Organ Recital - Sunday, June 12 This is a rare (and free) organ recital not to be missed! Duel-ing organists Patrick Henning of Nativity and Jeff Patry of Sa-cred Heart in Robbinsdale will present a stunning array of organ music next Sunday at 2pm that will leave you wanting more! Featuring music by Canadian composers, a contest of National Anthems, and culminating in a spirited arrangement of John Philip Sousa’s Stars and Stripes Forever, you won’t want to miss this chance to hear music that will definitely send you home humming.

Rest
Moments of relaxation and peace are vital, and allow God the space to reach into our lives.
How can you find the rest that renews you
and strengthens your spirit?
Open a window and listen to the birds singing. Throw a ball with a child.
Look through an old photo album. Take a nap. Call a friend.
Breathe deeply. Take a leisurely walk.
Stop in to a quiet church for a moment of prayer. Stare at the sky.
Hum a spiritual song. Take a bath instead of a shower.
Turn off your cell phone. Plan a do-nothing Sunday.
Jesus, help me to find moments
of peace and rest in you.
June Meeting - June 13 June's Respect Life meeting will be the 2nd Monday of the month at the home of Karen McCann. We will meet from 7-8:30pm, including praying the Rosary from 8-8:30pm. Newcomers are always welcome, dessert will be served, and you’re welcome to come and go as you are able. Respect Life Book Discussion - June 20 The next book we will be discussing is Mark Crutcher's com-pelling 320-page expose of the American abortion industry, Lime 5: Exploited By Choice. A unique and uncensored look at our nation's most wrenching social issue, it’s a must-read for anyone seeking the truth about abortion. We will meet Monday, June 20 from 6-8pm for a potluck at the home of Karen McCann. Call Karen to RSVP by June 19 at [email protected] or (612) 964-4522 or to get a copy of the book for $5-8.
