        September 30, 2007----Eighteenth Sunday after Pentecost

“Put on then, as God’s holy and beloved people, compassion, kindness, lowliness, meekness, and patience.  Forgive one another; and if one has a complaint against another, as the Lord has forgiven you, so must you also forgive.  And above all these things put on charity, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.  And let the peace of Christ reign in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in the one body.  And always be thankful - - - And whatever you do in word or in deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him” (Colossians 3: 12-15,17).

Please remember to listen to The Culture of Life Radio Hour.  Our own Rev. Father Robert Rankin is a regular on the show. It airs from 4-5 pm Sundays on KVOI 690.

40 DAYS OF PRAYER FOR LIFE, a time set aside for Tucson to fast, pray, and sacrifice for an End to Abortion and to make reparation for the sin of abortion, begins with a "kickoff" Sept 25 and runs through Nov. 4.  Volunteers are also needed to pray peacefully at a local abortuary on weekday and Saturday mornings.  All participants in 40 Days of Prayer for Life are asked to sign a Statement of Peace and a Schedule Confirmation.  Sign-up forms will be available after Masses this weekend.  If you would like more information, e-mail Sunny at AZRTLSUNNYT@yahoo.com or leave your name and number on the Right to Life Message Line 326-1542 and your call will be returned. 
 
St. Gianna's Needs Your Help:  As St. Gianna's continues to grow there is a need for volunteers to assist in the various activities of the community. If you would like to help out or have a special talent you think we could use please contact David Wilson (720-989-6672, the.david.wilson@gmail) or visit the welcome table at the back of the church.  Some examples of areas that we could use your assistance are marketing, community recruitment, fundraising, social event planning, and youth activities.

Please mark your calendars for the 6th Annual Slavic Festival at St. Melany’s Byzantine Catholic Church.  There will be a fun combination of foods, crafts, and folk dancing.  It will be a wonderful opportunity to learn more about the beautiful liturgical traditions of the Byzantine Rite.  This year’s festival is Friday, October 5th, from 4-9 pm and Saturday, October 6th, from 2-9 pm.

Calling All Filmmakers!
Are you the next Martin Scorsese?  Would you like to learn about the fine art of video recording, editing, and broadcasting? St. Gianna would like to videotape High Masses and other special events for distribution and possible broadcast.  The purpose of this is to get the word out about the Latin Mass in the Tucson Diocese and what a wonderful community we have here at St. Gianna's. We are in need of volunteers to video tape the Masses and coordinate their distribution.  It would be great if you have your own video camera or camcorder, but no experience or equipment is necessary.  If you are interested in helping in this effort, please contact David Wilson (720-989-6672, the.david.wilson@gmail.com)

On Thursdays, St. Gianna Latin Mass Community sponsors a Holy Hour with Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament and Confessions at 6 PM, followed by Benediction at 6:45 and Latin Mass at 7 PM at St. Ambrose Church, 300 S. Tucson Blvd.  ALL ARE WELCOME!

Please note:  If you would like to have a record of your donations to St. Gianna's for tax purposes, you must use your envelopes AND record your name and the dollar amount on the envelope each week.  If you need envelopes or registration forms, please contact one of the ushers. 

To submit an intention for Father Reinders to offer the Holy Mass, please put the request in a plain envelope  and mark the envelope clearly as "Mass Requests" and just drop in the Sunday collection.  This way Father has a written copy of the intention for his records and can record it when he is in the office.  A suggested stipend, if offered, is $10, (or whatever you feel you are able to give). If you are writing a check for the stipend, please write it directly to Father Reinders since Mass intentions go to the priest offering the Mass, rather than to the parish itself.
