Photography Dates Added
If you haven’t had time to schedule your photo session for the pictorial, you still have time. Photos will be taken through February 6. Photos are taken in the Nursery, off the Parish Hall.
There is no cost to have your photographs taken, and you will receive a complimentary 8x10 portrait and directory. You will be able to view your images electronically immediately after the photographer takes the photo. At that time, you will have the opportunity to purchase additional portraits to share with family and friends. There is no obligation to purchase more photos and no pressure to do so.
Schedule your appointment online at www.kcnativity.org on our homepage or contact Susan Smith at 491.5017 or ssmith@kcnativity.org. We look forward to seeing you.
We still need volunteers to help check in parishioners at their appointments. Day, evening and Saturday shifts are still available. Please help make our directory possible. Please contact Susan Smith to sign-up.
Christ Renews His Parish Coming To
Nativity In March And April
“Christ Renews His Parish” is a spiritual renewal process which calls together the members of the parish – priests, religious, laity – in order to experience personal conversion and Christian community in the environment of their own parish.
It is completely oriented to the parish in order to give both the individual and the parish an opportunity for renewal and growth in the spiritual life. It is led by a team of laity properly formed in prayer and love and instructed in the content of the total process. It was developed in 1969 and has been experienced by hundreds of parishes across the country.
More information is available on Nativity’s website at www.kcnativity.org, just click on the link on the homepage. The Men’s Weekend is March 27 - 28; Women’s Weekend is April 10 - 11. Registration will begin on February 1, online or in person in the Parish Office.

A Table Set For All
Nativity has a retreat planned for all of our liturgical ministers this Saturday, January 30, from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at Church of the Nativity: Lectors * Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion * Ushers * Greeters * Sacristans * Art & Environment
Please plan to participate in this informative and enriching morning of reflection, prayer, commissioning and celebration. Our keynote speaker will be Father Paul Turner, noted speaker and writer on topics related to Catholic liturgy.
The morning will also include breakout sessions for individual ministries, a commissioning service for all liturgical ministers in the parish, and a special appreciation luncheon to say thank you to YOU for your service to the parish. Please let your ministry head know whether or not you will be able to attend.
All parishioners are invited to come for the keynote presentation. Fr. Paul Turner will speak at 9 a.m. on the coming changes in the Roman missal which will affect both the priest’s text and the assembly’s text at Mass. Please come if you can. If you are not a liturgical minister, call Karen in the parish office 491-5017 to register. There is no charge. |
