Fr. Richard Weisenberger
Dear Parishioners,
Beginning last Saturday, July 25, and continuing for several Sundays we have been hearing passages from the Gospel of St. John chapter 6. (This will be interrupted on August 15 because we will celebrate the Assumption of the blessed Virgin Mary.) St. John uses the miracle of the multiplication of the loaves and fish to speak about the Eucharist. This is a long section of St. John's gospel usually called "The Bread of Life Discourse" I encourage taking the time to read this prayerfully. Aspects of the Eucharist proclaimed by Christ in this discourse include: 1) Spiritual Food for the journey through his life to eternal life and 2) The centrality of Christ's real presence under the appearance of bread and wine. The fact that Jesus allows people who cannot accept this to leave Him underlines how important this belief is. It is a fundamental reason for out beliefs as Catholics that when we receive Holy Communion we truly receive Christ.

There has been an increase in students experiencing food insecurity on the weekends this year. The Backpack program sends food home with students in need. The most important part is making sure the food can easily be prepared by a child under 12. There is a list of food item suggestions in the back of church if you need ideas. If you have any questions, please talk to Anne Snodgrass.Read More
