28:16-20
The Lord God is one, there is no other (1). We have
been chosen as his own (Ps), and, through the Spirit, are able to call God Abba
(2). Through baptism all nations are called to share in the life of the Son (3)
and acknowledge the triune God.
STEWARDSHIP
Today’s
second reading reminds us that we are the adopted sons and daughters —the heirs
— of God. We are good stewards of our inheritance when we share our faith and
fulfill Our Lord’s command to “go . . . and make disciples of all the
nations.” (See Matthew 28:19)

PRAY FOR ALL OF OUR PARISHIONERS
For those who are ill, especially: Flo Gonda, Marion Mraz,
Beverly Turok, Elizabeth Connelly, Peter Yazgier, Josephine Sarnoski,
Keith Bloomer, Terri Mahoney, Cathleen DeLorenzo and Dorothy Yazgier
that their suffering and trials may become sources of grace for
themselves and others.

via text messages? Programs popping up around the nation, offer “anonymous”
sexual advice to teens through the texting feature on their cell phones. Children
can text any sex question and within 24 hours a stranger will send them back an
answer. Paid for partly with tax dollars, the owners promise frank and
“nonjudgmental” answers – and secrecy from mom and dad. This is marketed
directly to teens through outlets like MySpace. Please see the full story at

Food Collection Boxes
As
our economic problems deepen, food banks in our area are becoming overwhelmed.
As Catholics, we understand the calling to share our abundance with the truly
needy, for someday we will meet the Lord and ask, “Lord, when did we see you
hungry and feed you?” He will reply, “Whatever you did for one of the least of
these brothers of mine, you did for me.”
We
have started a food collection box in the church vestibule. Regular donations
of foods with a long shelf life will be appreciated. A list of suggested items
will be posted above the donation boxes for your reference.
Housekeeping Tip from

Always keep
several get well cards
on the
mantle…
So if
unexpected guests arrive,
They will
think you've been sick and unable to clean
