Solemnity of the Nativity of St. John the Baptist
1. The Baptismal Preparation Class for parents and godparents has been changed to this Thursday, June 28 at 6:30 in the Conference Room. Please contact the Church Office to register.
2. Let us take a few moments each day from June 22 to June 29 (Religious Freedom Week) to pray, reflect and take action on religious liberty. Please see the insert in this weekend’s bulletin for the prayer intention and reflection for today and for information about more daily reflections and prayer intentions for the week. Religious liberty prayer cards are at all entrances to the Church.
3. In keeping with Religious Freedom Week where people of faith are committed to serving others in God’s love, and with the Corporal Works of Mercy including visiting the sick, please give prayerful consideration to take Holy Communion to someone on our list of shut-ins and nursing home fellow parishioners. If you are already an Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion, you are already uniquely qualified to make these visits. Call the Church Office for more information.
4. Next weekend (July 1) is the Peter’s Pence Collection which provides Pope Francis with the funds he needs to carry out his charitable works around the world. Please be as generous as possible.
