CHURCH CLEANERS

  

Aug. 10: Team #2
Aug. 14: Deborah & Ron AuBuchon
(Week 2)

ST. ANNE CHURCH
FRENCH VILLAGE,MO

"If anyone wishes to be first, he shall be the last of all and the servant of all." - Mark 9:35

Throughout the Gospels, Jesus teaches us through His words and through His life that we are called to serve one another. We can serve through our sacrifices of time, talent and treasure. Sacrifice is not a word that many people like to hear. We think it means that we must give up something that we want. However, the literal meaning of sacrifice is "to make holy". In other words, we make our lives holy by giving up some of our time, talent and treasure in the service of God and His Church.

We will observe the celebration of Stewardship Awareness during the weekends of August 15-16 and August 22-23 this year.

Your Personal Intention Cards for Stewardship have been mailed. If you have not received your intention card, please call the parish office.

When we give a gift to someone, usually the gift is wrapped and decorated! The same should happen with our gift to God. Wrap your gift of Treasure in the envelopes that are mailed to you. Using your envelopes regularly is the proper way to support your parish.

Daughters of Isabella

REMINDER: Our next meeting will be August 10th beginning with dinner at 6:00 p.m. Please bring a dish of your choice. Don’t forget your baby items for the State baby shower.

In addition, our circle is making a basket for raffle at the convention. Our theme is a wine basket. Some suggestions are wine, glasses, gourmet crackers, assorted nuts, fancy cookies, candles, corkscrews, coasters, theme napkins and plates, and anything you consider appropriate. See you on Monday!

Please Support

Whenever possible, please support the advertisers on the back of our bulletin. Thank them and let them know you saw their ad.

The picnic is just around the corner and the Country Store will open its doors this year with a few changes. We will have a Silent Auction and raffle off a grocery cart full of food. Donations of homemade jams, jellies, and breads; flowers; fresh vegetables; quilts; fancy work, etc. will be much appreciated. We will also be making small and large size baskets of shampoos, lotions, personal care items, kitchen items, picnic items, etc. for sale. If you can donate any of these items and/or small or laundry size baskets, please call Janet Mecey at 358-0684 or Ruth Hunt at 358-3733.

Special Announcement

In these economic times everyone is looking for a way to cut cost. We are not an exception.

Last year we had a special collection to help defray the cost of our Festival Dinner. It was very successful. This year we are again asking for your help and participation. An envelope will be in your September packet. If you do not have an envelope, please use one of the butterfly envelopes found in the pews and mark "Festival".

Many of our parishioners who have worked very hard in the past are not able to help physically. But they pray for the success of the Festival and support us in many other ways. The envelope in the monthly packet will help them help St. Joseph. I am asking for your prayers and support to help make this Festival another success.

Vincentian Marian Youth

The Vincentian Marian Youth Encounter is scheduled for today, August 9, at the Shrine Church in Perryville, MO. Faith Alive will start the evening at 6:00 p.m. followed by Mass with contemporary Christian music with Fr. Milton Ryan, CM as the main celebrant. After Mass refreshment will be served in the Visitors’ Center. Come celebrate Mass and an evening of fun.
