THIRD SUNDAY IN LENT Fish Fry Desserts We could use some help with our desserts for the fish fry dinners. Our students’ parents provide desserts, but we have been blessed enough in the last couple of years to have an increase in the patronage of our fish frys. Therefore, we could use some extra desserts for our dinners so that all diners may enjoy a sweet ending to their meal. Desserts may be taken to the school office Fridays or when you come to the Fish Fry Friday evenings. Thank you for your consideration and last week’s donations. It was greatly appreciated. Third Fish Fry This Friday Here we are again at the half way point of the Lenten Fish Frys! This Friday’s fish fry is indeed mid-way through the Lenten Season so if you want to get a great fish dinner, please don’t put it off too long as you wouldn’t want to miss out on this wonderful meal. Bring your family and friends and have an enjoyable time. Fish Frys are from 5:00 to 7:00 PM in the school hall and remember that carry out is available. The Grotto Store has Lenten Items Don’t forget our own Grotto Store has many items for the Lenten Season. Perhaps a statue of the Pieta would do for your home or a specific piece of literature is what you are looking for. Of course, after Lent is Easter and the Store has many items for Easter giving also. Stop in to the store and see what is available for you. The Store will be open from 5:00 to 6:45 PM during the Fish Fry, or by appointment for a specific time. Offertory Envelopes Have Arrived The boxed offertory envelopes (remember for the entire year) have arrived and can be picked up at the back of church. The envelope boxes are arranged by letters of the alphabet with a label on top for easy finding. Please pick your envelopes up as soon as you can. Thanks! Lenten Penance Services Mark your calendars for this year’s Lenten Communal Penance services. Priests of the Deanery will be present for the Penance Services which will be held on the following dates at the following parishes: March 19th - Immaculate Conception, Ravenna March 23rd - St. Joseph, Mantua March 26th - St. Patrick, Kent All services begin at 7:00 PM. Weekly confession here at St. Joseph is every Saturday from 4:00 to 4:30 PM, or by appointment with Fr. Tom. MARCH 8, 2015 Rice Bowls - Hungering for a Bountiful Earth This third week of lent our journey with Catholic Relief Services takes us to the coffee highlands of Nicaragua, where we are called to protect both the goodness of creation and the livelihoods of struggling families. How will this week’s fast remind us of the sacredness of God’s creation and our duty to protect it? Remember to pick up your Rice Bowls located at the back of church. Put your spare change into them and return them Holy Week to the back of the church. Holy Week and Easter Schedule We are already half way into the Lenten Season with Palm Sunday (the beginning of Holy Week) only 3 weeks from now. Palm Sunday is when our finalized Holy Week/Easter schedules are ready to be picked up. Located at the back of church is the signup sheet for all Liturgical Ministers so you may choose your desired Mass(es) for that week. Please sign up early, not only to get your preferred Mass, but also for the schedule to be finished on time. Thank you for your consideration. Any open ministries will be assigned. “Wisdom is with aged men, With long life is understanding.” Job 12:12 St. Joseph Parish has a lot of wisdom and understanding! We have over 120 members over the age of 80, 30 of whom are over the age of 90 and of course we all know Mary Denny will be 105 this June. One of our revered parishioners who celebrated his 90th birthday not too long ago is Paul Schaefer. You can see some of Paul’s celebration in this week’s bulletin. May the Good Lord bless all you folk of wisdom. Archbishop Hoban High School Presents Hello Dolly! Hello Dolly!
