NEW PARISH PICTURE DIRECTORY COMING!!
It has been 10 years since the last directory was compiled and some of us have
changed in 10 years! Lifetouch (the photo-directory company) will be in Brooks
April 14th and in Red Lake Falls April 15th-18th. Regardless of which parish you
are registered with, you can sign up for your photo to be taken at either Red Lake
Falls or Brooks - whichever site, date and time works best for you.
It costs you nothing - but in return the company prints a photo directory for us at
no cost! But you will be given a free 8' x 10" color portrait just for sitting for the
directory photo. Of course, you will have the opportunity to purchase from the com-
pany any photo package of your choosing, should you wish to. Or you are free to
decline any purchase at all. Seniors ( 60+) and active or retired military are given a
20% discount on any photo package chosen.
There are three different ways to reserve your day and time for the 10 minute
photo shoot: (1) Online, (2) on-site and (3) by phone. Starting February 18th you
can schedule your appointment online. There will be a link posted on our webpage
for you to click, and it will bring you to the scheduling site. This site will be unavail-
able on the weekends on which we are doing on-site scheduling. We will have peo-
ple before and after Masses on the weekends in the gathering spaces of both parishes
ready to manually sign you up. On-site scheduling will begin the weekend of Febru-
ary 29-March 1st. Or you may choose to phone in your scheduling; seek answers to
questions; or alter your originally scheduled day and time. We'll provide that phone
number on the posters we will display as well as in our bulletin and on our webpage.
Please, PLEASE, P L E A S E plan on having your picture taken for our direc-
tory. It really does serve our parish community well to have an accurate and thor-
ough directory. If you need assistance scheduling - I'll help you. If you need some-
one to bring you to and from the session - I'll help you. But please know - I want the
photo directory/record of our parish family as complete as it can be!!
Every week from now until the photo shoot the bulletin will have some informa-
tion for you to guide us to the photo shoot days.
Blessings, all. Fr. Bob

Word of Life “Prayer is the foundation of all that we do in defense of human life. Our efforts—whether educational, pastoral, or legislative—will be less than fully fruitful if we do not change hearts and if we do not ourselves overcome our own spiritual blindness. Only with prayer—prayer that storms the heavens for justice and mercy, prayer that cleanses our hearts and our souls—will the culture of death that surrounds us today be replaced with a culture of life.” “Pastoral Plan for Pro-Life Activities” United States Con-ference of Catholic Bishops
