GREETINGS FROM FR. BILL Proposition
2: Tuesday,
August 24th
is primary election day in Alaska. In addition
to voting for various candidates, there is an important proposition on the ballot that I
would
urge you to vote for. If passed, Proposition 2
would require underage girls to notify their parents before obtaining an abortion. When a young girl discovers shes pregnant, it
is essential for her psychic and physical health, as well as the health of her unborn
child, that she receive counsel and support from people who care for her. Abortionists cannot offer unbiased advice. They have a conflict of interest since their
business and their income come from performing abortions.
Please vote in support of Proposition 2.
If you need a ride to your polling place, please call the parish office and
we will arrange a ride for you. You can also
vote early if you will not be available on August 24th. Our
Lady of the Valley School: Our
first day of classes at OLV will be this Wednesday, August 18th. We have a record number of students this year but
enrollment is ongoing. If you have a child in
grades K 8 consider giving them the gift of a Catholic education. You can call the school at 376-0883 to get
information or schedule an appointment. Second
collection on August 22nd:
Next
weekend we will take up our bi-annual second collection for the support of Our Lady of the
Valley Catholic School. We are all responsible
for sharing our faith with the next generation of young Catholics and there is no better
way to do that than supporting our Catholic schools. Please
be as generous as you can in support of OLV. Registration
for Religious Education Classes: Registration
materials for all grades from nursery through confirmation will be available this weekend
and next. If you wish, please take the packet
home this weekend and return it next weekend when you come to Mass. Val Lindeman and Julie DeKreon will be available
next weekend after all Masses to help with registration and to answer any questions you
may have. Bishops
Attic Needs Help: If
you have a few extra hours you would like to spend helping out our parish, please consider
volunteering at the Bishops Attic. All
of the proceeds from the Attics sales is divided among our Catholic parishes here in
the Valley and some other non-profit organizations. If
youre interested, please call Bishops Attic at 745-4215. Parish
