“Music Notes” From

Lynn Kahler, Director of Music

An excerpt from Sing To The Lord: "God has bestowed upon his people the gift of song. God dwells within each human, in the place where music takes its source. Indeed, God, the giver of song, is present whenever his people sing his praises...Music is therefore a sign of God's love for us and of our love for him...Singing together in church expresses so well the sacramental presence of God to his people."

You, your fami-ly, and your community of faith will be forever changed. We are excited to welcome Deacon Larry Oney as our 2018 retreat speaker.

HAVE A WONDERFUL, SAFE SUMMER!!!

GOSPEL MEDITATION July 1, 2018 13th Sunday in Ordinary Time Today's Gospel offers a rare framework -- a story in a story. Most of the healing miracles are standalone encounters. One person approaches Jesus, demonstrates faith, and is healed. The evange-list tells the next story. This Gospel, however, is different. Jesus is on his way to heal one person, a young girl of twelve, and is inter-rupted on his journey by "a woman afflicted with hemorrhages." She bravely approaches Jesus in a crowd, despite being ritually unclean from her bleeding, and stretches out to touch his cloak. She is healed! Jesus meets her eye, confirms her faith, and contin-ues on to resurrect the young girl. Reading this passage, it might be easier to identify with one story -- the long-suffering woman or the young, innocent girl -- and to move past the other. But here they sit side by side. The girl is twelve. The woman has been suffering for twelve years. For the Gospel writers, number parallels have deep symbolic meaning. Between the woman and the young girl, we are not one or the oth-er. We are both. None of us had a perfect childhood, perfect fami-lies, or a perfect peer group. As we endure pain, disappointment, or unmet expectations, it can feel like a part of our childhood hopes have died. Our coping mecha-nisms, social adaptations, and hidden secrets can make us the "walking wounded" in some re-spects. Jesus wants to do more than simply staunch the bleeding. His healing hand makes dead things come alive. He awakens the dreams that are asleep. This process requires prayer, conversations with trusted community and spiritual mentors, and critical looks at difficult areas of our life. However, we can believe the words of our Lord. If we approach Jesus in faith, believing that he wants to heal and save, we, too, will hear his calming words spoken over the hurts of our life. "I say to you, arise!" "Go in peace." LIVE THE LITURGY - INSPIRATION FOR THE WEEK God does not rejoice in our demise or our destruction. Rather, He made us in His image and desires that we have life. He also de-sires that we be healed and know His loving touch. There is great power in an embrace. The touch of another can heal wounds and restore life. There is also power in faith. Faith can turn us toward the truth and turn us toward God. God can profoundly change how we see Him, ourselves, and one another. God desires that we turn toward Him and be healed of all that wounds and binds us so that we can be free and enjoy the fullness life. Reach out and share your faith with someone this week so that they can receive God's life-changing embrace. EVERYDAY STEWARDSHIP RECOGNIZE GOD IN YOUR ORDINARY MOMENTS As the baptized, we are called into community, and we are strong-est when all members have full faith in Jesus Christ. When one of us falters or begins to doubt his or her faith, that is when our faith is to be shared freely as a source of strength. If we hold our faith inside, then those around us will miss a chance to be edified and strengthened by our witness. We can give freely of our money, our time, and our talents but still not share our faith with those around us. This hinders the Body of Christ's ability to evangelize and spread the Good News. It also helps to keep members of that Body weak, because without the chance to hear our stories of faith, those with the need to hear can remain discouraged and lost. Faith is a gift from God to us, just like any other. We are called to cultivate our faith and grow it into abundance. If we do not share it with others, then why grow it at all? We are not saved because we have more faith than someone else. We are no better off with stor-age bins filled with knowledge, devotion, and faith experience than a baby on its day of baptism. The difference between the baby and us is that we have something now to share and the responsibility to do so. -Tracy Earl Welliver,
