PRAYER FOR A BABY IN HER MOTHER'S WOMB
O God of all creation,
nurture and protect this tiny child and keep her safe in the sanctuary
of her mother's womb.
As you so wondrously form her heart and mind and lungs and soul, so
strengthen our will to lovingly nurture and protect her.
Give us the eyes to see her as our sister, the minds to welcome her
as our own, and the faith to defend her as your child.
We ask this through the intercession of Mary, our Blessed Mother, and
the mother of all the little ones, through Christ, your Son, our Lord.
Amen.

FIRST COMMUNION
Again this year, the 9:00 AM Family mass will be more child oriented.
The Eucharistic Prayer will be from the Children's Lectionary and the
homily will be directed toward the children. On October 5th the children
who will be receiving their First Communion this spring will be welcomed
into the parish preparation program for First Communion at the 9:00
AM Family Mass.
The children are to gather as a group in the front of the church on
the Tabernacle side. There will be a Children's Mass Book and Hymnal
provided so the congregation will be able to follow the Mass and join
in the responses.
It is our hope that families will also attend the Mass and participate
by singing the hymns and join in the responses.
Each week a different grade will be invited to sit as a group in the
front of the church.
The October 5th Family Mass is part of the Sacramental preparation for
First Communion.

the quilts will be on display in the
