The Power of Touch

As we come together for prayer this Sunday for Mass--whether on-line or in person--we'll take some time to reflect on a gospel passage where Jesus brings two people health and wholeness. What we will come to realize is that it happens through the power of Jesus' touch--but to people in that day and age who were not supposed to be touched because of their condition.

Jesus touched them anyway. He breaks through boundaries to help those who come to him often times with no where else to go. Our Sacramental life involves physical touch, which is a powerful way that Jesus breaks through time and space to touch our individual lives, especially through the Eucharist.

A Greeting from Bishop Grob

Last Sunday, Auxiliary Bishop Jeffrey Grob presided at the 10am Mass. It was a very joyful occasion and a chance to pray with the Bishop who shepherds us here in Vicariate 1 of the Archdiocese. After Mass, he took a couple of minutes to extend a personal greeting to all of us:

Her Journey Continues!

Parishioner Jazmin Rangel, who entered the Salesian Sisters last September returned home for a brief visit. She will continue discerning her vocation as she enters the Postulancy program in her order this August--the next step on her way to becoming a sister. Before she left to return to the formation house in New Jersey, she sat down with Fr. Mike to share some insights and reflections on her first year. An interpreter for the hearing impaired, she also teaches us how to sign "Peace be with you".

The Choir Sings!

Members of the choir sing the well-known and well-loved song, "Make Me a Channel of Your Peace" for today's on-line liturgy. The choir will break for the summer and return again in the fall.

A Year-End Appeal for Support

Thank you to everyone who has already given a special gift to help us get closer to our budgeted goal for collections this year. If you would still like to make a gift, our electronic giving platform is Give Central or alternatively the Universal Offertory Program offered through the Archdiocese.

Thank you always for the many ways you give and support our parish. Working together, we're making it through.

We're Ready When You're Ready

Entering into Phase 5 of the state's recovery plan has allowed us to fully reopen the church. It's been heartwarming to see more and more parishioners return to the worship space, an experience that has truly touched many people. Please know that when you're ready, we have a place for you. (If you find it helpful, take a look at the video where Jim Elder explains "What to Expect" when returning.)

No matter what our situation, we continue to keep connected through the power of prayer, trust, and hope in Christ who strengthens us and touches our lives.

May the peace of the Lord be with you always,

--Fr. Mike and the Parish Staff
