Eleventh Sunday in Ordinary Time
The seed is the word of God, Christ is the sower. All who come to
him will live for ever.
“The Lord will raise Israel like a tree on a high mountain. It shall put
forth branches, bear fruit and become a majestic cedar.”
The reign of God is like a mustard seed. It is the smallest of all
seeds, yet it grows into the biggest shrub of all. By means of
parables Jesus taught the people.
Let us Pray
O God, strength of those who hope in you, graciously hear our pleas, and, since without you mortal frailty can do nothing, grant us always the help of your grace, that in following your commands we may please you by our resolve and our deeds. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, One God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Pray for our Sick:

Lord hear our prayers.
Amen

Remember that with the lifting of the Dispensation for attending Mass, we are obliged to attend Sunday Mass. St. Martin's will continue with the Saturday evening Vigil and only one Mass on Sunday at 9 a.m.. ( Either Mass fulfills our Obligation.)
Of course, all who are seriously ill, have limited mobility or a serious health concerns continue to be dispensed from personal Sunday Mass attendance.
We are still in need of individuals, groups, or families to clean the church during the months of June, July and August. Please prayerfully consider this important ministry and form of alms giving. For more information, see Fr. Rex or me. There is a signup sheet in the church. Thanks and God Bless.
Next Sunday (June 20) is Father's Day
