Thank you to St. Joseph Roanoke Parishioners:
Huntington House would like to say a special Thank you to the
Church for the generous gift of 20 sheet sets and pillow cases. This
gift is such a necessity for the shelter because as residents leave if
they are lacking bedding we send sheets, pillows, and blankets with
them. This of course depletes our supply and creates a need. Thank
you for filling that need and enabling us to continue helping others.
-Huntington House Staff-
Your generosity makes a difference! Thank you for your support!
-Rosella Stouder—Huntington House Director-

THANK YOU:
Dear Father Dale Bauman,
We wish to gratefully acknowledge your generosity and that of the
good people of St. Catherine and St. Joseph Church. Your offering
represents your heartwarming response to the mission appeal that
our missionary preached for the benefit of the Society of the Com-
boni Missionaries. May our Lord bless and reward you for the inter-
est and concern you have shown for our missionaries and may we
continue to work together in our common goal of spreading the
word of Jesus. Best wishes to you and your parishioners.

St. Catherine Parishioners:
1.) Altar Servers Needed
Soon the Winter schedule will be created for St. Catherin’s Liturgi-
cal Ministries.
At this point in time, we are in need of Altar Servers as we current-
ly only have 5 people. Anyone who has made their First Commun-
ion can become an Altar Server INCLUDING ADULTS. Training is
easy….CD’s are located at the back of Church that can be taken
home for leisurely training at your own pace.
A big thank you to Mike Coronato, Dane Starkey, Blaise and Corah
Rupley and Meghan Lickey for sharing their time and talents as
Altar Servers at St. Catherine’s.
2.) Liturgical Ministers’ schedule
It’s that time again when the next Liturgical Ministers’ schedule
needs to be created. This next schedule will include the months of
November through February.
Won’t you please consider becoming more involved by volunteer-
ing to be a Eucharistic Minister, Usher, Lector, Cantor, or servers?
It is so important, and an honor, to serve the Lord by being an ac-
tive part of the Masses here at St. Catherine.
If you are interested in becoming more involved in the Masses at
St. Catherine, please contact Carla Trabert at 260-213-1360 or
