Prayer for Labor Day

On this weekend, when we rest from our usual labors, loving Father, we pray for all who shoulder the tasks of human labor—in the marketplace, in factories and offices, in the professions, and in family living. We thank you, Lord, for the gift and opportunity of work; may our efforts always be pure of heart, for the good of others and the glory of your name. We lift up to you all who long for just employment and those who work to defend the rights and needs of workers everywhere. May those of us who are now retired always remember that we still make a valuable contribution to our Church and our world by our prayers and deeds of charity. May our working and our resting all give praise to you until the day we share together in eternal rest with all our departed in your Kingdom as you live and reign Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen

from the Archdiocese of Detroit

Congratulations to Deacon Dennis who will celebrate 15 years of ministry as a deacon on Thursday, September 8th 2016. We rejoice with Deacon Dennis on this special occasion and offer him our prayerful support as he continues his ministry in God’s vineyard.

He/she will also provide support for the twice a month 2nd year Wednesday evening Confirmation classes and assist with the retreat.

Hours range from 6-10 per week including preparation, set up and attendance at the evening sessions. Time period is August through May. Bilingual ability is a plus. Interested persons should contact the parish office for an application. For more information feel free to contact Jan at 256-353-2667 or jgile@annunlord.com.

Please consider that Annunciation of the Lord Church continues to be open for Mass, numerous activities and the Sacraments. During these summer months your generosity through Faith Direct can help provide the consistent resources we need to operate our parish and ministries.

Visit www.faithdirect.net and use our church code: AL724

Stewardship "For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not first sit down and estimate the cost, to see whether he has the resources to finish it.?" While we have delayed building our bell tower for now, our faith and our building fund contributions keep alive the expectations that it will eventually get built.

An easy way to support our school is to purchase gift cards (Scrip). You pay the face value of the card, however the school is able to purchase them at a slight discount - the difference goes to help our school. Scrip is available in the Gathering Space on the weekends after Mass.

Cuidemos a nuestros niños (Protección de menores)

Por favor pedimos a los padres de familia que estén pendientes de sus hijos en el estacionamiento, a la hora de la Santa Misa y durante la Misa. Mantengan a sus hijos bajo su supervisión, no dejen que sus niños vayan solos al baño, no permita que se queden jugando en los pasillos o en la pila Bautismal. Ustedes son responsables de sus hijos. Evitemos un accidente. Ayude a mantener limpios nuestros baños, no deje que sus hijos jueguen, con el jabón, con el agua, papel de baño o papel toalla, lo tiran al piso y queda muy sucio.

Para celebrar sus 15 años, necesita: 1. Haber recibido el sacramento de la confirmación. 2. Haber asistido a cuatro pláticas pre-quinceañerales

que dará la Hermana Teresa después de la misa de la una de los domingos. Las que quieran celebrar su quinceañera Octubre, 9, 16, 23 y 30, asistir a las clases de doctrina para jóvenes los

domingos. 3. Hablar con el padre para fijar fecha; no haga

planes hasta tener la fecha fija. 4. Un mes antes de la quinceañera hagan el favor

de entregar $200.00 en la oficina de la parroquia a la secretaria, Anne Palmer. Esta cantidad es para ayudar con los gastos de mantener el edificio.

5. Si usted quiere el coro en su celebración, hablar con ellos para ver si están disponibles.

6. Confesarse antes de su celebración.

Para recibir el Sacramento del Matrimonio:

1. Entrevista 6 meses antes de la boda con el Ministro de la Iglesia que los va a casar (el Sacerdote o Diácono) para cumplir la investigación pre-nupcial.

2. Hablar con el Ministro para escoger la fecha de boda.

3. Si se consideran por Católicos, la novia y el novio deben tener el Sacramento de Bautizo. Lo ideal es que tengan también los Sacramentos de 1ª Comunión, y Confirmación. (Si están viviendo juntos en unión libre o casados por el civil la situación cambia y deben hablar con el Padre para saber lo que necesitan para casarse).

4. No haber estado casado/a por la Iglesia previamente; o una copia de la anulación del Matrimonio; o un certificado de muerte de su esposo/esposa.

5. Asistir a una plática pre-matrimonial. 6. Acta de Bautizo reciente, no la que tienen

guardada. (Por lo menos 3 meses antes de la Boda) Mandar traerla a su País de origen.

7. Licencia de Matrimonio o copia del acta de matrimonio civil. En cualquier corte de un Condado de Alabama les dan la Licencia. Pagando lo que está estipulado por el Estado. Para obtener su licencia de Matrimonio necesitan llevar Identificaciones, tales como Pasaporte, licencia de manejar, acta de nacimiento, etc.

8. Un mes antes de la boda hagan el favor de entregar $200.00 en la oficina de la parroquia a la secretaria, Anne Palmer. Esta cantidad es para ayudar con los gastos de mantener el edificio.

9. Confesarse antes de la Boda. 10. Si usted quiere el Coro en su celebración,

Ministerio especial, Caritas.

Por favor donen leche en polvo y comida para bebés. Lleve sus donaciones a la oficina de la Parroquia, en nuestra comunidad tenemos mucha gente necesitada y tan pronto lo recibimos se nos termina y a veces no podemos ayudar a algunas familias, en dificultades económicas.

La Iglesia ayuda a los necesitados. Nosotros somos la Iglesia. Que Dios les bendiga por compartir sus dones con su prójimo.
