Free Tai Chi classes are meeting once again in the Parish Hall, with the new season beginning Monday, Sept. 10th at 10:30 a.m. This art is a moving meditation & fitness regimen developed to promote the flow of Chi (or energy in the body). The slow, flowing movements have been shown to offer numerous benefits to the quality of life, including decreases in stress & anxiety, improved circulation, & more. It is recommended by the National Institute of Health because they found that seniors took Tai Chi, fell 475 less than those who didn’t. When done wisely, it does no damage to the body & can help it keep working for as long as you need it. For more information or if you have any questions, call Lynne Pfannes at (248) 524-1951.

The Rosary Makers will resume their bi-monthly meeting on Tuesday, September 11, 2018 at 1:30 p.m. in the Social Hall. This is an activity you can do at home, and simply meet on the designated Tuesday to pick up supplies and return the rosaries you have completed. We always need more helpers as we spread the devotion of the Rosary to those who are anxious to receive it. Come attend our meeting on September 11th, and see if you would like to be a part of this devotion to Our Lady and the Rosary.

Please view the Ministries. An online form can be submitted or a hard copy form can be submitted to the Parish Office.

Monday, September 24th, 7:00 pm Most of the topics that we have discussed at Merlot With The Messiah have been brought up by fellow parishioners and we start our new season off with just such a topic. With the Church embracing social media, we have access to, and receive, a steady stream of communication. How does this compare with the traditional ways the Church communicates: Apostolic Constitutions, encyclicals, exhortations, addresses, letters, or the intimidating Papal Bull? What do they all mean? We, of limited time and attention, need to be able to quickly discern what is important and affects our faith as members of not just St Elizabeth Ann Seton but of the Body of Christ. Join us on the fourth Monday of each month and add some leaven to your faith. Let’s see how much more extraordinary you can be.

Bible Study on the Historical Books of 1&2 Samuel, 1&2 Kings, Ezra, Nehemiah and 1&2 Maccabees Join us for this 10 week bible study on the Historical books of 1&2 Samuel, 1&2 Kings, Ezra, Nehemiah, and 1&2 Maccabees. • 1&2 Samuel describes the transition from the age of Judges to the beginning of the monarchy in Israel, including the royal dynasty of King David. • 1&2 Kings details the last days of King David to the fall of Jerusalem and Israel’s exile because of their unfaithfulness to Yahweh. • Ezra and Nehemiah together explain the period of restoration and the reorganization of Jewish life. • 1&2 Maccabees describe how the Jews revolted against the Seleucid kings who were persecuting them during the 2nd century B.C. 2 Maccabees also contains teachings on the resurrection from the dead, intercession of the saints, and prayer for the dead. Together, these books frame about 1000 years of history. They anticipate and prepare for the coming of Jesus, the Son of David and the promised Messiah, who brings prophesy’s to fulfillment and holiness to perfection. Each week's lesson includes a reading from one of the historical books of the Old Testament, study questions, a group discussion and a summary lecture of each reading. Study Materials: The Bible alone will be used for this study. Cost: There is no charge to attend. Dates: TUESDAY evenings starting September 25 through December 4, 2018 Times: 7:00 – 8:30 PM Location: SEAS classroom #3 & 4 Join us as your schedule permits. To sign up, contact the parish office or Rob Pelliccia at 248-828-3539 or RJP@wowway.com

Senior Gathering: Our seniors will resume their meetings the last Wednesday of the month beginning September 26th in the Social Hall at 9:00 a.m. We will have a continental breakfast supplied by our members. This is a casual meeting of friendship, getting to know one another, and welcoming new members. Come to Mass at 8:30 a.m. and drop in for breakfast. It’s a good way to start your day!

As you are all aware, if you are a parishioner here at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton and wish to participate in one or more of our many volunteer positions you must first attend a “Protecting God’s Children” workshop and complete a Background Check if you have not already done so.

St. Elizabeth Ann Seton will be hosting a “Protecting God’s Children” workshop on Saturday, September 29, 2018 from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. in the Parish Hall. You must pre-register for this workshop. Registration is available online at www.virtusonline.org. Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact the parish office at (248) 879-1310.
