Thanks to all our brothers who contributed to our Vocations Raffle Drive. We have raised over $ 4,300 so far in support of our seminarian scholarships. Our goal is to raise $ 5,000, which will allow us to offer (8) $ 500 scholarships to worthy seminarians. Please let me know if you need additional raffle books. You can mail your donations to me at 188 E. Cedarwood Ct., Palatine IL 60067, or bring your contributions to our next general membership on November 9th. Our raffle drive concludes on Monday, November 23rd.

Please keep our priests, seminarians, and oblates in your prayers. Here is a prayer in support of our men and women called to their vocations:

God our Father, You have chosen Your Son, Jesus Christ, to reveal Yourself to us. You have chosen Your Church to show us Your love through Him. You have chosen your sons and daughters as a sign of that love to Your people. We pray that the Holy Spirit continues to fill them with Your peace and joy as they prepare for their call to life serving Your people. We pray that through their vocations that they may proclaim the wonder of Your faithfulness and love to all through Jesus Christ our Lord!

If you have any questions regarding our drive, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you and God Bless!
