The Saint Vincent de Paul in Roseville, feeds in excess of 120 nutritious meals each day to folks in need. As with other programs, their program has been the victim of financial cuts and it is becoming increasingly more difficult to continue. 

Through the graciousness of Sierra College, generosity of a variety of restaurants, assistance of our church youth, and countless other volunteers, there will be a event on November 13th to benefit SVdP, “Buy a Bowl, Feed a Soul.”  Hand thrown pottery bowls will be available for you to purchase for a $20 donation. You will then be able to partake of soup(in your new bowl), salad, bread, and a beverage. Desserts will be sold separately. 100% of the proceeds from this event will go directly to our local SVdP in the form of food to stock their kitchen freezers and cupboards.

On Saturday, October 8, we will host a Pancake Breakfast in support of the Soldiers Project, a non profit that serves veterans, specifically those who have served in either Iraq or Afghanistan as well as their families.  We are anticipating serving some 500 people this morning!  Offer your time and talent in support of our soldiers, veterans and their families or simply join us for a great breakfast!

On Saturday, October 8, we will host a Pancake Breakfast in support of the Soldiers Project, a non profit that serves veterans, specifically those who have served in either Iraq or Afghanistan as well as their families.  This breakfast, which will begin at 8am, will be preceded by the raising of the American Flag on our newly installed flagpole.  At 7:30am, we will gather by the Memorial Rose Garden with a Chaplain and Color Guard provided by the 115th RSG of the Army National Guard, to raise our flag which was flown over the US Capitol for our Parish on September 1. We will also unveil a plaque, which reads:

“For our American Nation, the President, our Armed Forces, and all in public service, let us pray…” Raised & Dedicated in honor of our soldiers and veterans on October 8, 2011

Join us as we raise our American flag, pray for our soldiers, thank our veterans, and support the men and women of our Armed Forces who have served in Iraq and Afghanistan, as well as their families.

The fall 40 Days for Life begins September 28th in hundreds of cities across the nation and around the world! This life-saving, peaceful, prayerful ministry is endorsed by Bishop Soto and all Catholics are encouraged to participate!  Our fall vigil will be at the public sidewalk in front of the abortion businesses at 1750 Wright Street, near the corner of Wright Street and Alta Arden.  Christians will be praying there and offering assistance to women, Monday-Saturday, 7:00 am to 7:00 pm, from September 28th to November 6th.  By God’s grace and through the power of prayer, over 4,300 women have changed their mind, choosing LIFE for their children, rather than have their abortion, due to people just like you praying at the Sidewalk!  Please join us in this life-saving, compassionate ministry!  Call Wynette at 916-955-1577 or see http://www.40daysforlife.com/sacramento for more information.
