S On the first 2 pages of our bulletin, you’ll find our

Highlight of the Week and information about Worship and

Sacraments at St. Vincent de Paul. The Highlight is a featured

space to give more details about a particular ministry or event.

In the Worship & Sacraments section, we introduce the

readings for the upcoming week and include articles about the

various Sacraments celebrated at St. Vincent de Paul.

The Seven Sacraments are the outward signs instituted by

Christ to give grace to us, and therefore are vital to the life of

our parish. These pages also include a calendar of parish

events for the upcoming week.

Another year comes to an end. There is

an old German saying, “Alles hat ein

Ende; nur die Wurst hat zwei.”

Translated, it teaches us, “Everything

has an end; only the sausage has two.”

The end of the year always invites us

to reflect on the end times – and to

remind us that a day of reckoning is coming. If this past year

has taught us anything, it is that a time of reckoning already is

upon us.

For many in the public eye, 2017 was a year of facing up to

allegations of misconduct and lurid pasts. It was a year in

which maybe we all learned how better to own up to our own

sins, to beg pardon, and to make amends. I pray that we

learned something else too – that is, how to make strides to

become people who know how to forgive.

So perhaps the sausage is not the only thing with two ends.

A first end must come for us now – as we resolve to bring to

an end all of our wounding and wounded ways. If we can do

that, then our final end is something we can look forward to in

hope. May the Lord show the way in 2018.

In the Parish Staff & Administration section of our bulletin,

you can see all the administrative updates for the Parish,

as well as announcements about our staff, finances, & facilities.

From our Pastor

The early deadline for the Jan. 7 bulletin has

passed. The deadline for submissions for the

Jan. 14 bulletin is Monday, Jan. 8 at Noon.

Bring our Gifts Forward Families and groups of individuals can arrange in advance to

perform the role of “Gift Bearer” at Mass. The normal practice is

to have three people act as a team to bring forward the gifts of

wine, water, and bread to present to the Presider at Mass. It is a

great way to help celebrate a birthday, anniversary, gradua-

tion, or other memorable event. Reservations may be made at

the Church Office during regular office hours, and may be made

for a specific date and Mass time, up to one year in advance.

We will “book” the reservation with contact information.

A family or group can always cancel a reservation.

The Reservations will be posted Friday afternoon in the Usher

Room. The Family/Group must sit near the gifts table.

The Family/Group should introduce themselves to the usher

nearest the main doors 10 minutes prior to the beginning of

Mass. The usher will remind them of their duties. If no Family/

Group that has a reservation has made it known that they are

present with less than 10 minutes before Mass, then the usher will

select other persons to fulfill this role.

Year-End Giving

To read more

or to donate, go to:

https://saintvdp.org/year-end-giving

With possible changes in federal tax law

that reduce tax rates in later years, you may

want to consider a financial donation in 2017.

Here are some options that would support

our Parish Community:

▪ The Blessings Fund – is created to help with tuition aid at

St. Vincent de Paul School. Our society benefits from

students educated in strong Catholic schools. Your donation

helps support this important ministry by providing financial

assistance to students in need.

▪ Major Repair and Replacement – your donation funds the

larger facility costs that are not supported by our annual

operating budget, such as roof, parking lot, HVAC, other

equipment, and lighting.

▪ Generosity for Generations Capital Campaign – Current

contributions are fulfilling our Well-Grounded goal of paying

off our land mortgage. Consider a one-time donation.

Year End Stock Gift

If you are in a tax bracket of 15% or higher, claim itemized

deductions, and have owned an appreciated stock for more than

a year, the donation of that stock can have a double tax benefit.

More information can be found at www.saintvdp.org/stock.

There are some restrictions, so please consult with a financial

professional before making such a decision.

It is with heartfelt appreciation that we will

sadly say farewell to Margaret Schauer,

our Coordinator of Pastoral Care, at the

end of December. Margaret Schauer has made such a lasting

impact on our parish. She has served as

our Pastoral Minister for over 10 years,

caring for those in need and contributing in

countless ways in areas that have not

always be seen by others.

Thank you Margaret, and best wishes!

A Fond Farewell to Margaret Schauer

Margaret has decided to

take the position of

Late Life Specialist with

St. Therese Homes

beginning in January.

Note: the parish office will be closed on Monday, January 1 for the New Year’s Holiday.

The Fellowship & Faith Formation section of the bulletin is where you can find opportunities to connect with

other parishioners through shared activities for fellowship and spiritual growth. This is where you’ll find information about

upcoming social activities and the various groups you are invited to join at our parish. We categorize the activities

by age group to make it easier for you to find the opportunities that appeal to you.

You will also check this section when you want to learn more about our Catholic faith. You can grow your faith together

with other parishioners through various Bible studies, small prayer groups, speakers, retreats, classes and other activities

for school-aged children, and much more. Your presence is welcome and needed!
