lection as we unite in solidarity with the work of the

Holy Father. The Peter’s Pence collection allows

Pope Francis to further works of charity with those

suffering people around the world.

Join Pope Francis and be a witness of charity

throughout the world. Please be generous in the Pe-

ter’s Pence Collection.

PARKING LOT RESEALING

With the rain, the schedule to reseal the park-

ing lot has needed to change. The current plan is for

the front lot to be resealed Monday, June 22nd. We

appreciate your patience as we work with the weather!

CLOSING OUT OUR CERTIFICATE

PROGRAM After 10+ years of parishioner support, we

have decided to close out our certificate program.

Times have changed and cards are available now in

most stores, and that caters much better to those who

need to buy “right away” or on impulse!

We thank all of you who have “shopped” via

this program and for the additional financial resources

we earned as a result.

NOW, WE ASK FOR ONE LAST BIT OF

SUPPORT: We need to close out our inventory,

which consists of approximately $9,000 in Bob Ev-

ans, Darden Restaurants (Red Lobster, Olive Garden,

Longhorn Steakhouse), Kohl’s, Cracker Barrel,

Panera Bread, Speedway, Meijers (lots of Meijers)

and others. If you are one who plans ahead or is a

regular shopper/diner/etc., at these places, what a tre-

mendous help it would be to us for you to purchase

cards from our inventory.

Please call Mary in the Rectory at 254-6233

to check current inventory, and we will do whatev-

er we can to facilitate getting the cards to you!

You pay the face value and the parish has already

received a percentage of that.

Happy Father’s Day! Father Dave always says that the world needs good papas! We are grate-ful for ours. Thank you for your love, guidance, and faith!

ST. HELEN GREEN TEAM Are you planning a camping trip this summer?

Camping is considered one of the best ways to

experience God’s gift of creation. You can camp nat-

urally, with more care for the environment by follow-

ing some basic tips.

1. Use biodegradable soap for dish washing, bathing

and laundry while camping.

2. Bring a set of reusable dishes and flatware - ditch

the disposables!

3. Purchase produce for your trip from a local organic

farm along the way!

4. Try citronella candles instead of toxic chemical

insect repellants. Wear long sleeves and long pants at

dawn and dusk when insects are most active.

5. Be sure to set up tents in designated areas to pro-

tect native plant life.

6. Leave no trace! Pack out all your trash when back-

packing. Leave your campsite cleaner than you found

it!

7. Start your day with fair trade coffee. This coffee

provides a living wage for coffee farmers, protects

rainforest habitat, and helps minimize chemical pesti-

cides and fertilizers in our environment. Don’t forget

the fair trade chocolate bars for your S'mores!

These tips and more can be found at

www.naturemoms.com/natural-camping-tips.html

THANK YOU The Baskets Galore & More booth would like

to thank the parishioners of St. Helen’s, who donated

so generously of items, full baskets, money, and time.

Our booth had a record year thanks in a large part to

all of you. We couldn't have done it without your sup-

port. Kim Braun and Beth Gosser, Booth Chairs
