HIGH SCHOOL YOUTH MINISTER OPPORTUNITY St. Bruno and St. Paul Catholic Parishes have a unique opportunity for a High School Youth Minister with some previous youth ministry experience, to continue building on the collaborative ministry already established. These two parishes share a High School Youth Minister who will be responsible for faith-filled 9-12th grade instruction and the evangelization/outreach activities that support it such as retreats, mission trips, and youth group. This is a great opportunity to join a dynamic cross-parish formation team that includes an established core team of devoted volunteers at each of these parishes, all passionate about sharing Jesus Christ and forming disciples. This position is full time with varied hours including evening and weekend work. Candidates should submit their resume AND an archdiocesan application available at www.archmil.org/jobs.htm as soon as possible to Rita Borowski, [email protected] to express their interest for consideration or to seek additional information.
School Supply Collection Reformation Lutheran has served approximately 60 young people through their summer S.A.L.T. (serving and learning together) program. They've participated in the community garden, service opportunities, job shadowing, and educational experiences. Our Human Concerns outreach has provided backpacks for these students, but we need your help filling them. Please bring school supplies to the baskets in the Gathering Space and give these young people a strong start to their school year!
Coming Up: “Fill the Bassinet” baby collection in Sept. Do your rummaging now. Look for sizes 0-3 or 3-6 months clothing, onesies, and sleepers. Especially needed are GIRLS sleepers and onesies. More in the bulletin as the date gets closer.
MARRIED AND HURTING? HELP IS AVAILABLE!

Questions? (414) 502-7685 or [email protected]
I get these emails from Daniel Cellucci because of a Catholic leadership seminar that I have been a part of. I have used his reflections before and received this one in my email today, so I am sharing it with you to ponder in your heart.
Is your heart shattered?
“The Church Fathers teach us that a shattered heart is the most pleasing gift to God. It is the sign that we are conscious of our sins, of the evil we have done, of our wretchedness, and of our need for forgiveness and mercy.” ~Pope Francis
It was an atheist who once told me, “The only way to be absolutely invulnerable is to be absolutely vulnerable.” That thought has stayed with me for years. I’d like to think that I have never had a problem owning a mistake. After all, I’ve had lots of practice, just ask my wife Tricia. However, putting it all out there and giving voice to our faults is only one part of the equation. With my classic and endearing (or so I’d like to believe) self-deprecating humor, I may share chips and dents with those I meet. But, do I lay the all the shattered pieces of my heart at God’s feet, not because I want to be invulnerable, but because I know He is the only one who can truly make me whole? Why do I hide my shattered heart from this invisible, silent, merciful God who loves me? He doesn’t seek for me to be shamed or embarrassed. Better yet, why do I keep thinking he can’t see it? Let’s pray this week for our hearts to be made absolutely invulnerable by making them absolutely vulnerable to God’s love and mercy.
Discerning Insights About Leadership from Daniel J. Cellucci (8/1/16)
~Fr. Chuck
The Day-End Dough-Nation program at Panera Bread shares unsold bread and bakery products with us once/week. We have some faithful angels from St. Paul Parish who pick up the products and distribute them to places like Casa Maria House of Hospitality’s shelter for homeless women and children, St. Ben’s Community Meal and the Milwaukee Rescue Mission. We thank Panera Bread for their assistance in the corporal work of mercy to feed the hungry and we thank our volunteers for picking up and delivering these delicious treats.
PLEASE NOTE: The Adoration Chapel will be closed on Wednesday, August 24th & Thursday, August 25th, weather permitting, due to maintenance. Thank you for your understanding.

We all want a vibrant parish and to see children and teens alive with their faith… for that to happen WE NEED SOMEONE to choose
to step forward in faith to lead children to know and love God.

Lessons and training are provided for you and you'll work with a team. This is a great way to grow in love for Jesus, His Church and the AMAZING children of our parish! Additionally, we are always looking for volunteers to help organize and assemble supplies for each class. Contact Karen at 262-968-2276 or [email protected] to learn more or sign-up to help!

Then, you are qualified to be a high school small group leader. We need faithful mentors to lead or co-lead a group of amaz-ing young men or women. Lessons are video-based so you don't have to "teach," just lead discussion, listen, learn and pray with our teens.

Blessed Art Coming to St. Paul and St. Bruno August 20/21.
Blest Art will be visiting your parish on behalf of the Christian families in Bethlehem, Palestine. Our mission is to support those families in the Holy Land.
For centuries, the Christians in and around Bethlehem have earned a living by carving religious olive wood art to
sell to visiting pilgrims. Fewer pilgrims are journeying to the Holy Land today, making it difficult for those Christians to support their families. As a result, there has been a dramatic rise in Christian emi-gration from the Holy Land. Now, less than 1% of the population in the Holy Land is Christians.
Blest Art Inc. helps the struggling Christian families of Beth-lehem by marketing their artwork in the United States. Due to this work, we help many Christian families to maintain their livelihood and their ancestral homes in the land of our Lord.
When Blest Art visits your parish, we will have hand-carved nativity sets, statues, crosses, rosaries, and many other pieces of beautiful olive wood art. We kindly invite you to visit our display and to consider purchasing a piece of art from the Holy Land. In doing so, you will help support the many families who depend on this form or art for their living. Your purchase will make a difference in the lives of many Christian families.
We gladly accept cash, checks, and all major credit cards. Please note that we do not ask for, nor do we accept, any donations.
Check out their website at www.BlestArt.org.
