What a great day at SCA!  We have a few things going on that we wanted to let you know about.  Starting with a Fr. Martin update.  He is doing well and is very thankful for everyone's prayers.  They have all helped immensely!

We are starting Mass sign ups.  If you do not sign up for a Mass please do not show up.  There will be no room for you.  Please sign up below.  There will also be a link on the website and Facebook.  We will send out the Flocknotes on Thursdays instead of Fridays now to give you more time to sign up.  The Archdiocese has also asked us to remind everyone that masks are required for entry into any parish facility and are recommended to be worn for the entirety of Mass except for receiving Holy Communion.

Gather up the family and friends because Sandwich Sunday is back.  Sandwich making will happen after the 10 AM Mass this Sunday, August 2nd.  You are required to wear a mask while making sandwiches and tables will be social distancing with only 4 people or one family to a table.  We are excited to have you back.  We want to give a shout out to the people that continued to make sandwiches for the poor while Sandwich Sunday was out of commission.

The Men's Club would like to thank all the families that participated in the Grandparents Breakfast last Sunday.  What a success; we hope you enjoyed the breakfast as much as we did preparing it.
Sincerely,
The Members of the Men's Club

We also want to thank everyone for their generous donations to the parish over these difficult times.  We truly appreciate your generosity!  If you haven't sign up for online giving yet give it a try.  Click the button below to set up your account.

Come celebrate our favorite parish secretary with us on August 5 for the 8:30 AM Mass!

We are talking to you. If you want to meet men in the parish we have a some great opportunities for you.  

Men's Fellowship is this Saturday, August 1 in the Assisi House starting at 7:30 AM.  The topic this week is Difficulties in Prayer with Tim Gray.  Dr. Tim Gray and Dr. Scott Hefelfinger discuss overcoming difficulties in prayer. What are ways that we can surrender our struggles and allow God to pour grace into our lives? 

The next Men’s Club meeting will be August 3, Monday, 7:00pm, on the parking lot. Please bring a lawn chair. Refreshments will be provided. We would like to encourage all men to attend and join the fun. Looking forward to seeing you there. If you need any particulars: please email secretary.sca.mens.club@gmail.com or contact John Zeiser, 314.409.9955

Ladies we will be doing another Walking with Purpose Bible Study this year.  It will be 22 weeks and last throughout the school year with a break in the middle.  I can't think of a better way to grow with the women in the community than to walk with them through this journey!  With the COVID-19 guidelines we will have to do things a little differently when planning on space so please give us your feedback.  We will also unfortunately not be able to offer childcare this time around.  Sorry!
