Also, consider being a sponsor for one of the inquirers. This fall there will also be a group for teens and children. For more info contact Pete Ries at 517-351-5460 ext. 1328 or pries@elcatholics.org. Fr. Mark’s Remarks Rev. Jim Wallis graduated from MSU in 1977. So did I! We both went into ministry. Jim became editor of Sojourners magazine and his columns appear in many major newspapers. He appears as a commentator on both CNN, Fox and MSNBC. He has taught at Harvard and Georgetown. Sojourners is a magazine and online publication that sits at the intersection of faith, politics and culture. Their coverage goes beyond the trending headlines to uncover and explore in depth the hidden injustices in the world around us. It seeks truth as informed by our biblical roots in partnership with people of other perspectives for the common good of communities, families and individuals. It inspires hope and builds a movement to transform individuals, communities, the church, and the world. He is coming to Michigan and will speak at Gesu Catholic Church in Detroit, near the University of Detroit-Mercy on September 11, at Calvin College in Grand Rapids on September 12, and at Michigan State University on Tuesday, September 13. He will be in conversation from 7:00 to 9:00pm at the Kellogg Center Auditorium, 219 S. Harrison Road. Free! He will speak about his new book, “America’s Original Sin: Racism, White Privilege, and the Bridge to a New America.” He speaks candidly to Christians, urging them to cross a new bridge toward racial justice and healing. Take advantage of his presence at MSU! As we kick off the school year, I'd like to highlight the important role that MSU faculty and staff play in the formation of our students. Professors and staff members don't simply pass on knowledge and skills they inspire students to choose majors that become career paths. The classes they teach open minds to new cultures, scientific breakthroughs, arts and philosophies. They recognize potential in students and encourage them apply for scholarships, internships, grad school or connect to the job market. The impact that faculty and staff have on students often lasts a lifetime. We honor MSU's Faculty and Staff on Thursday, September 15 with a reception and talk on the Christian Art of Teaching by Dr. Dan Keating, an Associate Professor of Theology at Sacred Heart Major Seminary, 5:30-7:00pm. We look forward to meeting folks who are new to our campus and reconnecting with old friends. Don't miss it! Have a blessed week! The new officers for our East Lansing Knights of Columbus council fraternal year were installed recently. Thank you to Mark Meyer, Grand Knight, and the other officers for their service in our parish and beyond: Dante Centofanti, Larry Meyer, Rick Poljan, Art Weber, Russ Martin, Chuck Graff, Mike Wolsey, Paul Stevens, John Ingraham, Chuck Lewis and Alan Stuart. The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is a process of welcoming adults interested in becoming Catholic. This process happens year round in our parish. A new group seeking to learn about the Church is about to begin Tuesday, September 13, 7-9pm and Sunday, September 18, 2-4pm at St. John Church & Student Center. People choose a time best for them.

Keep the Monday, September 12th 5:30 – 7:00pm | SJSC Rooms 15-16 There is renewed interest in Christian Meditation. The practice has a long history sustained by the monastic tradition, beginning with Jesus when He said, "Go into your inner room, close the door, and pray to your Father Who is in secret."

The nursery is located on the west side of the building, and will be accessed through the Reconciliation Chapel. Beginning October 2, care will be offered between the Masses so that parents can attend the Adult Education program. At SJSC, childcare will be available in the downstairs Nursery during the 10:00am Mass. Nursery at SJSC also begins September 18. NEED CHILDCARE? OFFER CHILDCARE? There is a "Childcare Exchange" bulletin board in the vestibule outside the Chapel at STA. Feel free to put up a card requesting childcare or advertising your services. STA School News Our after care program, the Tartan Club, is looking for the following items for their program: Legos, blocks, cars, trucks and bean bag chairs. If you are able to donate these items, our program would greatly appreciate your support. Please drop donations off in the school office any time during the day and we will transfer them to the after care program. Thank you in advance for your kindness and generosity! Our universal mission as disciples of Christ is to lead lives of holiness. The individuals presented in Catholicism: The Pivotal Players, truly exemplify this holiness and manifest the presence of Christ to the world. Like Christ, the Pivotal Players each balanced both ordinary and extraordinary existence. Their virtues were elevated by divine grace, their human weakness overcome by bewildering strength. This series is a tribute to their transformative friendships with Christ. Bishop Robert Barron envisioned this series as a way to display the potential unleashed by the powerful friendship of Christ in the lives of his disciples. We will meet on Monday evenings, 7:00-8:30pm, in Fr. Mac Hall, beginning Monday, September 19. Come for any one night or come for the whole series! All are welcome. Questions? Contact Al Weilbaecher at 351-5460 or al@elcatholics.org. Parents’ Baptism Seminar Monday, September 12 Our next baptism preparation session for parents (and godparents) of infants or young children to be baptized will take place on Monday evening, September 12, 7:00-9:00pm at St. Thomas Aquinas Church.

