FR. FALL FEST WWW.SAINTCECILIA.ORG/FR-FALLFEST

This year, Fr. Fall Fest will celebrate at home with your family. In order to be able to spend quality time with each family, Fr. Fall Fest had to “convert” himself virtually. He is hanging out on the Saint Cecilia website waiting for you to bring him to life! Simply visit www.SaintCecilia.org/Fr-Fallfest, print him off, cut him out, and include him in your family activities. Fr. Fall Fest loves all sorts of activities like game nights, bike rides, karaoke, family celebrations (hint: his birthday is Fall Fest weekend), and anywhere your imagination will take you.

Be sure to take pictures with Fr. Fall Fest and submit them online at www.saintcecilia.org/fr-fallfest un-der the Fall Fest 2020 tab by September 25th. A video montage will be created from the submissions and uploaded on October 3rd. Your submission gives consent to St. Cecilia Catholic Church to use photos of you and your family (including minors) for the Fall Fest video. Have fun creating Fall Fest memories!

MAM NEEDS HELP https://www.signupgenius.com/go/5080B45A4A92EA7F85-fall1

The Resale Store and warehouse are very short on volunteers. Volunteers are urgently needed to sort and tag merchan-dise, stock shelves and racks, and assist with sales. The Resale Store was closed for many months, resulting in a serious loss of revenue to fund client programs. Now they are open and continue to see customers. As uncertain as these times are, many are having to cut costs and turn to MAM for their shopping needs. The store’s continued viability is vital to MAM’s ability to keep helping families in need. You can help! MAM is asking St. Cecilia volunteers for ONE THREE-HOUR SHIFT between now and the end of the year on these days and times:

• Thursdays, 5:00 to 8:00 p.m. • Saturdays, 9:00 a.m. to noon • Saturdays, 1:00 to 4:00 p.m.

MAM is following all safety protocols. Volunteers may request to limit their service to areas not frequented by the public. A signup link and calendar is provided above. Gather a few friends, pick your date and volunteer! If you have any ques-tions, email Stephanie Tippitt at stippitt@mamhouston.org.

MAGNIFICAT: THE CANTICLE OF MARYwww.SaintCecilia.org/MorningsofReflection

Saturday, October 24th from 8:30 am - 1:30 pm

Please join us for a live, virtual morning of reflection led by Lupe Arellano Schaefer During this retreat, Lupe will lead us in live reflections via Zoom. In between the presentations, you will have quiet times for creative journaling.

Participants will receive their own kit of supplies, to be picked up from the parish ahead of time. Lupe Schaefer, artist and mother of five very talented young adults, who are also some astounding artists, recently began hosting and teaching a Bible Study and creative art journaling in her home. Through her unique study that combines God's Word with our own innate desire to create like Him, the Message is truly internalized and begins to bloom in our hearts. No artistic abilities needed—God will provide! The cost is $20.
