FAITH FORMATION NEWS Elena Ziegler (DRE) [email protected] (803) 372 5865 YOUTH MINISTRY NEWS Kendra Foos (Youth Minister) [email protected] (803) 372 5808 Only 40 days until Christmas! Is it time for the holiday rush or will this year be different? Opportunities are coming to help you keep the season prayerful. Here are a few: What’s it all about? TV ads and billboards are advertising ‘Black Friday’ and the number of shopping days until Christmas. But, Advent is a season that calls us to wait in joyful hope for the coming of our Savior. Take some time to reflect on the real “Reason for the Season.” Mark your calendar for a Family Advent Retreat Day on Saturday, December 6th. This retreat is for parish families with children 8th grade and younger. Look for the registration form on the welcome desk in the Gathering Space. Space is limited, so please sign up soon. Ariel Smith receiving the Youth Group Student of the Month award presented by Knight of Columbus Grand Knight Ray Howard. Congratulations, Ariel! What are you doing for Advent? Amidst all the Thanksgiving to Christmas Eve frenzy and frolicking, treat yourself to a pause to refresh your soul. You are familiar with the catchy phrase, “Jesus is the Reason for the Season.” Come spend some quality time reflecting on just what this means. A special adult group will meet from 9:00-10:15am in the Family Life Center library beginning the First Sunday of Advent, November 30th. Sunday Morning F.U.E.L. All 9-12 grade students are invited to come and engage in lively discussions about our Faith: Sundays 10:30am12:00pm in the Religion Room. (F.U.E.L will not meet November 23rd or 30th). Children’s Liturgy of the Word will be offered during Advent at the 10:30am Mass. This is for children four years old and through first grade. The children will be sent forth during the Liturgy of the Word during Mass and return after the intercessions. The goal is to understand the Gospel more fully in an age-appropriate way. Several dedicated adults are needed. The training session is Wednesday, November 19th at 6pm in the Family Life Center. The Power of Prayer is November 17th from 7:008:00pm in the Religion Room. The Power of Prayer is a chance for students to come and learn some traditional Catholic prayers as well as sit and have silent prayer. We live in a very busy world and sometimes we just need a chance to decompress. Families are welcome to join us! 9-12 Grade Movie Night—this Saturday Interested in Starting a Young Adult Group We will have movie night on Saturday, Nov. 15th in the gym from 7:00-10:00pm.

SALVATION Outside the Church: “God introduced salvation to the world through his chosen people, the Jews. God’s revelation to the Jews found its fulfillment in Christ, the Messiah, who established the Catholic Church. The grace necessary for salvation continues to come from Christ, through his Church. Those who innocently do not know and embrace this might still attain salvation but those who knowingly and willingly choose to reject it, reject salvation on God’s terms” (Jim Blackburn, www.catholic.com). 4 November 16, 2014 - 33rd Sunday in Ordinary Time www.saintanne.com STEWARDSHIP “Active Parishioner” is determined by three things: ●Being properly registered in the parish—faithfully attending Mass on the weekends and Holy Days of Obligation ●Regularly supporting the parish by using any identifiable donation (such as envelope system, loose check, or electronic donation) ●Being active in at least one parish program, ministry, or organization. Stewardship of Treasure Corresponsabilidad Financiera FAMILY COMMUNION A few years ago, I was introduced to a younger parishioner who welcomed me to the parish and asked when I joined St. Anne church. She was surprised when I told her I had been a member for many years. I don’t tell this story to embarrass the very nice young lady, but to make the point that we have so many members that we can’t possibly know everyone. Or can we? Can we at least make the effort to get to know the other members of our parish family when the opportunity arises? I come from a very large family who are all located in other states yet we are very close because we make the effort to get together to celebrate memorable events or just because we miss one another. There is always food involved – lots of it. But most importantly, we get together, and no matter how long it has been since we have seen each other, we have a connection due to our commitment to our relationship. On November 23, our parish family will celebrate Christ the King. It is being held in the Family Life Center from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM. Please come and bring your favorite side dish or dessert to share with others. Just like the young lady and I who met for the first time that year, you may meet a member of our parish family and make a new connection. Whether you are new to the parish or have been here awhile, I look forward to seeing you on November 23.

