Thank You
to Our
Volunteers
By: Molly Schorr,
Director of Parish Life
“Give something, however small, to the one in need. For it is not small to the
one who has nothing. Nor is it small to God if we have given what we could.”
~St. Gregory Nazianzen
St. Vincent de Paul is so appreciative of all the gifts of service you have
provided this year. Whether in teaching Faith Formation, bringing food for the
funeral lunches, praying at Adoration, distributing communion at the Maple
Grove hospital, lectoring at Mass, or any of the other volunteer opportunities,
your gifts of time and talent have been appreciated! That is why we would like
to invite ALL volunteers to the annual Volunteer Appreciation Night on Saturday May 2nd. This night will be a great time for the staff at St. Vincent to thank
you for all of the work that you do!
Again, please know that all volunteers of the parish are invited, kids and
adults! Your generosity allows St. Vincent to be the vibrant, welcoming,
prayerful parish that it is! Thank you for sharing your gifts with us!
Volunteer Appreciation Night
Saturday, May 2 nd 6-8 pm in Regan Hall

FEED MY STARVING
CHILDREN (FMSC)
The second collection for
FMSC on the weekend of
March 14th and 15th was
$8,482 - a 5% increase
from last year. Awesome, beautiful, simply amazing.
These dollars will provide
for 38,555 meals to God's
hungry children someplace
in the world. At the last
judgment when Jesus asks
if we fed his hungry children, we can confidently
respond, "We did as you
commanded us to do."
Reminder - we pack the 3rd Friday of every month from 6 to
7:30 pm and from 9:30 to 11:30 am on the 4th Tuesday
morning of every month. We always need new volunteers.
We get about 100 volunteers per month but we always
need more! We would love to have you join us. Duane
Crosland / [email protected] / 763-441-8683.
REMEMBER IN YOUR PRAYERS:
Please pray for † Kathy Bluhm.
Eternal rest grant unto her,
O Lord, and let perpetual light
shine upon her. May the souls
of all the faithful departed,
through the mercy of God,
rest in peace. Amen.
PROJECT RACHEL: FOR MEN & WOMEN
Men experience many of the same painful
emotions as women after abortion, but they
often mistakenly believe their feelings are unwarranted. Without an outlet, men may feel
withdrawn, depressed or emotionally volatile.
The pain of abortion affects all involved, both
women and men. We can help.
Contact Project Rachel for confidential individual referrals.

“SEASONS OF HOPE”
GRIEF SUPPORT GROUP
“Blessed are those who mourn,
for they will be comforted.”
— Matthew 5:4
Mourning the loss of a loved one is never
easy, but there is hope. St. Vincent de
Paul parish is offering “Seasons of
Hope,” a unique support group for the bereaved. If you are
in need of consolation after losing a loved one, we hope
that you will prayerfully consider our invitation to attend.
The group will meet beginning
this Monday, Apr. 13th
from 7-8:30 pm in the
West Meeting Room.
The group will continue to meet
each Monday thereafter for 6 weeks (through May 18th).
Be uplifted knowing that the Lord blesses those who
mourn. If you have questions or are interested in attending,
please contact Margaret Schauer in the parish office at 763
-227-4980 or e-mail her at [email protected].
ST. VINCENT DE PAUL HITS THE ROAD…
Our parish Outreach ministry started taking parishioners on
the road since last month and schedules run through May
2015. This new program highlights the Eucharistic message
of going into and beyond our immediate communities to
become the “Jesus” we receive daily and weekly at Mass.
When we hit the road these coming months, we will be visiting the following organizations and communities.

Saturday, April 25th:
Hmong American
Farmers’ Association

Tuesday, May 26th:
East Side Neighborhood
Development Co.
Please, consider joining us for some or all of these local
immersion trips, which are meant to affirm our presence not
just as a church IN the community, but a church FOR and
WITH the community in the spirit of our patron saint –
St. Vincent de Paul.
For more information, please contact Okey Anyanwu
at the parish office: (763) 762-7417.
or e-mail: [email protected]
PLEASE REMEMBER THE SICK OF OUR
PARISH IN YOUR PRAYERS:
Danny Kroll, Darlene Gross, Darlene Loeffler,
Veronica Smude, Bob Burks, Cole McDonough,
Sylvia Ditter, Alfred Smith, Jerien Okoh-Tisch,
Paul Costabilo, Steve Kane, Ed Kauffmann, & Mary Belter.

INSPIRING AND INFORMATIVE
CATHOLIC CD’S
Still only $3 each!
A new shipment of CD’s has arrived, so
look for new titles.
One of the titles is: “The Eucharist, Our Very Life”.
As a medical doctor and licensed psychotherapist, Deacon,
Dr. Bob McDonald knows very well the deep hunger and
inner needs of the human heart. He explains how the Holy
Eucharist becomes the core and center of our lives since
only Jesus can fill what is lacking within the Human Spirit
that is bruised and broken. Discover the immensity of God’s
love revealed by His Real Presence.
Check out the display in the Gathering Space
with 12 different titles.
QUESTION OF THE WEEK
 Adult/Teen: Do you feel that
there are situations in people’s
lives when they can withhold
forgiveness from another?
 Child: Do you ever choose not to
forgive someone?
Please take some time today to discuss these questions or reflect
on them in private prayer.
