YOUTH MINISTRY TEASERS
Questions Jr. Highers are asking about their faith
Who is Jesus?
What is the secret of life?
What is faith?
What is a "good" Christian?
How does God communicate with us?

Do you have an answer?

Council of Catholic Women...
Thank you to everyone that participated in our first three projects of the year.  Because of you, three huge boxes were shipped to the Appalachian Christmas Project, every bead was represented at our "Living Rosary" and Turkey Dinner was a great success!  Our December project is the Annual Christmas Party.  It will be held December 18 in the school cafeteria.  In the past years we have brought items for Our Lady of Good Council Cancer Home, but this year we feel that the home would benefit more by a monetary contribution so give what you can.  Tickets are $5.00 and can be purchased the weekend of December 9/10 at Church.  New members are welcome at any time of the year.  Our next meeting is November 20, 2000 at 7:00 p.m. in the school cafeteria.  Every woman in the parish is welcome.
