A Message From Our Pastor St. Louis Family,
The Risen Lord Jesus revealed the glory of his resurrection to his disciples
gradually and over a period of time. Even after the apostles saw the empty tomb
and heard the reports of Jesus' appearance to the women, they were still weak in
faith and fearful of being arrested by the Jewish authorities. When Jesus appeared
to them he offered proof of his resurrection by showing them the wounds of his
passion, his pierced hands and side. He calmed their fears and brought them
peace, the peace which reconciles sinners and makes one a friend of God.
Jesus did something which only love and trust can do. He commissioned his weak
and timid apostles to carry the gospel to the ends of the earth. This sending out of
the disciples is parallel to the sending out of Jesus by his Father. Jesus fulfilled his
mission through his perfect love and perfect obedience to the will of his Father. He
called his disciples, and he calls us to do the same. Just as he gave his first
disciples the gift of the Holy Spirit, so he breathes on each of us the same Holy
Spirit who equips us with new life, power, joy, and courage to live each day as
followers of the Risen Lord.
Congratulations to all of our 1st Communicants!
Peace,
Fr. Randy

F e s t i v a l N o t e s We are in need of a few Booth Chairpersons to help make our festival a success.
The festival is only 5 months away! If you are able to help, please call Ron Weigel
934-4241 or Whitey Weberding 934-4929.
Basket Booth We have several people willing to help with phone calls for baskets, making bas-
kets, etc. We need someone to be in charge of running the booth. The Basket
Booth is a big money maker for our festival.
Carnival Games Once again, we have several people willing to help, but we need a person to be in
charge of the Carnival Games area.
New Bowling Game Paul Fullenkamp has built a replica bowling lane with a ball return, pin setter guide,
pins and a golf ball for a bowling ball! This will be used at this new booth for kids. It
looks great and kids will love this game.
This item can also be bid on in the Beat the Bid Booth and at the end of the day will
go home with the highest bidder! THANK YOU PAUL for thinking of our festival!
We are also in need of someone to chair this booth.
