Clergy Appreciation Day
Sunday was Clergy Appreciation Day. One of the best ways to show your appreciation is to “Come to the Table” and celebrate Mass with them. Mass is not the same without you!
Pumpkins Are Ready
The pumpkins have arrived for Friday’s pumpkin drop in one of JFK’s middle school science classes.
NET Retreats for 7th/8th Graders & Housing Still Needed
Overnight housing is still needed for NET team members. As of last week, there were only three host families. NET team members need housing the night of October 18th. Host families are requested to house a minimum of two team members of the same gender. These college-aged young people will have sleeping bags, mats, pillows, towels and toiletries and are fine with sleeping on the floor, couches or air mattresses. They do request shower access. Host families often gain much from the presence of these energetic, faith-filled young people! You do not need a 7th or 8th grader to host NET team members. If you are interested, please contact Kaye Meyers at davolvcre@diodav.org or 563-391-8384.
NET team members will conduct retreats for 7th and 8th graders. The 8th grade retreat is Tuesday, October 18 from 4:30 – 8:30 PM. On Wednesday, October 19, from 3:00 – 7:00 PM, we will have the 7th grade retreat. NET team members come from all across the country and are trained and based out of the diocese of Minneapolis.
