Hi, my name is Samantha Roy. I live in Hampton and have grown up as a member of the Our
Lady community. I am currently a senior at Salve Regina University and am majoring in So-
cial Work. This year I am participating in a mission trip to Jamaica with Mustard Seed Com-
munities. Mustard Seed is a non profit Christian based organization which supports disabled
and abandoned children in marginalized communities. Mustard Seed asks that all volunteers
fundraise as part of their mission. I hope to raise $950 in support of this great cause. Would you please consider
supporting me? Donations can be accepted by check (made out to Mustard Seed Communities) and sent to my
home address (58 Locke Rd. Hampton) or by visiting my personal donation page. https://secure3.convio.net/

We are looking for disciples (catechists) to be part of our RCIA Team... Can you be described by the following?
• Are you a person of deep faith? • Are you Catholic?
Meaning you are someone who was not only baptized and goes to Mass but someone who loves being Catholic, who l oves all the beauty and complexity of what it means to be Catholic. A person who believes any disappointment with the Catholic institution pales next to the joy of living the Catholic life.
• Are you Scriptural? Not as a scripture scholar, but as someone who knows the central stories that are proclaimed throughout the liturgical year.
• Are you Traditional (in the good sense)? Aware of the Catholic Church's established teachings on basic doctrine and social issues.
• Are you open to learning? A good catechist realizes that he or she may not have all the answers to some challenging questions. He or she is learning more about Jesus all the time, just as the catechumens are.
If this is, you? We would love to have you become part of our RCIA Team bringing people to Christ and our Catholic Faith. If you are interested in learning more about the RCIA program and how you can participate… Please contact Bob Marston by email: [email protected] or phone 603-926-2206 x 118

...a journey in faith
Become the woman of grace God created you to be!
The Women of Grace Foundational Study, FULL OF GRACE: WOMEN AND THE ABUNDANT LIFE is a dynamic program for Catholic women, encouraging study participants to come to a fuller understanding of their dignity and vocation as daughters of God. They'll dig deep into Catholic teaching to examine their gift of authentic femininity using the study text "FULL OF GRACE", Sacred Scripture, the Catechism, citations from Vatican II and other Magisterial Documents, as well as the biographies of 16 Catholic women saints. As they learn the great gift of authentic femininity and how to live it out in the world today, hearts are healed, lives are changed, and souls are saved!
Wednesdays 10:00am-12:00pm or 6:00pm-8:00pm, beginning September 25th

Below is just one of the many CD titles available in our Lighthouse Media Collection:
Could God Love Someone Like Me?
Fr. Mike Schmitz, one of the leading presenters in the Church today, speaks powerfully about the Sacrament of Reconciliation. He makes clear the truth that Christ deeply loves and wants to encounter each of us as we are, with all our imperfections. Fr. Mike debunks the lies we often believe about not being good enough to approach Jesus, and he draws upon Scripture to explain rationally why we go to priests to encounter God’s mercy and forgiveness in Confession.
How To Pray the Holy Rosary The Rosary's rich simplicity has provided solace and courage in rocky times for centuries. Now, as new generations of Catholics face war, economic uncertainty, and moral upheaval, the Rosary is needed as much as ever. As interest in this beautiful devotion continues to rise, this pamphlet can be used as an introduction to, or reinforcement of, the power of the Rosary. This attractive and concise guide will instruct and inspire Catholics in the gentle rhythms and fervent hope of the Rosary.
We kindly ask for a donation of $5.00 per book (or otherwise specified suggested donation), $4.00 per CD (or 3 for $10.00), and $3.00 per booklet so that we may continue this program. Please make all checks out to “OLMM.” Won’t you reach out and help bring someone home?

Dear Fellow Parishioners,
Your local counsel of The Knights of Columbus is once again asking for assistance with The Hampton Beach
Seafood Festival. As you know, with your help we staff the admission gates as our biggest fundraiser each year.
Your volunteer hours enable us to continue our support so many worthwhile causes including:
This year we are proud to announce that we will be buying a 4-D Ultrasound machine for Options for Women, a
local pregnancy crisis center. This state of the art machine will provide pregnant mothers an understanding of the
humanity of their pre-born children and help them make informed decisions that will result in babies saved from
abortion. If you would like to help, we are seeking Seafood Festival volunteers. Know that by contributing a few
hours of your time, you can make a difference and can help save a life! For more information or to sign up, please
contact Dave Skonieczki at [email protected] or 603-769-0328.
Thank you in advance and may God bless you,
