A Return to Ordinary Time�The church once again changes its liturgical season. Beginning this weekend we return to Ordinary time � a time set aside for celebrating our call to follow Jesus day by day as his disciples. Fr. Eric as well as Deacon Jodi will wear green vestments, the color of hope and growth.�

Ordinary Time calls us to reflect upon the Paschal Mystery and our call to discipleship throughout the year. The Sundays of the entire year are counted or set aside as sacred time. Ordinary Time (typically 33 weeks) is celebrated following the Christmas season and then again following Easter.�

PSR 2018�2019�Registration for our upcoming Parish School of Religion (PSR) program will begin on Sunday, July 1st. Registration (and payment of fees) will be done via our parish website. All students who attended PSR last year along with those who have never participated in our program will need to register. If any of the following statements apply to your child we ask that you register them as well by the end of July.�

† If your family is new to St. Theresa of Avila Parish�

† If your child will be in the 1st grade in August, 2018 �

† If your child is baptized and has never attended religious education classes (it doesn’t matter their grade level � we welcome all students in grades 1�12) �

† If your child attended St. John/St. Theresa School last year and now attends a public school (this applies to those who completed 8th grade in May 2018 as well as any student in grades 1 � 8 who may no longer go to a Catholic school) �

† If your child attends St. John Primary and will be in 2nd grade. These students are prepared for the Sacraments of Reconciliation and Eucharist by their appropriate church parish.�

† If you have an 11th grader who attends a Catholic high school and needs to prepare for the Sacrament of Confirmation.�

Contact Alice Blair, Director of Christian Formation, [email protected] or 647�6588, ext. 11, Monday � Thursday, 8:30 a.m. � 4:30 p.m. with any questions. ��
