† We ask that you offer a prayer for those who have died, especially for/oremos por

Joseph Peek, Anjanie Lorick, William Novak, David Suarez, and Paul Grace.
Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them.
May their souls and the souls of all the faithful departed,
through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

Many of the people seeking help from St. Vincent DePaul have children in their
home. These children are living on the edge due to the problems their parents or
guardians are having. So, they may be hungry, poorly clothed, without proper heating
or cooling, or facing eviction.
This is a burden those children should not have to face, and therefore the Vincentian
Case Worker normally takes great care to assure that support is provided in a hurry.
A recent situation with a single Father in Decatur is a good example.
The Father has full custody of his son, who is only eight years old. The Father lost
his job a few weeks prior, but the few weeks between jobs resulted in having no money for the next month’s rent. Families like this typically do not have any savings, and
live paycheck to paycheck.
The Father did find a new job, so it’s likely they will be secure going forward. Our
Vincentian case worker team met with the Father, documented the income and expenses, and worked with the landlord to forgive the $200 eviction dispossessory fees
and stop the process.
Due to the situation and not wanting the Father and Son to be evicted, the Vincentians
decided to make a request above our normal guidelines so they could remain in their
home without fear of eviction.
Thanks to our generous IHM parishioners, St. Vincent DePaul was able to keep that
eight year old boy in his home.
If a parishioner needs help, they can call 678-892-6163.

Gifts of Remainders of Estates: When one passes away, ther e is
usually an estate sale to sell assets that no one in the family wanted.
Did you know you can leave all remaining assets to The Catholic
Foundation of North Georgia for the benefit of the parish endowment
fund? The Foundation will handle the estate sale and place the proceeds of the sale into the parish endowment fund. For information
on how to include this idea in your will, please contact: Juliet Greco
at The Catholic Foundation of North Georgia: [email protected] or

parked in the upper lot and Vincentians will
be there to accept your donations. Your
generosity in helping us to fulfill our mission
to feed the hungry as always is greatly appreciated.

whole desserts for sale for $15. We will accept checks and cash.
We need your help! Please sign up to bake a dessert (or two!) and drop them off
in the narthex before the 4:00 p.m. Mass on Saturday (if you can't bring them
Saturday, just bring them with you to mass). Go to http://tiny.cc/ihmbakesale to

Last year we raised nearly $1000 at the bake sale! This year we're hoping to
raise even more! The gift of your baked goods and time to sell the items will be
a great help for us to reach our $2000 pledge.
SUMMER OFFERTORY
Saturday, July 23
In celebration of the feastday of St. Charbel Maklouf,
Monsignor Al invites all lovers of Lebanese food to a
potluck supper on Saturday, July 23, 5:30-7:30 p.m. in
the Lower Level of the church. You don’t need to be
Lebanese (or half-Lebanese like Monsignor!) to attend! If you don’t know how to cook kibbeh, koosa
mahshi, fatayer, hummus, baba ghanoush, tabbouleh,
baklava or ma’amoul, you can just order out from a
restaurant, like Monsignor will be doing! Bring plenty
to share. (Monsignor has a plan for the leftovers!)
Fresh pita and family-friendly beverages will be provided. RSVP with number
attending and your planned dish to Jayna Hoffacker at 404-636-1418, ext. 226
or [email protected].
IHM wishes you safe travels! Enjoy your trips
and we look forward to seeing you when you
return! If you have not already done so, please
consider signing up for electronic giving at
www.ihmatlanta.org. It’s fast, it’s simple, and
it really helps us keep the lights on and
programs going during the summer months.
For those members in town for part or all of
the summer, remember to check out our website for summer activities!