Catholic Schools empower students through an academically Christcentered education. We invite you to participate in this ministry by supporting this collection which helps schools to remain a place where our faith is taught and lived. Pat Fedele Parish Manager NEXT WEEK—Second Collection Catholic Campaign for Human Development Stewardship & Thanksgiving Day Next week’s collection was founded in 1970 by the Catholic bishops of the United States as their domestic anti-poverty program. It funds community and economic development programs across the U.S. that help poor and marginalized people to join together to make decisions, seek solutions to local problems, and find ways to improve their lives and neighborhoods. For more information, visit www.usccb.org/cchd. “Stewardship in the Catholic tradition affirms that into this creation, God sent Jesus the Christ to live among us and teach us the ways of God, and that our stewardship of the world includes cultivating it and building it into an even better and more grace-filled world; a world that reveals the light of Christ and is returned to his Father with increase. Stewards strive to embrace a life of gratitude; a life that reminds them of the relative abundance they enjoy. It is an abundance unavailable to most of the earth’s inhabitants. Most of us have much more than we really need, and the spirit of gratitude should impel us to share this relative abundance with those who are less fortunate. As Thanksgiving Day approaches, let us take stock of the many wonderful blessings we enjoy. Let’s be sure to take time to thank God in prayer for our abundance; avoid the sin of an ungrateful heart; and consider how we might be even better stewards of the gifts God has entrusted to us” (www.catholicstewardship.com).

Virtuous Students for October The Dedication of the Basilicas of Saints Peter and Paul Certificates and Knights of Columbus Rosaries presented to the winning students by Grand Knight Ray Howard, picture on the front page of this bulletin. Kindergarten- Grace Hurley Elementary School- Gabriel Robles Middle School- Elizabeth Mischel Rome’s Most-Frequented Pilgrimage Sites “St. Peter’s is probably the most famous church in Christendom. Massive in scale and a veritable museum of art and architecture, it began on a much humbler scale. Vatican Hill was a simple cemetery where believers gathered at St. Peter’s tomb to pray. In 319 Constantine built a basilica on the site that stood for more than a thousand years until, despite numerous restorations, it threatened to collapse. In 1506, Pope Julius II ordered it razed and reconstructed, but the new basilica was not completed and dedicated for more than two centuries. St. Paul’s Outside-the-Walls stands near the Abaazia delle Tre Fontane, where St. Paul is believed to have been beheaded. The largest church in Rome until St. Peter’s was rebuilt, the basilica also rises over the traditional site of its namesake’s grave. The most recent edifice was constructed after a fire in 1823. The first basilica was also Constantine’s doing. Constantine’s building projects enticed the first of a centurieslong parade of pilgrims to Rome. From the time the basilicas were first built until the empire crumbled under ‘barbarian’ invasions, the two churches, although miles apart, were linked by a roofed colonnade of marble columns.” Interestingly, “Peter, the rough fisherman whom Jesus named the rock on which the Church is built, and the educated Paul, reformed persecutor of Christians, Roman citizen and missionary to the Gentiles, are the original odd couple. The major similarity in their faith-journeys is the journey’s end: Both, according to tradition, died a martyr’s death in Rome— Peter on a cross and Paul beneath the sword. Their combined gifts shaped the early Church and believers have prayed at their tombs from the earliest days” (www.americancatholic.org). All Saints Assembly St. Anne School first graders entertained SAS and SAS families—celebrating the saints on Friday, November 7th as they dressed up, sang in procession, and told the assembly about what made their saint special.

Sponsor a Child before Christmas Project San Pedro is a child sponsorship program of the Diocese of Charleston in partnership with the Sisters of Bethany and the Diocese of Sololá in Guatemala.

