YX will be back NEXT THURSDAY, May 9 at 7:30! Our weekly youth event for high school students has another great night coming up

after the week off. If you've never come before, we hope you can make it out. If it's your first time, feel free to bring a friend!

PURITY RALLY: A day full of fun, food, fellowship, awesome games, praise and worship, Mass with Bishop Bolen, Eucharistic Adoration,

and amazing talks! The Rally goes from 9:00am-9:00pm at Our Lady of Lourdes Parish on May 11, for ages 10 to adults! Lunch and supper

are provided. Registration is $45/person or $200/family.

BLACKSTRAP YOUTH CAMP: Camp dates for 2013 are July 7 - 12, 14 - 19, 21 - 26, July 28 - Aug. 2 and August 4 - 9. Camp fees are $210,

sored by the Saskatoon Knights of Columbus, gives youth aged 8 to 13 the opportunity to experience God through nature and fellowship

with other young people.

Sacraments of Confirmation/First Communion ~ The Celebration Mass will be held at 7:00 pm on Wednesday, May 1 with Bishop Bolen. All are invited to come to the celebration and the reception after the Mass. Please keep all of those who will be celebrating these sacraments in your prayers.

However, volunteers (ages 14 and up) are needed to lead the groups of children around to the activity stations. Also, adults are needed to facilitate the five stations ie. snacks, crafts, games and more. If you are available, please contact Shirley at the parish. Please check your summer schedule and come out to "disciple" to the children.

Stewardship Note!

If you and/or your family are interested in bringing up the gifts (bread and wine) during the weekend masses, please ap-proach the welcomers at the individual masses and let them know. Sometimes, it is difficult for the welcomers to know if you are willing to serve in this way. Many have commented on how meaningful it is to be able to serve in bringing up the gifts, either as a group of people or a family. Secondly, a thank you to all of those who do "little things", that make St. Philip the awesome parish it is! For example, those who leave prime parking places for others instead of taking them themselves, those who "pick up" after others such items as pieces of paper that fall on the floor or hymn books that end up out of place etc,. and those who put on a pot of coffee in the morning for others to enjoy! God bless you!
