IT'S NEVER TOO EARLY.
 to think FALL FESTIVAL!
September 15

  What better time than now to think about what you can do for the Fall Festival. Things that can be done now are:
  Bring items for the Flea Market to the garage behind the Rectory Monday thru Friday between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.
  Make things for the Fancy Booth - theme baskets, crochet, knit, carve, paint, holiday ornaments, etc.
  Start collecting (searching) for donations of "mystery" gifts for people of all ages for the Parcel Post Booth. Useable items for this booth are needed. Mark the bag "Parcel Post" and bring them to the Rectory.
Think of where you would like to volunteer your time to work and volunteer. We always need lots of volunteers in all areas.
If you have any questions call the Rectory weekdays at 612-789-7238.

LITTLE SISTERS OF THE POOR at 330 South Exchange Street South in St. Paul will hold their Summer Festival on Saturday, June 22nd and Sunday, June 23rd from 12:00 noon to 6:00 p.m. A Spaghetti Dinner will be served. $6.00 for adults and $3.00 for children.

Again this year the proceeds from the festival will be used to help cover the day to day operations of our home.

  A SUMMER BLESSING
 Walk along beside me, Jesus,
as I begin the months of summer.
As I work, play, enjoy family time
and your friendship, may I hear Your
voice within me, guiding me toward
all that is right and good.
Give me faith in Your presence,
knowing that You walk beside me
in everything I do

Gracious and loving Jesus,
thank You for the gift of summer.
May the warmth of its sun and the
beauty of its light remind me daily
of your love for me.
Amen.

BRAIN STORM
You've got a headache. Let's see now, what could have caused it? Maybe you were hunched over a desk all day, or maybe it was the ride home from soccer practice with the kids in back arguing over who gets the last cheese crunchie. You have what is called a tension headache, also known as muscular contraction headache and it is estimated to account for 90 percent of all headaches. Here are a few tips to help treat and prevent tension headaches:

  Massage: Having someone massage your head, neck and shoulders can help relax tense muscles.
  Warmth: Heat can do wonders to give you relief. Try a warm shower or a heating pad.
  Be aware of how you hold your head when you're driving, working, etc. Make sure you change position every so often and stretch your neck and arm muscles.
  Relax! Find a comfortable place to sit or lie down. Relax all your muscles and take deep regular breaths. Imagine the tension flowing from your body.
      This is not medical advice. Always consult your doctor first.
