You are now registered to enjoy the free parish subscription which gives you 24/7 access to over 300 quality Catholic on line programs, 99+ movies, 101+ audios, & 98+ E�Books. Today is the First Sunday of Advent.! Study: Advent, Session 1:!Prepare the Way!or listen to:!Prepare!the Way of the King.!On Saturday, The Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary, study:!Footprints of God, Mary: The Mother of God!or watch: Ready Reasons:!Was the Immaculate Conception Necessary? or!Is there Biblical Proof of the Immaculate Conception?! !!

FROM THE ARCHDIOCESE ... the Archdiocese Development Office is hiring a Planned Giving Manager to establish legacy giving for parishes, schools, church institutions ... if you have planned giving or paralegal experience, please contact Elaine Filimon at [email protected] ... GOOD LUCK!!

GOD PARENTS ... there is often misunderstanding about being a god parent ... according to the directives of the universal church (Canon Law) a godparent needs to be a practicing Catholic who has received the Sacraments of Initiation and, if married, needs to be married in the Catholic Church ... practicing Catholics means that the person is a registered member of a parish who attends Sunday Mass and who will be a role model of the Catholic faith for the child ... sounds reasonable!!

REASONS TO BE REGISTERED IN THE PARISH ... helps to support the church, identifies you as a practicing Catholic, allows you to receive sponsorship certificates and other church documentation, gives you access to the sacraments, helps you to register for the elementary school or the religious education program, gives you a community of believers.!
