There are empty places in our church. Catholics who should be here with us—family members, neighbors, friends—have drifted away for one reason or another. It’s time to invite them to come home, not just for Christmas but for always. Our parish is joining all other parishes in the Archdiocese to get the word out through a series of Catholics Come Home TV spots that will be aired in prime time throughout our area. In two weeks, at all Masses on September 15 and 16, we will take up a special Catholics Come Home Collection to support this outreach. Please be generous, and help fill the empty spaces! To view sample TV spots, please visit www.catholicscomehome.org.
