The next Kairos weekend is ORU30 which goes from 9/26-29, 2024. As we have done in the past before the start of a Kairos weekend, we come to you asking for Prayers.
1) Cookies: these must be purchased as packages of cookies and not homemade. Please do not provide chocolate coated cookies. Preferred cookies are Oreos, chocolate chip and other similar dry cookies. A plastic container labeled KAIROS will be in the back of the church to collect your cookies. Starting the weekend of September 7-8.
2) Meal Tickets: Meal Tickets cost $10 each, which buys a meal for a prisoner attending the weekend. We need you to print on it your first name only and what town you live in. These tickets allow a prisoner to realize that someone from the outside world was willing to be generous and let them know that we are all children of God.
3) Prayers: Prayer Sheets will be in the back on the table next to the Meal Tickets for those who will pray for all of us volunteers and prisoners attending the weekend. You need to print your first name only and your town.
Pietro Tomassi and Russell Tessier will be in the back following each Mass, the weekend of September
21/22 with both the meal tickets and prayer sheets.

Catechetical Sunday is a day to recognize those who serve as catechists and share their faith in Christ. This special collection supports the ministries of faith formation and evangelization. Half of the collection remains in the parish. The rest supports faith formation throughout the diocese.
If you haven't already done so, make plans to attend and experience blessings that come from a day of Eucharistic recollection and reflection on Saturday, October 12. Our presenter will be Stephen Binz, a Catholic scripture scholar who once led the Little Rock Scripture Study program, is a popular speaker and is the author of over two dozen books. He has led pilgrimages to biblical sites and sacred places throughout the world. The day will begin with 9:00 am Mass and include three talks from Steve, time for reflection and lunch. Our time together will conclude by 3:00 pm.
While we are always ready to help someone find out more about the Catholic Church and/or be formed in the Catholic tradition toward a possible commitment through sacraments and initiation, the Fall is a good time to get started! If you or someone you know is interested, please call Fr. Bill at 501 209-2502 for more information. It is always hoped that we can do this in a group setting with multiple inquirers, so please respond soon.

The second of the FORMED five-part series, "Bread of Life: The Eucharist in Galilee" is "Take Heart, I AM". It addresses the time after the first multiplication of loaves. Dr. Tim Gray reads from scripture, while standing in the Holy Land where Jesus stood and taught on the Eucharist. Take the time to go on FORMED and learn that Christ' teaching on the Eucharist, the source and summit of our beliefs, wasn't reserved solely for the Last Supper. Obtain your free parish subscription to FORMED by going to www.FORMED.org to register.
