Fox
Valley Families Against
Planned Parenthood
Fox Valley Families Against
Planned Parenthood is a
grassroots coalition of
citizens who oppose the
Planned Parenthood facility
planning to open soon at
3051
E. New York
St.
in Aurora, IL.
We believe that Planned
Parenthood is bad for our
community, with a long track
record of undermining
parents, leading young
people into unhealthy sexual
behavior, and above all
taking the lives of unborn
babies through abortion.
Join your voice to those
speaking out against this
most unwelcome neighbor.
You are invited to take
place in a 40-Day Prayer
Vigil during the days and
weeks leading up to Planned
Parenthood's scheduled
opening.
To pledge any
day with an hour of
prayer for the sanctity of
life go
to http://familiesagainstplannedparenthood.org/
.
Also prayers and sacrifices
all through the 40 days to
stop the abortion facility
from being opened and for
all of those who are praying
at the sight are needed.
See message from
Bishop
Sartain.
The full text of Bishop
Sartain’s letter is
available in the parish
bulletin or online at
www.dioceseofjoliet.org
or in the
Catholic Explorer.

New Nursery Paging System
- No more
wondering, "How will I know if my child in the nursery needs me?" No
more having to leave mass to run downstairs and peek to make sure
everything’s alright. The nursery now has a paging system! Each parent
will be issued a silent, vibrating pager when they drop their child off
in the nursery so that they can be contacted during mass should their
child need them for any reason. Thank you to Kay Stark and Wendy Ryno
for their efforts on this project.
ATTENTION!
Dream Builder Certificates are available at the Parish Center Monday
through Friday.
Please read the
Parish Bulletin for more information and announcements.

PLEASE NOTE:
It is against fire code to park in the circles at the building entrances.

SUPPORTING OUR TROOPS - As we pray for peace,
please keep our troops in your prayers. In support of our troops, a list of
those serving in the armed forces has been placed on the Altar in the
Worship Center. Additionally, yellow ribbons have been added to a few of the
trees outside as well as to the pole of the American Flag in the Narthex.
COURTESY CALL - As a courtesy to all our parishioners, please remember to
set your phones and pagers so they are not audible during Mass. In doing this, everyone in
church can participate in the celebration of the Mass without this distraction. If you do
have to take a call, please go out into the Narthex. Thank you for your courtesy.
PERPETUAL EUCHARISTIC ADORATION -The
chapel is open now in the Parish Center! Stop by anytime for a visit. There
is a special code to enter after dark for security reasons. To sign up for
