First Friday Adoration is December 4 after the 7:30 a.m. Mass until 9:00 a.m. at Sacred Heart.

Stewardship Moment:  “Take heed, watch and pray; for you do not know when the time will come.”  -  Mark 13:33  We all take things for granted. In particular, we take time for granted. We make our lives too busy. We plan our time, our days, weeks, months, even years in advance.  Remember, our time on earth is a gift. None of us knows how long we will be here.  Start today and begin thanking God for each and every day. Take time in silence, every day, and listen to how God is calling you right now to help build His kingdom on earth.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 Holy Father’s Prayer Intention for December: We pray that our personal relationship with Jesus Christ be nourished by the Word of God and a life of prayer.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 The December 13 KC Christmas meal and program are cancelled.

Food Drive 2020 continues on all Sundays in November. We will collect nonperishable foods, personal hygiene or cleaning products for the Wells County Food Pantry.  Thank you for your generosity! (Sponsored by SS Joseph/Elizabeth Catholic United Council)

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Stewardship Moment: “…whatever you did for one of the least of my brothers, you did for me” – MATTHEW 25:40  Most of us are generous when it’s convenient for us. We are generous when we have the time or the money. But, generosity is the opposite of that. It means giving of one’s time, money, compassion, forgiveness or mercy when it’s not convenient; when it’s not on our schedule, but on the other person’s schedule.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The CHI St. Alexius Auxiliary is once again sponsoring the "Tree of Lights" at the hospital.  There is no lighting ceremony/program this year.   Donations can be made in memory of loved ones or as a greeting to someone.  One-half of the monies raised from this project will be given to CHI Health at Home and the other one-half will be used to purchase medical equipment for the Carrington Health Center.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Advent starts next weekend.  Please pick an Advent daily reflection book up and take advantage of this excellent resource to help make your Advent spiritually fulfilling.  Children received their Advent materials in class this week.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As we celebrate our National Holiday of Giving Thanks – let us pause and reflect on the many blessings Almighty God has given us.  Everyone is invited to be generous in the collection taken up during Mass – which will go to the Carrington Ministerial Association.  Mass is at 9:00 am on Thanksgiving at Sacred Heart.
