III II I WEDDING BANNS Frank Angelo Laury IV + Casey Christine Calcei Ryan Graves + Angela Brauer Tyler Richard Cote + Lauren Rachel Yanko FAMILY PERSPECTIVES The king in today s gospel sent wedding invitations to all his close friends people like himself. But the party wasn t successful until he opened the doors to everyone to people not like himself. The Christian family opens its heart and doors to everyone because we know that joy happens through sharing with others beyond our own family. Charity begins and extends beyond home.

I had the wonderful opportunity to stand at the spot where St. Paul preached in the city of Corinth. I chose Paul as my Confirmation name 51 years ago.

Vincent depaul Parish, now 180 years old, is grounded in a 2000-year-old vital Catholic Christian tradition.

Our next step is for groups of parishioners to come together around a specific Parish life component and develop objectives/action ideas to accomplish in the coming year.

4 St. Vincent de Paul Church Page Four Sunday, October 15, 2017 FROM THE PASTOR, FR. NORM It is good to be back home. Thanks for all your prayers as I journeyed following the footsteps of St. Paul through many towns and archaeological discoveries in Greece. I am sure you will hear about many of my adventures through future homilies. I had the wonderful opportunity to stand at the spot where St. Paul preached in the city of Corinth. I chose Paul as my Confirmation name 51 years ago. We celebrated Eucharist there among the ancient ruins and, of course, I preached - believe it or not - briefly. Our St. Vincent depaul Parish, now 180 years old, is grounded in a 2000-year-old vital Catholic Christian tradition. In last week s parish bulletin, we presented several prioritized goals which were discerned at our annual Parish Gathering. Our next step is for groups of parishioners to come together around a specific Parish life component and develop objectives/action ideas to accomplish in the coming year. If you have specific action ideas you want to see considered, please participate in the appropriate upcoming meeting. You will then have the choice whether you want to continue on in the Commission which will coordinate the implementation of these ideas. Below is the list of parish components and where and when people will meet to develop action ideas. I can do all things in him who strengthens me.
