3 Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, This catalog is a token of our love for you. It is also our pledge to you: to spend our energies building up of the Body of Christ here in our community. Jesus, Who poured out His Life for us, has given us everything we need to grow in His Image, unto the fullness of His Life here on earth, and someday in eternal joy and glory. Therefore we have worked very carefully to include in our programs something for everyone. In these pages you will find a picture of life in our Parish Family for the coming year. It is almost a complete picture. Almost. Yes, we may have left a couple of things out. But the most important element that is missing from this picture is you. Your presence here as a member of the family of God is what we value and cherish the most. So we hope you will take a little time to look over this catalog with your loved ones, and that you ll be a part of the picture of Life in Christ here at St. Paul s.

Pope Benedict XVI RCIA - Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults Monday 6:00PM 8:00PM in Rooms 5 & 6, September through May From the time of the apostles, becoming a Christian has been accomplished by a journey and initiation in several stages. (The) proclamation of the Word, acceptance of the Gospel (and) conversion, profession of faith, and Baptism itself, the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, and admission to Eucharistic communion. Catechism of the Catholic Church #1229 RCIA is the spiritual journey of preparation for unbaptized adults, baptized Catholics and baptized non -Catholic Christians who wish to enter into full communion with Christ and His Church. During the various stages of the RCIA, participants are introduced to the beliefs and practices of the Catholic Faith.

St. Paul Catholic Community celebrates your engagement and our Lord s call to live the holy Sacrament of Marriage. The Diocese of Phoenix currently requires a minimum of 9 months of preparation for the Sacrament of Matrimony. Couples must be registered, active parishioners of St. Paul s, and should notify the parish at least nine months prior to the desired wedding date. WEDDINGS Once you start the Marriage Preparation process, the next step is to plan your wedding day. To host your Nuptial Liturgy, you may choose from one of two beautiful, sacred spaces here: our light-filled main church or our very intimate chapel. Wedding receptions are also held in the spacious O Carroll Hall complete with a dance floor or in our Conference Center (even if your ceremony took place elsewhere). NATURAL FAMILY PLANNING (NFP) Natural Family Planning respects God s design for married love. An understanding of the benefits of NFP is a vital part of preparation for the Sacrament of Marriage and a requirement in the Diocese of Phoenix. Please register on the Natural Family Planning s website at ANNULMENTS The transcendent joy and dignity of the Sacrament of Marriage requires that we remove any and all impediments that may thwart our ability to truly receive that grace imparted in the sacrament. St. Paul s Nullity Minister is specially trained and ready to guide you through the process of seeking healing from a possible annulment. S P I R I T UA L WO R K S O F M E R C Y Funerals & Memorials The Mass is the highest prayer the Church has to offer. Have Mass celebrated for the repose of the soul of your loved one. Preplanning is available by contacting the Liturgy Office. In addition to specially scheduled Masses according to the Order of Christian Funerals, Mass intentions are available every day of the week whereby the Mass of Day is offered on someone s behalf.
