Announcements
2nd Collection
Bishop John Kudrick has requested that we have a collection for those who’ve been afflicted by the natural disaster in Pakistan. Thank you for those who shared their bounty last week. Please be generous this week.
Birth of the Theotokos
When we celebrate the birth of the Theotokos, the Virgin Mary, the Mother of Our Lord and God, we also celebrate her parents, Joachim and Anna. We are grateful to Mary for being so ready to do God’s will. We are grateful to her parents, who raised her to be faithful and obedient to God. Her birth, like her life and death is directed to our Lord Jesus Christ. She said, “Yes” to give birth to our Savior Jesus Christ. Will we give birth to God the Word in our hearts, minds and souls?
Are You Interested?
Fr. Sid wants to know who is willing to be an Epistle Chanter, a member of a new Benedictine Oblate Group, or would like to attend a Life in the Spirit seminar at our parish. Talk to Fr. Sid or John D.
Saturday’s Work Day
The St. Athanasius Maintenance Department invites all Knights of Columbus members and able-bodied members of the parish to the September 11 Service Day, from 8 am to 4 pm. Service to our community is a fitting memorial to those lost in defense of our country. We are going to push for closing out a number of outdoor maintenance activities on the Church, Hall, Rectory and Garage. Bring your old clothes, gloves, a hat, and a friend. A recent visitor to our parish from Muncie, Indiana is planning to attend. Come and work side-by-side with our gracious visitor.
