Him I will raise up on the last day. [Jn 6:40] Is God Calling You to Perpetual Adoration? Perpetual Adoration is an uninterrupted Eucharistic devotion in which the Eucharist remains exposed on the altar held in a monstrance. When adorers, individuals or families, look upon the Most Blessed Sacrament, they look upon Jesus, the Son of God. The benefits of this time with Jesus are life changing through: bringing honor and glory to Our Lord through praise and worship, professing faith and gratitude for His true presence in the Eucharist, improving your prayer life and personal relationship with Jesus Christ, praying for the needs of the parish, community and the Church, and spending time listening to Jesus to discover His will for your life. During adoration, how you spend your time is up to you: reading, praying the rosary, meditating, etc. There is no one preaching to you, reading to you, telling you when to stand, sit, kneel, or sing a song! If you have never spent any time in adoration, try going once to the chapel and see if you don't walk away more prepared to take on life's challenges. Volunteers are always needed to serve as adorers for one hour a week as well as substitute adorers willing to fill in when needed. Adorers are needed especially during the early morning hours between midnight and 6:00 AM, so please check inside this week's bulletin for the times that currently need an adorer and contact one of the coordinators. ...our essential commitment in life is to persevere and advance constantly in Eucharistic life and piety and to grow spiritually in the climate of the Holy Eucharist."[Redemptor Hominis, Encyclical Letter 4, March 1979, Pope John Paul II] The Most Rev. Robert E. Guglielmone Sign ups will be after all Masses again this weekend. We ask that each family bring a dish to serve a minimum of 15 people according to the first letter of your last name: Bishop of Charleston / Obispo de Charleston www.sccatholic.org www.themiscellany.org A Matter of Courtesy……..

AUCTION NEWS Our Plans for our First Annual Our Lady Of Peace “Pickers” Auction are well under way and the donations have been coming in steadily. Each week I want to remind those who may not read the bulletin every Sunday, what we are planning. To help offset the cost of upgrading the floors in the Narthex, instead of asking for cash donations, we are asking you to open your garages, attics, basements and even your barns and allow me to “pick” some cool items for auction. Hi! My name is Bob Cope and I am your parish auctioneer. Now I am also your parish “picker”. I want you to call me with your donations!! I have made a number of visits to pick items for the auction and the generosity has been nothing short of miraculous!! I can tell, already, the auction will be a huge success.

For those who have not heard about the auction on January 17th, here is a list of items we would like to have. However, it is impossible to know what you may want to donate so if you have things that are not on this list, call me anyway!! Thanks!!!!!

We need a lot of jewelry!!! It does not have to be gold! Guy related items like tools, hunting, fishing (no guns unless 100 years old) As of this writing I need a LOT more “guy” stuff!! Military gear like helmets, backpacks and more. Your son or daughter has a bunch of gear they are not using!!
