St. Faustina Weekly Update
Happy Friday! We have had a busy week with our Virtual VBS program and Virtual Town Hall! We want to thank our clergy and all of our incredible volunteers for making both of these events a great success.

Also, those who wish to watch the Virtual Town Hall recording can find it on our YouTube Channel here. Don't forget to make a reservation for Mass this weekend using our Eventbrite Link. As a reminder, we have temporarily suspended our 7am Sunday Mass for the time being. Before attending Mass this weekend, we remind you to go through the attached health checklist before coming to the parish.

Reflection on Sunday's Readings
This week we read three of Jesus’s most famous parables: the sower and the seed, the mustard seed, and the yeast in the three measures of flour. What do all of these have in common? You might say they are stories about faith and how it grows and develops. This is correct, but they also have something else in common: the theme of patience. Enjoy this reflection through our free account with Formed.org.
1st Reading - Wisdom 12:13, 16-19
2nd Reading - Romans 8:26-27
Gospel - Matthew 13:1-24-43
You're invited to Zion at St. Faustina! We will be live-streaming our first Zion on Sunday at 7pm. Join us for an evening of praise & worship, adoration, and a dynamic talk. The event will be live-streamed on our Facebook and YouTube Channel!
Zion is a new event at St. Faustina focusing on giving the whole family an opportunity for a dynamic encounter with the living God in the Eucharist. The Eucharist is the source and summit of the Christian life and the promise of God's dwelling place with His people, Zion. You and your whole family are invited to join us for this beautiful event.

Hunger Drive
Hunger is an ever-present reality in our community during these difficult times of pandemic. Interruptions and shortages have temporarily stopped our normal food distribution. Deacon Rey and the Outreach Committee need your help to provide food to be distributed to those most in need. After Mass, as you exit the church, there will be a table with bags and instructions on how you can help. For those participating in Mass via livestream, bags will be available for drive-by pickup from a container right outside the church office. To the extent possible, Fr. Dat encourages all to generously participate in this beautiful display of God’s Love and Mercy.
Upcoming Events:
Tomorrow: Sacrament of Confession: 2-4pm
Saturday and Sunday - Reserve a spot at Mass for your family online
Sunday, July 19: Zion: Family Worship Night (7-8pm)
