Heads of Ministries and Facilitators,

The Parish is in the process of putting together a Parish Directory.  I have volunteered to help coordinate this effort. 

I am appealing to all of you to help me gather volunteers to man the sign up tables that will be at each Mass on Saturday and Sunday. 

Currently we are doing this for the next four weeks.  This is to allow every Parishioner the opportunity to schedule an appointment for

having their picture taken to put in the directory.  Everything necessary will be provided with a schedule of available appointment times.

I really need the help and support of all the leaders of the Parish Ministries and SCC’s to gather volunteers for this effort.  It should

require no more than thirty minutes after the Mass the  volunteer regularly attends to stay and assist in helping their fellow Parishioners

to sign up.

Please let me know of any one you think would be willing to help.  Either reply to this EMAIL or call me at (760) 724-7393.

Yours in Christ,

Ray Werner

Greetings to all,

For those of you who don't know me, I am Marta Werner and I have recently taken the role of Volunteer Coordinator for the parish.  In my efforts to identify the need for volunteers in our parish and to better support your needs as Head of Ministry, I would like to start by updating the Ministries Brochures.  This has not been done in a long time and it would be a great tool for new and current parishioners as they identify the various ministries our parish has to offer prior to making a decision where to spend their time and talents.  

Please complete the information below and forward it back to Karen Willson and myself as soon as possible.  I have also attached a sample brochure already completed by the Lectors.  This will give you an idea of what we are trying to accomplish with the information you will provide to us.  I will be working with Karen Willson to ensure we complete this project by mid-September.

This project will take some time to complete. In order to meet our deadline, we will also need your help in taking some pictures to enhance your brochures.  Please email and/or call Karen Willson or myself to schedule a time when you and/or members of your ministry can come to the parish to take some action pictures.

Once each brochure is complete we will email you the final product for you to review before we make copies and have them available for the public at the office and worship spaces.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to call or email me.

I thank you for your time and hope to start hearing from all of you soon!

Blessings,

Marta Werner

Memorial Day

Memorial Day, originally called Decoration Day, is a day of remembrance for those who have died in our nation's service. There are many stories as to its actual beginnings, with over two dozen cities and towns laying claim to being the birthplace of Memorial Day. It is more likely that it had many separate beginnings; each of those towns and every planned or spontaneous gathering of people to honor the war dead in the 1860's tapped into the general human need to honor our dead, each contributed honorably to the growing movement that culminated in Gen Logan giving his official proclamation in 1868. It is not important who was the very first, what is important is that Memorial Day was established. It is about reconciliation; it is about coming together to honor those who gave their all.

Traditional observance of Memorial Day has diminished over the years. Many Americans nowadays have forgotten the meaning and traditions of Memorial Day.  At many cemeteries, the graves of the fallen are increasingly ignored, neglected. Most people no longer remember the proper flag etiquette for the day. While there are towns and cities that still hold Memorial Day parades, many have not held a parade in decades. Some people think the day is for honoring any and all dead, and not just those fallen in service to our country.

In 1951, the Boy Scouts and Cub Scouts of St. Louis began placing flags on the 150,000 graves at Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery as an annual Good Turn, a practice that continues to this day. More recently, beginning in 1998, on the Saturday before the observed day for Memorial Day, the Boys Scouts and Girl Scouts place a candle at each of approximately 15,300 grave sites of soldiers buried at Fredericksburg and Spotsylvania National Military Park on Marye's Heights (the Luminaria Program). And in 2004, Washington D.C. held its first Memorial Day parade in over 60 years.

To help re-educate and remind Americans of the true meaning of Memorial Day, the "National Moment of Remembrance" resolution was passed on Dec 2000 which asks that at 3 p.m. local time, for all Americans "To voluntarily and informally observe in their own way a Moment of remembrance and respect, pausing from whatever they are doing for a moment of silence or listening to 'Taps."
