Words of Wisdom:
I hope
I can be an autumn leaf, who looked at the sky and lived. And when it was time
to leave, gracefully it knew life was a gift. ~Dodinsky
Octave
of All Saints/All Souls
Once again this year at St.
Stephen’s we will devote an entire week to celebrate the saints in our lives.
In preparation for the Feast of All Saints (which is one of the most important
feast days in our Church year), we will be remembering all of the saints in our
lives (those whom we have loved and who have shown us something of who God is).
We will be offering several opportunities at St. Stephen’s to honor those who
have passed on before us to the larger Communion of Saints.
+ Beginning before this week, a list will be placed in the Narthex for you to
write the names of your deceased loved ones so they may be remembered at the
special Requiem Mass we will celebrate on Wednesday November 1. You can also
send any names to Fr. Jamie at frjamieparsley@gmail.com and he will make sure
that their names placed on the altar on All Saints Sunday and that they are
remembered by name at the Requiem Mass.
Pocket Prairie Update
On Friday November 3 at 10:00am, the
Green Team will be placing cardboard and wood chips on top of a big portion of
St. Stephen's front lawn. The purpose of this activity is to prepare the area
so, in the spring, we can begin planting the St. Stephen's Pocket Prairie! If
you would like to be of assistance, here are some ways you could help:
1) Collect open and flattened
corrugated cardboard (what boxes are made from), and bring it to the church on
November 3 at 10:00 OR contact Amy Phillips and she will come get it from you!
(kaphillip@gmail.com or
701-219-4591)
2) Make a small donation toward the
cost of the wood chips (contact Amy Phillips and she will get it from you
-- kaphillip@gmail.com or
701-219-4591)
3) Come to the church and help us lay
down cardboard and spread wood chips on November 3 at 10:00am.
Thank you for supporting St. Stephen's
efforts to protect God's Creation and to work for environmental sustainability
and responsibility!
