A CALL TO PRAYER

"In addition to the Rosary, I have asked the whole Archdiocese of St. Louis to increase our Eucharistic adoration, renewing our faith in Christ's gift of His living presence. In our Eucharistic adoration, not only do we present our sentiments of praise, adoration, thanksgiving, reparation and supplication to the Lord, but we listen to Him as He offers us His peace of soul and as He leads us back to the Eucharistic celebration of the Mass"

Archbishop Justin Rigali

SPIRITUAL READING 

The Parish has purchased a limited number of books that will give you a spiritual thought for everyday of the year. It is entitled "GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD." The books will be available this weekend until our supply is gone. There will not be a cost to you. However, if you wish to make a donation, please put an envelope in the collection basket. Secondly, we are on a special program from "CATHOLIC DIGEST." Starting in December, we will get a subscription for three months free. If you would like your own subscription you can order one from the magazine or through the Rectory. After February we will not receive any more free copies. I recommend both of these publications and I hope this will help you to fulfill your spiritual quest.

Dear Parish family of St. Joseph and St. Anne:
Our pilgrimage to Rome was Wonderful! The Vatican and Basilicas were awesome to see. We enjoyed everything about it. It was definitely a spiritual experience that we will never forget. Thank you so much for your love and generosity.

Love and Prayers,
Deacon Ron & June