Project San Pedro is set up to insure that children, who often end their education prematurely to help support their families, are able to complete school. They are given financial assistance to pay for school, are given nutritional supplements, healthcare and clothing allowances. We have now over 100 children without a sponsor. For more information, please visit our website at http://sccatholic.org/international-ministries, Project San Pedro, to sign up and sponsor a child today.

El día de acción de gracias se celebra a lo grande en los Estados Unidos, tomando la oportunidad de compartir una comida o cena tradiciónal con los seres queridos. St. Anne ayuda a miembros de la comunidad que están solos o que necesitan comida ese día. Por lo tanto, la iglesia pide donaciones para preparer la comida para estas personas necesitadas. Además, St. Anne necesita voluntarios para servir la comida, empacarla, y distribuirla a las familias. Hay hojas en el loby donde uno puede inscribir para donar o ayudar. ¡Muchas gracias por considerar este ministerio! NOVENAS para Nuestra SEÑORA de GUADALUPE Las novenas para la Virgen empiezan el 3 de diciembre en la iglesia. Si su familia le gustaría tomar un día para coordinar el rosario, por favor hable con Berta Uribe al (803) 985-3850.

Lunes, 17 de noviembre, de las 6:30pm a las 8pm en la escuela de St. Anne. Es una buena oportunidad de tener unos momentos tranquilos con el Senor y también para poder rezar juntos.

Esto se encuentra en el area enfrente de la oficina parroquial. Los boletines son especialmente para niños de 3 a 6 o de 7 a 12 años. Son gratis (en inglés) y ayudan a que los niños aprendan sobre las lecturas dominicales. Noviembre es el Mes Dedicado a Todos Los Difuntos: Oración Por Nuestros Seres Queridos Comida de la Parroquia: 23 de Noviembre St. Anne es muy afortunada de tener nuevas familias en nuestra comunidad. Queremos darles la bienvenida e invitar a la parroquia a compartir una comida especial, el dia 23 de noviembre de las 2 a las 5pm en la cafeteria de St. Anne. La iglesia proveera el plato fuerte y los refrescos pero están invitados a llevar un plato para compartir también. “Oh buen Jesús, que durante toda tu vida te compadeciste de los dolores ajenos, mira con misericordia las almas de nuestros seres queridos que están en el Purgatorio. Oh Jesús, que amaste a los tuyos con gran predilección, escucha la súplica que te hacemos, y por tu misericordia concede a aquellos que Tú te has llevado de nuestro hogar el gozar del eterno descanso en el seno de tu infinito amor. Amén. Concédeles, Señor, el descanso eterno y que les ilumine tu luz perpetua. Que las almas de los fieles difuntos por la misericordia de Dios descansen en paz. Amén” (www.devocionario.com). Clases de Confirmación Jóvenes, si han estado un año en el Youth Group, pueden comenzar las clases de confirmación. Las primeras clases empezaron en octubre y son cada miércoles de las 6 hasta las 7:30pm en la escuela de St. Anne.

El Sábado es el Día de la Semana Dedicado a la Virgen María Intenciones del Santo Padre para el Mes de Noviembre Universal: Personal Solas Para que las personas que sufren la soledad sientan la cercanía de Dios y el apoyo de sus hermanos en la fe. Por la Evangelización: Formadores del Clero y de Religiosos Para que los seminaristas, religiosos y jóvenes religiosas tengan formadores sabios y bien preparados. Desde el principio de los tiempos, la Santa Madre del Señor ha sido amada y venerada al modo que Cristo deseó para Ella. A lo largo de su historia, la iglesia buscó formas de honrarla y servirla adecuadamente. Las maneras tradicionales para honrar a la Virgen son: asistir a la Santa Misa, confesarse y recibir la eucaristía, rezar el rosario como familia, y mostrar caridad para el prójimo de forma especial todo con un corazón dirigido a Dios a través de María. 8 TIN CNG OÀN I CHÚA (CN XXXIII - Mùa Thng Niên - nm A) “Chu toàn trách nhim” Bài c I (Cn 31,10-13.19-20.30-31) Bài ca tng ngi v hin m ang.
