MYO Corner
The MYO would like to thank everyone who made our Father’s Day "survival" basket sale a success! At a recent meeting, the group picked grape leaves (waraq ‘enab) and learned how to freeze them. Gotta keep those traditions alive!! SAVE the DATE: The MYO will be holding a summer camp out from August 17-19 for youth, ages 12 – 17. Activities include canoeing, games, bonfires, and more!! Details to follow. Come join us at one or more of our summer meetings, Tuesday nights at 6 PM (normally at church). The MYO is growing. Please contact John Corey at 612.232.6377 or your favorite MYO kid with questions.
PLEASE, Don’t Forget
There are many people in the world who are suffering in ways we cannot even imagine and not just because of the Coronavirus. Let’s not forget our families and friends, not just here in the States but also in Lebanon who have experienced and are still suffering from, a most devastating explosion. As you know, our parish has been asked to help "adopt" some families in Lebanon and you can help. For only $75.00 per month, you can help support one family in Lebanon. Please, during this time of need have compassion on our brothers and sisters in Lebanon and help if you can. We know you have all been very generous and compassionate and yet we ask you once again to ask yourself if you can help in some way to help alleviate their sufferings.
Thank you and God bless you.
The Men’s Club invites all parishioners to join them in the annual church picnic. Although we were not able to have one in 2020, it is back in full force in 2021. They will provide chicken, hot dogs, buns, beans and beverages. If you would like to bring a dish or dessert to share it is appreciated but not required. Tables and chairs will be set up outside where we can enjoy the weather and each other’s company. All are welcome. Thank you, Men’s Club!!!
