October 2, 2019Please keep our 76 confirmands in your prayers as they will be confirmed by Bishop Zubik on October 20 at 2:00 pm at St. Vitus. My sincere gratitude to all of the parents and catechists for helping our young people prepare for this important sacrament. Please remember that Confirmation is not the end of one’s relationship with the parish or one’s education in the faith, it is just the beginning. We hope and encourage all of our newly confirmed to fully participate in the life of the parish by embracing liturgical ministries, outreach opportunities and our youth ministry and CYO.
Speaking of CYO, their major reunion will be on the same evening as confirmation, October 20, at Mary, Mother of Hope site in the Parish Center from 5:00 pm till 9:00. Thanks to the CYO alumni for organizing and reestablishing a CYO program for our teens. This is a tremendous sign of their love for our young people and our Catholic faith.
On October 19, there will be a special Mass at 10:00 am at St. Vitus for all those in need of the Sacrament of Anointing. This is a wonderful opportunity for you, or one of your loved ones, to experience the healing powers of this very special sacrament. If you know of someone who needs the Sacrament of Anointing, please make every effort to bring them. If you yourself are in need of the sacrament and have no way of getting here, please call the parish office 724-652-3422.

God love you,
