Thank you for your support!
World Mission Sunday
THIS weekend embraces World Mission Sunday. We celebrate this day by remembering our baptismal call - to bring the Gospel to all! The collection today for the Society for the Propagation of the Faith supports the work and witness of the Mission Church, as it provides for priests, religious and lay leaders who offer the Lord’s mercy and concrete help to the most vulnerable
communities in the Pope’s missions. Thank you for your generosity.

Religious Education
DRE: Lynette Forbes-Cardey, 320-629-3911 [email protected]
Religious Education
Elementary Religious Education Sessions and the Hybrid Model: The Pine City Elementary School will begin its Hybrid Model for the Elementary School this week. This will make it challenging for 4th, 5th, and 6th graders to get to Religious Education on Wednesdays, since they will not be in the school building on Wednes- days. Our plan to maintain in-person Religious Education for as many students as possible is:
·
1st, 2nd, and 3rd graders continue coming to Religious Ed. directly from school on Wednesdays,·
4th, 5th, and 6th graders come to Religious Ed. directly from school on either Tuesday or Thursday, whichev- er day of the week they will be in the School Building,·
No changes to the Jr/Sr High students. They will continue to meet at 6:30 on Wednesday evenings.Remember--this schedule may need to change, please continue to be patient and flexible as we strive to do the best for the children and youth of our parish!
Registration is Still Open and Required: We are still accepting registrations for Religious Education for children and teens. Packets are available near the entrance of both churches. OR, you can download and print the forms from the Religious Education page of the Parish Website. Forms can be returned to the Parish Office or Religious Education Office; sent via U.S. Mail;
or sent with your child/teen to Religious Education.
Registration is required.
Still need volunteers! Volunteering with Religious Education not only serves the young people of our parish, but volunteers report learning more about and growing closer to Our Lord, His Church, and His People.
If you are able to volunteer as an Elementary Catechist or Assistant OR serve as a Small Group Leader with Jr/Sr High girls, please give Lynette a call or email.
Sacramental Preparation
Confirmation Registration: Reminder! There are still several 11th & 12th Graders whom we are expecting to participate in the Confirmation Preparation, but have not yet registered. Also, teens in 11th Grade are expected to participate in Religious Education on Wednesday nights as well as the Confirmation Preparation Sessions. Here is the link: https://tinyurl.com/y384f37x this will help us plan and communicate for Confirmation Preparation.
Confirmation is scheduled for February 7th, 2021.
Any questions, please call Lynette.
THANK YOU!

GOOD movie!
October 18: The Divine Plan
This movie explores in-depth the pivotal bond between Saint Pope John Paul II and President Ronald Reagan. Surviving strikingly similar near death experiences (attempted assassins just six weeks apart), they confided to each other a shared conviction: that God had spared their lives for the purpose of defeating communism.
October 24: (To Be Determined) Come join us for our final Sunday movie!
Spend your afternoon enjoying fellowship and a really good, current, faith based movie! You will be glad you came!
Please join us each Sunday in October!
