700 Cans for Fr. Andrzej's Birthday
Our parish collected OVER 700 cans of food on Father’s birthday weekend! The goal of “70 for 70” (to donate 70 cans of food in one weekend to honor Father Andrzej’s 70th birthday) was a smashing success! This “70 for 70” food drive was a separate collection for the Center of Hope Food Pantry immediately following the 9/11 Bountiful Community Day of Service Food Drive. Challenged with two large back-to-back food drives our Parish once again showed up in strength and humble generosity! THANK YOU SAINT OLAF PARISH!!
Final 9/11 Bountiful Community Day of Service Food Drive count: 65,000 pounds of food!
Blessing Bouquet
As part of our community observance of Respect Life Month, we are inviting parishioners to participate in a Blessing Bouquet. In the gathering space you will find a basket of artificial roses and a vase. Different colors of roses represent different concerns related to pregnancy, pregnancy loss, adoption, and other concerns. Parishioners are invited to select a rose, write a note (if they'd like) on the prayer card, and then put the rose in the vase. We will leave the vase out during the month of October and ask that the parish pray for all the intentions represented by the roses. Additional details can be found next to the display.
SEEKING 15 GODPARENTS and SPONSORS
for the large number of OCIA Inquirers and Candidates journeying towards sacramental unity with the Church. The Order of Christian Initiation is designed for adults, who upon hearing the proclamation of the mystery of Christ as the Holy Spirit opens their hearts, consciously and freely seek the living God and undertake the journey of faith and conversion. A Godparent serves the crucial role of assisting as a Catholic witness in faith, fellowship and accompaniment. This call goes out to all practicing Catholics, confirmed and in good standing with the Church who attend Mass regularly, lead a life of faith that reflects the teachings of the Church. Godparents are responsible for providing guidance and support after baptism and throughout the catechumen's life. Please contact Kevin or Evan if you are interested in supporting this ministry: stolafocia@gmail.com

Our Mission
PRAYER TO MAKE A “SPIRITUAL COMMUNION”
Saint Teresa of Avila wrote: “When you cannot receive Communion and cannot attend Mass, you can make a spiritual communion, which is a most beneficial practice; by it the love of God will be greatly impressed on you.”
My Jesus,
I believe that you are present
in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love you above all things,
and I desire to receive you into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment
receive you sacramentally,
please come spiritually into my heart.
I embrace you now
as if you were already there
and I unite myself wholly to you.
Never permit me
to be separated from you.
Amen
