Don't forget to get your tickets for the Fundraise to San Manuel Casino next Saturday, Oct. 2nd. The proceeds will go towards the youth traveling to WYD in Aug. of 2011.

Please try to get your orders in by the end of the first week of October so we will have them in time to place in the Placita.

Thank you to those who took a book of raffle tickets last week. If you can take a book and either sell it or buy it that would help this fundraiser be a success. We need everyone's help and you might even win the car or money!!!

SEPT. 11TH-12TH

We kick off our Car raffle today. Please stop by the table at the back of the church to pick up your tickets. Each ticket is $5 and a book of five is only $20. Please help us make this a great fundraiser.

 

I was approached by representatives from the Los Angeles Neighborhood Initiative group who has undertaken to beautify the corner of La Brea and Mansfield, in front of the Mortuary. They are looking for two representatives from St. Agatha's to be on the Steering committee so that we will have a voice in what happens. I would say the commitment would be for no longer than 6 months. Please talk to Sr. Karen if you are interested.

 

Our weight loss program is ready to begin. If you signed up and received a call, please talk to Marcia Lewis or Sr. Karen about details of the program. We will start new groups every 3 months so if you do not get into the beginning group, you can participate at a later date.

 

Tutoring Ministry at St Agatha resumes September 16, bring your children on Thursdays from 7pm to 9pm, and Saturdays from 1pm to 3pm in Room 4. We are glad to say that we have new tutors and we welcome anyone who needs volunteer hours for high school or college to come and give us a hand! 

 

If you would like to order an Array of four bricks, we now have the price. Please stop by the table at the back of Church to receive that information and see what you can do. We are still taking orders for bricks and will do so until the end of September.

    Work on the Placita will begin this coming week, so look for some nice changes next Sunday.

SEPT. 4TH-5TH

Bishop Edward Clarke was in a car accident a month ago and thought everything was fine. Unfortunately he wasn't fine and had to undergo surgery. He is well now, but please keep him in your prayers over the next three months as he recuperates.

 

We have an option with the Bricks that some families might like to take advantage of. It is called an Array, where four bricks are put together with whatever you would like to write on them and or a symbol. You can stop by the table after Mass and look over your choices.

 

We will be handing out raffle tickets for our Car Raffle next week. Here is you chance to win a new 2011 Toyota Yaris. Tickets are $5 each or a book of 5 tickets for $20. I hope every family can sell at least one book to help us out for this year.

 

There will be a celebration at the Cathedral on Sept. 19th for the 10th anniversary of the canonization of St. Katharine Drexel with a reception here at St. Agatha's at 3pm in the Hall. Hope some of you can attend and represent St. Agatha's family.

 

Please take a copy of the bulletin home with you for a lot  more news about upcoming events.

 

Father Bill will be gone all week, thus, Monday's communion service will be at 6:30pm.
