CRAFT MAKERS CLUB The Craft Makers Club have been working their hearts out for many years, mostly for our sick & shut-in parishioners. If you have an interest in working on various crafts, art work, creating novelties or gifts, please consider joining our group. You dont have to be talented. We can share our talents with you, or, you can share your talents with us whatever the case may be.
Please, consider
joining us every Monday morning from 9:30-11:30 in the These
special people make rosaries for the Missions, for Sister Frances to give to our
sick parishioners in the hospitals, and for Bob Ushka to distribute to his
Eucharistic Ministers to the Sick who see to it that all of our sick and shut-in
parishioners have rosaries. They make small gifts to celebrate different holidays, and these gifts are given to our sick and shut-in parishioners. For instance, for Halloween they made ghosts which could be pinned to their clothing, or just to have as a decoration. For Christmas, they made 100 snowman, made out of Cremora bottles, to give them when they are visited by their Eucharistic Minister. These adorable snowmen are bound to bring a smile to their faces.
PRAYER
BLANKETS The
Craft Makers Group also made fifty Prayer Blankets in November.
Before they are given to our sick and shut-in parishioners, they were blessed by
Father Jose. The following explanation and prayer will accompany each
Prayer Blanket:
The
Prayer Blanket
This
Prayer Blanket has been designed for you, a special person in the
life
of your parish family. It has been blessed at Mass and prayed
over
by the parishioners of St. Catherine Catholic Church
as
a way of showing their care and concern for the sick.
Prayer
for Healing
Lord,
send Your Holy Spirit and make this blanket an instrument
of
Your healing. We know that You heal not only the mind and body,
but
also the spirit. Grant us the grace to accept Your will with
courage
and take comfort in knowing You are with us always to
strengthen
us, especially through the people of our faith
community
whose prayers are symbolized in this blanket.
MOSES
BASKETS We
are in need of cash donations to purchase supplies for Moses Baskets, which are
used as cribs for the needy. Sometimes the needy put their babies in bed
with them, because they have no bed for their baby.. Statistics show that
many babies suffocate with this sleeping arrangement. We
always need donations for the much-needed baskets. If anyone can help us
with donations, please mail it to us at |
