From The Pastor: Fr. Paul Shovelain
As we celebrate the Passion of St. John the Baptist this weekend, we reflect upon how our
patron always pointed others to Christ. He boldly told his friends, “Behold the Lamb of
God” and then sent them to follow the Savior of the world. Here at our wonderful parish,
we continue to encourage others to follow after Jesus. We also help others to encounter Je-
sus on a regular basis!
In June we celebrated the Sacraments of Initiation with 9 children ages 5-15. We trained 20 new altar serv-
ers to assist at Mass and help elevate the liturgy. We hosted a Blessed is She retreat with about 200 women
from all over the metro area. We hosted Thursday evening Lectio on the Lawn events all summer to help
our parishioners prepare for the upcoming Sunday’s readings. We had a great Feast Day celebration with
over 250 people coming out for Mass, dinner, and music on St. John the Baptist’s birthday. We celebrated
his birthday all weekend long as we resumed hospitality of weekend Masses.
As the dispensation from Mass was lifted on July 1st and people returned to Mass; we celebrated with patri-
otic music celebrating our independence. We had our largest Vacation Bible School ever, with 60 students
and another 100 in Totus Tuus. They grew in their relationship with God and had a fun time while spending
the week here at SJB. We also collected thousands of diapers and other baby supplies for our Maternity
Closet and the local Crisis Pregnancy Centers. We went to Feed My Starving Children and packed over
20,000 meals!
In August, we sent 70 youth to Extreme Faith Camp where they experienced the transforming love of Jesus
Christ. We also hosted 115 youth who participated in Matt Birk’s Faith and Football Camp. They had
Mass everyday, as well as different prayer experiences and lots of football. We also hosted our Extreme
Faith Camp reunion and gave parishioners and parents the opportunity to hear about the graces received at
camp.
Throughout the summer, many other ministries continued to bring life and joy to our community. The
Knights of Columbus hosted their annual clergy appreciation dinner. The Council of Catholic Women host-
ed an ice cream social. The quilters met regularly to make beautiful quilts to bring comfort to those in need.
Men’s Fellowship continued to meet weekly and provide formation and fellowship. Catholic Watchmen
and devoted hosted their monthly gatherings providing fellowship, formation, and prayer. We also celebrat-
ed 19 baptisms and 2 weddings. We also celebrated the Sacraments of Confession and the Eucharist at least
once every day.
There was no taking a break from our mission to “Bear witness to Jesus Christ who is the Way, the Truth,
and Life: GO. MAKE. TEACH.” We continue to let the bright light of Christ shine in New Brighton and
beyond! I am proud of each of you and your dedication to our parish as we continue to follow the example
of our patron and point others always to Jesus Christ!
As we look to the fall, we plan to focus on our Core Values over the next three months as we ask you to
commit to living them out. September will focus on being “willing to grow.” We invite you to try some-
thing new and sign up to help, at the FallFest, participate in the festival, sign up for a synod small group, or
participate in other opportunities to grow at the parish. October will focus on reliance on prayer, asking
God to help us understand His plan for our lives. We will focus on the Sacraments, as well as adoration,
and other ministries that allow us to be restored to life. November will invite us to live out of a generous
spirit and commit to the various ministries that serve others. We have a lot going on at SJB and it can be
overwhelming at times, but we ask that you prayerfully discern AND commit to living out each of the core
values. By living out the Core Values you will be “Restored to Life” and help others be restored to life as
well!
As the Father loves me, so I also love you!
