Women's Fall Bible Study

SEPT 10 - OCT 29  |  7:00 – 8:30 p.m.  |  PLC

Following Christ takes more than simply believing in him or doing what he asks of us. Jesus wants you to be more than just a believer—he wants you to be his disciple and friend. Follow Me: Meeting Jesus in the Gospel of John is your guide to a personal encounter with Christ. As the Good Shepherd, Jesus seeks us. He comes to meet us and beckons us to follow him. He calls us to be his disciples, to trust him, to open ourselves to his merciful love, and to love others as he has loved us. Follow Me invites you to experience the joy of a renewed friendship with Christ. In this study you will learn what it takes to follow Christ and discover the joy of divine friendship. You will see how God, and only God, can satisfy the deepest desires of your heart.

This eight-week study begins on Tuesday, September 10 from 7:00 – 8:30 p.m.  in the Parish Life Center.

Please RSVP no later than August 2 to Debbie Shearn at dkshea01@hotmail.com

PREP Registration

PREP is the religious education program here at St. Albert for children in grades K-8 who do not attend St. Albert the Great School.  It is a great opportunity for children to learn about their Catholic faith and grow in their relationship with God. PREP students in sacramental grades receive preparation as part of their PREP classes, along with some additional activities.  Registration for PREP Academic year 2024-25 is now open. Here is a link for the registration form:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Zn77Wfx4WUFRQmWU0831LXcDf2ohw12sHzX5c8rbR3M/edit

Those who were in the PREP program last year are encouraged to turn in their registration forms for this year.  We welcome and encourage new families to the PREP program!

PREP Assistant Needed

The PREP program is in need of an 8th grade assistant.  This person would be a support and help to the 8th grade catechists as they help the students grow in their faith and prepare for the sacrament of Confirmation.  It is a joyful, inspiring and enriching experience seeing the young people grow!

If you have any questions about the PREP program, or if we can be of any assistance, please contact Sr. Sarah at syungwirth@stalbert.org

Baptism 

Does your child need the Sacrament of Baptism?  Our next Baptism Service is scheduled for Sunday, July 14th during the 10:30am Mass, with Parent Preparation Class on Thursday, July 11th at 6:30 pm; or Sunday, August 18th at 12:00pm, with Parent Preparation Class on Thursday, August 8th at 6:30 pm.

GREAT Job St Albert!

What a great job everyone did with recycling at this year’s summer picnic! Over the 3 days, we accumulated 60 bags of recyclables in varying amounts. Once it was all sorted and separated out, we had 15 huge bags of aluminum cans and 13 huge bags of plastic bottles and cups – bags so big that they’d even make Santa Claus jealous! In addition, we collected a dumpster full of cardboard and a whole bunch of aluminum food pans. On top of that, we rinsed, dried and will reuse most of those plastic bags. It was a wonderful follow up of what our parish did with recycling at our Lenten fish fries. Once again, Thank You to everyone who recycled at the picnic! You are making a difference, and it is a positive one! Thanks!
