of Peace will, for the 7th year, be participating in Operation

this bulletin. Be watching for sales on goodies, toiletries,

with the collection.

The 71st Pizza Sale for the Our Lady of Peace School

gift certificates to local restaurants. The proceeds

The Old Rectory garage space returned to original
use via a generous donation – During their stay in
the old rectory, the Franciscan Friars converted the
garage into their refectory. In doing so, they removed
all the hardware for opening the garage doors so that
the doors could no longer be opened. To make the
garage usable again, the parish had to hire a garage
door company to reinstall the track, the springs, the
motors, etc. A nonparishioner – a neighbor of one
of our Knights of Columbus – donated to the parish
two new garage doors with all of their hardware and
installation. Restoring the functionality of the doors
will allow the garage to be used in support of various
parish functions and events. This was a most generous
gift. Please pray that God may continue to bless this
anonymous donor and his/her loved ones.
OUR LADY OF PEACE PARISH PROJECT
OPERATION BUCKEYE was formed with the sole purpose of sending boxes to our
troops in Iraq and Afghanistan as a way to thank them for their efforts and to bring a
touch of home to them. The boxes contain food items, toiletries, entertainment, hygiene
items and letters of appreciation all wrapped with good wishes of love and support for the
wonderful job they are doing.
The physical conditions many of our troops endure are difficult and they are separated
from their loved ones for long periods of time. OPERATION BUCKEYE hopes to bring
a touch of home and lift the spirits of the troops. SEE THE BACK OF THIS FLYER for
a list of items included in the boxes, as well as our good wishes.
OPERATION BUCKEYE provides caring civilians the opportunity to show their
appreciation and respect to the men and women of our military stationed in hostile and
remote regions of the world.
If you have a family member or friend stationed in Iraq or Afghanistan, please forward
their name and APO# to: Wayne King at (614) 268-3355 or E-mail [email protected]
and we will be happy to include them in this project.
We welcome any school or youth group wishing to be a part of this effort. We encourage
you to post this list in your workplace and give others an opportunity to send their
appreciation.
BOXES WILL BE IN THE GATHERING SPACE FOR THE NEXT 2 WEEKENDS
TO ACCEPT YOUR DONATIONS.
ADOPT-A-BOX is a way for individuals to show their appreciation and support for our
troops. OPERATION BUCKEYE will provide the packed boxes; your $10 donation will
cover the cost of postage. DETAILS will be available after all Masses on November
8th/9th and 15th/16th. Knights of Columbus and the Hospitality Committee will be
available to answer questions and assist you with your Adopt-a-Box. Checks should be
made payable to: Operation Buckeye.
HALLOWEEN CANDY—bring in all your leftover candy and treats. The candy is a
great filler for the boxes.
As we all continue to pray for peace and the safety of our troops, this is a wonderful time
to let them know they are in our thoughts and prayers.
NOTE: OPERATION BUCKEYE is an all-volunteer organization founded by Jim
Caronis and Dick Tressel. 100% of all donations and contributions go toward purchasing
of supplies for the boxes and shipping. See the web site at: www.operationbuckeye.org

Negotiating the Third Stage of Life, presented by
Sister Mary C. Daniel, OP, on Tuesday, November 18th
from 2:00-3:30 p.m. Most people easily acknowledge
that there are two “halves” of life, the second of which
involves maturing into adulthood and living well through
this experience. But in her presentation, Sr. Mary
suggests that there is an additional stage of life that
many of us will experience as we age – a “third half.”
This stage of life is the time when we may slow down
considerably. We may become physically or mentally
challenged. We may experience not being in full control
of our bodies. What is this stage of life like for us and
for our loved ones? How do we negotiate this period of
life? Freewill donation will be taken. Please register by
November 14.
