SJA Men's Club update

Men of the Parish:

Thanks to all who attended our recent meeting at the Pawn Shop Pub! We had a lot of great conversation and feedback regarding upcoming events for the club this Fall.

Men's Club Basketball night will begin again on Sunday, October 18th, from 8 - 10 pm, and will meet every Sunday evening thereafter through the Spring;
An Advent Prayer Breakfast for the men of the Parish has been scheduled for Saturday, December 5th at 8 am. We will begin with Mass, followed by breakfast. Afterward, Father Guy will speak to us about our roles as men as witnessed by Joseph, John the Baptist and Zechariah;
30 Men's Club logo golf shirts are also on order, so we can begin wearing them at various SJA events and activities. Please let me know what size you would like. We are initially paying for the first order out of our current treasury balance, but will supplement with occasional fund-raising efforts as they present themselves.
Regarding fundraisers, we agreed to assist the athletic commission with their 2nd Annual Cornhole Tournament tentatively scheduled for October 10th to benefit the school athletics' programs. An organizational meeting has been scheduled for 7:30 pm on Wednesday, September 16th, at the Pawn Shop Pub;
The Indiana Catholic Men's Conference is Saturday, October 17th, at the Indiana Convention Center. See the following website for more details - http://www.mariancenterofindianapolis.com/mensconference/, and please contact Joe Rivelli at joemrivelli@sbcglobal.net to register if you are interested. I've personally attended the last three years, and it was definitely worth my while;
Mary Anne Schaefer has asked the Men's Club for volunteers to help out with a Health Fair that SJA is sponsoring on Sunday, 10/18. Her e-mail is mschaefer123@indy.rr.com if you are available.

The next general interest meeting will be at 8 pm, on Thursday, September 24th, at Moe and Johnny's.

October is another busy month! It was goo to see everyone at French Market last Saturday as well!

Peace,
Barry
