Thanksgiving Day Mass

We will celebrate Mass here at Seton at 9:00 a.m. on Thanksgiving Day, November 22nd.  Please join us in giving thanks.

Feast Day of the Immaculate Conception

Saturday, December 8th, is the feast of the Immaculate Conception, a holy day of obligation.  Because it is a Saturday, our Mass times for this feast day will be a little different.  We will have a Vigil Mass on Friday night at 7:00 p.m. and Saturday morning Masses at 8:00 and 10:00 a.m.

#iGiveCatholic

This year, Seton will participate in giving Tuesday. We are raising money to fix the drainage issues in the back of the school, commonly known as "lake Seton."  Giving back starts on November 12th - 27th and can be found at cincinnati.igivecatholic.org. Please consider donating to help us resolve the shallow lake that forms due to inadequate drainage. To donate directly, click the 'DONATE' button above or go to the IGiveCatholic site. All donations are greatly appreciated.

MagnifiKid Order Form

It is time to renew or choose to subscribe to the children's worship aide, MagnifiKid!  Perhaps you have seen it in the pew and wondered how to get a copy for your child or grandchild?  There are request forms in the narthex.  Please return by December 1st to the parish office or you can drop it into the collection basket.

Congratulations to our SASEAS School for being awarded the National Blue Ribbon Exemplary High Performing School in the United States by the United States Department of Education!!

Celebrations last week included an all school Mass at Seton with  Bishop Binze and a celebratory assembly with local dignitaries and community leaders was held in the Seton cafeteria. This National Blue Ribbon is considered the highest honor a public or nonpublic school can achieve!  Congratulations to the students and their families, faculty, staff and supports of our school.

Memorial Flowers

We are offering a new way to celebrate and honor deceased loved ones or special events such as anniversaries, birthdays, births or particular groups of people. Flowers for our weekend Masses and Holy Days of Obligation can be donated in memory, honor or thanksgiving of a loved one or a significant life event.  The Memorial Flower Donor and Intention will be listed in the parish bulletin.  The form needed to sign up is in the narthex of the church and at the parish office. 

To participate, please fill out the Memorial Flower Form (in the narthex or parish office).  Seal the payment and form in the Memorial Flower envelope that is attached to the form and place it in the offertory or bring it to the parish office.  Until the parish office processes your request you are not guaranteed that the date requested will be available.  You will be contacted with a confirmation.  Flower requests must be made at least two weeks before the requested date to ensure acknowledgment in the parish bulletin.

Covenant of Love with the Sacred Heart of Jesus ~ Act of Consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary

Are you interested in learning more about the Catholic Faith?

We welcome all who would be interested in learning more about the Catholic Faith, and maybe even becoming Catholic. The Catholic Church traces its beginnings to Jesus Christ. Our Lord gave us the Church, and through the Church, we have been given the Magisterium, the Sacraments, and the Bible, and so much more, all guided by the Holy Spirit. If you have any questions or would like to make an appointment to talk, call Patty Norris at 575 - 0119 or email her at pknorris@cinci.rr.com. You can also call Fr. Michael Cordier at 575-0119. May the Spirit help you ask a question and begin the most exciting journey of a lifetime.

A Novena for St. Andrew / St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish School

O Good and Gracious God,

We praise and thank you for the students in our parish school. It is a sacred privilege to continue the teaching mission of your son, Jesus. We hear his words in our hearts: “Let the children come to me! Do not hinder them.” Please listen to our prayers as we ask you, Lord, to remove whatever hinders parents from choosing our Catholic school for their children. Guide their thinking and their decisions. May parents see the great benefits of a Catholic education that can last a lifetime. Bless our efforts. Help us be a school for all. Lord we hold in prayer all the students you will send to our school. Thank you Lord for blessing us with a future filled with promise and hope. We ask this through the intercession of Mary our Blessed Mother, St. Andrew and St. Elizabeth Ann Seton. Amen.

Prayer by St. Elizabeth Ann Seton

Lord Jesus, Who was born for us in a stable, lived for us a life of pain and sorrow, and died for us upon a cross; say for us in the hour of death, Father, forgive, and to Your Mother, Behold your child. Say to us:  “This day you shall be with Me in paradise.”  Dear Savior, leave us not, forsake us not. We thirst for You, Fountain of Living Water. Our days pass quickly along, soon all will be consummated for us.  To Your hands we commend our spirits, now and forever.  Amen.

Vocation Minute ~ View this Video ~ Pope Francis:  Do you want to be a priest?

Please take a minute and offer a prayer (Our Father and Hail Mary) for vocations. Please pray that a man or woman from SEAS would accept the invitation to follow Christ as a diocesan priest or religious sister or nun. And pray for parishioner Matt Spotts who continues his formation to become a Jesuit priest.
