Questions of the Week. Use these questions to begin a discussion of the Sunday Gospel around the family table. Adults: How do you open your heart to what God wants for you? How do you follow the pathway that leads to happiness? Children: Is there something hard you need to do this week? What might make it easier?
Last Chance for Alternative Gift Giving Opportunities
If you haven’t already checked out the supply of Guatemala Crafts and Fair Trade coffee, tea and Chocolate, do it before it’s too late! We can also help you with

“You need courage to follow Christ, especially when you recognize that so much of our dominant culture is a culture of flight from God.”!! ~ St. Pope John Paul II
Beginning January 8, Café Catholicism will be doing the Alpha study at 10:0 a.m.-Noon on Thursdays. Join us! This is open to all adults.
Thank you to Kathy and John Heffernan for the article about Fair Trade Chocolate. Divine Chocolate, Equal Exchange and Theo Chocolate all received
an “A” on Green America’s Chocolate Scorecard. Thank you for making the change to Fair Trade. Your commitment to buying Fair Trade chocolate means
that your purchase does not support child labor in the cocoa industry. Sales support our youth ministry with a percentage of the profits going to our Guatemala
Mission. A new shipment just arrived this week. Fair Trade Coffee, Tea and chocolate make great – and just - stocking stuffers!

other churches in the University neighborhood in sponsoring a Yuletide Stroll. This event is free, sponsored by the Missoula Chapter of

coffee and Christmas cookies. Teddy Jo Bowers will be playing the organ and piano at Christ the King. The Jubilation Handbell Ringers will play at University Congrational Church. A carol sing, closing out the afternoon will take place at Holy Spirit from 5:10-5:30 PM. JOIN US for this celebration of the
