favorite vendors scrip.
