Sunday Mass Reminder for October 21, 2007, 29th of the Year

Mass: Sunday, 9:30; coffee, donuts, home made muffins, & juice on the house.

Place: Vines High School on 15th between Custer & Independence.

Readings: Exodus 17, 8-13; Psalm 121; 2 Timothy 3, 14-4, 2; Luke 18, 1-8

Community Bulletin Board 

Tree Project update: thanks to Diane McClurg we may plant 100 or so trees at the new facility of Collin Co. Child Advocacy Center, Park & Los Rios.

November 4, Sunday Mass of Remembrance, i.e., remembering family members & friends no longer with us, tying it in with the All Saints feast.  Bring a picture.

I am still searching for a job for one of our own, Rick Turner.  The last 8 years he has worked as a night warehouse man for Home Depot, which is now laying off numerous workers.  Does anyone have a lead on this kind of work or something similar?  He can do fork lift work, night work, make a great driver. A good man.

Anyone want to help with the readings at Mass who has not been asked?  I include those of you who need practice in speaking in front of a group because of FEAR. 

Anyone in need of a FAX machine?  Contact Beth Robinson: E-mail Address:   Epr313@aol.com

From Frank & Laura Reyes on the plays they are in:

Dr. Jekyl is the one Laura and I will be in, put on by the Plano Community Theater. It is a fund raiser for the Plano Children’s Theater and will be on 10/26, 27 and 28. All adult cast and kind of PG13.
Little Shop of Horrors is a musical put on by the Children’s Theater and will be at the Courtyard Theater on 11/2,3,4,9, 10 and 11. Blair has a part in it and Blake is going to work the man-eating plant.
Tickets for each are $7 in advance, $9 at the door.
