On this Catechetical Sunday, we express our gratitude and pride for our wonderful team of catechists. Under the capable leadership of Ms. Nelly Gutierrez, Coordinator of Religious Education, they have consistently demonstrated remarkable dedication and love. We celebrate their ministry and pray that it continues to bring them joy and fulfillment.
We kindly remind everyone that the Annual Catholic Appeal envelopes are still available at the church entrances for your convenience. Please take one home as you leave today. We strongly encourage everyone to support this vital cause that benefits our Church and our own parish community.
Classes for our Religious Education program begin this coming Wednesday and Thursday. Therefore, this Monday, September 16 is the last day to register! Give your children the invaluable gift of faith formation, which will benefit them for eternity. All Catholic children must attend religious instruction to receive the Sacraments of Reconciliation, Holy Communion, and Confirmation. Please don’t miss this important opportunity.
If you are an adult who has not been baptized, or have not yet received Holy Communion or Confirmation, we encourage you to join our Adult Sacramental Preparation Program. This program offers weekly meetings to deepen your understanding of faith and spiritually prepare you for the Sacraments. For more information, please contact Deacon Jacob Rodriguez at the parish office.
The Youth Group is hosting a special cash raffle with a $5,000 grand prize to help fund their pilgrimage to Rome next year. By purchasing a raffle ticket for just $10, you not only get a chance to win but also support the spiritual growth of our youth. Please see our youth members after Mass today to get your tickets or visit the parish office during the week. The raffle drawing will take place on Sunday, November 17, during the food sale at the Institute.
For more information on these and other events, please check the bulletin or you may read it here on our website.
