August 8, 2021 PARISH MISSION STATEMENT
St. Julie Billiart is a welcoming Roman Catholic community that deepens our personal relationship with Jesus Christ by worshiping together, reaching out to others and building up the Kingdom of God.
St. Julie Billiart Parish Nineteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
From the Desk of Father George Greetings parishioners and friends of St. Julie’s,
On Friday (August 6th) of this past week, the Liturgical Calendar celebrated the Feast of The Transfiguration of the Lord. It is intended to lead us to reflect upon the glory of Jesus
as well as the journey to glory… a journey that often entails suffering and pain. How well did you personally do this past week in manifesting the glory of God through thought, word, and deed?
Today on the 19th Sunday of Ordinary Time, we continue with The Bread of Life Discourse from the Gospel of John. Jesus continues to emphasize that He is the bread from Heaven and anyone who eats this bread will live forever. Jesus gave us
this bread so that we might not only be united to Him, but that we are continually reminded of our destiny… to be raised up on the last day.
Many of us do not often think of dying on a day-to-day
basis, but, we are… every day brings us closer to eternity. We do not know when that will happen, but it will. The news broadcasts and papers have been reporting an unprecedented number of tragic deaths of so many innocent persons, and I think of that flash of a moment when any of us will meet God. Are we
ready for that event?
Please remember to pray for all who suffer or are infirmed, homebound or confined in any way. They too are part
of the Body of Christ.
Fr. George
FYI: Next Sunday – August 15th – is the Feast of the Assumption of
the Blessed Virgin Mary. The Bread of Life Discourse from the Gospel
of John will be interrupted as we celebrate this feast of our faith.

Read the Gospel of the week and color the image.
CYCLE BFind and circle eight things that are different.
The Hebrews often baked manna into little cakes. Ask your parents if you can make pancakes this weekend, and talk about how Jesus is like manna.
19th Sunday in Ordinary Time • John 6:41-51
In today’s Gospel reading, Jesus compared himself to manna. A long time ago God’s people ate manna in the desert, because there was no other food to eat. By sending manna falling from the sky every morning, God taught his people to trust him. Manna tasted good, and it kept them healthy. God took care of them and gave them all they needed. Then, hundreds of years later, God sent Jesus down from heaven, so people could have everlasting life with him.
Dear God, thank you for sending Jesus down from heaven so that we can look forward to living with you forever in heaven. Amen.
Draw a picture of manna falling out of the sky.
Read the Gospel of the week and color the image.
CYCLE BFind the 3 shapes of manna on the ground that match the 3 shapes in the basket.
Share a can of food, a bag of sugar, and powdered milk with the hungry.
19th Sunday in Ordinary Time • John 6:41-51
In the Old Testament God sent manna from the sky to Moses and the Israelites. It was like small pancakes that covered the desert floor. Then God sent his only Son to die on the cross for us. The body of Jesus is the life-giving bread that he lovingly gave to the world. Because he died on the cross for us, we have everlasting life with God in heaven.
Lord, I am truly sorry for all the things I have done that hurt you.
Draw Jesus welcoming you inside the gatesof heaven.
