We wait in joyful expectation for the coming of our Lord as King. But what we are told to expect and rejoice over is a meek and humble king, riding on an ass. Not horses or chariots of the great and mighty, but a humble beast carries the Ruler whose dominion stretches "from the River to the ends of the earth" (Zechariah 9:10). This King comes to banish the tools of the warrior and bring peace. No wonder that a weary world rejoices and gives thanks to God! Copyright (c) J. S. Paluch Co., Inc. WELCOME TO OUR NEWLY BAPTIZED!

St. Vincent de Paul Church Page Six Sunday, July 9, 2017 A REQUEST FROM OUR APOSTOLIC ADMINISTRATOR DEAR FAITHFUL OF THE DIOCESE OF CLEVELAND, It is only by your prayers and the tremendous assistance

As I enter the sixth month of serving as Apostolic Administrator of Cleveland, I ask you to redouble your prayers that the Lord may give every grace to fulfill this role.

With deep thanks in Christ Jesus, Most Reverend Daniel E. Thomas FATHER DAVE S PRAYER GARDEN Since Father Dave s arrival at St. Vincent de Paul Parish he has been a consistent presence in the school.

6 St. Vincent de Paul Church Page Six Sunday, July 9, 2017 A REQUEST FROM OUR APOSTOLIC ADMINISTRATOR DEAR FAITHFUL OF THE DIOCESE OF CLEVELAND, It is only by your prayers and the tremendous assistance of so many tireless coworkers that I have been sustained by the Lord in my duties of shepherding two dioceses. As I enter the sixth month of serving as Apostolic Administrator of Cleveland, I ask you to redouble your prayers that the Lord may give every grace to fulfill this role. Please also remember the intentions of Bishop Richard Lennon in retirement, and of Pope Francis, as we await his appointment of a new bishop for the Diocese of Cleveland. With deep thanks in Christ Jesus, Most Reverend Daniel E. Thomas FATHER DAVE S PRAYER GARDEN Since Father Dave s arrival at St. Vincent de Paul Parish he has been a consistent presence in the school. He knows students by name and joins them for lunch regularly. The students, teachers, and Father enjoy the time together. As we approach the new school year, Father Dave and the Eighth Grade class will embark on a scientific, mathematical, and spiritual journey together. Father is an expert gardener and has vast knowledge of native Ohio annuals. He is going to guide our eighth graders as they design and create a prayerful garden experience to be enjoyed by the entire parish. Father has access to over fifty plants indigenous to Ohio and will be an integral part of our learners research as they discover what each plant needs to thrive on our parish grounds. They will study soil content, water drainage, and light patterns before they design and create a beautiful space to enjoy God s gift of nature and reflect in prayer. We ask that you pray for Father Dave, our Eighth Grade Learners, and our teachers as they embark on this learning journey in September. If you are interested in helping with the project, please reach out to STEM coach, Beth Waller a bwaller@stvincentelementary.com
