RCIA “MEET & GREET”
August 22nd 7:15pm in the gathering space
If you are interested in becoming Catholic, please join Father Jim and the RCIA team for a Meet and Greet this Wednesday at 7:15pm in the gathering space. This informal discussion includes what the RCIA process is, information on when classes start and what your commitment may entail.
We welcome all those interested to come and see all that the Catholic faith has to offer to those seeking a deeper and more meaningful relationship with Jesus Christ, through His bride the Church and His gifts to us through the sacraments.

Join the Parish
Why should you join the parish? If you want to get married, have a child baptized, be a godparent or confirmation sponsor you need to show you are attending Mass. The only way we can determine if you are here is if you drop an envelope in the basket. It's fine if the envelope is empty, it tells us you are here and that is what's important. Our faith calls us to attend Sunday and Holy Day Mass and to regularly receive the sacraments of Eucharist and reconciliation. You can complete the form below and return to the parish office via the collection basket, mail or email. You can use the envelopes in the pews or a blank one from home with your name until your individual envelopes come in the mail. Please understand it's about you're attendance at Mass, not what may or may not be in the envelope!

Blood Drive
|
ALERT! There is an emergency blood shortage and donors are needed now,
especially type O, please schedule an appointment to give on August 19!
Our summer blood drive is quickly approaching and you have an opportunity to make someone whole again – someone like Jacqueline. Jacqueline was born with a congenital heart disorder. At the age of 8, she needed heart surgery, but there was a shortage of type O blood. Her surgery had to be postponed. Thanks to wonderful partners like you, blood donors came through for Jacqueline and she had multiple successful surgeries to repair her heart. Today, she is healthy and thriving. Missing Types often go unnoticed until someone's life depends on them. Imagine if someone you love needed a blood type that was missing from hospital shelves.
All donors who come to give at our blood drive on August 19th will receive a $5 Amazon.com Gift Card via email, as Red Cross's way of saying thanks during this urgent time.

Vacation Bible School
was a splashing success!
Thank you to our dedicated and very hard work team of volunteers led by our DRE Leslie Swayze. They were here long before your children planning and setting up for this great week. When the fun was finished they were back to clean up and store things for future years. Also thank you to the Rockwood Fire Dept for cooling us off in the heat of the day.
We hope to see you all again next year!

St. Vincent de Paul Upcoming Events
First we want to thank you for your generous support. Without you we would not be able to successfully complete our mission of helping local families in need. Our conference helps local families with maintaining shelter, warmth, light, clothing, food and many other needs they have.
This year we will sponsor two children in Haiti, helping them go to school. We donate to the SVDP dental clinic which provides dental care to our friends in need. We can help with simple budgeting, by supplying the tools to help you figure out how to set a goal and achieve it. We can work with you to create simple worksheets to figure out what that goal should be, monitor your progress and guide you in successfully reaching your goal.
The Annual Walk for the Poor is coming up and we are asking you to sponsor us again. WE will do the walking for you. We will have sign up tables the weekend of September 8-9th after all Masses.
You might feel that one person can do very little to change the lives of others. We are here to tell you that you can make a difference everyday. Our SVDP Conference make’s that difference and only thing that it takes for you to join our conference here at St. Mary is an Open heart. Each person has a God given gift to share. Please share yours. You will be welcomed with open arms. Speak to any member of our conference or if you are interested call us at 734 277 5620.
