FROM THE DESK OF DEACON GARY It has been noted that every Catholic household should have a Catholic Bible and the Catechism of the
Catholic Church. This week we will talk about a suggested way to read the Bible. Many start to read the
Bible from cover to cover. They begin with the Book of Genesis and proceed book by book. They often
stop at the Book of Leviticus. A suggested method for reading the Bible is to read the books that contain
the basic story of salvation. These books are:
Genesis, Exodus, Numbers, Joshua, Judges, 1st and 2nd Samuel, 1st and 2nd Kings, Ezra, Nehemiah,
1 Maccabees, Luke, Acts of the Apostles
These books trace the progress of salvation beginning with creation through the early years of the
Church. Once you read these books then concentrate on the other 59 books. If you read four chapters a
day from these 14 books, it will take you 90 days, 2 chapters a day will be 180 days and one chapter a day
will take a year. Reading the Bible in this manner will give you a good foundation about our story of
salvation.
OCTOBER-RESPECT LIFE MONTH Respect Life Mass will be celebrated Sunday,
October 7th, 5:30 p.m. at the
Cathedral of Mary of the Assumption,
Saginaw. Bishop Cistone will
celebrate Mass. As a gift from God,
every human life is sacred from conception to
natural death.
STATUS OF ST MARY CHURCH We have been given approval by the Diocese to
officially put St. Mary Church up for sale. A real
estate firm, the Miller Group, specializing in this
activity, has been contacted. A For Sale sign will
be placed on the property shortly. In the
meantime, we will continue to use St. Mary Church
for its current use. We currently plan on a
Christmas Mass at 6:00 p.m. If you have any
questions please contact Deacon Gary directly.
PUBLIC SQUARE ROSARY RALLY Please join the 2018 Public Rosary Rally Crusade.
Our nation is in great need of public prayer,
repentance and conversion. We ask God to save
America through the Rosary of His Most Holy
Mother. Please join us this Saturday, October
13th outside the Pinconning City Hall beginning at
12 noon. Chairs will be set up. For more
information, please contact Ted Beechum 879-
1397. In case of inclement weather we will meet
at church.
MISSION APPEAL
Rev. Michael Carson, representing the Diocese of
Gallup, will be speaking at our Masses on October
13th-14th, supplying us with information on ways
that we might help further the mission works in his
Diocese. The Diocese of Gallup covers over
55,000 square miles of Northeastern Arizona and
Northwestern New Mexico which encompasses
seven Native American reservations and
pueblos. It serves 63,000 Catholics and this
makes it one of our Nation’s largest and poorest
Diocese. A second collection will be taken.
