“Dedicated to maintaining a welcoming, caring and nurturing faith community grounded in the Gospel of Jesus Christ” SNC Parish Mission Statement Upcoming Events OCTOBER 12, 2014 TWENTY-EIGHTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME We are so grateful to all those in our parish who volunteer their time and talent to make our Parish a place of welcome. One of those groups who work behind the scenes is the Parish Pastoral Council. Our Parish Council is made up of a mixture of parishioners and students. As a council we listen and respond to the Spirit of God at each meeting and prayerfully consider what the Spirit of God is calling the parish to be and become. The council provides the means whereby lay members of the parish, respond to their baptismal commitment and work closely with the pastor and parish team, for the common good and mission of the parish. In dialogue, members of the council and the pastor come to an understanding of the spiritual as well as physical concerns and needs of the people of the parish and broader community. All deliberations are guided by a spirit of prayer, openness to the Spirit, and be in accord with diocesan policies and emphases, as well as the teachings of the Catholic Church. When faced with a major parish issue or concern, all members of the parish should be provided with an opportunity to learn more about the concern and have an opportunity to share with parish leaders, their reactions and suggestions for dealing with it.

Kratz, O. Praem., Abbey Lecture Series – Enkindling Hope: A Calling of the Church in an Age of Soft Despair Christianity is quintessentially a religion of hope because it exultantly proclaims that in God we meet a love that no darkness or evil can ever defeat, a love so faithfully resilient that it never dies. And yet, of the three theological virtues, hope is the most neglected and overlooked. This presentation will address the meaning and preciousness of hope, things that threaten hope, what hope asks of us, and why we should never hope for anything less than what God’s love desires for us. Thursday, October 30 at 6:30 – 8 p.m., reception to follow Presenter: Dr. Paul Wadell, Professor of Religious Studies, St. Norbert College Cost: Free will offering (suggested donation $5) Registration required by October 27 For more information please visit the NCS website at www.norbertines.org BABY BOTTLE FUNDRAISER Who: Members of the St. Norbert College Parish Where: Old St. Joe’s When: October 12th (distribution) through October 26th (collection) Why: This fundraiser raises money for the MOM’s Home, which is a branch of the A&A Alexandrina Green Bay Pregnancy Help Center.
