THE EUCHARISTIC ADORATION CHAPEL, adjacent to the Parish Center must continue to be a very important powerhouse of prayer for us and for people in our area. Hours of adoration are on Mondays through Fridays from 9 AM to 10 PM (11 PM on Tuesday and Friday). WE NEED MORE ADORERS TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERY HOUR IS COVERED. Please consider signing up for an hour or being on the substitute list. Contact Marie O’Leary at 467-1982.
CASE TRAINING The Diocese of Rochester requires volunteers who work with children, youth or vulnerable adults to participate in Creating a Safe Environment (CASE) training. If you plan to volunteer for a ministry that involves working with children, youth or vulnerable adults, you will need to take the class on-line from your home computer or attend a training session. If you prefer in-person training, the current class schedule at St. Kateri Parish is as follows: Friday 7/10 11:00 AM, Thursday 7/16 11:00 AM or Saturday 7/25 11:30 AM. Please call or email Kathy Beauchamp at 484-1810 or email lmcommunity3@gmail.com for further instructions.
FURNITURE DONATION THROUGH WEGMANS. We would like to express our deep gratitude to Wegmans from whom we received a generous grant of furniture for the parish center to help outfit offices, meeting rooms, and religious education classrooms. Did you know Robert Wegman grew up on St. Paul Boulevard and was a student at St. Thomas the Apostle school? Our LMC member Chris Vargas volunteered her knowledge and help with applying for this donation. Please stop over to see the wonderful changes. A big thanks to Chris and to Wegmans!
AS SUMMER-LIKE WEATHER CONTINUES, please be reminded that proper attire is required for attendance at Mass, even on warm or torrid days. Short pants, halter tops, gym shorts, beach wear, etc. are not appropriate in church. We should not “dress down” for Mass. We should dress neatly and modestly out of respect for the House of God and the sacred mysteries celebrated here. Thank you for your cooperation in maintaining an atmosphere of prayerfulness and reverence in the presence of God.
NOTE OF THANKS. We would like to acknowledge an anonymous donor for the candles to be used in the five hanging, antique sanctuary lamps and one floor lamp surrounding the Tabernacle. God bless the benefactor for offering to pay for these candles.
ONE WEEK TO GO! Bishop Matano will be at both Masses next Sunday, July 19. Beginning at 12:30 that afternoon, he will be joining us for our community picnic. There will be burgers, hot dogs, Italian sausage and drinks. Please bring a dish to pass. If you are bring a cold dish, please make sure it is surrounded by ice. There will be games for the kids, and fun for all! A free will offering will help offset our costs.
