TRIUMPH OF THE CROSS PARISH COMMUNITY NEWS

IMMACULATE HEART FUND COLLECTION:

In your packet is an envelope that has this title on it. Some have asked, “What is this?” This is a Diocesan Fund that stu-

dents from our Catholic Schools can receive tuition assistance. The Register publishes each year the amounts distributed.

The needs remain greater than the amount that can be distributed from this fund.

What is the tuition rate for our Catholic Schools in Steubenville? This is part of the Tuition Chart. The rates for out-of-

parish students and Non-Catholic students are higher.

In- Parish Catholic Rates

Triumph of the Cross parish is committed to our families and will also provide tuition assistance after the family has applied

for assistance from all other scholarship programs that are offered. We endeavor to deny no parent the ability to provide

for their children the religious formation program that they choose – Catholic Schools or PSR programs.

You Are Invited to a Farewell Reception for Father

Bartholomew Ogumelu: Fr. Bartholomew is from Nigeria and

has been living in the rectory at Holy Name Cathedral, attending Franciscan University and celebrating liturgies for

Triumph of the Cross Parish since 2011. He has completed his studies at Franciscan and is moving. There will be a

reception held for him on October 4, 2015 in the Marian Room at Holy Rosary after the 10:00 am Mass. Light re-

freshments will be served. Please come to help us thank Fr. Bart for being a joyful presence in our parish community

and to send him off with prayers and good wishes.

CONGRATULATIONS: On the feast day of Triumph of the Cross Parish we had the joy of celebrating with the Sisters of

the Family of Jacopa Association. During the evening Mass Sr. Kathleen Marshall made her 1st Temporary Vow as a Sister of

Jacopa, received her habit and her new name in Religion as Sister Rose Catherine of The Triumph of the Cross. She now is

the Mother Superior of this association dedicated to the service of widows.

After the Mass Sr. Ellen received the holy habit and celebrated her Novice ceremony. She received her name in religion.

Sr. Pia Teresa of the Blessed Sacrament.

This was possible through Bishop Monforton approving their petition to be a Public Association of the Christian Faithful. He

also made their Monastery a Marian Shrine. They are the Mary, Ark of the Covenant Monastery and will have the beautiful

statute of Mary, Ark of the New Covenant and Icon picture. They will be a pro-life shrine and place for mothers, women and

families to come who want to pray and receive healing for the death of their children through natural causes, miscarriage

and abortion. We are delighted to continue seeing the mighty love of Christ guiding his people in their vocations and lives

seeking holiness. As the Lord has blessed, may our prayers for one another be filled with Thanksgiving.

CONDOLENCES (CCC 1405) “There is no surer pledge or clearer

sign of this great hope in the new heavens and new

earth ‘in which righteousness dwells,’ than the

Eucharist. Every time this mystery is celebrated,

‘the work of our redemption is carried on’ and we

‘break the one bread that provides the medicine of

immortality, the antidote for death, and the food

that makes us live forever in Jesus Christ.’” With

this great hope we pray for our sister who has

died:

Dorothy A. McDonough, 89, September 7

May she enjoy the eternal banquet the Lord

has prepared for her.

PARISH PRAYER: LORD, we desire that our prayers be

heard according to your will. Grant that our parish may be

united in heart, mind, and spirit; may your love be in our

hearts and we become the parish You have envisioned for

us. O Lord, open the eyes of our hearts to see the face of

Christ in each other. We ask this through Christ our Lord.

Amen.
