There will be an extraordinary form Baptism on Sunday, September 8 at 4 pm before a Low Mass at Saint Bonaventure Church in Marceline, MO.  Father Kevin Drew from Trenton, MO in the Kansas City/Saint Joseph Diocese has once again agreed to be celebrant.  Rosary will be prayed 20 minutes prior, and a reception will follow in the Catholic School.

From Father Dylan Schrader, priest at Saint Brendan's in Mexico, MO, and Diocesan Delegate for the Extraordinary Form, passed on the following news from his area: "I am pleased to announce that beginning in October, the noon extraordinary form Mass at St. Brendan in Mexico will be every Sunday! St. Brendan parish will also be having community and faith-formation opportunities from around 10:00am to 11:45am on Sundays, and I would encourage you to take advantage of these. As we get going, the full schedule will be posted at St. Brendan. It is important for the long-term success of our extraordinary form community that we continue to grow, to get to know each other, to invite others, and to stay connected with our fellow parishioners."

Next mass at Saint Rose in Novinger will be September 22.  As always, this will be preceded by Rosary and followed by a reception.
