Ladies of the parish please mark your calendars! Sr Maria Jacinta will be giving a talk on Mary, Monday, October 17th at 6:30pm in the Guadalupe Hall. Sister will speak on Our Lady as daughter, sister and mother. Understanding these essential roles of Our Lady, primarily her role as daughter of the Father, will help us to grow into our calling to be daughter, sister and mother. Spiritually we are always daughters of the Father, and like Our Lady, this enables us to be sister and mother for others.
Opportunity to Donate to the Annual Turkey Dinner: Due to the rising cost of many items purchased for the Turkey Dinner, our committee is offering an opportunity for parishioners to donate green beans.
We are asking parishioners to donate the L A R G E cans of green beans. They are referred to as #10’s or family size and are approximately 6lbs 6 oz each.
We hope to receive a total of 50 cans. You may drop them off to the parish office, anytime between now and October 31st. Thank you!
Dear Parish and School Families,
We are aware that another fake email, claiming to be from Fr. Jerome, is currently in circulation. Unfortunately, such things are out of our control to stop or eliminate.
Our priests will never send an email or text asking for money or gift cards. This is often done under the ruse of needing immediate help or assistance. It is also important that you look carefully at the senders email address if you receive an unusually or unexpected email from one of our priests; each will only use his established or official email addresses.
Please never send any kind of financial information via email or text to someone claiming to be one of our priests.
Correction: there is no 11:30am Mass on Friday, Sept 23 since SMC will not be in session.
This was printed incorrectly in our past Sunday's bulletin.
OLL/SMC is seeking donations of live and silent auction items for our Annual H.O.P.E. Auction this November. If you are interested in donation items, please contact the parish office at 620-231-2135.
Reminder: Game Day Mass will be celebrated at 11:30am on Thursday, Sept 15th this week. No 11:30 Mass on Friday, Sept 16th.
September 25th is Priesthood Sunday!
This is a day to pray for our priests, in praising God for their courage and their generosity. Like Father’s Day, let Priesthood Sunday be a special day when we make it a point to make our priests feel truly appreciated and special.
Children's coloring cards will be available in this Sunday's bulletin and more options can be found at OLLsmc.org/preisthood-coloring.
