DIOCESAN PRAYER FOR VOCATIONS
God our Father, we thank you for calling men and women from the Diocese of Owensboro to serve in your Son's kingdom as priests, deacons and religious. We pray that you continue to inspire young men and women to respond courageously to your call and give themselves generously to the Church in service of the Gospel. Pour out your Holy Spirit upon our parishes, schools, and families and assist us in building a culture of vocations in which many will hear your call to serve your people. Help us to remain faithful to the call of the Gospel as we support and encourage vocations of sacrificial love in our youth. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen
Mary, Mother of the Church, pray for us!

KINDNESS CAMPAIGN
Sign up to share a little kindness. We need to spread a little kindness and joy to make our world a better place. The Ursuline Sisters of Mount St. Joseph, following the teachings of St. Angela Merici, have responded to the needs of the world for over 400 years - spreading kindness. We invite you to follow their example through a Kindness Campaign. You may know a person who is homebound, ill or low-spirited, or you may wish to be kind to a local or government official. For $50, we will send one custom card a month for the next year to the person of your choice with words of inspiration and encouragement. You are both spreading kindness and helping the Ursuline Sisters continue their ministry. Deadline for cards to start in June is May 15th.
When you register your Kroger Plus Card online or by phone, you can then select Precious Blood as the organization of your choice. Every time you use your Kroger Plus Card, Kroger will give a portion of your purchase back to Precious Blood. This is a wonderful way for you to help generate revenues that will enable Precious Blood to meet our budgeted expenses for the year. If you do not have a Kroger Plus Card, please ask for one at the customer service desk at any Kroger.
NEW participants can sign up on www.krogers.com/communityrewards and click on "Create an Account" button and have your Kroger Plus Card handy. Sign up for a Kroger Rewards Account by entering zip code, clicking on favorite store, entering your email address and creating a password, agreeing to the terms and conditions. You will then get an email message from Kroger and you will know your online account is set up. Go back to www.kroger.com/communityrewards and click on "Enroll Now" button. Click on "Edit Kroger Community Rewards" information and input your Kroger Plus card number -- it is the number on the back of your card. Update or confirm the rest of your account information on the Account Summary page including under Community Rewards. There you will click the "Enroll" button and enter your name and address and hit the "Save" button. Now enter NPO number US778 or select Precious Blood Church from the list and click confirm and click the "Enroll" button. Then you can sign out.
Or call 1-800-KROGERS, option 3 for assistance in enrolling the first time if needed. Be prepared to have your Kroger Card number (on your card or key tag), your telephone number or Alternate ID. When asked, tell the service representative you would like to support Precious Blood Church. Our identification number is US778.
Thank you for linking your Kroger Plus Card to Precious Blood Parish
