3 Christian Services OPPORTUNITIES TO VOLUNTEER! every Saint Vincent de Paul RESPECT FOR LIFE ALL GOOD THINGS COME FROM GOD Lord, you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Psalm 139:13-14, NAB.

Give and gifts will be given to you; a good measure, packed together, shaken down, and overflowing, will be poured into your lap. For the measure with which you measure will in return be measured out to you SVdP Help Line SVdP Donation Line Answered Monday through Friday 8:30-4:30 Reminder Schools will soon be letting out for summer break which means we will see an increased need for the basics such as peanut butter, jelly, tuna, spaghetti, etc. As well, personal care items are always appreciated. HUMAN DIGNITY FROM GOD... The following is from Gaudium et Spes, 19. The root reason for human dignity lies in man s call to communion with God. From the very circumstances of his origin, man is already invited to converse with God. For man would not exist were he not created by God s love and constantly preserved by it; and he cannot live fully according to truth unless he freely acknowledges that love and devotes himself to his Creator. Life Facts: Even at 3 weeks of life, the heart of an embryo beats 100 times per minute. Every minute during pregnancy, 1 pint of blood is pumping into the uterus, exchanging nutrients between mom and child through the umbilical cord.
