ST. STEPHEN'S
DAY ~ KICK OFF SUNDAY! Its time to celebrate St. Stephen and
kick off our fall programs. Kickoff Sunday is a good time to
begin regular attendance at church, and a great time to catch up
with old friends and make new ones as we come together after the
long summer of travel, sports, and other activities. In
church, we will remember Stephen, our Patron Saint.
We'll sing familiar parish favorite hymns. After church
the children will enjoy a bounce house and fun with friends.
Everyone will enjoy the fabulous lunch put on by the Friars
of St. Stephen’s. Come and celebrate and be a part of this
great faith community.
WHO IS THAT? St.
Stephen's is going to put together a photo directory. Please email a
recent photo to office@ststephensorinda.org This does NOT need to
be a professional photo…just one where we can see your face or your
families faces. We will then print out a directory with names,
photos and phone numbers. If you are not able to email a photo
you can bring one into the office and we can scan it into the
computer. Please email a photo by the end of the summer...or right
now! Our goal is to have as many of our members as possible in
the directory. Thanks
in advance for you prompt response! If you would like to use
the photo from the 2008 directory, please let Brenda in the office
know your wishes.
BAPTISMS are
scheduled for Sunday, November 7, 2010; January 9, 2011; and March
3, 2011 during the 10:00a.m. service.
