WELCOME Saint John Vianney Parish is a community of faith, hope and love. We strive to foster our spiritual growth and share the gifts God has given to us all.
You are invited to join Saint John Vianney Parish, registration forms are in the back of the church, on our website www.sjvianney.org or stop by the Parish Office. For your convenience you may drop off a completed form in the collection baskets in church.
You are invited to share your gifts with our St. John Vianney community. Is God calling you to become a part of this important work of the people of God?
Dear Sisters and Brothers,
We celebrate today the feast of the Body and Blood of Christ, also known as the Feast of Corpus Christi. The Vatican Council documents teach us that the Eucharist is “the source and summit of the Christian life”. And rightly so. For while all the sacraments make available the grace of God, the Eucharist makes available Christ Himself (St. Thomas Aquinas).
While the weekend experience centered around the Eucharist has been focal point of our worship and liturgical celebrations, at least four Eucharistic devotions have gained prominence in our Parish Community just like in the universal Church. They are the following:
Devotional visits to the Eucharist reserved in the tabernacle Eucharistic Processions . Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament also known as Adoration Benediction in which a solemn blessing with the Eucharistic Bread is imparted to the faithful.
For a couple of years, we here at St. John Vianney have had the Eucharistic Adoration every 1st Saturday in the chapel in the lower Mullen Commons from 9 am to 3.30pm. Several us have been very faithful to this devotional practice. May God bless them!
Having gone through this tradition of Eucharistic Adoration in our Parish, the leaders of the Adoration Group have brought it to my attention that exposing the Blessed Sacrament immediately after the 8.30 am mass till noon of the same day would be more beneficial to our Parishioners. They also indicated to me their desire that this be held in the Church. Having thought over this for some time, their suggestion seems to me to be very practical and feasible too.
Hence, I’m glad to announce that starting in July 2019, we’ll have the Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament on Saturdays from 9am and conclude it with the Benediction at noon. The Adoration will be in Church itself. When there’s a funeral scheduled on Saturday (and it’s rarely done in our Parish), the adoration will be in the Chapel of the lower Mullen Commons.

5th Sunday Collection
Next weekend, June 29 & 30, is our 5th Sunday collection for our St. Vincent de Paul ministry. With your help, one less
family’s pantry will be empty. With your help, another neighbor will be closer to getting back on their feet.
When the Society of St. Vincent de Paul was founded 186 years ago, we had one goal in mind – to build a more just and compassionate society. Every day since, we have aspired to serve the poor with love, respect, justice and joy. As you know, far too many of our friends and neighbors in Walnut Creek and Concord live at or below the poverty line and children make up a substantial percent of that number. The St. John Vianney Conference provides assistance with food, gas, clothing, medical and dental assistance, and help with utility bills and rent for families in need.
Because of you, we can keep helping our most vulnerable neighbors. Donations from caring people like you help us ensure that every human being has a better chance at achieving their inalienable right to life and the pursuit of happiness. We could not do this without you. We, and those we serve, sincerely thank you for your generosity.
If you are interested in joining this ministry please contact Kathy Dasso at [email protected] for more information
Virtus Online Training Recertification In 2016, volunteers at our parish trained for Safe Environment (Protecting God's Children). That certification was valid for 3 years. As due dates approach this year, some parishioners are receiving e-mails from the Diocese with a link to the refresher course. Please take some time to recertify as soon as you receive it. The Module for refresher course is called: Keeping the Promise Alive. As a side note, if you read your monthly bulletins from VirtusOnline, you are in compliance and will not receive an e-mail to retrain.
