(Saint Augustine Church, Barberton, OH) (June 26, 2011)

The Most Holy Body & Blood of Christ

Family meals are essential for the cohesion and growth of families. Nourishing food, conversation, laughter, disagreements, prayer and ritual all give life and promote growth. The Sunday Eucharist is the gathering meal for all parish families. Here we encounter community. We more fully become what we receive: The Body of Christ! The two most important family rituals are Sunday Eucharist and regular family meals. (Insert graphic 1106-0086)
364 Holy Hour Adorers spent time with Our Lord before the Blessed Sacrament past week. "Come to me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." Mt 11:28 If you are feeling the chaos of your busy everyday life and would like to find someone that will listen, and cares, you might consider spending one hour with Jesus. Try it; what do you have to lose? Call Judy at 330-212-0926 if you would like to participate in a Holy Hour.

Mark your calendars for Sunday, September 11, 2011 Better than the best picnic ever!!! SAVE THE DATE for The Great Pumpkin and Apple Festival. The Saint Augustine annual parish picnic will begin with a Mass at 11:00am on the steps of our beautiful Church and will continue throughout the afternoon with food, entertainment, the rocketcar ride (www.therocketcar.com) and special visitors of CHARLIE BROWN, SNOOPY, AND THE GREAT PUMPKIN for memorable pictures. There will be plenty of games for all ages. We gather each year to socialize at this picnic for we care for each other and want to grow as a catholic family. Let's have another successful attendance.
ATTENTION: Volunteers, staff and Lil Bakers: This years Vacation Bible School had approximately 100 children learn how to Shake it up.
