Every year, Visitation of Our Lady Parish has a 3-week
Stewardship Campaign. The purpose of the campaign is to
teach good stewardship; that is, living a life of
accountability and responsibility for our God-given gifts of
prayer, ministry, and sacrificial giving. This year, VOL will
incorporate our Stewardship Campaign with honoring first
responders.
What we’re doing:
Week 1 (Feb. 21) ~ Praying for our First Responders
Week 2 (Feb. 28) ~ Serving our First Responders
Week 3 (March 6) ~ Supporting our First Responders
What we’ll need:
Cooks, photographers, servers, decorators, donation
organizers, Mass organizers, telephone callers, clean up
crew, and much more!
If you’d like to help:
Please call Christie Bourg, Director of Ministries
@ 347-2203.

Each month from now on, VOL will place in the last
bulletin of each month the names of our active duty soldiers
so that we can pray for them. By name! Daily!
Please call our Parish Secretary, Kelli, at (347-2203) with
the names of your active duty loved ones. Let us show our
love for them with our prayers.
