THANK YOU FOR YOUR GENEROSITY!

Annually, Archbishop Blair and the Archdiocesan Mission office invite and assign to each parish of the Archdiocese a speaker representing an official missionary group. Their task is to enlighten us of the work of the missionary groups and ask for our prayers and financial support. This year our guest speaker is Father Romanus Onyekuru of the Society of African Missions. Fr. Onyekuru will be with us the weekend of July 5-6. There will be a second collection that weekend to support the Society of African Missions. We ask that you be as generous as possible in helping to spread the Good News of Christ in distant lands. As  we  begin  the  season  of  summer  vacation  and   travel,  don’t  forget  about  the  valuable  resource  of   www.masstimes.org when  you  are  away  from   home  and  looking  for  Mass  schedules.    Safe  travels!  

Thank you for your generous support of the Catholic Relief Services Collection. Through your generosity families will be reunited, valuable life skills will be taught to those seeking a better life, and many will have vital humanitarian needs met. Please visit www.usccb.org (search “Catholic Relief Services Collection”) to learn how your donations make a difference and help Jesus in disguise. Please   pray   for   the   110   teens   and   adults   who   are   traveling   to   the   Boston   area   for   our   annual   Catholic   Heart   Work   Camp   Mission   Trip!     We   will   serve   the   residents   in   the   Greater   Lowell,   Massachusetts   area   working   on   home   repairs,   in   soup   kitchens   and   with   children.   The parish office will be closed on Friday, July 4th due to the Independence Day holiday.

JUNE 29, 2014

Survivor    -­‐  Summer  is  almost  here!    Save  the   date  –  July  18-­‐19  Friday  to  Saturday.    Games,  Midnight   Prayer  Service,  Bonfire,  S’mores.    Signups  open  on  the   web  on  July  7.    Open  to  high  school  students.     Blessing for Independence Day There is a saying, "To those whom much is given, much is expected." That saying is from “Uncommon Wisdom of John F. Kennedy: A Portrait in His Own Words.” That saying should sum up our thoughts as we celebrate the founding of our country. As we look at our history, we may easily see that much has been given to this country, and many have sacrificed to make sure we have kept those gifts. However, our faith informs us that a gift reaches its ultimate good only when it is given away freely. We have many gifts, and our country has a long tradition of giving many gifts to other nations. Moreover, sometimes it seems as if those gifts are not appreciated. Nevertheless, we continue to give. Let us pray for this great country of the United States of America: God our Father, from whom all good gifts come, we are thankful for rest and food. Grant that, in all we do or say, we keep your goodness always in our thankful hearts. We entreat you to bless all those who work to keep us safe, and ask your blessings on all those who work to share our blessings with others around the world. We ask all this in the name of our brother and Savior, Jesus. Amen.
