BLESSED SACRAMENT CATHOLIC SCHOOL
Excitement at BSCS! This playground is now a year old, and students of all grades continue to enjoy this
equipment. These 4th graders are taking a break from studying!
The students at BSCS attend school Mass on Thursdays at 8:45 a.m. This Mass is celebrated with Father
Joseph and the other parts of the Mass (readers, cantor, choir, gift bearers) are done by the students. We
also have Mass on Holy Days of Obligation. Due to
Father Joseph’s schedule, sometimes our school Masses are on days other than Thursdays! It is such a
blessing to be part of the children worshiping God and
taking an active part in the Mass. We invite you, family
members, parishioners, friends, to join us!
Sign-up for Readers’ Group and the choirs (Choir I and Choir II) has begun. The
members of the Readers’ Group provide the readings and prayer intentions at
the school Masses. The choirs serve as cantors and lead the singing at the
school Masses – and also sing at some weekend Masses.
Schoolhouse Fare, the new lunch program, will begin on September 6th. This
online ordering program will offer lunches from various vendors of the West

Families need to set up an account at https://orders.schoolhousefare.com. The
password is BSS. We thank Mr. Robert Herbert and family (Lowcountry Lunches) for their work in helping us with lunches for the last few years!
Leonard’s School of Music has begun their signup for band. Ms. Emma Ostapeck (BSCS alumnae) visited the 4th and 5th grades to talk with
them about playing various instruments. On-site
lessons are in the Parish Hall before school.

RESPECT LIFE
PRAYER OF REMEMBRANCE:
"God of peace, bring your peace to
our violent world … Comfort and
console us, strengthen us in hope,
and give us the wisdom and
courage to work tirelessly for a
world where true peace and love
reign." (Pope Francis, Ground Zero Memorial, New
York, Sept. 25, 2015)
CANONIZATION OF MOTHER TERESA: Our
priest associate Monsignor Michael Mannion, who
had a 28-year friendship with Mother Teresa, will
concelebrate the Mass. And two members of our
international team – Bob Lalonde and Geoffrey
Strickland (who staffs our Rome office) – will be in
attendance and carry with them all the prayers and
petitions of our Priests for Life supporters.
Mother Teresa touched many of our lives here at
Priests for Life. In 1994, just a year after taking
over as national director of Priests for Life, she
invited Fr. Frank Pavone to speak to sisters and
priests in India about our work. Mother Teresa
and Fr. Frank had many discussions about the prolife movement. When he told her about some of the
legal persecution that pro-life people face, she
looked at him and said, "Father, if we had laws like
that here in India, I would have been thrown in jail
many times!"
