A Blessed Day to All!
Dear parishioners,
A blessed Thursday to all!
To families who are heading out for summer vacation, be safe on your travels, have fun, and get rested. Wherever you are, prepare and participate in the celebration of the Mass on the Lord’s Day.
Last Tuesday evening, twelve parishioners gathered for dinner, and group viewing and discussion of The Chosen. The group decided to meet every two weeks to enjoy dessert, watch two episodes, and get into discussion and faith-sharing. Watch for updates in the bulletin. If you can make it, please join us.
Yesterday afternoon, I started with group RCIA sessions at the Ontario County jail. For those interested about jail ministry, the volunteers and I lead Inter-faith Rosary on Tuesday mornings, offer Communion Service on Sunday mornings, and conduct RCIA on Wednesday afternoons.

This weekend, take note of the 10-page parish bulletin. We will use the additional space for Eucharistic Revival articles. Please support of bulletin and magazine advertisers – they help us get our bulletin, parish app, and this email service for free.
Thank you to parishioners who responded to the Stewardship Appeal to make up for the deficit in the Sunday collection. Your help is appreciated.
