Attention young people and young at heart!

It is designed to provide people of all ages, but partic-

ularly young people, with an opportunity to

experience a day of faith-filled music and inspiring

prayer with an exposure to the Norbertine tradition.

Its focus is to celebrate the beauty of faith in support

of the New Evangelization by means of Liturgy,

prayer, communion and music.

The Death Of Bingo

After many long years and hard work by so many

volunteers, bingo at Our Lady of Consolation has

come to an end.

We have not been drawing the crowds that we use to

have and therefore, bingo has not been the income

source that we need.

We are grateful for all of the volunteers who have

sacrificed their Friday nights to help with bingo,

especially Gerry Roper and Nancy Fischer.

And thank you to all the parishioners who supported

us by trying to get lucky on Friday nights!!

We are open for fundraising ideas to replace bingo

revenue. Please call the rectory at 610-857-3510

to share your suggestions.

R.C.I.A-Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults

Are you someone who was baptized a Catholic but

never received the Sacrament of First Communion

and/or Confirmation?

Are you someone who has a family member or

friend who is a Catholic and is interested in finding

out more about the Catholic faith?

Are you someone who was baptized in a non-

Catholic Christian faith and are now interested in

converting to Catholicism?

Are you someone who was never baptized and

would like to be a member of our Catholic Church?

If you are an adult (18 years or older) and you

answered “Yes” to any one of these questions, then

the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults is for you.

The RCIA is a faith journey in which you deepen

your relationship with God and make friendships

with other candidates and team members through

bible study, faith sharing, and learning about the

teachings of the Catholic Church.

Adults are then fully initiated into the Catholic

Church through the Sacraments of Baptism, First

Communion, and Confirmation at the Easter Vigil.

If you area interested in participating in RCIA for

this coming year, classes will begin on Sunday,

October 4.

For more information, please contact the rectory at

610-857-3510 or Janice Dagney at 610-857-0511

Financial Peace

The next semester will begin this Wednesday, September 9, 2015 and will meet each Wednesday evening

for 9 weeks, from 6:00- 8:00pm

According to Dave Ramsey, we all need a plan for our money. Financial Peace University (FPU) is that plan!

It teaches God's ways of handling money. Through video teaching, class discussions and interactive small

group activities, FPU presents biblical, practical steps to get you from where you are to where you've dreamed

you could be.

This plan will show you how to get rid of debt, manage your money, spend and save wisely, and much more!

Our first offering of FPU saw 30 people learn about God’s principles for money, develop a game plan to win

with money and encourage other members of the class in their journey as well. We still have room in this next

class for you.

Please, take this step for you and your family and become a member of this FPU class. You will be BETTER

prepared for your Christmas shopping and have the tools to have a peaceful Christmas Season!

One way to find out more information, or to register for the class, is to visit the website,

www.daveramsey.com or email your Stewardship Committee Chairperson at Joedagney@aol.com

Catholic Adult Faith Enrichment (CAFÉ”)

Two Faith Enrichment Classes This Fall

The Prophets: Messengers of God's Mercy

This is a brand new DVD series taught by Thomas Smith, an interesting and dynamic speaker. In this class

we will learn why the messages of the prophets are important to us today and find out how we are called to

be God's voice to others. The 10-week class will meet Thursday evenings from 7-8:30 pm at the SPC, start-

ing September 17. The study guide is recommended, but not required, and costs approximately $25.

To register please email olccafeteam@gmail.com or call Paul Harkins at 610-466-7494 or Sue Brown at

610-857-2026.

The Bible Timeline: The Story of Salvation

This very popular DVD series is presented by Jeff Cavins, and it will deepen your understanding of how God

reveals his Divine plan through Sacred Scripture. Many who took this 23-week class at our parish in 2013

have requested that we offer it again. We will meet Tuesday evenings from 6:30-8:30 pm in Classroom 1 of

the SPC, beginning September 15.

Space is limited, so please register promptly to reserve a seat. You can email olccafeteam@gmail.com or call

Phyllis Reis at 610-857-1079 to register. The study guide costs approximately $35, and you do not need to

purchase a new book if you still have your copy from 2013.

Both of these classes are offered by our Catholic Adult Faith Enrichment (CAFÉ) team. Each evening be-

gins with a video presentation and is followed by a small-group discussion. We have a trial subscription to a

digital streaming program that allows students to watch the videos at their convenience during the months

when the course is taught at the parish. For more information, please email us at olccafeteam@gmail.com or

call a team member using the phone numbers listed above.
