OUR BASKETBALL TEAM
Come and cheer on our basketball team (Ravens) on
Monday, January 23 at 4:30 pm. This is their first
home game and we need a few good souls to run concessions and the scoreboard. Please come.
ST. THOMAS BECKET'S RC CHALLENGE
As you know, SSPX parishioners are no longer welcome at
the RC Challenge in Portland; so, we are holding our own .. a
traditional Catholic quiz challenge, the mornings of April 28
and 29. (Yes, it is purposely (sic) the same weekend as the Renaissance Festival.) We are hoping to havc teams from all
over the area competing, including our chapels in Post
Falls, ID, Portland, Klamath Falls and Los Gatos, CA.
Plus, a number of teams can bc formed by home-schoolers
and friends in Eugene, Salem and Silverton. Registration
forms are now available which include the rules of the game
and study guides and tips. Please contact the school office
at 541-935-0149 or email Fr. Cooper for the registration
forms at frprior@sttbchurch.org.
RENAISSANCE FESTIVAL
We think you will really enjoy the annual festival this year,
scheduled for Saturday, April 28. There will be silent auction in the gymnasium from 5:00 to 6:30, with drinks and
hors d'oeurves served. At 6:30pm is the dinner followed by
the live auction in the cafeteria/auditorium. Please help by
collecting items for both auctions. If we work together this
may prove thc most successful year yet.
OUR WASHINGTON DC TRIP
Eighteen students and chaperones from St. Thomas Becket
Academy are in Washington DC this week. They will be
taking part in the National Right to Life March tomorrow
(with 500,000 other people) and seeing the sites in our nation's capital and in Gettysburg, PA. Please pray for them
that they might be safe and blessed. Thank you for all your
help and support. We'll be praying for all our benefactors
daily. God bless you.

HELP STOP PUBLIC FUNDING OF ABORTION
"No public funds shall be used to fund abortions, .... "
Following up on last year's petition to stop the funding of
abortions, we are now permitted to get this on the ballet.
In order to accomplish this we need 11,000 signatures. This
bill is at least a start in the fight against abortion.
What can we do? - If you are a registered voter in Lane County, please
sign the petition in the vestibule.
- Volunteer to collect signatures (we need 75 volunteers to collect 1 signature per day).
