Happy 40th Anniversary Catholic Engaged Encounter!

The Venturas represented us the last weekend in August for the Unit meeting in Tallahassee. The most exciting thing to come from that weekend is our preparation for next month- the 40th Anniversary for CEE! At our September enrichment this past Friday we discussed our plan. We'll post the daily prayers that we passed out at the meeting on the blog and Facebook. Instead of the enrichment scheduled, we're going to have a 40th Anniversary party on October 31st (Halloween). Fr. Tim Lozier will preside a mass at 11am at the outdoor altar at Marywood. Then we'll have a party afterwards (details to come). We also talked about taking it up a notch to celebrate 40 years by giving back. We're going to choose a family to help. Maybe it's yard work and doing a "honey do" list for an older couple or bringing gifts and a Christmas dinner to a family with children. As a ministry, we will get together and give back to a family in need. Then, we are going to challenge other ministries in our diocese to do the same. Our goal is 40 ministries and 40 families! Game on!
