THE JUBILEE YEAR OF MERCY
Catholic School (Grades K-8) Tuition
Assistance Program Requirements
The underlying premise of the Catholic School
Tuition Assistance Program is that financial
assistance is based on need. In order to insure
objectivity, the Diocesan Catholic School Office’s
policy requires that parents complete a financial aid
application form that may be obtained from the
Catholic school the child attends or plans to attend
next year. The deadline for submitting applications
is mid-February. In addition, a letter requesting
consideration for assistance must be submitted to
Msgr. Theroux as soon as possible but no later than
the end of April.
A second premise of the Catholic School Tuition
Assistance Program is that it is meant to assist
those families who are actively involved in the
practice of the faith and in the life of their
respective parish. Irrespective of the financial need,
the following policies must be followed in order to
be considered for financial assistance.
--Families requesting assistance must follow
church law on fulfilling the "Sunday" obligation
to attend Mass. If the child lives with two parents
who are Catholic, both parents must attend. It should
also be by way of exception that a family attends Mass
in a parish other than Holy Apostles.
--At least one parent must be involved in a
parish program/ministry.
--Families must be regular contributors to the
parish budget using the weekly envelopes or through
Faith Direct.

8:45-10:15am. Any questions may be directed
to Renee McInnis @ [email protected]
Please support the businesses
who advertise in our weekly bulletin.
When the weather is snowy or icy, people
sometimes wonder if we cancel Mass. For weekday
Mass, we are not always able to have the snow
cleared on time and it is not always safe to be
driving. Therefore, from now on, our policy will be
that for weekday Mass, if school is cancelled
or delayed in Cranston due to snow or ice,
there will be no morning Mass. If there is an
intention for the Mass, it will be rescheduled.

Stewardship
“Thought of the Week”
The US bishops’ pastoral on stewardship reinforces
today’s reading from I Corinthians: “Because it’s
individual members do collectively make up the
Body of Christ, that body’s health and well-being
are the responsibility of each one of us. We all are
stewards of the Church.”
Time and Talent - We wish to thank all those
parishioners who are always so willing to pitch in
and lend a helping hand. Their participation
contributes to the vibrancy of our community.
Treasure – Thank you for your financial
support.

Youth & Young Adult Survey
(for Ages 12 – 29)
Are you a young Catholic between the ages of
12-29?
If so, the Diocese of
Providence needs your help. We
know that 85% of young Catholics
stop practicing their faith within
10 years of receiving the
Sacrament of Confirmation and we want to do
something about it. We need to find fresh, new
ways to keep young Catholics, Catholic! Please
help us by going to www.catholicyouthri.com
and clicking on Youth & Young Adult Survey.
Be sure to share this link with your friends and
family so that they can help too! Be a part of
the solution….Your opinion matters! This is
your chance. Parents and grandparents spread
the word.
The members of the Holy Apostles Memorial
Society are individuals whose
families at the time of their death
request that in lieu of flowers,
donations be made to the Holy
Apostles Memorial Fund. No other
charity may be listed. This is the only requirement.
Their names will then be inscribed on the wall in
the hallway connecting the Community Life
Center to the main church under the heading of “I
am the Resurrection and the Life”. In
addition to having the name inscribed on the wall,
there will be six Memorial Masses said each year
for all the deceased listed. Mass will be celebrated
on: Christmas, Easter, Mother’s Day,
Father’s Day, Feast of the Assumption,
Feast of All Saints.
