  • Download PDF Version available for use with email and print distribution.

To: Pastors, parish administration and bulletin editors
From: Francesca Lupinetti, programs and support services marketing specialist, Office of Mission Advancement

The following are pulpit/bulletin announcements for the November 8-9 Second Collection for the Archdiocesan Seminarians. Please encourage your parishioners to be generous!  

Bulletin Announcement for November 1-2:
As Pope John Paul II said, “The responsibility for the seminary belongs to the entire Christian community.” We are blessed in this archdiocese with more than 50 men responding to a call for priestly service to the people of God in the Archdiocese of Atlanta. Though this generous gift of God is a blessing for this archdiocese, it does pose a challenge to us. These men need both our financial support and our prayers. Please provide a sound future for the seminarians here in the Archdiocese of Atlanta by giving generously to the archdiocesan seminarians’ collection next weekend.  

Thank you for your continued support and generosity. For more information, visit lifeofthechurch.com/donate.  

Pulpit Announcement for November 8-9:
Our second collection today is for the seminarians of the Archdiocese of Atlanta.  We have been blessed with many vocations to the priesthood, and your prayers and generous gifts today support more than 50 men who are now preparing for future priestly service in north and central Georgia.  

For more information, visit lifeofthechurch.com/donate.

Prayer of the Faithful:
For all young men of our parish who are making lifetime choices at this time that will include service to the People of God as a priest, among their other options, we pray to the LORD. 


Spanish:  

Semana previa a la colecta, 1 y 2 de noviembre
Como dijo el Papa San Juan Pablo II: «La responsabilidad del seminario pertenece a toda la comunidad cristiana». En la Arquidiócesis de Atlanta, tenemos la bendición de contar con más de 50 hombres que han respondido al llamado a servir al pueblo de Dios como sacerdotes. Si bien este generoso don de Dios es una bendición, también representa un desafío. Estos hombres necesitan tanto de nuestro apoyo financiero como de nuestras oraciones. Por favor, ayúdennos a asegurar un futuro sólido para los seminaristas de la Arquidiócesis de Atlanta donando generosamente a la colecta para los seminaristas arquidiocesanos el próximo fin de semana. Gracias por su continuo apoyo y generosidad. Para más información, visiten lifeofthechurch.com/donate.  

Semana de la colecta, 8 y 9 de noviembre
Nuestra segunda colecta de hoy es para los seminaristas de la Arquidiócesis de Atlanta. En la arquidiócesis, hemos sido bendecidos con muchas vocaciones al sacerdocio, y sus oraciones y generosas donaciones de hoy apoyan a más de 50 hombres que se preparan para servir como sacerdotes en el norte y centro de Georgia en un futuro. Para más información, visiten lifeofthechurch.com/donate.  

Oración de los Fieles:
Por todos los jóvenes de nuestra parroquia que están tomando decisiones importantes en su vida, para que consideren el servicio al Pueblo de Dios como sacerdotes entre sus opciones, oremos al Señor.
