St. Vincent de Paul Blessed Sacrament

+ Read Dc. Tom’s Blog post about a gesture of kindness brightening a sorrowful day.

+ Livestream of the funeral of Rev. Thomas Hobbes.

+ Generosity is the goal! The Super Bowl is Sunday, and we will once again be collecting for the “Souper Bowl of Caring,” as so many are in need this winter. Donations will be collected at safe and sanitary stations over the weekend February 6/7 to benefit our Loaves & Fishes Food Pantry.

+ Consecration of the Diocese of Syracuse to St. Joseph:
Beginning on February 15, and continuing for 33 days, the consecration will culminate in a diocesan celebration of the Feast of St. Joseph at the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception at noon on March 19. Honoring both the Year of St. Joseph and the Year of Vocations, we invoke the intercession of St. Joseph as patron of the Universal Church, and bring our diocesan family under his care and protection. The consecration is an opportunity to recommit ourselves to our baptismal calling, reminiscent of Joseph rising from a dream-filled sleep with renewed resolution to take Mary as his wife.

+ TONIGHT! It’s time to THRIVE! Plan to join us for an evening of worship and inspiration this evening. We will safely gather at 7:00-8:00 p.m. at St. Vincent de Paul Blessed Sacrament Church, Vestal. Or, plan to watch the livestream on Thrive Ministries’ Facebook page. February’s theme will be: “Called, Gifted, Sent.” Let’s celebrate Vocations.
