ALMSGIVING – The Athens Catholic Community
has a covenant agreement with Athens County Habitat
for Humanity Partners in Faith. For many years now we
have, as parishes, committed ourselves to a special Lenten Almsgiving practice, raising funds to help build a
Habitat Home for someone in need here in Athens County.
There are envelopes in the pews and at the doors to
both churches; we ask that you use these envelopes to
make a donation to Habitat for Humanity. Thank you
for your generosity.

FIRST HOLY COMMUNION RETREAT - The

 A tour of St. Paul looking at the many symbols
and images along with a review of priestly vestments,
 making of unleavened bread as you
hear the story of the Jewish exodus
from Egypt,
 reenactment of the Last Supper
and the opportunity to taste the
bread and wine while practicing reception of Holy Eucharist; and
 creating a First Communion gift box and prayer candle.
Please pray for the children and their families as they
prepare for the special day.

RELIGIOUS EDUCATION - Happy Easter!
Classes are cancelled this Sunday, April 5. Classes resume next Sunday, April 12; the last day of class
is Sunday, April 19.
EASTER EGG HUNT - Thank you to Father
Mark, Mary Catherine Kennedy, the Athens Catholic
Teens, the Catholic Newman Community, the teachers, parents and all those who contributed
filled eggs for the Athens Catholic Community Easter
Egg Hunt. Your contributions allowed
the children, young and old, to have a great
time as they discovered the connection of
the Easter eggs to our faith.
HIGH SCHOOL BIBLE STUDY - The weekly
Bible Study for 8th - 12th grade students resumes this
Thursday, April 9, from 6:30 to 8:30 PM
in the Holy Family Center.
The Bible Study continues on Thursdays,
April 16 and 23. On the 23rd there will be
Bible Study and a party to wrap up the year.
For more information, contact [email protected]
CONFIRMATION PREPARATION - The Confirmation class meets for the last session of the year
on Sunday, April 12, or Tuesday, April 14, in the
Hall at St. Paul Church from 7:00 to 9:00 PM. Karen
Matteson and Molly Doyle will lead the session
on “The Bible.” Students are asked to bring their
Bible, book and journal.
The Confirmation program resumes on Saturday, August 15, with a one-day retreat.
The Confirmation Team is meeting Tuesday, April
14, at 5:30 in the Rectory at St. Paul. We will begin
preparations for the Retreat and for sessions in the fall.
WALK TO JERUSALEM - Thank you to all those
who have contributed miles towards our Walk to
Mount Calvary this Lenten season! There have been
36 dedicated walkers/runners who have logged
1,570 miles so far! Hopefully this virtual journey has
brought time for reflection, prayers, and an overall
sense of physical, spiritual, and emotional well-being.
Our goal was to collectively travel the 6,098
miles from Athens, OH, to Jerusalem, Israel during
Lent. Earlier this week we were nearing the MidAtlantic Ridge. Since we haven't quite reached our
destination, the walk will continue into the Easter season!
If you haven't joined us yet, you're invited to help log
the miles during the next few weeks until we reach
Jerusalem. To log your miles and to see where we are
on
the
map,

AthensCatholicWalk Keep up the great work and
keep walking!
