ST. ANNE CHURCH
FRENCH VILLAGE, MO.
St. Joseph School Auction
Plans are being made for the annual St. Joseph School Auction that
will be held in the spring of 2008. This year we would like to be ahead of the game. We
are asking for your help!!!
Starting this month we will be asking for some donated items. Each
month we will have a theme. Items that we receive each month will help us put together
auction baskets. This month the theme is "KITCHEN". We are asking each and every
one of you to bring an item for the kitchen. Please place in the containers provided. We
accept new and like new items.
We understand that one cannot donate each time but if we become
aware of items that can be used, we can shop for on sale items.
Your continued prayers and support for St. Joseph School is
greatly appreciated.
Third Week of Advent
Rejoice!
The third week of Advent begins with Gaudete Sunday. Gaudete,
meaning "rejoice", is the first word of the opening antiphon for the Mass on
this day: Gaudete in Domino semper (Rejoice in the Lord always). The joy of Gaudete Sunday
shows in the use of rose as the liturgical color – for example, on the Advent wreath
and the priest’s vestments.
Prayer Starter for Week 3:
Lord, I rejoice at the Good news of Your coming. Make my heart
ready.
Advent resounds with the theme of reconciliation and the call to
repentance. That call is not about dwelling on our sins and being even more burdened by
them, but the opposite: bringing them to God in sorrow and hope for forgiveness.
Join us Monday, December 17th at 7:00 pm for our Advent
reconciliation service. Three visiting priests will be available to help us approach Jesus
in this sacrament – and to be able to approach him in the Eucharist on Christmas with
a renewed heart. If you cannot make it, please visit St. James, Potosi, Mo. on December
18th at 7:00pm.
