Why Loved Ones Leave the Church Presented
by Fr. John Girotti
St. Bernard Parish, September 26, 6:30 p.m.
Fr. John Girotti explores the reasons why family
members, relatives, and friends drift away from the
regular
practice of the Catholic faith. Many who are skeptical
of organized religion will identify themselves as
“spiritual,” but not religious. What can be said of this
growing phenomenon? Can we be spiritual without
being religious?
There are also many parents asking themselves, “I
raised my children Catholic, so why did they leave the
Church?” In fact, it is not uncommon among the younger
generations to claim they are not being fed at Mass. In
the second half of this presentation, Fr. Girotti will also
unpack methods on how Catholics can share the faith
with others and inspire them to be intentional.

Walking Toward Eternity
Shame? Anger? Loneliness? Overcome your struggles with Walking Toward Eternity: Engaging the
Struggles of Your Heart Bible Study. In our busy lives we are faced with obstacles that aggravate us,
discourage us, and can even hinder our relationship with Christ. Finding the time to address them is
often lost by the business of life. How do we overcome these obstacles, and hear God’s voice in our
lives?
Engaging the Struggles of Your Heart, the second series in the Walking Toward Eternity program, is a
challenging study that can open our eyes to obstacles in our Christian walk. Through prayer, reflection, guidance and the aid of the Holy Spirit, we begin to engage these difficulties in a positive way as we continue toward our goal of union with Christ. Join us for Walking Toward Eternity: Engaging the Struggles of Your
Heart at St. Bernard Parish, every Monday for eight weeks beginning October 3, 6 p.m.
A working prayer journal is a large part of this program. $16 per journal. Couples can share a journal.
Each week you will be asked to reflect on the weekly topic. Scholarships available.
For information or to register call Colleen at 739-0331 or email: csargent@stbernardappleton.org.
Guide Book & Directory Advertising Opportunity
We are in the process of updating our annual Guide
Book & Directory for St. Bernard Parish. This book will
contain everything pertinent to St. Bernard Parish: the
various ministries, organizations, committees, activities,
functions and events plus a complete directory of all
members. This book is being provided and directmailed to each family at no cost to St. Bernard, and it
is again being subsidized by local businesses that
advertise. If you own or manage a business and would
like to find out about advertising in our book, please
call Colleen at our Parish Office at 739-0331.
Recent survey results by Guide Book Publishing show
that 92.1% of families would rather patronize a
Guide Book & Directory advertiser than a
non-advertiser. It “will pay” to advertise in our
new Guide Book & Directory.
Update Membership Information
Do we have YOUR family membership record correct?
Here is your chance to update YOUR record for our
annual Guide Book & Directory (if you haven’t already
done so).
It is time for us to update our database with any
changes, additions, or deletions that may have occurred
in YOUR family over the past year.
Have you changed your phone number? Have you
moved? Are you preparing to move soon? Are all of
your children still at home and are they all included in
your membership record? Do you not want your record
published?
If you have not already informed St. Bernard Parish
Office about changes to your record, please let us
know now so that the information in the Guide Book &
Directory is correct.
Please call Edna at our Parish Office at 739-0331.
Thank you for your help!
