St. Mary/St. Patrick - Franklin Hardin Catholic
October 15-16, 2016 Twenty-Ninth Sunday in Ordinary Time St. Mary/St. Patrick Mass Schedule A Note from Fr. Tony Monday October 17 No Mass Tuesday October 18 St. Mark, Iowa Falls, 5:30pm Mary Agnus Oppold Wednesday October 19 St. Patrick, Hampton, 8:30am David Rowen Thursday October 20 We are in that time of year where there are a ton of activities happening in our local communities. It seems to me that about every church in the area will have some kind of dinner in an effort to gathering in the local community and to raise some needed funds. As you are making your weekend plans, please keep in mind the following activities that will be occurring within our linkage parishes. Next Sunday, October 23rd, St. Mary, Ackley will be having its annual Turkey Dinner. The dinner is from 3:00 pm to 6:00 pm. On Sunday, October 30th St. Patrick, Hampton will be having a Pork Loin Dinner from 11:30 am to 2:30 pm. On Sunday, November 6 th, St. Mary, Eldora will be serving brunch in the parish center from 9:30 am to 12:30 pm. I am a firm believer in creating opportunities outside of Mass to gather parishioners together. Especially in creating opportunities for all four parishes to gather together. Please give it a chance and don’t be afraid to support one another! We are one Body in Christ!
