ATTENTION: Our youth ministry will be on hiatus over Christmas, and will start up again in mid-January.

STEWARDSHIP (12/08/19) Offertory Envelope Collection $ 1,427.00 Monthly Envelope Collection $ 380.00

WAMA FOOD PANTRY

November’s distributions dates are Tuesday, December 17th from 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM and Wednesday, December 18th, from 4:30 PM - 6:30 PM. They need as many volunteers to help as they can get. Please call the Food Pantry number 724.695.1305 to let Tim Opfermann or Linda Stoner know if you can help. The Food Pantry would welcome any at-tendees who might need their services or if you know of anyone else in need, please refer them to the Food Pantry.

MARCH FOR LIFE

Registration is open for the March for Life! Join tens of thousands of pro-lifers from all over the country as we defend the unborn and witness to the sanctity of human life! See the parish website for more info.

31 CLUB

All parishioners are invited to join the "31 Club" as a way to pray for priestly vocations. Those who join pledge to perform a spiritual act of their choosing for this intention (e.g., praying a rosary). This is done once a month, on the day of one's birth. There is a binder in the back of church for you to sign up. You may also sign up on the parish website.

H E A L T H M I N I S T R Y

We are looking forward to revitalizing the HEALTH MINISTRY that was begun in some of our parishes. We are asking all of the nurses in our six parishes and anyone who would be interested in helping to come forth and help with the Ministry. Some of the out-reach activities that we’d like to provide are: taking blood pressures before or after Masses in each church, visiting shut-ins, bringing occasional health speakers, visiting those hospitalized. If you are a nurse and can possibly help, please contact Sharon at 724.926.2984 or [email protected]. After the holidays, we would like to have an informal meeting of all interested volunteers.

EUCHARISTIC MINISTERS

All EMs who missed the EM training are asked to visit the parish website, at https://www.grouping329.org/eucharistic-minister, to listen to recordings of the training. Please call the parish if you have trouble accessing this page.

IN REMEMBRANCE OF OUR BELOVED DE-CEASED: Sophia Skoff, who died on November 30th and was buried on December 4th. May her soul and all the souls of the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace. R. /Amen.

OFFERTORY COLLECTION Christmas and Children and Youth Collections can be placed in the “Offertory Collection” at any given time before the end of the year.
