usable, and valuable.

Time: We know everybody is busy; yet you find time

to give to this cause.

Energy: We so value all the consistent energy

you offer day after day.

Facilities: We are so appreciative to the parish

for use of the Education Center, the parish basement,

the storage area, and personnel.

Prayers: There are so many moments we depend

on the strength from your prayers.

Thoughts: We understand there are people unable

to work with us, but we know you are thinking about us.

Customers: It is always exciting and rewarding to visit with so

many parishioners as you shop for treasures and bargains.

Friendships: With most volunteers returning

year after year, we value the friendships

we have developed over time.

Laughter and fun: We thrived on the laughs

and good times we are able to share.

Profits: We realize how vital these funds are to BIZAA,

our parish international program of rescuing and educating

trafficked and street-laboring children.

Local causes: We are able to contribute to the needs of many local causes.

Memories: As the year continues, we remember the beauty of honoring God through His people in our parish,

our community, our country, and our big world. We thank you in God’s holy name.

Gospel Question of the Week

I was a Boy Scout, not a particularly

good one, but I do recognize in my life

certain traits that have been fixed into

my character because of my time as a

member of Troop 724. For example,

I am quick to take the garbage out.

I have a deep-rooted fear that, if

I don’t, raccoons or bears will come into the house at night and

by morning trash will be strewn around the kitchen. Also, while

I never have helped an old lady across the street, I am confi-

dent that I could help one to find a street on Google Maps.

Boy Scout summer camp was especially fun and formative for

me. That’s why I am so grateful that St. Vincent de Paul offers

such good summer camp experiences. This week our young

people are at Extreme Faith Camp. A few years ago, one

young man from my former parish was reluctant to attend and

felt “forced” to go by his parents.

Catholic Camp or VBS is also this week for our little ones. The

children will lift their hearts to the Trinity with help from St.

Patrick and learn to see God as a part of their everyday life.

Thank you staff and volunteers at SVDP! These summer camps

are making a lasting difference.

Flamingo Flocking Fundraiser For the Youth Mission Trip to the NPH home in Dominican Republic

How Flocking Works: You can flock a friend for a donation of only $20. Upon receipt of your Order

Form and donation, a small group of teens and adults will secretly place a flock of flamingos in the

requested friend’s front yard. Birds and signs will be delivered during the hours of 8 AM—8 PM on

the day requested (depending upon the availability of the flock), and will remain in the yard for

no more than 48 hours. A notice will be attached explaining the removal policy and how to

order the flamingos to be “forwarded”. Sorry, our birds may not migrate outside of a 15 mile

radius from St. Vincent de Paul, or be placed onto public property or rental property.

Requests can be made by filling out the Flocking Order form below, or by emailing the Flamingo Hotline

at flamingos@saintvdp.org. Please make checks payable to St. Vincent de Paul.

MAIL ORDER FORM AND CHECK TO:

St. Vincent de Paul, Attn: Flamingo Flocking, 9100 93rd Ave. N., Brooklyn Park, MN, 55445

Bring our

Gifts

Forward Families and groups of

individuals can ar-

range in advance to

perform the role of

“Gift Bearer” at Mass. The normal practice is to have three peo-

ple act as a team to bring forward the gifts of wine, water, and

bread to present to the Presider at Mass. It is a great way to

help celebrate a birthday, anniversary, graduation, or other

memorable event. Reservations may be made at the Church Of-

fice during regular office hours, and may be made for a specific

date and Mass time, up to one year in advance. We will “book”

the reservation with contact information.

A family or group can always cancel a reservation.

The Reservations will be posted Friday afternoon in the Usher

Room. The Family/Group must sit near the gifts table.

The Family/Group should introduce themselves to the usher

nearest the main doors 10 minutes prior to the beginning of

Mass. The usher will remind them of their duties. If no Family/

Group that has a reservation has made it known that they are

present with less than 10 minutes before Mass, then the usher will

select other persons to fulfill this role.

Help pack highly nutritional meals for the

hungry children of the world.

We pack the third Friday of every month

from 6:00 to 7:30 PM and the fourth Tues-

day of every month from 9:30-11:30 AM.

Meet new friends, have a good time and

feel good about your volunteer efforts.

FMSC is located at 401 93rd Ave NW,

Coon Rapids just off of 610 on the other

side of the Mississippi River. We always

welcome new volunteers. www.fmsc.org

Please Note: When we receive a request to place an individual on the prayer list in the bulletin, we will do so for a time period of four weeks. After four weeks, if prayers are still needed for that person, we ask that you call the office and request that

their name remain on the list. Thank you.

Please pray for the sick of our parish: Rita Goth, Bruce Guggemos, Tom Boos, Jeanette Rem,

Richard Scherber, & Danny Kroll.

To submit prayers or become a member of the Prayer Line, go to saintvdp.org, click on “Be Involved”, click on “Pray”,

then choose “Prayer Line” from the menu on the left.

Father of goodness and love, hear our prayers for the sick members of our community and for all who

are in need. Amid mental and physical suffering may they find consolation in your healing presence. Show your mercy as you close wounds, cure illness, make broken bodies whole and free downcast spir-

its. May these special people find lasting health and deliverance, and so join us in thanking you

for all your gifts. We ask this through the Lord Je-sus who healed those who believed. Amen.
