St. Vincent de Paul at Dutzow, high above the
surrounding countryside, shares with its faithful a
rich heritage of Catholic belief.
As God’s people our Mission is:
To make Jesus Christ present in our daily lives
through Divine worship, Christian education and
service to our neighbor. To strive through ethical
conduct, generous hearts, and industrious lives,
to give glory and honor to GOD.
ABOVE ALL WE ARE A CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY.
SMALL ENOUGH TO CARE.
HUMBLE ENOUGH TO SERVE.
STRONG ENOUGH TO NOURISH

Our Walk Toward Christ
Hopefully, you’ve all received your parish letter about our upcoming Parish Mission, “Our Walk Toward
Christ.” It is a spiritually refreshing event that takes place over the course of 5 days. While usually in
the evenings, our first day of Mission, Sunday, February 3rd, will be at 1:30 in the afternoon, finished in
plenty of time so all who wish can enjoy the Super Bowl. Monday thru Thursday evenings at 6:30pm.
Each day features honest and thought-provoking explorations on faith topics such as the Bible, the Crucifix, Sin, Reconciliation and Healing, plus a Eucharistic Celebration on Thursday evening. It will be given
by Fr. Pete Shavitz, a Redemptorist missionary. He will preach at all weekend Masses February 2-3 to
introduce the Mission. We will also be showing a video about the Mission next weekend at all Masses.
We will offer babysitting for the little ones, a children’s Mission for those K-4, and transportation for
those in need. Please fill out the form below so we can plan our materials. Bring the whole family. Invite neighbors and friends. Everyone is welcome.
This is an event you don’t want to miss! Start now to arrange your schedule and family obligations so
that you will be available to attend. Mark your calendars NOW!
We spend so much time taking care of family and others. This is an opportunity to take care of YOU.
What a blessing our Parish Mission will be during this Year of Faith and a great preparation for Lent
which will begin a week later.

“...the Gentiles are coheirs, members of the same body, and

Monday, January 7
School Society 6:30pm
Today we celebrate the fact that Christ came to all of us, not
just the Hebrews. He made us all one body with Him. Because
God has given us different gifts, we all have different yet equally
valuable roles to play in the Body of Christ. If one of us does not
play his or her role the whole body suffers. How will you play
your role this year?
