Learn about this Jubilee Event, April 4th to 11th, 2018

The parish's Home Mass Program is a feature of our special Jubilee Year celebrations — and we see it, in part, as in lieu of a Parish Visitation. The concept is that when a parish family volunteers to host a Home Mass, the parish will invite nearby parishioners who would have been visited by one of our clergy on one day of the Parish Visitation. If they have the room, the host family is free to invite others. The visiting priest and those present then have an opportunity to interact informally about the life of the parish. More detail was given in a letter sent to all parish families. A Sign-Up Genius program enables families willing to host a Home Mass to sign-up for one of the available dates.
2 to 4 P.M. Saturday, October 28th St. Vincent de Paul's Jubilee Social Committee will be sponsoring a Halloween Party on Saturday, October 28th, from 2:00 to 4:00 P.M. in the Church Hall. Come dressed as your favorite ghoul, goblin or fairy princess and compete for prizes, play games and enjoy treats! There will be no 'tricks' at this party! To help us determine how many are planning to attend this event, please sign-up.
Sunday, November 19th, 12:30 to 3:00 P.M. Helping Hands is a unique hands-on volunteer event founded on Matthew 25:35 and the Catholic call to social justice. Developed by CRS and Stop Hunger Now, Helping Hands is a meal-packaging program that is fun for adults and children. Volunteers come together to package nutritious meals for people in developing countries who are suffering from food shortages and famine. The meals we package will be distributed to vulerable children, women and men in Burkina Faso, West Africa. We are looking for 120 enthusiastic volunteers.
Many thanks. Click here for more information about Helping Hands. Alpha is a series of sessions designed to develop in the participants a deeper relationship with Jesus and openness to the presence of the Holy Spirit in our lives. Approximately 60 individuals are participating in Alpha sessions each Thursday. Each session begins with a meal which is followed by a video talk by Nicky Gumbel, and then small group discussions. The talks are designed to encourage conversation in a friendly, open and informal environment. The first three talks are made available here for those who missed them.
Participants in the Alpha Program are asked to sign up for the "Day Away," Saturday, November 11th, from 9:00 A.M. to 4:30 P.M., at the Cranaleith Spiritual Center in Sommerton.
Prayer works! We ask that the entire parish pray both for the Alpha team and for the participants. The Alpha program is reliant on the Holy Spirit, and not on the expertise of the team or the participants. So please pray that the Holy Spirit blesses the endeavors of the parish in presenting the Alpha program. April 4th - 11th, 2018 Join Father McLaughlin and your St. Vincent de Paul family on our Jubilee Paris Parish Pilgrimage, visiting Paris in the footsteps of St. Vincent de Paul. Visit both the Chapel of St. Vincent, which contains St. Vincent's earthly remains, and the nearby Chapel of the Miraculous Medal which contains St. Louise de Marillac's earthly remains. Sunday Mass will be at Notre Dame Cathedral. There will also be time to visit the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, etc. Click here for more information.
