If you have, then the RCIA process is for you! The RCIA process is a flexible and multi-step process that meets people where they are and guides them in discerning whether or not God is leading them into full initiation into the Catholic church. We begin sessions on September 19 in Lower Brendan House. Come and see! For more information, contact Pat Ibach at the Parish Office or pati@saintbrendan.org Please pray for the sick: Lillian Blanks Rosemary Byrnes Karen Dedman Mary Estelle Erika Ferreri Anthony Fiorita John Flynn Louise Ford Serena Herrick Marilyn Hein Ben Ibach Wally Irvin Joyce Kostelecky Tony Merlitti James Moran Fr.

Government provides it but it is not free. The fees pose a huge burden to families in Malawi who struggle to raise enough money. There are not as many secondary schools. Only 13% of students go beyond primary school. Students take a test at the end of Form 2 and must pass to receive their Junior Certificate of Education (JCE) to proceed on to Form 3 & 4. They then graduate after Form 4 if they pass the exams to receive the Malawi Secondary Certificate of Education, MSCE. Students study English, math, agriculture, physics, biology, geography, history, bible knowledge, social studies and Chichewa, the native language. Schools struggle with poor student to teacher ratio, access to books and learning materials, adequate classroom facilities and trained teachers. Please continue to send travel mercies to the delegation preparing to take the longest journey of their lives to visit us October 1st. Questions? Marie at PAGE 3

4 DO YOU KNOW Our Salvation History: A Chosen People (answers next week) 1. Who are some of the first Chosen People in the Bible? (Genesis 1: 27; Genesis 12: 2-3; Exodus 3: 4) 2. Who were the people chosen by Jesus? (Mark 9:35; 10:32; 11:11; John 6:67 71; 20:24). 3. Are we chosen by God? How do we know? (1st Peter 2: 9; Ephesians 1: 4-5) 4. Paul reminded Timothy that he was chosen for ministry by the laying on of hands. Which Sacrament is this? (1Timothy 4: 14) OLD TESTAMENT FRIENDS ADAM & EVE GINGERBREAD MAN: The gingerbread man does not create himself but rather is created. Gingerbread people remind us of God s creation of Adam in the Garden of Eden, and God s creation of each of us. Spices, reminiscent of those mentioned in the Old Testament, make the gingerbread man the color of earth (Adam was created from the dust of the earth). Like us, gingerbread people are not immortal. They are destined to be eaten and thus to unite with their creators. God does not eat us (rather we consume His Body and Blood in the Eucharist), but our mortal bodies, like that of the gingerbread man s, will not live forever. God created us for eternal union with Him after we die. Gingerbread people remind us to look beyond ourselves to our Creator with whom we will one day be united.

BRENDAN LIGHT OF CHRIST PRAYER GROUP Meets every Wednesday, 7:30 9:00 pm in Church Healing Ministry every Third Wednesday of the month Questions/Contacts: msmeby18@gmail.com RESPECT LIFE PRO-LIFE BILLBOARDS Pro-life messages can and do change minds. Where once the majority of people through abortions were okay, the tide has turned and the majority now stand with us. This is due, in part, to efforts like the billboard people, Prolife Washington who through their messages have made a difference in the live of the Unborn and their mothers. Educating the public via billboards is an important means in the campaign to convince everyone that human life is sacred. Please pick-up a baby bottle after Mass the weekend of October 1/2 and start saving your SPARE CHANGE FOR LIFE. The money from your parish will purchase billboard space in your area. We will let you know where these billboards are located through October and November. St. Brendan donated enough money during the last campaign to pay for 5 billboards. Let s again allow our change to change hearts and to build a Culture of Life. Thanks so much for your support. Please return your bottles in 3 weeks October 22/23. Questions? Call Sam Affronte at YOUNG AT HEART SENIORS Parishioners (60+) are invited to the Young at Heart meeting on Tuesday, September 27, from 11:00 am 1:00 pm in the Church Narthex.
