Our Newman Community and Youth Group will trim Giving Trees and place them in the gathering space at each parish church. Please look for it and select a gift tag. On the tag you will find instructions for purchasing either a child's toy or book, which will be distributed to needy children through Athens County Children's Services or food parcels which will be delivered by our St. Vincent de Paul Society volunteers.

On Saturday, November 2nd, we will remember our departed brothers and sisters at two special Masses. First, we will celebrate Mass at 9:00 AM at St. Paul Church. Then, at 11:30 AM, we will have Mass at St. John Church in Guysville, followed by a cemetery service.
We invite you to write the names of deceased loved ones in the book which will be out in both parishes during the month of November. The book will be in the center aisle at Saint Paul and in the Gathering Space at Christ the King. We will remember all those people in all the Masses offered throughout the month of November. We are also encouraged to pray privately for the dead during the month of November.
