A Personal Note from Barb
I'll be taking some time off from now till about February and I will miss you dearly. I've been diagnosed with breast cancer, which is very prevalent in my family. We are all very proactive about screenings so we think we've caught it in the earliest stages and I have great hope for a smooth recover after the bilateral mastectomy later this week.
I am feeling very blessed not only because it was found so early but because there are so many inspiring, generous people who have stepped forward to ensure that ministry to, with, by and for young people doesn't even miss a beat here at St Pius Tenth!
Sunday Youth Nites will go forward just as planned with the great team of adult leaders sharing the load of gathering, teaching young people and going forth into the community. Our already robust CYO Program is already on a roll and will go on without even a hiccup and you should even be able to continue to get this newsletter because of wonderful folks who have said YES.
Does it go without saying that I will be counting on your prayers and good wishes to help me through this challenge? If you'd like to keep up the ins and outs of my situation here's a website that my daughter, Rachael will be maintaining. with https://www.caringbridge.org/visit/barblegere
Please do pray for me as I will be praying for you too!

NCYC FUNDRAISER AND MEETING SCHEDULE
Take Stock in our Youth!
Would you like to help our NCYC pilgrims with their trip to Indianapolis in November? If so, we will be inviting you to purchase stock in our youth after Masses the weekend of February 9th and 10th. How does this work you ask? Well, you make a monetary donation and we give you a stock certificate and a brochure that has information and pictures of the pilgrims that you will be supporting. The stock certificate comes with the following:
· Prayers offered specifically for you, each night at our prayer and share while we are at the conference.
· An opportunity to attend a stockholders gathering when we return to hear about how your investment has helped our young pilgrims with their faith life and their relationship with God.
Anyone and any dollar amount can purchase stock. We hope you will be able to help the pilgrims and chaperones as they journey to NCYC 2019.
