St Teresa’s Casserole Program “In the poor we see the hungry Christ looking up at us. Will we refuse him?” (Mother Teresa)
Please join your St. Teresa family by participating in the Casserole Program to help feed the poor and hungry families served by St. Vincent de Paul’s Cosgrove’s Kitchen in East St. Louis. This weekend we’re passing out casserole pans and recipes after each Mass to all who’d like to participate by preparing a casserole. Prepare one of the easy recipes provided, label and freeze the unbaked casserole. Bring the unbaked, frozen casserole to Mass next weekend.

MISSION
STATEMENT
Through Baptism, we become the Body of Christ. God
calls us as a family of faith to gather around the table of the Lord to
hear the Word and break the Bread. Enriched by our heritage and moved by
the spirit, we develop our gifts, love and serve one another and reach out
to all others with the love of Christ.
Please keep in your prayers our members in the Military who are working hard to defend our freedom still today. May God bless them and their families.
We are Praying for our Military The book which has the names of the military who are serving in the war zones is in the prayer room of the Blessed Mother and Saint Theresa. If you or any of your loved ones are serving in any of those areas, please take a moment to add your name. We continue to keep you in our daily prayers. Legion of Mary
