HOMEBOUND MINISTRIES: VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!
The All Saints & St. Vincent Ferrer Homebound
Communion Ministry serves Communion to
parishioners at their homes and various health care &
senior living facilities. We currently have a critical need for
ministers at Brookdale (across from Moeller) and Kenwood
Terrace.
If you are not already an Extraordinary Minister of Holy
Communion (EMOHC), we will train you. Contact Karen
information.
Please join Fr. Tom for a small group study on how to
understand, live and share your Catholic faith, here in our
Family of Parishes. We will study a classic work of
Catholic evangelization, The Soul of the Apostolate, by
Jean-Baptiste Chautard. There will be four sessions
available, starting on July 31
st
, at 7 p.m. at St. Vincent
Ferrer’s Jaspers Room. We will take off for the Vigil of
the Assumption on Wednesday, August
14 and conclude our sessions on
August 28th. No commitment is neces-
sary, only that you will be open to the
Holy Spirit. Please join us! If you have
any questions, please reach out to Fr.
Tom at father@svfchurch.org or scan

EVANGELIZATION GROUP STUDY
INTERESTED IN BECOMING CATHOLIC?...
Please join us for a “come and see” meeting about the
RCIA (“Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults”*) on
Wednesday September 11, 2024, at 7:00 pm in St.
Vincent Ferrer’s Jaspers Room. Weekly sessions begin
on September 18
th
and continue for nine months.
To learn more about this important adult faith formation pro-
cess, please email Fr Tom father@svfchurch.org, or call
Carolyn Caperton at 513-792-4601.
*The RCIA is changing names later this year in 2024 and
will now be known as the “Order of Christian Initiation of
Adults”, or OCIA. Among other
things, this new OCIA ritual book
broadens the name to include the
entire spiritual process, and
reflects that the Catholic journey
is a continual, lifelong
commitment. The Archdiocese
website notes that “First use [of
the ritual book] is possible on
December 1, 2024, and the
National Statutes will take
effect. Use of this ritual book is
mandatory beginning Ash Wednesday, March 5, 2025.”

OCIA/RCIA, you can go to:
