World Day of Prayer for Vocations
Good Shepherd Sunday
April 25, 2021
World Day of Prayer will be observed on Sunday, April 25, 2021 also known as "Good Shepherd Sunday." The purpose of this day is to publicly fulfill the Lord's instruction to, "Pray the Lord of the harvest to send laborers into his harvest" (Mt 9:38; Lk 10:2). Please pray that young men and women hear and respond generously to the Lord's call to the priesthood, diaconate, religious life, societies of apostolic life or secular institutes. Resources for promoting vocations can be found on the USCCB website.
2021 marks the 58th Anniversary of the World Day of Prayer for Vocations
Opportunity to Help with Dinner
Our own “good shepherd”, Father Johnson, is taking care of some of his “sheep” (the Young Men’s discernment group) this Sunday, April 25, with a dinner.
If anyone would like to sign up to bring a dessert, veggie tray or beverages for 15, please contact Mary Hagen at mbbhagen@gmail.com

Our traveling chalice will begin to "travel" to different homes again in an every other week rotation.
