PLEASE RESPOND TO BISHOP STIKA
Bishop Stika’s mailing asking for a pledge to the Bishop’s Appeal
2012 (formerly the Annual Catholic Appeal) is in the hands of
many of our parishioners. If you have received this mailing,
please respond as soon as possible.
The Appeal provides support for seminarian education and care
of retired priests. It also provides funds that help to underwrite
Catholic Education and the work of Catholic Charities. Ministries
here in our parish benefit from our money contributed to this
Appeal. For example, Appeal funds support RCIA and parish
based Religious Education.
This year, the theme of the Appeal is “Coming Together in
Christ”> The Bishop’s appeal offers each of us the opportunity
to be part of the work of the Diocese of Knoxville. We are each
members of our parish, our diocese and the Church throughout
the world. We are called upon to offer our support to the Church
in gratitude for what God has given to us.
God constantly tives to us. His grace is ever present. His
blessings are abundant. We can demonstrate our gratitude to
God and help share His promises with thousands of people
throughout our diocese by making a generous gift to the
Bishop’s Appeal 2012.
Please answer the Bishop’s request and make a generous
pledge. All pledges can be paid in ten monthly installments.
Thank you in advance for your support.
Do you play piano?
We are currently seeking out a parishioner who is willing to share of their time and talent through Music Ministries and accompany hymns at Mass. Our current pianist has rarely missed a weekend liturgy due to the fact that there is no substitute to assist with playing the piano at weekend Masses. If you would be interested, please contact Brian Bacon, Director of Music at 484-9224 or bjbaconjr@gmail.com for more information. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Our Spiritually Adopted Babies are now 1 month old in the
womb. DNA is set within minutes after conception as well as
every inherited human feature is determined. The baby is the
size of a grain of rice and weighs less than an ounce. The heart
starts beating at 21 days (just 3 weeks) before mom even knows
she is pregnant. She has missed her period and a Pregnancy
Test is Positive. She is upset and unsure what to do. We pray
for her to choose life for her baby.
