The PCCW Ladies will hold their Meeting and Potluck Christmas Party on Dec. 13th in the Columbia Rm. The potluck meal will start at 12:30pm followed by a brief business meeting, the drawing of the sweepstakes winners, & bingo. All ladies are invited. Come and enjoy a variety of delicious food and an afternoon of fun. We will host two foreign exchange students from Columbus High school.

Retirement Fund for Religious: Aging religious need your help. In the United States today, there are more than 33,000 senior Catholic sisters, brothers, and religious order priests. These religious worked tirelessly in Catholic schools and hospitals usually for little or no pay. As a result, many religious communities lack adequate savings for retirement and eldercare. For those receiving envelopes a special envelope to be used for this collection is included in your December packet. For those using ACH, Religious retirement envelopes can be found in the boxes as you enter church. Your gift helps provide medications, nursing care, and more. Please be generous.
Any donations you wish to have included on your December 2015 statement must be dated no later than December 31st, 2015 and must be in the parish office by 10:00am on December 31st.

Communal Penance Services during Advent: 
December 10th Sacred Heart 5:30pm
December 17th St. John’s 5:30pm

St. John’s will also offer more Confession time during the weeks before Christmas. Watch the front of the bulletin where the added times will be listed.


Movie of the Month: The featured movie for December is the Frank Capra classic It’s a Wonderful Life. We will watch this on the big screen in the Columbia room at 3:00pm on December 20th.
