World Day for Consecrated Life.
Through baptism, we are all called
to a life of holiness. Each of us has
a vocation. Each year the Church
celebrates and honors men and
women in religious communities
with the World
Day
for
Consecrated Life,
called for by
Pope Francis.
On this day we
give thanks for the women and
men who have committed their
lives to living and working to and
through a religious community.
They do so much good in the
world/ As the Holy Father has
said “the consecrated life appears
to us all just as it really is “a gift
of God!”

The Sanctuary Candle is burning
continually as a sign of the continual
real presence of Jesus Christ, Body,
Blood, Soul, and Divinity under the

person with love, listening to their
prayers, and giving them the grace
needed to deal with the problems of
life. Do you want the light of Christ to
be with you while you pray for yourself and/or loved ones, If you would
like to schedule the times you want to
do this, please call the rectory.

WORLD MEETING OF FAMILIES
Lord God, by the creation of the first Eve and her spouse,
you made marriage and the family the foundation of all
human community. By the birth of your Son, Jesus, to the
new Eve, Mary, our mother, and her most chaste spouse,
Joseph, you radically altered human history. Through this
Holy Family you made a path for our salvation. May the
upcoming World Meeting of Families with the Holy
Father serve to give you glory and bring strength and fortitude to families who are being assaulted by evil from
every direction. May the meeting be a source of light and
hope to all the world. Amen
Fourteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
July 5, 2015
Ez 2:2-5
God wanted to speak in Old Testament times, he sent
prophets. Then he sent his Son. Now he is sending us
as his messengers. It’s a safe conclusion that God
really wants to speak to his people! His longing to
connect with us can’t be contained. Today’s first reading also tells us that our disposition doesn’t change
God’s desire to speak to us. He sent Ezekiel to speak
his word to a people he knew was hard-hearted. He
didn’t tell his prophets to avoid them. He didn’t send
them just to the holy, the expectant, and the receptive.
We see this also in today’s Gospel reading. Jesus
spoke to the people in his hometown, even though
many of them rejected him. You can be sure that God
will be sending you messages today, so keep your eyes
open! Look in the usual places like Mass and your
loved ones. Let his word break into your heart. Allow
the wave of his desire for you wash away any obstacles.
He is sending his word to you. Receive it and let it lift
you up!
~~~~
July 4th Independence Day Prayer
O God, you willed that the Jewish people be free from
slavery by their Egyptian captors. You will that all
people should be free to worship you without fear and
to celebrate their religious beliefs freely, even if they
have not yet found you. Grant that those of us who live
in this great nation will thank you daily for our freedom, and work for the freedom of others around the
world that do not yet have the freedom to practice their
faith openly and proudly. We seek your wisdom where
hatred abounds, and ask for humility to offer our good
works to others who live in fear and bondage. We ask
all this through Christ our Lord, who frees us from sin
and death through the wood of the cross. Amen
