PRIESTHOOD SUNDAY: Last Sunday of September
Priesthood Sunday celebrated the last Sunday of September (note change of date).
Priesthood Sunday was begun by the National Federation of Priest Councils in 2001 to honor the priests in the U.S. It has been celebrated annually on the last Sunday of October. In recent years, the date for celebrating National Vocation Awareness week was moved to the full first week of November. In order not to celebrate both events so close together, Priesthood Sunday will now be celebrated on the last Sunday of September. This year Priesthood Sunday will be September 29, 2109. Promotional materials will be distributed in late July.
COLLECTIONS AND APPEALS: June 2019 pamphlet

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP
(for the August 10/11 Bulletin)
Environmental Stewardship Tip for Summer: Did you know that the third greatest human contributor to carbon emissions is food waste? As much as one third of the food raised or produced does not make it from farm or factory to table. (Drawdown, Ed. Paul Hawken, p. 42) Take advantage of the availability of locally grown fresh fruits and veggies this summer that come right from farm to table. This helps eliminate waste, supports our local farmers, and treats us to God’s bounty.
