Adult Faith Formation has started classes again. Classes are via zoom every Monday at 6:30 pm. Currently, we are finishing the Bible course. In about six weeks we will start a new course.

Adult Faith Formation

* Religious Education classes will be offered in person only. (Unfortunately, we do not have the manpower to offer a hybrid program.) * Registration for RE will be held Aug. 16th and continue to Sept. 12th. * Classes will begin at 9:15 AM on Sunday, Sept. 13th. * We will have safety precautions in place: temperature checking, parents will not be

allowed to come in the building, social distancing, masks required, only one entrance and only one exit (to avoid people traffic), rooms will be fogged/disinfected.

* If you do not feel comfortable bringing your children to class, you may register them on our website and pay online. We will give you the book so you can teach your children at your convenience.

* Registered children that do not come to class at the beginning, can come to class whenever it is convenient later on as the situation gets better.

First Communion class (2nd grade) will have special sessions with parents (some in person, some online meetings).

Stay tuned for more details and announcements.

Building Project Update The building project continues to move forward! Architect Phil Laney, with Lyman Davidson Dooley, joined us on campus on August 26th for another planning workshop. We are working hard to keep the best features of the existing buildings, such as the beautiful ceiling in the Parish Hall and the existing kitchen, and are making sure the new additions are multi-use. And, of course, we will also properly address the past flooding issues.

Students attending classes at Trinity Catholic School will also be attending Mass and receiving Holy Communion. In order to ensure their health and welfare, Separate masses will be held for the children only.

Lord Jesus Christ, our Divine Physician, We ask you to guard and protect us from Coronavirus COVID-19 and all serious illness. For all that have died from it, have mercy; for those that are ill now, bring healing. For those searching for a remedy, enlighten them; for medical caregivers helping the sick, strengthen and shield them. For those working to contain the spread, grant success; for those afraid, grant peace. May your precious blood be our defense and salvation. By your grace, may you turn the evil of disease into moments of consolation and hope. May we always fear the contagion of sin more than any illness. We abandon ourselves to your infinite mercy. Amen.

Prayer During Coronavirus

From the Office of Bishop Wack...

Thank you all for your assistance in helping us promote the Growing & Living Conference. On August 6, 2020, Bishop Bill's invitational video was posted on the Diocese of Pensacola-Tallahassee social media platforms. Some of you have already shared the post. If you haven't yet, please consider sharing (available through the Diocese of Pensacola-Tallahassee website).

Are you a baptized Catholic over 18 who has not received the Sacrament

of Confirmation? Perhaps now is the time to hear the voice of the Lord

and open your heart to receive the Gift of the Holy Spirit. This November.

Bishop Wack will be celebrating the Sacrament of Confirmation for adults.

Check with your parish for more information and preparation or contact

Sister Margaret Kuntz at 850-435-3523 or kuntzm@ptdiocese.org.
