Friday, March 21, 2008, is a day of fast and abstinence. All Fridays of Lent are days of
abstinence. Fast binds all those 18 to
59 years of age. On days of fast, one
full meal is allowed. Two other meals,
sufficient to maintain strength, may be taken according to each one’s needs,
but together they should not equal another full meal. Eating between meals is not permitted;
liquids are allowed. Abstinence binds
all those over the age of 14. On a day
of abstinence no meat is allowed. “No
one should lightly excuse themselves” from the laudatory practice of fast and
abstinence during the Lenten season.
St. Mary’s Parish Council will meet Wednesday, March 26,
2008, at 7:30 p.m. Please not: This is a date
change.
There will not be a Parish Council meeting in

Center in Independence, MO. The IPT is
highly regarded as a program that is based on Sacred Scripture, Vatican II, the
classics of Catholic spirituality, documents on the liturgy, and the writings
of Pope John Paul II and Benedict XVI.
Classes meet one weekend per month, ten months each year. For further information, please call the IPT
toll-free at 866-866-1100 or e-mail at ipt@avemaria.edu

Anyone wishing to contribute towards having
memorial flowers on the altar at St. Mary’s should contact Beverly at Lauren
Claire, 542-3477, or Ann Campbell, 542-0234.
The Altar Society will provide flowers two weeks of each month. If you have questions, please call either of

Please
remember that contributions may be made to the St. Mary’s Msgr. Summers
Scholarship Fund at any time during the year.
You may drop them in the offering baskets marked for “Scholarship Fund”,
or stop by the Parish Office during the business hours.
Please continue to save Best Choice UPC labels
and put them in the container in the vestibule of the church. Proceeds from the UPC labels are a fund raiser
for the St. Anne’s Altar Society. If you
have any questions, please contact Judy Adams, who is in charge of the
project. Thanks!
Please remember when you can not serve as a Mass
Assistant on the day you have been scheduled, it is your responsibility to find
someone to take your place. Thank you!
If
you have items of interest for the bulletin or would like a Mass said, please call
the Parish Office with your need instead of telling Fr. or Cheryl in other
places besides church or the Parish Office. If that is not handy for you,
please give them your request in writing so that it will not be forgotten when
they return to the Parish Office. If you have money, please put it in an
envelope and designate what it is for. Thank you.

MISSOURI POEM:
It’s winter in Missouri Oh, how I love Missouri Yes,
the weather here is wonderful,
And the gentle breezes blow— When the snow’s up to your neck! So I guess I’ll hang
around
Fifty miles an hour You
take a breath of winter I
could never leave Missouri
At twenty-five below. And your nose gets frozen shut. ‘Cause I’m frozen
to the ground!!!!!
