The Arlington Midwest exhibit visits Marywood.  
We are no longer looking for volunteers.  
WE ENCOURAGE EVERYONE TO GO AND SEE IT 
AND TELL OTHERS ABOUT IT.


Publicity ideas:
Event fliers to stuff bulletins: Since most parishes cannot print 
our material in their bulletins, we could produce inserts and 
offer to stuff their bulletins for them.  These inserts would have 
information about multiple events and programs.
Piggy-back on life issues: October is Respect Life Month (USCCB)  
We could use this as an opportunity to join the life conversation.


Prayer opportunities:
This Monday, 8 September, 7:30 p.m.:
Ecumenical Prayer for Peace (TaizĂ© style)
at St. Mary's in Grand Rapids, 423 First St. NW
(Second Monday of every month)

This Thursday, 11 September (and every Thursday), 6:30-6:55 p.m.:
Evening Prayer (Paulist Vespers) with open reflection and petitions
at St. Andrew's Cathedral in Grand Rapids, 
265 Sheldon Blvd. SE, St. Ambrose Chapel


Pax Christi tecum
