The Anniversary Weekend will also be our Matching Gift Week-
end. The Sunday collection from all four Masses, along with all
of the donations received during the Gala, will be matched by the

our Anniversary Weekend through the generosity of families

the Sacraments. The class will begin Tuesday, in the St. Mark
room upstairs at the UCC at 7 pm. If you’re looking for a
refresher or to go deeper into the basics of your faith, this is the
place for you. All are welcome. No registration is required. For

Remembering Our Deceased Loved Ones
Traditionally, the month of November has been a special time
for the Church to remember its deceased loved ones. So that we
may keep your dear ones in prayer, we invite you to write the
names of your beloved dead in our Book of Remembrance. This
book will be in the atrium until All Souls Day, next Sunday,
November 2, when it will be blessed at the 5:00 Mass.
We also invite you to bring pictures and mementos of your loved
ones for a special display near the Book of Remembrance. The
Paschal Candle, symbol of Christ's resurrection over death, will
be lit near the book each time we celebrate the Eucharist during
the entire month of November.
Marriage Preparation Workshop
November 14-15, 2008, Friday evening and all day Saturday at
the UCC. Engaged couples and couples considering marriage
are welcome. Registration form is on the UCC website
