Sandwich Saturday will be held on November 15 at 9:00 am in the school cafeteria. Be
thankful for all you have and share with others.
The Dublin Food Pantry is now preparing for its annual Harvest of Hope special distribution. This will
provide about 350 families with all of the traditional fare necessary for a home-cooked Thanksgiving dinner. This year parishioners can participate in one of two ways:
Option One: Provide potatoes and gravy
The St. Brigid Social Action Committee invites parishioners to donate boxed potatoes and
gravy for inclusion in the Thanksgiving boxes provided to client families of the Food Pantry.
Collection of the donations will be after all Masses this weekend, November 8 & 9. Please deliver the donated food to Hendricks Hall (Immke Room) and place the items in the designated boxes.
Option Two: Provide an entire Thanksgiving dinner (value $50)
We are still in need of 40 Thanksgiving Meals. If you can help, please sign up soon!
The EPIC Middle School Youth Group invites parishioners who have the means, to donate an entire
Thanksgiving box of food, which will be delivered directly to the homes of client families of the Food Pantry
by EPIC students and parent drivers. These families may not have the means to get to the Food Pantry to
pick up their meal and delivering the food will give our youth the opportunity to experience helping someone
in need first-hand. Parishioners would provide everything from the following list in a sturdy box, and ideally
will drop the box off at St. Brigid parking lot at 2:30 p.m. on Sunday, November 23, where students will
unload the box from your vehicle and reload it into a parent driver vehicle for delivery. Alternative arrangements for drop
off can be made. The list includes: Turkey breast (6 lbs), Boxed potatoes, Canned gravy, Boxed stuffing, Canned corn,
Canned green beans, Canned cranberries, Canned beets, Assorted fresh fruit (bananas, apples, oranges), Pumpkin
pie and Rolls. If you choose this option, please contact Kim VanHuffel at [email protected] or 614-593-5173.
Thank you for your generosity!

Parent Like a Champion Today...By 20182019, all parents will need to take the training

complete the training, next year's 4th and 5th grade parents
(2015 -2016 academic year) will need to complete the training
before their child can participate in DRA sports programs.

ST. BRIGID OF KILDARE CHURCH
DUBLIN, OHIO
RELIGIOUS EDUCATION...St. Brigid of Kildare Religious
Education Program offers opportunities to allow parishioners to
improve their knowledge and practice of Catholicism. Through
year-long classes for students preschool through grade eight, high
school youth ministry, seasonal studies, speakers, Bible Study,
and specific courses offered on site for adults, all parishioners are
encouraged to know and share the truths of our Catholic faith.
This week our country celebrates Veterans’ Day, a day set
aside to honor all those who have served our country in war
and in peace, who have offered their lives for the good of
others. Let us pray for those men and women who have
been Prisoners of War, those who are still being held in either physical or mental captivity because of their service.
Each year St. Brigid Religious Ed sponsors “Holiday for
Heroes”, originally known as “Operation Cookie Storm.”
Begun during Operation Desert Storm, this one-day event
has sent literally thousands of homemade cookies, cards,
and handmade ornaments to men and women serving overseas who won’t be home for Christmas. Along with the
cookies, cards, holiday napkins, and ornaments, each handdecorated gift bag includes a Prayer for Peace.
Parents, children, teens, all parishioners are invited to participate in this effort to bring a “touch of home” to these
men and women who are literally offering their lives for the
good of others. As the gift bags are packed into the boxes,
the students are reminded of the sacrifice these men and
women are making every day of their lives.
All of this happens again this year on the first Saturday of
December, this year December 6, from 9 a.m. until noon.
At noon, the boxes are loaded into cars, taken to the Post
Office, and sent on their way to all corners of the world.
Hopefully St. Nicholas, whose feast we celebrate on December 6, will help to speed the boxes on their way so that
they arrive in time for Christmas.
Where are they sent? This depends on YOU! Do you know
of someone serving overseas who could distribute gift bags
to their fellow service men and women? If so, please call,
or send their mailing information to the Religious Education
Office. Please also let the office know how many people
these men and women are serving with and how many gift
bags they will be able to distribute!
If YOU would like to be a part of the actual activity of this
day, baking cookies (chocolate chip or sugar cookies) at
home, or making cards, ornaments and gift bags here,
brightening the lives of those who will become Veterans,
please contact St. Brigid Religious Education Office at 614761-1176.

January 23rd - 25th
Were Not Our Hearts Burning Within Us?
NOVEMBER 9, 2014
St. Brigid of Kildare
Elementary School News
At Saint Brigid of Kildare School, we strive for
our community to model and display respect for all people,
regardless of differences among individuals and their needs.
Our goal is for students to appreciate others, to be courteous
towards others, and to recognize and to take into consideration the thoughts, ideas, and God given talents of others.
As we continue on our journey to discipleship, our school
families are each designing a bumper sticker about respect.
Each bumper sticker includes the word “respect,” a slogan
for respect relating to why we should be respectful, and three
words to describe respect. Once the designed bumper stickers are all returned to the school, they will be displayed in
the halls so students can see each other’s ideas of respect and
be constantly reminded to model and display respect for all
people.
The Saint Brigid of Kildare School community provides
Catholic faith formation and strong academic foundations to inspire life long learners and leaders in the
twenty first century. Rooted in Christ, we offer a challenging and integrated Catholic education to children in
preschool through grade 8.

Both Retreats are being held at the St. Therese Retreat Center in Columbus, OH. The facility and food are incredible

the Chapel is a sight to behold. Both Retreats are organized,

and find the content and activities engaging. Come and develop a relationship with 50 other Men in our Parish through
fellowship. Father Kavanagh will also be speaking and celebrating Mass with us. We are also excited to have John
