He woke up, rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, "Quiet!  Be still!"  The wind ceased and there was great calm.  Then he asked them, "Why are you terrified?  Do you not yet have faith?"

- Mk 4:39-40

BAKE SALE

The Women’s Society holds a bake sale after OLF masses this weekend.  Just in time for Father’s Day, too!   Proceeds benefit NH Catholic Charities.

 

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY!

The first celebration of Father’s Day is thought to have been in July 1908 in Fairmont, West Virginia.  Grace Golden Clayton suggested the special observance to her pastor after a deadly explosion in a nearby town killed 361 men.  Soon after, Sonora Smart Dodd of Spokane, Washington wanted to show her gratitude to her father, who’d cared for the family after his wife died.  Dodd asked her pastor to choose a June Sunday to honor all fathers, and he selected June 19, 1910.

In 1924, President Coolidge suggested that Father’s Day become a national holiday.  In 1966, President Johnson designated the third Sunday of June to be Father’s Day.  Six years later, President Nixon instituted Father’s Day as a national observance.

 

RELIGIOUS EDUCATION UPDATE

Cheryl will be out of the office for about 8 weeks.  Religious Ed forms for the 2009 - 2010 school year will be mailed mid August.  If your child is new to our parish program, please call the office at 526-4484 Mon through Fri from 9AM to 3PM.

INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS

Colby-Sawyer College is accepting 25 new international students this fall from all over the world!  Each of those students will be matched with a local “Friendship Family” so that they have a local community connection as they adjust to American life.  These families welcome them to the area, show them around, perhaps take them shopping or have them over for a meal once in a while.  They answer questions and give advice, take them to the bus stop or send a quick email to see how they’re doing.  If you are interested, join an informational meeting Wednesday, June 24th at 10am at Marsha Johnson’s home.  RSVP to Marsha, 526-4506 or Cindy Benson, 526-3719.
