Stewardship Thoughts
May 24, 2015 - Pentecost Sunday
"There are different kinds of spiritual gifts but the
same Spirit; there are different forms of service but
the same Lord; there are different workings but the
same God who produces all of them in everyone." 1 Corinthians 12:4-6
By giving each of us different gifts, God made sure
that His Church would have the right combination
of time, talent and treasure that was needed to do
His work. However, if one of us does not utilize
our gifts, God's plan goes unfulfilled. The gifts of
all are welcomed and needed! Let's not leave God's
work undone.

Care & Share 2015

May 23 & 24

It is almost unheard of these days to have less than 2

cents of every dollar you give go directly to the charitable cause you trying to help. Thats something special about Care and Share! A little more than 98 cents
of each dollar donated to Care and Share goes directly to supporting our diocesan-wide Catholic ministries, including administrative support for our parishes, when needed.

Prayer for a Holy Church and Priests

O my Jesus, I beg You on behalf of the whole
Church: Grant it love and the light of Your Spirit
and give power to the words of priests
so that hardened hearts might be brought to

Easter Cleaning went well, thanks were extended to

chairperson Becky Anderson and all the band members who assisted. The flooring project for the kitchen, meeting room and serving area in the basement
have been put on hold until all funds are raised. CoChair Mary Lundstrom reported the KCs are willing
to assist and we hope to have a bakeless bake sale
in June to raise the additional $1400.
PCCW will not hold regular meetings during the
summer and encourage band members and others to
contact CoChairs Toni Ziegler and Mary Lundstrom

duties and special events.

repentance and return to You, O Lord.

Lord, give us holy priests; You Yourself maintain
them in holiness. O Divine and Great High Priest,
may the power of Your mercy accompany them
everywhere and protect them from the devil's traps
and snares which are continually being set for the
souls of priests. May the power of Your mercy, O
Lord, shatter and bring to naught
all that might tarnish the sanctity of priests,
for You can do all things. I ask You, Jesus,
for a special blessing and for light for the priests
before whom will make my confessions
throughout my lifetime. Amen

Youth & Young Adult Ministry

Youth and Young Adults are the future of our
Church in this diocese! The Catholic Foundation of
Eastern Montana is currently raising funds to launch
a new, dedicated diocesan-wide ministry for Youth
and Young Adults. This is a deeply-felt void in our
diocese and one that many people are asking to see
filled. Because of the charitable gifts received to
date, our diocese is currently interviewing candidates
to fill the role of a dynamic, new director. None of
this would be possible without the generosity of
anonymous donors who offered a challenge to match
up to $100,000 from gifts given by people throughout our diocese. Will you help us meet this challenge?
All gifts help! Currently, we have raised $52,000 toward our $100,000 goal. To make a gift that will be
matched, simply send to the Catholic Foundation of
Eastern Montana, PO Box 1399, Great Falls, MT
59403-1399 and note that it is for Youth and Young
Adult Ministry. You will receive a tax receipt for
your contribution. You may also designate your gift
to the new Youth and Young Adult Ministry Endowment, if you prefer.
Questions? Please call the Foundation at 800-3329998, ext. 120. God bless you for helping us build a
strong future for God's Church in our diocese!

A Daily Prayer for Priests

Dear Saint Gabriel, your very name recalls your particular devotion to Christ, the Man of Sorrows, and to
Mary, his Afflicted Mother. You died young as a Passionist religious but left to us all an example of a life
of Christ like sacrifice. Intercede for our seminarians
and young religious, who are in desperate need of
your patronage amid today's sensual and selfish
world. Amen.

Mass Intentions
As Catholics, we have a long tradition of having Masses celebrated for those we wish to offer up in prayer.
The Mass is the ultimate form of prayer, and each Mass is celebrated for an intention. We ask $10.00 per
mass intention.
Please consider having Masses celebrated for family and friends on special occasions and anniversaries, as
well as those who are in need of prayers. Masses are also encouraged in memory of those loved ones who
have died, especially on the anniversaries of their deaths. Contact Fr. Cory for more information!
