IN OUR PARISH
PLEASE TAKE NOTE Fr. Stef will be out of town for the priest convocation from Monday, September 24th - Thursday, September 27th. Because of this, there will be a communion service held instead of mass on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of this week.
MAGAZINE DRIVE The children of the parish are selling magazines to help support the parish. If you would like to order or renew a magazine, please contact a St. Catherine child or call the school office, 572-2680 or the parish office, 441-1352. 40% of all sales come back to St. Catherine! What an easy way to support the parish! All orders must be received by October 1st. Thanks for your support!
WHAT A WONDERFUL PARISH FAMILY WE HAVE! We have been very moved by the love, support and prayers from our St. Catherine community during the difficult time since the untimely death of my sister, Linda Barth Woodruff. Our special thanks to Fr. Stef for his support and for helping assure Linda's passage to her eternal reward by administering the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick in her last conscious moments and by concelebrating the funeral mass. We love and appreciate all of you. Dave & Molly Barth
WELCOME
NEW MEMBERS AT PARISH FEST The
Social Life Committee has decided to team up with the organizers of Parish Fest
to welcome our newest members. Instead of having the Welcome Breakfast that was
scheduled for September 30th, they will introduce new members at
Parish Fest, which will be held on Saturday, September 29th
after 4:30 mass in the lower parking. There will be food, drinks, music,
children's games and cornhole. Make
plans to come and socialize with fellow parishioners and meet the newest members
of the St. Catherine family.
PARISH PASTORAL COUNCIL
Our
meetings are on the third Wednesday of every month immediately after Mass
(at about 7:45 pm) in the Library. Meetings are open to all parishioners, but
please contact the parish office or a Council member if you want to request to
add an item to the Agenda. We plan to put the Agenda on the parish website a
week before each meeting. Our focus for this year will be on building spiritual
and social community in our parish. Our members will be wearing name tags
whenever we're at St. Catherine, to encourage parishioners and Council members
to meet each other and to share ideas for improving all aspects of parish life
and ministry.
LOST IN THE BEAUTY OF HER GOD
Is the title of Sister Marie Pierre Semler's exhibit that Fr. Stef
Bankemper will be presenting on Sunday, October 7th at
7:00pm. "When Sister Marie looked at a piece of wood, stone or canvas, she
saw stories, messages of inspiration and the achievements and shortcomings of
humankind." Fr. Stef will guide us in prayer and meditation inspired
from the art. The exhibit will be on display in McCrystal Hall prior to the
talk from 4:00-7:00 pm. Questions call Terri 441-3438.
FLU SHOTS
will be available again
this year on October 20th & 21st in the back of
church. You must sign-up by October 15th in the back of
church, so that we can have enough vaccine available. The times will be
after 4:30pm mass until 6:15pm on October 20th and after 9:00am mass
until 11:15am on October 21st. The cost will be $20. Flu shots
will be free if you present a Medicare card for those 65 and older. This will be
the only type of insurance card that is accepted. If you would like
to help out or have any questions, contact Carol Gessner at 442-5280.

spend there to St. Catherine. Even
if you have completed a form in the past, you have to fill out a new one in
order to be included in the program. Forms
can be found in the back of church or in the parish office. Completed forms can
be dropped off at Remke, in the parish office or to the person selling Scrip
after masses. Also, don’t
forget about the wide variety of gift cards available from Scrip. Whether
you’re going out to eat, picking up pizza or fast food, shopping for every day
needs or filling up your gas tank, we have gift cards for you!
This is the easiest way you can earn money for our parish without any
extra out of pocket cost to you. If
