you must have a copy of his/her Baptismal Certificate and
Certificates for any other Sacraments received. Classes are
held on Sunday mornings from 8:30-9:45 am concluding
with 10 am Mass. We provide an opportunity for children
with special needs and challenges to gather together in a ”Church” setting to learn on their
own level about their Catholic Faith. For more information, please contact Mickie Morris at
the Parish Center, 887-7821. For High School Aged Students (8th—12th grades) registration and a parents meeting will be on August 28 following the 5pm Mass in the Church.

High school juniors (11th grade) wishing to receive the Sacrament of
Confirmation at St. Clement during the Spring of 2017 are invited to
register now through Friday, September 16, 2016. Those students
who are not in Catholic school must attend Parish School of
Religion classes for 2 years prior to receiving the sacrament of
Confirmation. More information on the Confirmation program,
including a schedule, requirements, and registration material are
available in our church foyers, the Parish Center, and on our church
website. For more information, please contact Claire Gallagher at the Parish Center,

Wednesdays at 7:00 pm, beginning September 7, 2016. If anyone knows
someone who may be interested in looking into the Catholic faith, please
invite him or her to fill out a form or contact the Parish Center. This program is open to everyone. All that is required is a desire to learn more about the Catholic faith and an openness to
hear God's call in one's life. Forms can be found in our church foyers, at the
Parish Center, and on our church website. For more information, please contact Mickie Morris at the Parish Center, 887-7821.

garden.

HORA SANTA
El próximo viernes, 5 de agosto, tendremos nuestra
Hora Santa en español a las 7:00 PM en la Iglesia.

¡Todos están invitados a adorar a nuestro Señor con
esta devoción de los primeros viernes!
La Corresponsabilidad Vivida Ahora
Rico o no, hay muchas maneras de compartir las
bendiciones de Dios:
Dona la ropa que esté poco usada y artículos
domésticos a algún lugar benéfico.
Compra en tu comunidad y apoya a los negocios
de tu localidad.
Muéstrate resistente a los anuncios; compra sólo
lo necesario.
Pasa tiempo con familiares y amigos.
Comparte con algún banco de alimento local alimentos que no se echen a perder.
Apoya los esfuerzos de tu parroquia y las causas
buenas con tu tiempo y habilidades.
Apaga el televisor y emplea ese tiempo para montar en bicicleta, practicar el excursionismo, la pesca,
una buena lectura o simplemente caminar y dar un
paseo por ahí.
Sé bueno con el planeta tierra: Disminuye los
residuos, recicla, siembra un jardín.

WHY IS IT
A man wakes up after sleeping
under an ADVERTISED blanket
on an ADVERTISED mattress
and pulls off ADVERTISED pajamas
bathes in an ADVERTISED shower
shaves with an ADVERTISED razor
brushes his teeth
with ADVERTISED toothpaste
washes with ADVERTISED soap
puts on ADVERTISED clothes
drinks a cup
of ADVERTISED coffee
drives to work
in an ADVERTISED car
and then . . . .
refuses to ADVERTISE
believing it doesn’t pay.
Later if business is poor
he ADVERTISES it for sale.
WHY IS IT?
Following Jesus Every Day:
GOSPEL MEDITATIONS FOR DAILY LIVING
Ninety days’ worth of Gospel verses and reflections including
a meditation, a prayer, a simple activity for the day and
a related verse from the Old Testament. Ideal for Lent
and Eastertime, or for any time of year!
