Did you know that during the Mass we unite our own needs and sufferings to the sacrifice of Christ? Find out why the Church considers you a priestly person.
 
St. Augustine once said, "Be what you see, receive what you are." This week at From Mass to Mission come and learn how receiving the Body and Blood of Christ changes you to become more like Christ!
Come to SKD this Sunday & Wednesday to reflect more on the Liturgy of the Eucharist at Mass and how Christ is present to us.

Feed My Starving Children M&M Tubes
Feed My Starving Children does not get their food ingredients donated, they need to pay for all of. One of the ways they help raise funds for the ingredients is with their M&M tubes. The tubes sell for $1.00. After you enjoy the M&M's you fill the tube with quarters. We have a basket in the back of the Worship Space with M&M tubes. Take as many tubes as you would like, drop a dollar for each tube in the basket. When you fill the tube with quarters, you can drop it of at the parish office, put it in the collection basket or give it to a staff member. We will take the filled M&M tubes to our anniversary volunteer shift January 28.

Hello, SKD,
We are starting to plan for our annual trip to St. Mary's Mission in Red Lake, MN.  The dates are June 19-23, 2017.  You can stay the entire week or the days that work out for you. The children are happy to have us for as long as we can stay.  We will be working with kids in the school grades K-6 as well as the elderly in the nursing home. We will learn about the Ojibwe tribe and celebrate mass with Fr. Jerry.  Please seriously think about coming on this trip to connect with our sister parish.  It is a life changing experience. Thank you.
Please contact either Deacon Randy 763 400 7203 Randy @sjtw.net or Vivian Jeffrey 612 741 4422 vwjeffrey@msn.com for further information.

Using Scrip is Easy . . . and it Helps SKD
All of us do some shopping. Why not do it with Scrip cards? Many of the places we shop have scrip cards available. There are even hotels, airlines, cruises and car rental cards available for your travels. You can order your cards at the Scrip Table after our 4:30 mass and between our 9:00 and 11:00 masses. Cards are ordered each week and are available for pick up the following weekend. Shopping with scrip does not cost you anything extra. You simply pay the face value for the scrip card. SKD purchases he cards at a discount and that is how the parish can generate a little extra revenue to support our ministries. We do stock cards for some local merchants - Coborn's, County Market, Cub, Bill's and Green Valley Nursery. You can also set up an online account and get electronic scrip cards instantly or reload scrip cards you purchased earlier. If you have any questions or want to know more about how you can use scrip and benefit the parish, stop by the Scrip Table in the hospitality room.
