Next weekend, June 1st-2nd, 2019 will be “SIGN-UP WEEKEND! Since we already have some parishioners signed up, we wanted to give a last chance to anyone who missed the meetings to sign-up for whatever committee they feel they would like to be part of. After all Masses next weekend, June 1st and 2nd, please look for the table in the back of the church to sign up for a committee, and to ask any questions you may have. Explanation of the ministries can be explained to you at this time.

We are focusing now on these four committees:

1. Hospitality Committee, which encompasses Greeters, Fellowship Sunday team, Welcome Wagon Team, Kitchen Servers and Event helpers. 2. Event Planning Committee: helps plan and assist with the events of the parish, i.e. Anniversary Dinner Dance and Fundraiser. 3. Fundraising Committee: Solicits gifts, gift cards, gift baskets and donations to raffle off at parish events. 4. Parish Pastoral Ministry: this encompasses being on the Homebound Team, visiting the sick at home; Eucharistic Ministers Team, Nursing Home and Assisted Living Team; Communication Team sends get well cards to the sick, and Prayer Shawl Team.

Please SIGN-UP for any of these four ministries, and join this exciting new time for our parish, we are Seniors Alive!

MEMORIAL DAY PRAYER

Heavenly Father, today we remember and pay tribute to the men and women of the Armed Services who have died in the defense of our nation; from the days of the Revolution to these THE GOSPEL OF JOHN days in Iraq and Afghanistan. John 14:23-29 They paid the ultimate sacrifice for the freedoms we hold so dear. Jesus said to his disciples: "Whoever loves me will keep my word, and my Father will love him, In the words of Sacred Scripture we hear, and we will come to him and make our dwelling with him. "There is no greater love then this, than to lay Whoever does not love me does not keep my words; down one's life for a friend." yet the word you hear is not mine It is only by Your grace and the love they have for but that of the Father who sent me. You and this nation that gave them the strength to lay down their lives. "I have told you this while I am with you. The Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, We beseech you O Lord, to receive these will teach you everything servants of peace into Your loving embrace and and remind you of all that I told you. grant them the eternal peace that surpasses all Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. understanding.

The gospel of John in Jesus’ priestly talks, offers Grant this through our Lord Jesus Christ, us all three. the King of Peace. How special to realize that because of my Amen. dedication and commitment, I am a living dwelling place of the Holy Spirit. How special to know that the Spirit is teaching me today, as a missionary of a loving God. How special, because of my many cares and distractions, that I am reminded of what is of value, the treasure hidden in the field, the pearl of great price. Jesus is not just preparing me for His departure, or entrusting His mission to me, but expects me to carry it out by what I say and do. (Rev. William J. Reilly) St Maximilian Kolbe Page 7
