In my homily last Sunday I spoke about the "call of God" to do His work coming throughout our lives, even in our retirement years.  That call for some of us, may be to serve in the liturgical ministry, especially at Mass.  For some, it may be to serve as a "Helping Hand" to someone in need (call Cathy Wedwick at 915-8456 or Pat Widlowski at 922-1395) or pick-up an application on the table in the hallway of the Education building.  And for some, it may be to participate in our prayer chain which means accepting requests for prayer for people who need the help of The Lord because of sickness or other serious needs.  Call Kathy Oesterle at 922-3552 or Suzy Gieringer at 915-9777 if you would like to serve in this ministry.  Finally, the call to help the hungry in our area (which seems to grow louder these days) will hopefully lead you to begin (or continue) to bring non-perishable food items to church on the weekends to support the efforts of Jackson House and perhaps (if there's plenty of food) the Food Pantry at Harvey's Chapel Baptist Church in Mountain Pine.  The call from God is ringing out at all times and in many ways.  Won't you answer "yes" to one, or some, of these calls?  The results will be very rewarding.
