Welcome to St. Peter!

Are you interested in learning more about the Catholic Church?
Our RCIA Team would love to meet you! - Join us Thursday, November 13th

Dedication of the Lateran
Basilica in Rome
Fr. Auggie’s Reflection - Dedication of the Lateran Basilica in Rome
EZ 47:1-2, 8-9, 12; PS 46; 1 COR 3:9C-11, 16-17; JN 2:13-22
From 1st Corinthians:
Do you not know that you are the temple of God,
and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?
Reflection:
We are proud of our buildings, artwork, music, and so many other enriching
elements of our life of faith. However, if we focus on these aspects of our community purely for themselves, then we can miss their purpose: To help us be
the most beautiful temples of the Holy Spirit we can be. Indeed, God dwells in
each of us. When such an honored guest dwells in our homes, do we not clean
and prepare the home? Do we not offer warm hospitality? We should do no less
to our own souls and bodies in preparation for the Lord. Our prayers, good
works, proper healthcare, and avoidance of sin aid in our being prepared to
welcome the Holy Spirit in our hearts. As we celebrate this feast of the Universal Church, let us remember that we each are part of the Body of Christ, the
Church, and that we all play a part in the Church’s holiness and beauty.

Virtue of Stewardship
This year, our parish is using the Dominican Sisters’ program “Virtues in Practice” which profiles a virtue and saint
each month for children in grades PK-8. Families are invited to download the parent guide and children’s workbooks
(for free) at http://nashvilledominican.org/Apostolate/
Evangelization_and_Catechesis.
Stewardship: Returning to God the first fruits
of your time, talent, and treasure.
YOUTH GROUP NEWS (grades 7 – 12)
A steward is someone who is given the responsibility to care for and protect things that belong to
someone else. Because each of our lives is a gift
from God, we are all “stewards” who will give our
lives back to God when we go to heaven. So while
we are on earth, we must take care of and use wisely all the time, talents, and material things with
which God has blessed us, using all for the benefit of
others and the glory of God.
Virtues in Practice, Year I: Year of Faith Workbook for
Grades 3-5,
SOUP SUNDAY THIS SUNDAY. Every second Sunday of the month, Calvary Church sells delicious soups
