Nicaraguan Mission
 Items Needed for Nicaragua Auction
on September 18!
In past years, parishioners have generously donated items such as tickets to the Muny, etc. to the Nicaragua Auction. Since the Auction will be in held September this year, summer events are not as easily donated as winter events. Surely, some of you have tickets to the Cardinals (fall games), Blues, Rams, or Billikens games, or tickets to the Rep, the Symphony, CASA, The Bach Society, the FOX, the Sheldon, or other arts or entertainment events that you would be willing to donate to a good cause and for a tax deduction. If so, contact Larry Butterfield, Auction Co-Chair at: lbutter@hotmail.com or 314.570.4684 or WSMM Chairman Carroll Stribling at: carroll.stribling@gmail.com or 314.956.5973.
'Check out' at the Carolina de Sirker School Library
 Books have been unpacked from the 2nd suitcases to Nicaragua. Thanks to the generosity of parishioners at CSMSG and Good Shepherd, missioners are stocking the library shelves. Many reading adventures await to be checked out by the children at the Carolina de Sirker School. Muchas gracias to Mary Pier and her book team!

We need folks who will help with cooking, set-up, and serving breakfast from 6:15 AM to about 8:15 AM. We are also looking for volunteers to establish dishwashing crews for each Sunday from 7:30 AM to about 8:25 AM.
