A
SYNOD ON SYNODALITY
Millions of Catholics across the
Country and around the world are being called to communion, participation and mission
by our Holy Father Pope Francis. He is asking that we assemble in a “synod” by
sharing our thoughts on the pastoral connectivity of our Church. This is the
start of an important journey together, to listen to and to discern the
realities, needs and hopes of the faithful. While individual responses are
anonymous, the overall results of this survey will be presented to Bishop Larry
J. Kulick and then to the Holy Father at the Ordinary Synod of Bishops in
October, 2023, in Rome. A survey will be in the bulletin, a copy in the
Catholic Accent and also online at www.dioceseofgreensburg.org/synod. You can also use the QR code on the
survey, which you can scan with your cell phone so you are able to complete the
survey online.
A collection basket is in the
entrances of the Church for any response surveys brought to Church, all of
which will be sent to Bishop Kulick at the Diocese. Visit by clicking on A Synod on Synodality to read more.
WANTED—COUNTERS
TO HELP COUNT THE WEEKLY OFFERTORY RECEIPTS
We are looking to recruit a few more
volunteers to help with money counting of the weekly collections. Needed are
up-to-date clearances for those who are interested, and the Parish Office will
be glad to help with getting them. Please call the Parish Office for more
information.
CHILD
PROTECTION ACT
As the obligation to
attend Mass has been lifted and more families with young children are present,
and because of our support of the Child Protection Act, it is recommended that
a parent always accompany their child to the restroom downstairs in the Social
Hall.
LITURGY
OF THE WORD FOR CHILDREN
During the 11:00 a.m.
Mass on Sundays, Liturgy of the Word for Children is held. A liturgical
experience about breaking open the Word of God for little people ages 5-11, the
children are gathered so they can be helped to better understand the Word of
God. They are sent in a group with their leaders before the Readings and return
to the congregation after the Creed. No sign-up is necessary.
FUNERAL EULOGIES (Family Remarks): Please select the Sacraments tab and select Funeral
Eulogies.
