Prayer Requests, Other Business, Etc.

What a great class today!!  We had several prayer requests today:  

• We need to continue to pray for Stephanie, Dale, Patsy Cole (who's cancer has spread to her brain) and all those who battle with cancer
• Also, Mary Ann's great granddaughter is hoping to get a cornea transplant and is in the hospital
• Also remember the family of Cara Allen who passed away recently
• Geni & Wayne wanted to send a prayer of thanks for their son who passed his tests and is now a paramedic (yay!)
• Finally, I ask that you remember all the high school and college graduates who are having commencement exercises and starting a new life.  Many schools have already had graduation; Chester County's is tomorrow night.  So, please remember these students as they begin a new part of their lives.

We didn't have much business today, but we want to remember that we are going to sponsor a child to send to the Area Relief Ministries Camp this summer.  It costs $200 and Patsy will be getting us more information soon.  Also, next week remember to bring money to help buy the bedspreads for the sisters' new convent.  Each bedspread costs $80 (they need 9) and each Sunday school class is hoping to pitch in to help them buy these.  Finally, lets try to be thinking of what we can do this summer to keep meeting even though the school will be closed.  James Allison recommended meeting a different houses and that is a great idea.  If Sunday morning is too hard to do something like that because of interfering with Mass, maybe we could try Sunday afternoon or even a day or evening during the week.  Another thing I thought of was to maybe have a cookout either at someone's house or if everyone was willing to drive to Henderson, we might be able to use the big pavilion at Chickasaw, too.  It is something to think about, so let me know if you have any other ideas.

I hope you all have a great week and I'll see you Sunday!
