Mission Statement
St. John’s Parish family prayerfully worships, studies, teaches and lives our faith in Jesus Christ.
A Note from Father Yanta
Welcome to St. John’s
Opening Prayer
O God, glory of the faithful and life of the just, by the Death
and Resurrection of whose Son we have been redeemed,
look mercifully on your departed servants, that, just as they
professed the mystery of our resurrections, so they may
merit to receive the joys of eternal happiness. Through our
Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you
in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
Pray for Our Sick
Since November is the month we celebrate the victory of All
Saints and hold All Souls in our prayer, I am including two
prayers. One that we use for our opening prayer at All Souls
Day Mass. The other is a prayer for our young people that
they will have a deep relationship with our living God and
become living saints.
Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light
shine upon them. Amen.
Prayer for Young People
Heavenly Father,
Bless and protect all young people. Enliven the gift of faith
that you placed within them at their baptism. Open their
heart to experience your love. Draw them closer to you in a
personal relationship. Let them know that you are always
with them. Fill them with your Holy Spirit. Guide them to
good friends. Bring back those who wander from you, that
they might know and love your Son, Jesus. Amen.
We would like to welcome all those visiting with us today.
If you are interested in becoming a member of St. John’s,

Stewardship Update
Currently 55 families have responded to our challenge to
participate in our stewardship drive. This represents
approximately 10% of our parish family of almost 590
families! This is a good start, but we need another 240 to
participate to hit our goal of 50% participation for the parish!
Open Hours:
Tuesday 7am (winter sub needed for January—March)
Friday 3:00am
Saturday 1:00pm
Just a reminder, the chapel is closed and locked on:
Saturday 12am-5am, Sunday 1am-4am &
Wednesday 12am-9am
Knights of Columbus Corner
Meeting: Nov. 11th, 6:15 PM Mass with
meeting to follow and lunch after.
Attention: Pancake Breakfast—Nov. 23rd,
following all Masses! Volunteer to help by
calling 952-200-7435.
Through these 55 families, we have been able to raise
almost $540,000. What a great way to start a campaign! For
those that have yet to commit to the stewardship drive, we
encourage you to do so over the next few weeks. We look
forward to the coming weeks and continuing to update you
on the great progress we are making.
As Catholic men we are all given a Vocation. Help fulfill
your Vocation—join the Knights of Columbus and share in
Fraternity, Unity, Charity and Patriotism.
Membership Weekend: Nov. 15th and 16th.
The Dedication of the Lateran Basilica
As we pray today for an increase of spiritual
gifts, we are reminded by the bishops’ pastoral
on stewardship that good stewardship of the
Church “means cherishing and fostering the
gifts of all, while using one’s own gifts to serve
the community of faith.”
Parish Council Meeting October 28th
•

•
•
Dave Ortman, Capital Campaign manager, briefed the
Council on the plan and timeline to complete our goal
of paying off the debt within 5 years. The Stewardship
committee also has plans to recognize the time and
talent contributions made to the parish.
Much discussion on how the Council can evangelize to
build and strengthen our faith community. In addition
to promoting our social events such as Guess Who’s
Coming to Dinner, offering retreats and activities with a
spiritual focus for married couples, teens, and seniors
was suggested and strongly encouraged.
Roof and gutter repairs will be completed midNovember weather permitting. A generous donation
has been received to help cover the costs.
Committee reports were received from GROW, Fall
Festival, Faith Formation, Finance, School Board,
Liturgy, Maintenance and Cemetery with summaries
and updates provided in future bulletins.
After Mass reception(s) to honor and thank Sister Mary
for her service to St. John’s is planned for Nov 1516. She will be moving to Mankato in December.
From the Parish Administrator
Due to the amount of work and effort put into the Capital
Campaign Planning, we decided to wait in mailing the
Contributions Statements and the Fiscal 2013-14 Year End
Financial Report. We will provide an update in the
following weeks.

isolated in her home due to not having functional transportation. She will be moving by the end of November and
needs to have her car repaired and/or relocated prior to this
move. Skelley Towing in Belle Plaine and Wolf Motors in
Jordan are willing to accept donations for the tow (approx
$67) and repair work (possibly $200).
