SAINT VINCENT DE PAUL BUNDLE WEEKENDS - July 27 and 28

St. Linus NO LONGER has St. Vincent de Paul clothing collection boxes on church property. Instead we will have three “Bundle Weekends” in the parking lot. Collection boxes are still located at St. Gerald and St. Germaine parishes.

Our 2019 Bundle Weekends will be on April 27-28, July 27-28 and October 26-27.

Bundle Weekend July 27-28 - Our St. Linus Saint Vincent de Paul Conference will be accepting gently used clothing items at our “Bundle Weekend” on July 27-28. They will provide much-needed assistance to a struggling neighbor. Bring them to the church parking lot.

NON-PERISHABLE FOOD DRIVE - August 17 and 18

Please bring food to the Church Vestibule. All donations are greatly appreciated.

LOVE IN OUR WORKS

In this Sunday’s Gospel, Jesus affirms that to be a disciple we must also sit at his feet and listen to him. St. Vincent de Paul taught that it is only in prayer that we can give selfless loving service to those who are poor.

This week, please say a special prayer each day for the poor and forgotten in our parish.

In the meantime, we need your help with raffle prizes. If you have something you would like to donate (gift cards, theater or sporting event tickets, restaurant certificates, etc.) please contact Dana Pyzik by leaving your name and phone number at the rectory.

No donation is too large or too small when joined together to help those in need.
