FROM FATHER STEVE...
Happy October everyone! We have quite a busy month here at the
parish! A lot of wonderful stuff happening here at the parish!
Thank you very much for your prayers for my family. Sorry I
missed you last weekend. The staff did a super job getting coverage
last weekend. I am so deeply grateful for them. This weekend is our
Walk�a�Thon. The proceeds from this event will help remodel
Room 104. So far, we received several donations for this project.
God bless all the feet that are participating in the Walk�a�Thon and
God bless all the sponsors. Monday, October 4th at 6:30PM is our
Pet Blessing! Be sure to bring your four�legged friends to the parish
for this fun outdoor event. This is such a fun event for our families
and I hope it is fun for all the pets too! Next weekend is the Knights
of Columbus Sock Drive for Birthright and SVDP’s Blanket
Sunday. Your donation to warm bodies and feet will make a big
difference and warm a lot of heart too! Recently our KofC and
SVDP worked together at the recent Fill The Cruiser at Petie's
Restaurant on September 25
th
from�8AM to 4PM. KofC members
Randy Higgins, Tom Masterson, Mark Blase and Jim Sisler teamed
up with SVDP members Terri Eubanks, Christine Panchur, Sherry
Landry, Sharon Woltman on this event. Also helping at this event
from the KofC and SVDP were Larry Howald, Greg Tabar and
Jim O'Connor. The Fill the Cruiser was a huge success. Great job
SVDP & KofC! I must say our SVDP and KofC have become an
unbeatable combination! They are like the Browns backfield of
service! Our local KofC council,�Magnificat Council #4498,�will be
holding a membership drive at all Masses the weekends of October
9
th
& 10
th
and October 16

ual member or a member of our council you will find that Knights

ful way.� If you would like to join, simply go to KofC.org/joinus and

Trunk or Treat is October 23
rd

tions are underway. Please know we are accepting donations of
candy for the event. You can drop off your bags of candy at the
Parish Office during business hours. Saint Medard, pray for us!
Our Bible Study Program Revelation: The Kingdom Yet To
Become begins Monday, October 11
th
at 7PM in the Kaminski
Center. Pam Anthony will be facilitating the program. In this study,
presenter Jeff Cavins pulls back the veil on the symbolism present
in Revelation. Discover what the mysterious figures and images of
Revelation mean and see how Revelation is more than an apocalyp-
tic vision of the “end times.” To sign up, contact Pam Anthony at
[email protected] . Due to COVID�19, spacing is limited to
18 parishioners. Lastly, October 10
th
is Coast to Coast Rosary. We

What’s New at All Saints School
The first graders’ year is off to a super start! We are
learning to master our daily prayers and rou�nes. We
are making new friends and have learned so much in
such a few short weeks! �
We had a fabulous Apple Day! Each first grader
brought an apple to school and they were weighed to
determine who had the heaviest and lightest apple.
We grouped them based on their characteris�cs. Lots
of apple stories were read. We learned the different
parts of an apple. The children really enjoyed seeing
how the seed chamber forms a star. We es�mated
how many seeds our apple would have, then they
were cut opened and the seeds were graphed. We, of
course, enjoyed ea�ng them.�
The first graders remember
the St. Mary Magdalene
community in our daily
prayers. We are grateful for
your support. God bless you
