Almade Twice in the past year we have done surveys of parishioners. The first time was back in February, as part of a pilot program on the spiritual life of Catholics with a national organization, Catholic Leadership Institute. The second time was in July in St. Vitus Church. Both surveys had hundreds of parishioners reply. The July survey had many people seeking the same things as the national on-line survey. These were mostly centered on increasing one’s spiritual life, understanding of the Mass and the Bible, and growth in different forms of prayer. The survey responders also wanted to know how to evangelize, how to defend our Catholic faith when it is challenged, having more information about the Catholic church available to them, and openness to participation in parish events and retreats. Well, to quote Dr. Frasier Crane, “WE’RE LISTENING!” Here are some of the spiritual activities we have or are planning, in response to your survey replies: Father Mike Ackerman is leading a six week course on The Creed every Tuesday in the Marian Room of Mary, Mother of Hope Parish, from 7:00 to 9:30 PM. The Twenty-Eighth Sunday in Ordinary Time The first of my once-a-month Catholic education evenings is on Thursday, October 23rd, from 7:00 to 8:00 PM. I’ll talk about The Pope Francis Effect in the Church, in the parish hall of St. Vincent de Paul Parish, free and open to all. Several parishioners are working on bringing back Christ Renews His Parish, a program of weekend retreats. Look for more information over the next several months. We have scheduled a Ministry Fair for Sunday, March 8, 2015, the Third Sunday of Lent. In each of our churches there will be displays about all the parish ministries and organizations, as well as personal invitations to join one. Again, look for more information as we get closer to this date. The local men’s retreat group, which recently had its third successful gathering in September, has birthed a women’s retreat effort. Both gatherings, for men and for women, will be scheduled for next September. Our new “portal website” www.catholicnewcastle.org, is a great source of information for parish events, as well as adult Catholic learning. Visit it today. Mr. Frank Yeropoli hosts a Catholic Bible Study every other Tuesday in St. John’s Maronite Upcoming Second Collection Next weekend, October 18-19th, the second collection will be taken up at all Masses for World Mission Sunday. Please be generous to this annual diocese -wide collection, which funds mission work in this country and around the globe. There is an envelope in your packet for this collection, and there will be a second passing of the baskets for this important offering. Catholic Church, on West Reynolds Street. The next class is Tuesday, October 21st at 7:30 PM. The next pre-marriage day of reflection for engaged couples is scheduled for Saturday, November 8th, at Mary, Mother of Hope Parish. The following class will be scheduled for the spring of 2015. In response to several questions, I’ll try to schedule a representative of the Marriage Tribunal to come to New Castle to answer your concerns about the sacrament of marriage, divorce, remarriage and annulments. Look for the specific date in a future bulletin. An excellent way to learn about your faith is to give a small amount of time as a volunteer minister. Each parish needs more ministers for Sunday Mass (Lectors, Eucharistic Ministers, Ushers, Choir members, Servers), for educating our children as CCD catechists, and for providing leadership on our pastoral and finance councils. Give me a call and I’ll sign you up! One of the challenges of our Catholic faith is that we are responsible to deepen our relationship with Christ Jesus as we get older. There are many ways to “know about Jesus” and to “know Jesus,” but we have to make the effort to learn them. Take a step today to grow in your Catholic faith. Have You Taken Advantage of Electronic Giving Yet? Going out of town? Feeling under the weather? Bad weather predicted for the weekend? Our new electronic giving program is secure, easy & convenient for you!
