VOL Parish Weekly Bulletin April 16, 2017 | Page 2

April 16, 2017 Easter Sunday of the Resurrection of the Lord 2 We need YOUR help! Office Closed It doesn't matter how big or how small, any time you can give will be a tremendous help to the men and women who take on this project each year. Volunteering helps our parish grow stronger, and in giving that time you could actually get something back...friendship, pride and a sense of accomplishment. And, you'll also be showing your children & grandchildren how to be responsible and caring adults. Do you want to know why we get so excited about this festival, and why we work so hard to make it better each year? Well, that's a question that can only be answered by volunteering. So, do your part...sign up today and help make V.O.L. a better place for our children & grandchildren. The Pastoral Center will be closed Friday, April 14th & Monday, April 17th for the Easter Holidays. The office will reopen on Tuesday, April 18th @ 8a.m. Eucharistic Adoration Thursday, April 20th Christ suffer ed and died for Y OU. His love for you is unfathomable. It’s time to take time for Him. The Blessed Sacrament will be exposed at the end of the 7 a.m. Mass on the fourth Thursday of the month, and benediction and reposition will take place at Midnight on that same day. Substance Abuse Ministry Meeting April 25th Meeting will be held upstairs in the Pastoral Center. The Substance Abuse Ministry (SAM) offers a safe, confidential place for people touched by addiction to share their personal experiences with others. The ministry is open to both those afflicted with or affected by substance addiction. SAM provides general educational information about addiction through professionals in this field and is open to people of all faiths. The group does not provide professional diagnosis, therapy, counseling or treatment, but provides a list of referrals of local addiction facilities and professionals. For more info contact Deacon Jerry Labadot at 495-5820. Do we really believe that we can become the person God has created us to become? Do we believe that we can do it by ourselves? If you find that you might need some help please come to our SAM meeting and see if we can do it together. God loves you just the way that you are but he loves you too much too leave you that way. @volparish /visitationofourlady /volparish @volparish
