at St Pius Tenth

7:30 AM

9:30 AM with St Pius School

These 17 Pilgrims will be attending the National Catholic Youth Conference November 20-24 in Indianapolis IN. They have spent the past year planning and preparing spiritually as well as financially and on November 1st and 2nd they will spend 24 hours on Retreat with the Pilgrims from the Southeast Rochester Catholic Community. Please keep them in your thoughts & prayers!

All of the NCYC general sessions, including the closing liturgy, will be streamed live via the NCYC website (www.ncyc.info). This is a great way for family and friends who cannot be present to see you minister to 25,000 of your peers at NCYC.

Streaming will begin at approximately 7:00 pm on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday evenings and at approximately 9:00 am on Friday and Saturday mornings.

The Hands of Christ is a recognition program from the Diocese of Rochester to assist parishes in affirming their high school seniors who have been the “Hands of Christ” in their church, home, school and community. Recognized seniors will receive a plaque from the Most Reverend Bishop Salvatore R. Matano at one of three special Recognition Ceremonies to be held in February 2019. This year St Pius Tenth Church is honored to host one of these Recognition Ceremonies.

The Criteria to receive this very special recognition: Is currently a high school senior * Has consistently demonstrated a Christian attitude by word and example * Has been actively involved in the parish as well as their school or community * Has been a positive role model to their peers, younger children and adults * Is a practicing Roman Catholic in a parish in the Diocese of Rochester and attends Mass.

The Nomination Process: Any one can nominate a HS Senior. If you’d like to nominate someone print out the form on the Hands of Christ page on the parish website: saintpiustenth.org and return it to Barb (barb.legere@dor.org) by November 15th. The Parish Staff reviews all nominations and puts forward those nominated to the Diocese. Those who are selected will receive a letter from the Pastor & Youth Ministry Director inviting them to participate in the Diocesan Hands of Christ Ceremonies and in our Parish Celebration.

The St Pius X teens are invited to come to the Parish Center on Veterans Day, MONDAY Nov 11th from 9 AM to 1 PM to make apple pies to give as a Thank You to a Veteran. If you are coming for the whole day please bring a brown bag lunch. Drinks will be provided.

Each teen is asked to bring 2 pre-made pie crusts & 3. 5 lbs of pie apples. We’ll supply the sugar, spices, & foil pie pans. We’ll work together to make/bake the pies to thank Veterans for their service. Adult helpers are needed and appreciated!
