Seen a bulletin insert like this recently?

What's the last time you've seen a Sunday bulletin insert like this one? I was pleased to find it in the St. Josaphat bulletin from last Sunday, March 29, 2009:
Here's a timely Lenten Message to keep in mind!

Christian! Remember This!

Only One Thing Is Necessary!

Save Your Soul!

  1. Receive regularly the Sacraments of Penance and the Holy Eucharist!

  2. Say your morning and evening prayers. Make acts of Faith, Hope and Charity every day and night, before retiring examine your Conscience and make an act of Contrition.

  3. Attend Mass on all Sundays and Holy Days of Obligation.

  4. If there exist any Church Societies in your parish, join at least one of them.

  5. It is an obligation blinding under sin to contribute to the support of the Church.

  6. You are obliged to avoid the occasion of sin; an occasion of sin is any person, place or thing, which will likely lead you into sin.

  7. Practice Daily Devotion to the Blessed Virgin; pray to her particularly for the grace of a Happy Death.

  8. Always remember: Death -- Judgment -- Heaven -- Hell, and you will persevere unto the end.
