Curious about RCIA? Know someone who is considering becoming Catholic?

You are cordially invited to learn what Catholics believe in an open and welcoming environment through the RCIA Program. RCIA stands for the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults. Anyone is welcome to participate - from folks who have been baptized in a different Christian faith to those who have never been baptized in any faith to ‘cradle Catholics’ who want to know the Catholic faith more completely. Through RCIA, adults can become fully initiated into the Catholic Church by receiving Baptism, First Holy Communion and/or Confirmation if they desire. The first RCIA session is scheduled for Thursday, October 10 from 6:30-8 PM in St John the Baptist School Conference Room (next to the School Office). Contact Paige Katzfey via phone at (920) 892-4006 x118 or email at pkatzfey@sjbplymouth.org for more information and/or to register.

If you love to sing… Join the Choir: Every Wednesday from 6-7, Everyone Welcome!

“Kicking” It with Jesus: Sunday, September 29th at noon for a game and lunch at June Vollrath Park. ALL are WELCOME!

First RCIA session (SJB School): October 10th at 6:30pm

Town Hall Meeting/Dinner: October 5th after 5:30pm Mass. Sign up online or at the main entrance, deadline: Tuesday, October 1st.

Memorial Mass: November 2nd 5:30pm Mass.

Annual Fall Clothing Swap

Dear parents, grandparents and soon-to-be parents and grandparents, You are cordially invited to stop by for the second annual Fall Clothing Swap! Sunday, October 6th at SJB Church Hall/Cafeteria after 9:30 am Mass. The idea of a clothing swap is pretty self-explanatory (drop off some clothes to donate and shop for new-to-you clothes - all free of charge). However, you do not need to donate to shop, so please tell and bring expecting parents! Nobody will be turned away. This is a win/win for everyone, true community building, and a great way to meet some other parents! There will be light refreshments and in case it wasn’t explicit, this is a kid-friendly event (crying, laughing, nursing, ruckus are all welcome). Here are all the details:

Drop off gently used or new maternity, infant, or kids clothes:

• The week of Sept 30 - Oct 4 during SJB school hours in the school office bins labeled Clothing Swap

Sept 28/29 before or after Masses at STA baskets by Chapel

Sept 28/29 before or after Masses at SJB baskets in the entrance to Church

Shop for new-to-you clothes (maternity, infant, and kids clothes):

• Sunday, October 6 after 9:30 am Mass in the Church Hall from 10:30 am to 12:30 pm
