Payment Procedures
(for those who drop off checks and order forms at church)
The basket at the 91st St. entrance to the church which has been
used to drop off Market Day checks and order forms (for parishioners who prefer not to order on-line) tends to wander off or
collect non-Market Day refuse. So that we don’t misplace any
orders or checks, we are asking that you simply place your order
and payment in the collection basket. We will take care of the
rest!
Please know that blank order forms will still be available at the
entrances to the church as always. If you have any questions,
please contact:
Michele Nowak-Lareau [email protected]
or Joylyn Patrick [email protected].
St. Vincent de Paul
Spring Clothing Drive
Saturday, May 16th
Our spring clothing drive to help those in need in our community
is scheduled for Saturday, May 16th, from 10:00 AM until 1:00
PM in the South Hall. We are looking for spring and summer
clothing at this time. You may also donate accessories (purses,
shoes, belts, etc.) baby and children’s clothing; blankets; kitchen
items; linens (sheets, towels, curtains, tablecloths, etc.) and small
working appliances. Please bring only clean, wearable and usable items. If you can't get to the drive on the 16th and would like
a pick-up, please contact Steve Obscherning at 414-559-9146 by
May 13th to arrange one. The less fortunate in our greater community truly benefit from this drive, and we thank you for your
caring and continued generosity.
Oh good and gracious God, we thank you for all you have given
to us. We know that we are blessed with more clothes than we
really need. Help us to share with those who have very little. As
we stand before our closets and look at all we own, open our
hearts to the needs of others and help us to generously give to
our brothers and sisters in need. We ask this in Jesus' name.
Amen.
(This is a Human Concerns Sponsored Activity)
St. Vincent de Paul Meal Program
Our regular second Wednesday meal program is scheduled for
May 13th. There is no need to sign up, just let your heart decide
and drop it off anytime before 4:00 on the second Wednesday of
every month (coolers provided). Another great way to help is to
donate money on Share Sunday, the first Sunday of each month.
These funds are used to purchase ham, cheese and hard rolls
each month. Thank you! Please contact Julie with any questions
at [email protected] or 453-2326. Drop-off locations:
Sweet Bread: ...................................... Campbell, 2565 N. 86th St.
Jello: ................................................. McLennon, 2571 N. 86th St.

your faith journey. We are waiting for you!
Happy mother’s day!
A Mother’s Prayer:
Thank you, Lord, for bringing my children into my life. Help me guide them and
teach them through example to lead lives of wisdom and strong, loving faith.
Please let them learn to serve you always in thought and deed. And remind
me, Lord, to always be there for my family as you are always there for me.
Amen

Parish corporation treasurer
Box tops for education
Having received no additional nominations for
the position of Trustee-Treasurer by two weeks
prior to the trustee election (5/17/15), the sole
nominee, Margaret Capper, is re-elected for a
two-year term.
Thank you for bringing in those Box Tops for Education to
the Parish Office. Our bin is almost full! Please keep
them coming and help us move to a larger container!
What an easy way to contribute to a valuable fundraiser
and help support our school!
Low Gluten Hosts
“For bread to be valid ma
er for the Eucharist, it must be made solely of wheat; contain enough gluten to effect the confec on of bread.” ‐‐“Celiac Disease, Alcohol Intolerance, and the Church's Pastoral Response” from the Commi ee on Divine Worship NewsleƩer, October 2012 © 2012, United States Conference of Catholic Bishops The Church reminds us of this fact on a fairly regular basis. But this is of concern among an escalating number of
Catholics who suffer from Celiac Sprue disease or some form of gluten intolerance.
In an attempt to try to be more inclusive of those who are so afflicted, low-gluten hosts will be made available at
the Sunday Masses, beginning this weekend. These hosts are not gluten-free, though the level is extremely low
(less than twenty parts per million [<20 ppm]) and are therefore in strict adherence to Canon Law.
If you are intolerant of gluten and would like to receive one of these hosts, the priest will have them available in
his ciborium. Get into his line at the Communion procession and indicate this fact when you receive. The hosts
will be placed in a special container to help minimize cross contamination.
The reality is that the trace amounts of gluten that is contained in the low-gluten hosts or the residue that may
cling to Father’s hands after handling the regular hosts may still make it impossible for some to receive the Holy
Eucharist under the form of bread. If this is the case, we encourage you to receive the Blessed Sacrament under
the form of wine, and remind you that the Church teaches that under either species of bread or wine, the whole
Christ is received. Therefore, be confident that the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist is received, even under
only one or the other species.

Have you ever thought about taking the next step? Perhaps you
have never been part of a Christian community or never been
baptized, but now you have felt drawn to begin this journey of
faith in Jesus Christ. Perhaps you’ve been baptized and raised in
another Christian tradition, but now you want to continue your
life of faith in the Catholic Church ... or at least explore what that
means. If either of these describes you, we would very much
like to hear from you. We want to listen to your story of faith or
non-faith, answer your questions, and share with you the beauty,
truth, and wonder of the Catholic faith. If you want to know
more, please contact the Parish Office at 414-258-2604.
