St. Jude's Parish Community is going to the Holy Land from October 21st, to November 1st, 2000.     We leave one week after the Oktoberfest.     

Cost:  $2,170.00 net price per person in a double room.    $455.00 supplement for a single room.    Price includes round trip air-fare to Holy Land; arrival and departure transfers; two meals daily (breakfast and table d'hote dinner); farewell dinner party with wine, soft drinks, coffee and tea;  porterage at airport;   land transportation and guide;   entrance fees to all sites;   daily Mass at different Holy land shrines;   12 days of pilgrimage and over night stays in first class hotels. .    To date, 36 people have signed-up and have paid their deposit.    The trip is limited to 40 people, plus Fr. Bill and Brother Dann Corona, S.J.

Brochures are available in the Parish Pastoral Office for more information or to register for this Pilgrimage to Holy Land.     

NB:    For those who would like to visit Cairo and Luxor, there is a Side Trip for 8 days (3 days in hotel in Cairo, 4 days on ship on Nile, and last night in Cairo before returning) for an additional $1,500.00 or less depending upon how many wish to go.   To date five (5) have signed up for this portion of the trip.   As the number rises the cost falls.

CARE-GIVERS
"Respite & Renewal"


"Respite & Renewal" is a wonderful program designed to offer Care-Givers support.

We all become a Care Giver at some time during our lives.    When we become a parent of an emotionally and/or physically disabled child; or we have elderly parents or relatives to care for;   or we are involved in many bereavement or detention or other ministries that drain us even as we serve.   From time to time we need a
"Respite" and we need to be "Renewed".     

This group meets every other Sunday afternoon in Rooms 3 & 4 of the Parish Hall from 1:15 to 3:00 p.m.     Next gathering will be on Sunday afternoon May 6th.     No dues!     No fees!     Just sharing and support and love.     

For more information, please contact Margaret Pontius
Evenings Only at 818 - 706 - 1842.

BIBLE STUDY - Sunday to Sunday


Please come join us in preparing for next Sunday's Mass.     We meet to learn about and discuss the Readings for the upcoming Sunday Liturgy.    Each week we watch a 20 minute video, stopping the tape at appropriate moments to discuss the material presented.   We enjoy lively conversation, faith sharing moments, and good Christian fellowship, as we learn more about the Bible and thereby enable ourselves to be more fully prepared to celebrate next Sunday's Mass.

Tuesday mornings 9:00 to 10:00 a.m. in Room 7.       This week we will do the
"Third Sunday of Easter" (B)."    All are welcome!   Come prepare for next Sunday's Mass!   No preparation!     No homework!
