Bulletin – 22nd Sunday in Ordinary Time

Dear Friends,

Mass is on Sunday at 10 A.M. this week.  Remember your groceries for the food shelf–last Sunday of the month! 

We are called this week to consider who we truly are and to ask if we are honest about who we present to our world.  We are told that when we do this work of true self-revelation and act upon who we know ourselves to truly be, we in fact draw closer to God and to each other . And isn’t that what we inwardly want and what our world needs from each of us?

Come; celebrate with us this week!

Peace and love,

Pastor Kathy

Bulletin – 21st Weekend in Ordinary Time

Dear Friends,

This weekend is our Saturday Mass for August and it will be held at a special time–4:00 P.M.  instead of 4:30 P.M.   Pastor Dick Dahl will be presiding as Robert and I will be away.

We are challenged this week to see a very big picture–that together, all of us, make up the People of God–in other words, all are welcomed, all are loved.  In that regard, please remember in your prayers on Saturday, John Mizera and John Sutherland whose wedding I will be officiating!

Come; celebrate on Saturday at 4:00 P.M. the great love of our God.

Peace and love,

Pastor Kathy

Bulletin – 20th Sunday in Ordinary Time

Dear Friends,

Mass this week is on Sunday at 10:00 A. M.

We are asked to consider the role of the prophet this week in conjunction with Jesus’ words that we, “set a fire upon the earth.” I don’t believe that any of us who are serious about following Jesus are of the mind that this task will be an easy one.  No, we have our work cut out for us! But let’s remember that Jesus walks with us each and every day.

Come; celebrate with us this Sunday!

Peace and love,

Pastor Kathy


Readings: 

  • Jeremiah 38: 4-6, 8-10
  • Hebrews 12: 1-4
  • Luke 12: 49-53

 

Bulletin – 19th Sunday in Ordinary Time

Dear Friends,

We are called this week to consider what faith means to us.  Even though we don’t always possess the full understanding of life as it unfolds, we say, “We believe.” And just what is it, we might ask, that we believe?  Come; ponder these questions with us this week.

Peace and love,

Pastor Kathy


Readings: 

  • Wisdom 18: 6-9
  • Hebrews 11: 1-2, 8-19
  • Luke 12: 32-48

 

Bulletin – 18th Sunday in Ordinary Time

Dear Friends,

This week we are called to consider what we hold dear in life, what we strive after–even what consumes us.  Qoheleth, the Wisdom writer claims that much “is futile.” Jesus warns that striving after more of this world’s goods is not the answer.

Come; let us ponder these questions together this week!

Peace and love,

Pastor Kathy

P.S. A wonderful celebration of Mary of Magdala was enjoyed by approximately 25 people last Sunday–a Mass uplifting Mary and all women–recognizing them all for their God-given gifts, and followed by a scrumptious  pot-luck meal! Thanks to all who made it happen! Thanks to our good God for giving us a beautiful day to be outside!
