Twelfth Sunday in Ordinary Time

News and Notes:  As you prepare for summer vacation, our Finance and Operations Manager Caterina Benitez has a suggestion for you.  If you have not already signed up to be an online donor to support your respective parish during the summer months and beyond, now would be a good time to do so.  Just choose an amount that you would like to contribute on a regular basis and have it sent automatically to your home parish.  This method of financial giving is easy and convenient for the donor, and very beneficial to his or her parish, because it ensures a steady cash flow even during vacation months.  If you are interested, please visit our website or contact Caterina at the Collaborative Office Building on Grove Street for assistance.

On Father’s Day, here is a blessing prayer for our dads: 

God our Father, in your wisdom and love you made all things.  Bless these men, that they may be strengthened as Christian fathers.  Let the example of their faith and love shine forth.  Grant that we, their sons and daughters, may honor them always with a spirit of profound respect.  Grant this through Christ our Lord.  Amen

Happy Father’s Day to all our dads…and blessings to all of you in the week ahead!
