St. Paul VI's Feast Day is May 29.

May 29 is the day Catholics commemorate St. Paul VI, celebrating his priestly ordination, his papal ministry, and his enduring example of holiness and service to the Church. 

St. Paul VI, born Giovanni Battista Enrico Antonio Maria Montini on September 26, 1897, in Concesio, Italy, served as Pope from June 21, 1963, until his death on August 6, 1978. His feast day is observed on May 29, the anniversary of his priestly ordination in 1920, rather than the date of his death, which coincides with the Feast of the Transfiguration of the Lord. This date was chosen to honor his lifelong dedication to the priesthood and his exemplary Christian holiness.

St. Paul VI is remembered for concluding the Second Vatican Council, promoting liturgical reform, ecumenical dialogue, and the global proclamation of the Gospel. He was also the first Pope to travel extensively, visiting all five continents, and he emphasized the call to holiness in everyday Christian life. His feast day serves as a reminder of his dedication to the Church and his efforts to guide it through a period of significant renewal and modernization​

Dear Parishioners,
As you may have heard, our parish (including St. Mary School and St. Paul VI Religious Education) has partnered with Hallow, the #1 Catholic prayer platform to provide Hallow as a resource to strengthen both the mental and spiritual health of the parish community.
​
Hallow contains over 10,000 audio-guided prayers spanning from quick minute meditations to entire holy hours, dozens of music albums and ‘praylists,’ and everything in between. The app is specifically designed to offer something for everyone.

Through this partnership, you have the option to create an account to access everything on the platform, including hundreds of prayers specifically designed for Kids, Teens, and Families. Pray along on evenings and weekends!  hallow.com/pray

Your help is urgently needed! Training and formation provided!

Ministers of Care
Many in our St. Paul VI Family are waiting for someone to bring them the comfort and grace of the Holy Eucharist. Without volunteers, some of our most vulnerable family members may feel isolated and alone. Please consider becoming a part of this important ministry, and make a real, immediate difference in someone's life!

Extraordinary Ministers of the Eucharist
We often are scrambling at Mass finding people to help us at Communion. We need additional Extraordinary Ministers of the Eucharist at all of our Masses. Help us bring Jesus to those in our parish family!

Lectors 
The Word of God is such an important part of our Mass, and with the summer months coming it is often difficult to make sure all of our Masses are covered. Please consider if you are being called to proclaim the Word of God to the people of our parish family.

If you are interested in any of these roles or have questions, please reach out to the parish office at: stpaulviinfo@stpaulviparish.

You can also sign up for any of the trainings and formation that is coming up.
