| | I Say Yes Lord! – Opportunities for Adult Involvement in Faith Formation Ministries
Let this be the year you say "YES!" to growing in your own faith while helping the children and youth of Pax Christi experience God. We are looking for energetic, faith-filled adults to mentor our children and youth throughout this year. We especially need people who can make a weekly commitment to help with our Sunday or Wednesday evening programs (6:30-8:00pm). Additional time outside of the sessions is needed for planning and training. Participants must complete Virtus training, background check, and Code of Conduct as required by the Archdiocese. Childcare is available during sessions for all volunteers; faith formation tuition is waived for full time volunteers. Sign up forms are available on the website.

Card Players Wanted!
Do you play cards? Do you want to learn how to play cards? If so, the Pax Christi 500 Club needs you! Once a month from September to April, Club members meet in each others' homes and play the easy-to-learn, challenging-to-master game of 500. Regular players pay a small fee and host cards twice yearly, and substitute players can join for free to play in place of regulars whose schedules conflict. Warm-Up Night is Saturday, September 11, 2010 at 6:00pm. Contact Charlie Severson, 612-384-8105, or csever82@gmail.com, for more information!
Annual Parish Disclosure Form
As part of the Archdiocesan Planning Process, the Archdiocese requested that all parishes make an annual disclosure to their members. The Archdiocese wants to make sure all parishes are transparent to their members regarding the parish finances. The information contained in this year's disclosure has already been disseminated to our members in our annual report published in the bulletin dated October 4, 2009. Therefore, the Archdiocesan Planning Office is satisfied that Pax Christi has already fulfilled this requirement. A copy of our annual report is available anytime by contacting Anne Swenson, aswenson@paxchristi.com, or by calling the parish office.
