Our Confirmation candidates will be hosting an Advent
Adventure on Sun., Dec. 7th at St. Joseph Church
and Hall (because of our 3 halls, it is the largest). This

meeting fellow members of the Body of Christ in a fun,
prayerful, and interactive setting while learning about or
refreshing their knowledge about Advent as a season of
repentance, preparation, and joy. Because we will be setting
up various centers for this event, we will need to ask you to
sign up to participate. Sign-up sheets will be placed at the
back of each church the weekend of November 15-16 or you
can call the Religious Ed office and leave your name and the
number of people attending this intergenerational event.
In the past I have asked your support of our Sacramental
prep candidates through your prayers. Please consider
showing your support by attending this event in addition to
the prayers you are saying. —- Meg Hough

Family Perspective
Sometimes our own homes can feel like
marketplaces with the many demands and
expectations placed on our children. Do you ever
become angry at all of the “things” going on in
your lives without any downtime to relax,
refresh, and be at peace with your loved ones?
Stop. Take notice. Invite the Prince of Peace to
calm your whirlwind lives. The family is the
“domestic church”, after all.

Fr. Dan’s Musings:
Where are our parishioners? Each
October all parishes in the
Diocese count weekend Mass
attendance. At St. Michael the average for the 3
Masses is 501 out of a membership of 2,193 (23%).
The average for the Mass at St. Joseph is 227 out of a
membership of 549 (41%). Of course, people from
both parishes go to both churches, and the 9 a.m. Mass
attracts more people for Religious Education.
2,193 + 549 = 2,742, our combined membership. 501
+ 227 = 728, our combined attendance (27% of 2,742).
