BEREAVEMENT SESSIONS will
be held here at St. Francis de Sales weekly for five weeks beginning
Monday, September 27th and
continue in October on the
following Mondays: 4th, 11th, 18th & 25th. All sessions begin at 7:00
PM. This is a gathering of men and women who come together for some grief
education and support of one another. Your “loss” can be a new one or a
long-enduring one. Watch for more information and dates that will be
published. Please Call Sr. Mary at 61-693-5851 or Kathleen McCarthy if you
are interested in attending. |

THANK YOU for your
generosity in last week’s collection for the St. Vincent De Paul Society.
On July 31st & August 1st our volunteers fed over 250 people at
Kennedy House. Our July and August Opportunity House volunteers fed 60 to
80 folks on each of those Thursdays. Thanks to our July volunteers, Rose
DiNunzio, Jennifer McNamara, Tina Barr and Sandy Grajewski; and our August
volunteers, Carolyn Schultz, Dan Buckley and Joan Bross. Your ongoing
support allows us to minister to a variety of outreach
programs. |

Your
blood is critically needed!
The Miller-Keystone Blood Bank is in short supply. Please consider helping out by
donating the “Gift of Life” at our next community Blood Drive on Tuesday,
September 21st at St. Daniel’s Church here in Robesonia. Thank you to the parishioners who
already signed up at the blood drive held at St. Paul’s Church back in
July. For those that can help
by donating on September 21st, please sign up for one of the available
times on the signup sheet in the church foyer. Appointments are requested, but
walk-ins are always welcome!
September is always a busy month, but it is also a good time to
remember that your blood donations help save lives.

Cafe Corner
If you believe what you like in
the gospels, and reject what you don't like, it is not the gospel you
believe, but yourself.
