CHILDREN’S FAITH FORMATION

PARISH RELIGIOUS EDUCATION REGISTRATION FOR 2015-16: Register now for 2015-16 year. Forms are availa-ble on the Church website or outside the PRE office (off the Fellowship Hall). The Diocese does require that children making their sacraments must have two years of religious education prior to receiving the sacrament. Catechists and assistant catechists are always needed. If you teach, you receive 50% off your registration fee! VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL: VBS is June 8 - 12, from 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM for children 3 yrs.-5th grade. Students entering into 6th grade - 12th grade may sign up to help! Join us for a “Walk on the Wild Side!” The week includes crafts, music, games, puppet shows, story time and snacks! We need adult and teen volunteers. Forms are on the Church website and outside the PRE office. Register by May 20, to get a t-shirt!

YOUTH MINISTRY ATTENTION YOUTH 16 AND OLDER: Fr. Ernie is looking for teens to serve as Eucharistic Ministers and Lectors at the various masses each weekend. If you would like to be trained to serve God in this way, please contact Rebecca Talarico at (901) 850-2696 or [email protected].

ADULT FAITH FORMATION If you’ve been coming to Mass for a while, but are not a fully initiated Catholic, we invite you to look deeper into the Catholic faith. Come meet some faithful Catholics who love the Lord and would consider it a privilege to get to know you. Our parish will soon begin a set of sessions to share with others the truths of the Catholic faith and the fellowship of our church family. We invite you to learn what Catholics believe in an open and welcoming environment. These sessions also are opportunities for you to ask those perplexing and difficult questions you may have about the church. Please call 853-0135 for further information.

2015 Bishop’s Annual Appeal Thanks to all our parishioners who have made their gift to the 2015 Bishop’s Annual Appeal. Incarnation Catholic Church is 71% toward our goal of $127,000. If you have not yet made a gift or pledge, please fill out a commitment

card located on the Welcome Desk. Please participate in the support of our diocesan church.
