DD LOCAL: ST EUNAN’S CATHEDRAL PARISH BULLETIN
NEWSLETTER – Sunday 13th January 2013 – The Baptism of the LORDYOUR BABY’S BAPTISMYour child’s baptism is a time of celebration and joy. Naturally, you want the best for your child. Why do you want baptism for your child in the Church? There may be many reasons… Seems to be the thing to do? Someone else in the family wants it? It’s on my “to do” list? I’m afraid something might happen my child? It’s a significant step that starts the faith journey? How the Church sees BaptismThe Church sees Baptism as the first important step on the Christian journey. On the day your child was born, he/she was welcomed into your family. On the day of baptism they are welcomed into the bigger family of the Lord, the Church. In baptism we enter into a unique and special relationship with the person of Jesus Christ and we try to live out that relationship in and through the people around us. Or put another way … in Baptism we become:A son/daughter of God the Father ~ A brother/sister of Jesus ChristA temple of the Holy Spirit ~ A member of God’s family, the Church. Baptism takes place on a Sunday at 1.30 pm in the Cathedral. Parents are asked to contact the Parochial House on 9121021 to arrange an appointment with one of the Priests to fill out a Baptism Card. Please bring along your child’s birth certificate. Baptism Preparation takes place every second Tuesday at 8 pm in the Parochial House.WOULD YOU LIKE TO UNDERSTAND THE BIBLE BETTER?An 8 part basic introduction to the Bible will be held every Wednesday in the Parochial House at 8.15 pm.

FROM NEIL DOHERTY AT FIR PARK: THERE were rumours all around Glasgow this morning that defeat for Celtic here against Motherwell today would have spelled the end of Neil Lennon’s time in charge of the Hoops.The fans have been getting restless in recent weeks as Rangers, who have spent very little money, seem to be racing away with the title already.Today Celtic came to Fir Park and, inspired by Derry supersub Paddy McCourt, went home with three points in the bag. And a great deal of relief for players and fans alike, especially the few dozen fans who travelled once again from County Donegal. The result leaves Celtic 12 points behind Rangers with a game in hand.Michael Higdon had headed Mothewell into an 11th-minute lead but Anthony Stokes replied from close range just three minutes later.The turning point came 13 minutes from the end when Paddy McCourt replaced Samaras for the Hoops.The finest dribbler in the Scottish game ran at the terrified Motherwell defence three minutes later, and as they backed off, McCourt fed Stokes to his left who fired a ball across the face of the goal for Gary Hooper to score with the easiest of tap-ins. Motherwell’s hopes of a comeback were over soon afterwards when Tim Clancy was sent off for a foolish kick at Hooper.And after Thursday’s 3-1 Europa League win over Rennes at Parkhead, Lennon said the result showed his side are up for the title fight.He told ESPN TV: “On the back of what was a really physical game on Thursday to come here and win, it speaks volumes for the players.“We know they’ve got it. They’ve got talent in abundance.”THE HOOPS REPORT: SUPER-SUB McCOURT INSPIRES CELTS TO VICTORY was last modified: November 6th, 2011 by BrendaShare this:Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)Click to share on Reddit (Opens in new window)Click to share on Pocket (Opens in new window)Click to share on Telegram (Opens in new window)Click to share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)Click to share on Skype (Opens in new window)Click to print (Opens in new window) Tags:Celticceltic fcmotherwellNeil LennonPaddy McCourt
The Drake University men’s basketball team hosts Illinois State Wednesday, Jan. 3, evening in a clash of Missouri Valley Conference leaders at the Knapp Center. Both Drake and Illinois State jumped out to 2-0 conference records in the first week of MVC action to sit on top of the league standings. Tipoff between the Bulldogs and Redbirds is set for 7 p.m. with the contest being broadcast locally on Mediacom MC22 and The Valley On ESPN3. Story Links However, defense has been the team’s catalyst in the last three wins as the Bulldogs have held each of those opponents under 40 percent shooting. Drake last held three-consecutive opponents under 40 percent shooting during the 2011-12 season. Those misses have fueled Drake’s transition offense as the team is averaging nearly 12 fastbreak points per game in those three wins, more than double its average in the previous 12 contests. Live Audio ESPN3 Senior Reed Timmer (New Berlin, Wis.) posted his seventh 20-point game of the season with 20 points in the win at SIU to move into fourth all-time in scoring at Drake with 1,631. That total ranks 17th among active NCAA Division I players and moves him just 159 points away from becoming Drake’s all-time scoring leader. Wednesday’s game is also Dollar Night at the Knapp Center with advance tickets available for $1 via DrakeTix.com. Select concessions will also be available for $1. Buy Tickets Nick McGlynn (Stoughton, Wis.) has complemented Timmer’s guard play as the forward is averaging 14.0 points and 9.0 rebounds per game in the Bulldogs’ two MVC wins. Wednesday’s home game comes before back-to-back road dates at Indiana State and MVC newcomer Valparaiso before the Bulldogs return to the Knapp Center Jan. 13 to host Evansville. Print Friendly Version Live Stats Drake Game Notes The Redbirds make their annual visit to the Knapp Center after an overtime win against Indiana State Sunday to improve to 2-0 in the MVC. The Bulldogs matched that start with a 70-67 at SIU for their second conference victory of the season. The Bulldogs opened the MVC season with a 66-64 win over Bradley to remain undefeated at the Knapp Center this year.
