WOMEN OF THE DIOCESE ARE
INVITED………
to participate in a special day of prayer sponsored by the Diocesan Women's Commission. The event, "In My Own Voice: Reflections on Prayer and Personality," will be held Saturday, September 29th from 8:15 AM to 3:30 PM at Nazareth College's Shults Center. Using the Myers-Briggs Personality Type Indicator, the day will offer women the opportunity to grow in self-awareness and become more conscious of the way they most comfortably communicate with others and with God. Cost, including continental breakfast, lunch, and materials is $25.00. Come, relax, pray, and pamper your spirit! Registration can be done on line at www.stbernards.edu. Mail in registration forms are available by calling (585)442-9816. Registration ends September 20th. Ann Argetsinger, IC parishioner, is a member of the Women's Commission and you can reach her at (607) 272-7053 if you have any questions.
SPECIAL MINISTRIES
COLLECTION
On the weekend of September 29th and 30th, the Stewardship Committee is hosting a special second collection to help support our youth ministry program. This collection will help offset the cost for 9 of our young people to attend the National Catholic Youth Conference in Columbus, Ohio November 8-11. If all other fundraising efforts are successful for covering the cost of this trip, your collection contributions will go toward scholarships for other events such as diocesan youth retreats, Catholic Scouting retreats, the Junior High Youth Rally, and the Diocesan Youth Convention to name a few. We thank each of you in advance for your support and continued investment in the spiritual and faith development of all young people in our parish.
COME TAKE PART IN OUR FAMILY MASS
On Sunday, September 30th we will host a "Family Mass" during the 10:30 a.m. Mass. This Mass will feature a contemporary music style involving the contemporary and traditional choir members and will be geared toward young people and families. Even though young people and families are our "target" for this Mass, we hope you will come and be part in the first of three such Masses scheduled for this year.
