From Fr. Steve….. St. André’s Parish Fall Sale features many
items from the Recto-ry have been found. We have too much stuff
that we would nev-er, in a million years, use and we had no place
to store it until the next garage sale. I am pleased to announce
that Catholic Charities will be leasing the former site of the
Frassati House (St. John Bosco Rectory) as they are expanding their
services here in the Malone. They will also be assisting us in
operating the Good Samaritan Food Pantry, and in the near future
they will begin operating a Soup Kitchen at the St. John Bosco
Social Hall 3-days a week (Monday, Wednes-day, and Friday) from
3:00PM to 6:00PM. St. André’s Parish and Catholic Charities will be
working collaboratively in an effort to meet the needs of the
people on Malone. I am pleased that so many parishioners actively
volunteer in the Good Samaritan Food Pantry and at the St. Vincent
de Paul Thrift Store, which also helps support the Food Pantry.
Inspiring and informative video programs, talks, movies, and
eBooks, by some of Amer-ica’s best Catholic teachers, are now

ANDRÉ’S BROTHERS - ALL MEN WELCOME
André’s Brothers will gather once again on Tuesday evenings for
prayer, study and fellowship. We will be watching “The Wild Goose”,
a video series on discovering a deeper relationship with the Holy
Spirit. The Wild Goose was a term that the ancient Celts had for
the Holy Spirit. Apart from the Wild Goose there is no life. This
series is an invitation to join Fr. Dave Pivonka, TOR (current
president of Franciscan University) on a journey led by the Holy
Spirit. The Holy Spirit desires to be present to us in a manner
that brings light out of darkness, freedom out of bondage, order
out of chaos and life out of death. The meetings will begin with
Vespers at 6:30 PM (please note the change in time) in Notre Dame
Church, followed by the video and discussion in the Parish Center.
Our first gathering will be on Tuesday, September 17, followed by
meetings on Sept. 24, Oct. 1, Oct. 15, Oct. 22, Oct. 29 and Nov. 5.
Please join us for any or all of the sessions.

"There are three kinds of giving: grudge giving says, I have to;
duty giving says, I ought to; thanksgiving says, I want to. The
first comes from constraint; the second from a sense of obligation;
the third from a full heart." Rev. Robert Rodenmayer
