Christmas Message from the Pastor
Christmas is our home
Because Jesus has made a home
In us—we remember the many gifts in our lives
With us—we reconnect with those who have loved and shaped us
Through us—we reconcile all that is broken or separated
Because we are at home
Through Jesus—we seek peace for a broken world
With Jesus—we serve as we are uniquely gifted and called
In Jesus—we are one
In our Christmas may the
Light of Christ be a beacon to lead all people home
Peace of Christ be our courage
Love of Christ be our hope for the world
A Christmas appeal in hard times.
As our nation continues to face difficult times, I make an appeal to you to do three things that will make our world a home for Christ:
Pray intentionally for the work of Saint Clement Parish and especially for the success of the Catholics Come Home Project;
Serve others in personally expanding ways;
Give generously to Saint Clement to help those in greatest need.
Thank you for making Saint Clement Church our home.
Fr. Ken Simpson
Pastor

Welcome Home to the Catholic Church
Take Another Look
On December 16, several major television stations will begin to air a series of commercials inviting Catholics who have drifted away from regular participation in the Church to take another look through the
Catholics Come Home program. It is estimated that the average TV viewer will see 13 to 20 of these commercials during the 5 ½ week campaign! All of us in the Catholic community will be called upon to play a role in this initiative, whether it is speaking to our experiences of the Catholic Church, getting involved in our welcoming efforts here at Saint Clement, or perhaps talking with someone who may be considering returning to the Catholic Church. We invite you to take time to view the commercials online and to consider lending a hand in our efforts here at Saint Clement.
