Letter from Vermont Right to Life Committee:

 

Dear Fr. Corley:

 

Please accept my sincerest thanks for hosting the Vermont Right to Life Baby Bootie Campaign in your churches in June. It is gratifying to witness the outpouring of support for the effort to restore respect for human life here in our state. I hope you will extend our gratitude to your parishioners at St. Peter’s Church and St. Dominic’s Church who so generously contributed to our fundraiser. Please also give a special thanks to Linda for volunteering to coordinate the project. Vermont Right to Life received $656.65 from St. Peter’s Church and $158.69 from St. Dominic’s Church, for a total of $815.34 in contributions!  With the funds, VRLC will make new purchases of educational materials and other resources to reach out to Vermonters – all of which will be put to the best possible use. Most immediately, materials will be provided to those pro-life volunteers who use the local county fairs as an opportunity to change hearts and minds and help them to recognize the humanity of the unborn. May God bless you and your parishioners for the generosity and prayers.

 

For life itself,

 

Mary Hahn Beerworth

Executive Director

 

 

He summoned the crowd again and said to them, "Hear me, all of you, and understand. Nothing that enters one from outside can defile that person; but the things that come out from within are what defile." - Mk 7:14-15

 

RCIA PROGRAM

FOR BELIEVERS AND WOULD-BE BELIEVERS

 

The RCIA process is designed to help persons in one or more of the following groups:

  • Catholics who want to deepen their understanding of their Faith.
  • Adult Catholics preparing for 1st Communion and Confirmation.
  • Returning Catholics.
  • Non-Catholics who want to learn more about Catholic Christianity.
  • Non-Catholics who want to become a member of the Catholic Church.

 

RCIA is the process of learning and living the message of Jesus as revealed in the Scriptures and in Catholic tradition. The program explores the teachings, practices, and history of the Catholic Church – so that each person involved in the process comes to enjoy a fuller, richer understanding of God and his/her relationship to God and community. For enrollment or for more information, please contact Fr. Ted at 775-1994.
