FILLED EASTER EGGS NEEDED - The parish
is sponsoring an Easter Egg Hunt on Palm Sunday, March 29. Parishioners are invited to help supply plastic eggs filled with goodies or small items. The
filled eggs can be dropped off in the boxes in
the Gathering Space at Christ the King and
the Vestibule at St. Paul. Fr. Mark encourages
ALL the youth of the parishes to participate.
EASTER EGG HUNT - This annual event for
ALL children in the parishes is Sunday, March 29.
Children 5 and under launch the egg hunts at 11:20 in
the front yard at Christ the King following 10:00
Mass. Children who are over 5 years old AND not in
the RE Program have the opportunity to hunt for
eggs at 11:30. The egg hunt for the older children is
part of their classroom preparations for Holy Week.
They will hunt eggs with their classes.
The Newman Community and Athens
Catholic Teens are helping Fr. Mark hide
the eggs.
FIRST HOLY COMMUNION RETREAT - The
annual retreat for children making their
First Holy Communion is Saturday,
April 11, from 8:30 to 11:00 AM. It will
be held at St. Paul Church.
WALK TO JERUSALEM - Don't forget to log
your miles at tinyurl.com/AthensCatholicWalk. It's
not too late to contribute, even if you haven't yet
logged miles from Week 1, 2, or 3, you can add them
at any point. We're over halfway through Lent and
still have many more miles to travel to reach Mount
Calvary by Good Friday. Keep up the great work!

Degree meeting on Sunday, March 29, at the Marietta Hall at 1:00 PM. All 4th Degree Knights are
