Blessed Sacrament 

Catholic Church 

Have you considered the vocation of Deacon in your parish? If you are married or a single man between the ages of 32 and 58, please contact Fr. Tony for an application for the Permanent Diaconate Formation program. Applications are being accepted until June 30, 2021. For more information about deacons and the formation process, contact Deacon John Stierman at 800-876-3546 ext 252 or email him at dbqcpd@dbqarch.org.

Are you downsizing and have things to get rid of? Are you clearing household goods from an estate? Blessed Sacrament parishioners are offering Estate of Grace Sale Services for those willing to donate the proceeds back to Blessed Sacrament parish. At your location, we will set up for a sale, advertise the sale, staff the sale, and dispose of what remains after the sale. If you are interested in discussing or scheduling a sale with us, please call Margaret Klein at 319-429-1907.

Think about the people, organizations, and charities that are most meaningful to you. Make sure your will is written so your intentions are clearly spelled out. Make sure your loved ones also know about these intentions. We pray that you consider Blessed Sacrament in your estate planning. If you would like more information about leaving a legacy gift to Blessed Sacrament, contact Fr. Tony Kruse or the Parish Office at 319-233-6179.

Fulfill a dream of a lifetime through a journey with Fr. Tony. Strengthen your faith and feel closer to God while walking in the footsteps of our Lord, Jesus Christ. Celebrate the mass at the world's ancient cities such as Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Nazareth, Sea of Galilee, Cana, Jericho and more. The Holy Land Pilgrimage is confirmed for May 9-19, 2022. Watch for more information.

IMPACT is a two-year formation program for adults facilitated by the Archdiocese of Dubuque. The program utilizes the Catechism of the Catholic Church, Scripture, spiritual reading, and dynamic presenters to guide spiritual, theological, intellectual and pastoral formation in the Catholic faith in order to help participants live out missionary discipleship in their parish and community. IMPACT is open to any adult who desires a deeper relationship with Christ and a greater understanding of the Catholic faith in order to better serve others through leadership. The next two-year cohort begins in September of 2021 and will meet at St. Mark Church in Iowa Falls.More information is available at www.dbqarch.org/IMPACT.
