So too with our tithe – we give a generous, sometimes even sacrificial share of our income joyfully to God because God is so generous to all of us. “For God loves a cheerful giver.” 2 Corinthians 9:7 Words of Tithing from the Pews: Tithing is a real act of faith for me! One thing I have learned about myself is that I never brought God into my finances. Handling finances is a very important part of my life, and I am glad that now God has become part of it in my decisions. Thank you for your sacrifice of Tithing! MASS ATTENDANCE Mass attendance for May 14/15: 1862 PRAYER FOR PRIESTS Jesus, by your most loving heart, I implore you to inflame with zeal for your love and glory all the priests of the world, all missionaries and those whose office it is to preach your word, that on fire with holy zeal, they may snatch souls from the devil and lead them into the shelter of your Heart, where forever they may glorify you. I especially remember those priests who have absolved me of my sins in the Sacrament of Confession, and those who have given me Your Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity as nourishment for my soul in the Most Holy Sacrament of the Eucharist. Amen. ELECTRONIC GIVING WITH FAITH DIRECT This month we are introducing a new and exciting way for you to support our parish offertory and special collections: Faith Direct.

the devil and lead them into the shelter of your Heart, where
forever they may glorify you. I especially remember those
