KENNYWOOD TRIP UPDATE! (June 12th)
I am pleased to announce that the bus to Kennywood has
been completely filled. If any other altar server wishes to
attend, I will be more than happy to buy your ticket, but
you would have to arrange your own transportation. We
will be contacting you over the next couple of weeks to
arrange payment. You can either bring it by the
St. Anthony Office between the hours of 9 a.m.—2 p.m.
weekdays, or leave it in the collection basket marked to
our attention. Let’s pray for nice weather! —Fr. John
For May 22-23, 2010 A Family Perspective by
Bud Ozar
We know parents are given the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Could it be you are the Advocate mentioned in today’s
gospel; the Advocate who will teach and remind your
children of all I told you? Christian parents are meant to
be instruments of the Spirit to their children.

Homebound Helpers Needed! Ever since the very first
day I arrived here, I have wanted to establish a
Lay Person Homebound Visitation program. That is, I am
looking for volunteers to bring Communion on (at least) a
monthly basis to our parishioners who are Homebound.
Now that the Deacon is here, he is going to help me estab-
lish this program. Not counting the nursing homes, I have
on my list 12 shut-ins for Holy Spirit and 6 shut-ins for
St. Anthony. The following people from both parishes
have expressed an interest: Jane Bonasso, John White,
Joe Meluzio, Sandra Costello and Mike Nunan. If anyone
else is interested, please call the office. The more volun-
teers that we have, the more our Homebound people that
we can see. If you know someone who needs to be added
to my list, please contact the office.—Fr. John

Disaster Relief Mission Trip Planned: Another Ecu-
menical Disaster Relief Work Team Mission Trip is
planned for June 28-July 3. In light of the recent flood
disaster in Southern WV, the group will be travelilng to
work in the Mingo/Wyoming counties. Over a thousand
homes were impacted in this isolated area of the state. At
this reconstruction where this is feasible. The group will
be focused upon the reconstruction.
As in past the team will be open to all people of faith
from the area who wish to participate. The trip is planned
in cooperation with the Greater Fairmont Area Council of
Churches (GFCOC) and its member churches. One does
not have to be affiliated with a member congregation of

and those between the ages of 14-18 must be accompa-
nied by an adult. Each participant will need to be in good
health and have a recent tetanus shot. The fee for each
participant will be $75 and we encourage those wishing to
participate to petition their local congregation for assis-
tance in meeting the cost if necessary. This fee will help
cover transportation, food, and lodging for the duration of
the trip. Those interested in coming for part of the week
are welcome and the fee will be prorated, but they must
arrange their own transportation. The group will be work-
ing Monday, June 29—Friday, July 3 and returning late
Friday night.
The needs of the group are as follows:
1) Participants for the cooperative work teams-skilled
and unskilled needed.
2) Monetary donations to purchase materials (Goal of
$5000)
3) Prayers of the community to help support the work
team’s mission.
Encountering God’s Grace in the Midst of Suffering
will be the theme for our trip and a topic for reflection
and discussion during the week.

mission trip can contact Deacon David Lester at 363-7434
