P H J K L Kayla and I have been parishioners at HS for over five years now. We both came to Fargo for college, got jobs here and have stayed ever since. Fargo is halfway between our hometowns (she's from western ND and I'm from northern MN), so it made a lot of sense. We have four beautiful and healthy daughters (12, 9, 5 & 3) that keep us on our toes, and we've got #5 on the way! We are an active family and we keep busy with: Catholic School, Dance, Basketball, Family Movies, Playing Cards, Roller blading, bike riding, bonfires, boating and tripping to lake country in summer whenever possible, ice skating, & generally getting outdoors whenever possible!! That's the secret to enjoying life up here; don't let the cold keep you stuck indoors! Wool socks, hats, fleece bottoms and sweaters go a long way to making life better up here- the Norwegians have a philosophy of "Hygge" which loosely translates to "cozy". If you can feel warm and cozy, even outside, that's the best!! Kayla and I see God's work in our lives and our family all the time!! Three years ago, we both took a huge leap of faith when Kayla went back to college to obtain her Master's Degree in Nursing (NP) and I left a good career at an A&E firm in town to start my own firm with a couple of friends. We Joe, Kayla, Ava, Elise, Brielle & Jocelyn learned A LOT about Trusting in God for everything, and we are still learning! We strive to walk in the path God has for us, going to Mass and confession regularly, praying with our kids most every day, and keeping open to how God wants to grow our own personal faith in Him and His will for us. -submitted by Joe Lorsung STEWARDSHIP OF TREASURE Weekend of May 1-2 YTD Budget Fiscal YTD Envelopes $20,526.00 $780,083.29 $765,069.75 Children $10.50 $239.29 $916.67 Cash Plate $448.13 $23,290.45 $33,916.67 Total $20,984.63 $803,613.03 $799,903.09 Monthly Total $20,984.63 Monthly Budget $68,263.91 % of Budget 30.74% Thank you for your generosity.

Our mission is to invite, form, and equip missionary disciples of Jesus Christ. CHARISMS We find fulfilment in loving others. Charisms are those special gifts given to us at Baptism to build up the Body of Christ. Here is how it works: 1. You are invited to get involved. Charisms are graces that come when we serve others. 2. The discernment begins by taking a Charism s workshop. You are taught how to see God working through you. The goal is to have each person 3. Then your ready to enjoy & can help others discern theirs.

Stewardship Moment This is my commandment: love one another as I love you. No one has greater love than this, to lay down one s life for one s friends - John 15:12-13 Do you love Jesus? Do you consider Him your friend? Jesus says that if we love Him we would be willing to offer whatever we have to Him, not because we want praise and glory, but simply because we love Him. Does your giving seem mechanical out of obligation or do you share freely out of love?
