Coming Attractions in Your Local Parish: Help the Paulist Fathers Celebrate 150 Years of Service!

St. Augustine – Paulist Fathers 150th Anniversary
 
Disclaimer: Any reminders below of a favorite movie or TV show are purely intentional. 
 
 
From June 19-21, 2008, the originalMen in Black,” The Paulist Fathers, will convene in Washington D.C., to celebrate 150 years of “The Guiding Light” service that the Paulist religious order (Congregation of St. Paul), has provided to the Catholic Church, as missionaries to the United States.
 
Father John J. Geaney, CSP, affectionately called, “Father G” recently said to members of his faithful congregation, “I want to see “All My Children” from St. Augustine Catholic Church in Washington D.C. for this celebration.”
 
All parishioners—as well as St. Augustine alumni, friends and family of parishioners—should plan to attend the September 5, 2008, “Bold and Beautiful” banquet, because “The Price is Right!” That’s right…just “come on down!” The menu and the metropolitan Memphis event location—both of which will be revealed soon—will be fit for “The Saint.”
 
By the way, there’s another coming attraction on September 27, 2008, that you will not want to miss -- “Ma’Dear Goes to Alto, TN.” Though originally thought to be a “Mission Impossible,” the Paulist Fathers began their successful mission at the “Green Acres” of St. Margaret Mary Mission Church, in Alto, approximately 100 years ago. 
 
The overnight trip event to Alto, in East Tennessee, which includes lunch, breakfast, room and transportation by luxury bus, will leave St. Augustine at 6 a.m., Friday, September 26. We will arrive in Lebanon, Tennessee, about 12 noon and have the rest of the day to shop. We’ll spend the night in the Comfort Inn and leave for Winchester at 8 a.m. on Saturday, September 27. After an 11:30 Mass and picnic, the motor-coach will return to Memphis at 4 p.m.
 
The cost is only $89 pp - Quad Room or $110 pp - Double Room.  A $50 deposit is due to Laura’s Tours, LLC by May 30.  The balance of either $49 or $60 is due August 10. The deposit can be transferrable, but not refundable. There is an optional tour of the Hundred Oaks Castle, in Winchester, Tennessee, for $12. For more information about the tour, contact Laura Mayfield at 901.606.8345.
 
There will be a “Soul Food” picnic and Mass. Don’t be in “Jeopardy” of missing any of the Paulist Fathers’ 150th Anniversary celebrations. In the spirit of fellowship, the St. Patrick Catholic Church family—also a part of the Paulist mission in Memphis—and the St. Augustine Church family will journey together.  
Please stay tuned, as we will keep you informed on these and other upcoming events.

Note: These special movie and TV show events are NOT available on DVD.    
A Religious Order On a Mission to America: The Paulist Fathers!