We remember our beloved deceased, especially Jim 5 Theroux. SMALL THINGS PREPARATION FOR RECONCILIATION AND EUCHARIST: This year we are updating our model for Sacramental Preparation. In response to requests from parents we will be engaging parents more fully in their children's preparation for receiving the Sacraments. While the basic educational content will still be offered in the classroom, the most important aspects of the spiritual preparation will take place between parents and children. There will be fun sessions for parents and children to attend together as well as sessions for parents which will provide ideas and encouragement for sharing the GIFT of faith. YES! WE OFFER PRESCHOOL! We offer preschool and kindergarten Religious Education classes at each of our sessions! Our focus is on Jesus, as we help children understand who Jesus was and what He taught through lessons that relate to children's lives. We use story-telling, art, finger-play and other age-appropriate strategies to keep children engaged. During our Sunday evening session, we do something a little different: Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is a Montessori-based way of early-childhood religious education. Curriculum is hands-on and springs from Scripture and Liturgy. CGS is open to children from ages 4-7. We are fortunate to have Amy Schneider, a trained CGS catechist in our parish. The CGS is offered during the 4:30pm session on Sundays in our Atrium in the church building (same room as parish nursery). CATECHISTS NEEDED Recruiting catechists is one of the most rewarding experiences we have all year! We understand that the prospect of becoming a catechist can be intimidating. You may not be sure if you are qualified or capable of forming others in the faith. As a result, you may hesitate to volunteer or do so with a bit of reluctance, even dread! The reward for us is in knowing that the fear and reluctance will pass and our catechists will experience a wealth of unexpected blessings from this ministry! of the lesson. If you are considering the call to serve as a catechist, we hope you call one of us and talk to us about the possibilities. If someone you know is considering the call to serve as a catechist, pass our names and emails or phone numbers to them. Debbie Lewis dlewis@elcatholics.org 517-351-5460 Annie Kitching akitching@elcatholics.org 517-332-0064 MAGNIFIKID! subscriptions are waiting for you to pick up. At St. Thomas Aquinas you will find them in a box on the shelf in the hallway that runs behind the sacristy in the Church. At St. John they are in the office, just ask the "desk person." In both places they are in a box and each subscription has your name on a sticker on however many subscriptions you ordered. They are all in alphabetical order. ALPHA - This year we will be starting CALLED our Sunday CALLED sessions with the Alpha course. What is Alpha? Alpha is a series of interactive sessions where anyone can explore life and the Catholic faith in a friendly, open environment. Alpha was originally developed as a short course for people in the church, however it is a great way for non-Christians to experience the faith. One great thing about ALPHA is that we welcome teens to bring a friend—even if the friend is not Catholic. Alpha presents the reality of who Jesus is. As leaders our chief goal is to be real and authentic and this invites everyone present to be real themselves. Teens are welcome to ask questions, with no pressure to contribute or have the “right answer”. As we present Alpha (as well as all of our sessions this year), we are reliant on the Holy Spirit because we realize that it is only God who changes lives; we just introduce Him. No one can force anyone to believe anything. But, if teens can just be themselves, ask their questions, focus on building relationships and rely on the Holy Spirit, lives are changed. In December we will return to our regular Disciple program. CONFIRMATION - Any teen planning on being in this year's Confirmation program needs to go through the introductory interview by the end of this month. At STA/SJSC we are blessed with support for all our Since there are only so many appointments available in Catechists. Our lesson plans include an array of ideas the remaining weeks, we encourage you to sign up for that appeal to every learning style, and we don't just an interview time as soon as possible. We are now provide the ideas - we also provide all of the materials using an online scheduling program. Go to you need - everything from art activities (ready-to-go), elcatholics.org. Under "Sacraments" select word cards, games, dvd clips, storybooks and more. "Confirmation" and click on the blue button at the Your preparation each week is primarily reading over the lesson plan and familiarizing yourself with the flow 6 bottom right corner of your screen. Liturgical Training Dates Is the Spirit calling you to serve our community as an Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion or as a Lector (EMHC)? Training for these ministries is coming up. There are two components to training: The theological session and the practical. You only need come to one theological session if you would like to serve in both capacities. Practical sessions for each ministry are also required. You may be trained at either site and serve at either site. Ministry is reserved for St. Thomas/St. John registered parishioners and you must have received the sacrament of Confirmation. THEOLOGICAL SJSC Sun. Sept. 11 STA Mon.

Medical experts have said that sitting too much is the new smoking! So why not join our linen ministry so that you have something to do while watching TV at night! Besides, there is just something satisfying about ironing a piece of linen! The fabric responds so well to high heat - it snaps too perfectly! We are looking for a few more volunteers to help with the purificators used for Communion at St John Church and Student Center. It involves laundering and ironing a week's worth of white linen purificators (approx. 125150) on a rotating schedule 5 or 6 times per year.
