You Ought to be in Pictures

And, you will be, but you first have to sign up for a photo shoot for St. John's new parish pictorial directory!
· Go to St. John's website, www.stjohnnb.com, click on the Photo Appointment link on the homepage, and follow the simple instructions; appointment confirmed by e-mail.
· Or, call Olin Mills Customer Service at 1-800-845-1157, and select Option 6.
· Make an appointment that is convenient for you between Tuesday, August 14, and Saturday, September 8.
· You are under no obligation to purchase anything! Whether you buy any pictures or not, you will receive a free 8" x 10" color photograph mailed to your home, and you will receive a free directory when it is available (probably in November).
· Pictures will be taken in the Youth Room. Whether you sit for a photo shoot or not, names (head of household or husband & wife), home addresses, and home telephone numbers will be listed in back of our new directory. If you do not want to be listed, you must call RuthAnne at (651) 633-8333, ext. 1233. See you soon!

The Annual Baby Bush Campaign supplies baby items to parents and their infants seeking assistance through Birthright and North Side Life Care Center. St. John's parishioners are always very generous in responding to this Social Mission. Your donations help parents care for precious new lives.
As of Saturday, July 14, donation request cards are available from the Baby Bush located in St. Paul Plaza. Pick out a donation request card (or cards) for a needed item from the Baby Bush. The most requested items are diapers and formula.
Birthright and North Side Life Care Center also welcome gift cards that can be used to purchase items needed by families from stores like Target, Wal-Mart, Cub Foods, or Babies "R" Us. Marked boxes will be available near the Harvest Table in St. Paul Plaza for dropping off your gifts through Sunday, August 5.
If you have any questions, monetary donations, or other donations after Sunday, August 5, please call Judy Quayle at St. John's Parish Office, (651) 633-8333, ext. 1229. It's never too late to make a difference!
Thank you and God bless you. Your generosity makes a big difference to the least among us. We invite you to prayerfully consider this opportunity to help the most vulnerable and innocent of God's children as Jesus Christ instructed us in St. Matthew's Gospel 25:40...
"Whatever you do for these, the least of My brethren,
you do unto Me."
