Fifteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
July 15, 2012
Welcome to St. Anthony
In addition, it comes within the meaning of
religious freedom that religious communities
should not be prohibited from freely
undertaking to show the special
value of their doctrine in what
concerns the organization of society
and the inspiration of the whole
of human activity. Finally, the
social nature of man and the very nature of
religion afford the foundation of the right of
men freely to hold meetings and to establish
educational, cultural, charitable and social
organizations, under the impulse of their own
religious sense. ~ Dignitatis Humanae: On the Right of the Person
and of Communities to Social and Civil Freedom in
Matters Religious, Promulgated by Pope Paul VI,
December 7, 1965
If you wish to have a Mass offered for a
deceased or living family member, or for

wall in back of church) and place it in the offering basket
or give it to an usher. Remember, you must register to
receive envelopes. Members who were registered under

A Parent’s Prayer for Sunday Morning
God, help us get to church today with
minimal fuss and fighting, with everyone
dressed and ready to pray, with all our bags
packed, prepared for anything. And if the kids gets
fussy and distracted, please let there be a song to
soothe them, a colorful window to enchant them,
and kind pew mates to accept our flaws.
Catholic returning home?
St. Anthony Welcomes You!

Frequently Asked Questions about the Church
Renovation
What work will be happening at the parish starting in
mid-April?
The brickwork (exterior) will be re-grouted (tuck pointed;
exterior will be cleaned; 10 of 11 roofs will be replaced; all
framing around windows restored; windows cleaned and new
window covers installed; flashing replaced.
What type of equipment will I see when I attend Mass?
Scaffolding, ladders, an apple picker or crane that will be there
from mid April until late August (might go a bit longer).
What are the three biggest priorities for the work
project?
Repairing the woodwork that secures the windows, tuck pointing brickwork to seal out current leaks, and replacing
10 of 11 roofs.
How does this work benefit the parish?
The work provides us with a solid exterior, new roofing and protects the church’s beautiful windows; the massive
repairs will insure that we will have no further exterior leaks so we can protect St. Anthony’s church from further
decay and renovate the interior. The work will also provide us with new roofing which will last many years.
How is the parish paying for this?
In 2011, the active parishioners voted to sell the long-closed parish school to the Archdiocese of Atlanta. The
proceeds of the sale are funding these improvements.
