RCIA: THE SCRUTINIES

During the last three Sundays of Lent, the elect participate in

the scrutinies, small rites that contribute to their preparation

for the sacraments. These rites take place at the 11 a.m. Mass

and will involve an invitation to silent prayer, intercessions

for the elect, a prayer of exorcism, and the laying on of hands.

Regardless of which Mass you attend, please keep these men

and women in your prayers:

Sherry C., Megan S., Bonnie M., Katy W., Brian W.,

Charlie W., and Brady W.

THANK YOU!

We would like to acknowledge some of the

many parishioners who make St. Augustine

a lively community. Be sure to look for more

of this column in upcoming bulletins and

thank these parishioners when you see them.

Mary Stucky has been doing a lot of behind-the-scenes

work getting the parish center organized. Our religious

education supply room is looking great thanks to her efforts!

Now she is working hard to make the Pearson Hall library

more functional. In the process, she is sorting through piles

of books and making them available to parishioners. If

you’re looking for a good Catholic read, check out the free

books cart in the hallway leading to the gym after Sunday

Mass. Then come grab a donut, look for Mary, and thank

her for the wonderful work she is doing!

Our students in fourth grade have been reading the novel On

My Honor. This book focuses on the stages of grief. During a

time of hardship, people experience grief differently.

Through this book, students are able to see different ways

people react to difficult situations. Students have learned

ways of coping with loss, the importance of telling the truth,

standing up to peer pressure and following rules. This has

helped students use different strategies of recognizing grief to

help others. During this time of Lenten season, we remember

to be prayerful, giving and to think of others first.
