JANUARY 25, 2015
Have you never been baptized? Were you Catholic but
didn’t receive the other sacraments? Were you baptized
in another Christian faith and now want to become
Catholic? Well then, R.C.I.A. (Rite of Christian Initiation
of Adults) is something you might consider joining. We
will gather together to learn about the basics of faith
and the Catholic Religion. The process will culminate with
Confirmation and being received into full communion at the
Easter Vigil. The first (organizational) gathering was held this
past week. If you were unable to attend but would like
information, or still like to register for the program, please
call Fr. Dave at (715) 623-2024.
SACRAMENT PREPARATION
Preparation classes for First Reconciliation and First Eucharist
began this past week. Letters have been sent out with details.
If you have a child in second grade or older who is in need of
preparation and have not received a letter, please call or email
Sue Brettingen 715-623-3100 as soon as possible. These
classes are for students and parents of all three parishes:
SS. Mary & Hyacinth, St. John and St. Wenceslaus.
Group A meets on scheduled Mondays, and the meeting is
repeated for Group B on the following Thursday. All classes
meet in the Faith Formation Center (SS M/H parish center),
from 6 to 7:30 pm.
LITURGY OF THE WORD FOR CHILDREN
The Liturgy of the Word for Children is during
the 9am Mass, children ages 4 thru 8 will
be invited to come to the front of church to receive a blessing.
They will then follow the catechists to the Church Hall to hear
the Gospel message in age appropriate words and activities. All
students are invited even if they are in Faith Formation classes or
attend All Saints Catholic School.
PROTECTING GOD’S CHILDREN
If you plan on volunteering and/or working with children or
vulnerable adults the Green Bay Diocese requires that you
complete a Virtus (Protecting God’s Children) training session.
This 3.5 hour awareness session will be offered on Monday,
January 26, 2015, beginning at 6:00 PM at
SS. Mary & Hyacinth Parish Center, 819 3rd Avenue, Antigo,
in Room #6. Sue Brettingen will serve as the instructor. The
“Protecting God’s Children” program is designed to instruct
adults of the Church that to protect children, one must have
continuous awareness and vigilance. This awareness session
makes trainees understand the signs of child sexual abuse, the
methods and means by which offenders commit abuse, and five
empowerment steps one can use to prevent child sexual abuse.
Preregistration is required, and if you plan on attending, log
on to www.virtus.org and click “registration” to begin. If
you do not have online access, but are interested in signing up,
please contact the parish or school where you volunteer or work
to register in advance.
Today marks the beginning of Catholic Schools Week
- a special time to celebrate our faith. Please look
over the bulletin insert and see what fun and exciting
events will be taking place at our school this week. We would
love to have you join us by attending mass on Wednesday morning
and the Lip Sync that evening. Come and celebrate with us!
