Over the past 27 years, DuPage PADS has moved from just
managing homelessness to actually treating the whole
person and providing a SOLUTION to end homelessness.
We can all do something incredible by working together to
offer these people hope and possibility. Volunteer to walk
beside and care for those in our community that are
homeless. On Friday nights in July and August we host
our PADS guests at the Celebration! Campus. You can
help these people by making their stay with us enjoyable
and friendly. We invite you to take time to sign up on
line at oursaviours.com/serving others/local or by
scanning this QR code. You can also contact Dawn Duffy
at 630-305-9196, or Lorri Neely at 630-222-1607.
“asking that…you may lead a life worthy of the Lord…” - that
was the hope of the author encouraging the Colossians in the first
century. (1:10) Accordingly, we too are encouraged to lead a life
worthy of the Lord! And just what might this look like?
Interestingly enough the gospel (Luke 10:25-37) of the Good
Samaritan is the accompanying text for this Sabbath. Every pious
Jew knew the answer in leading a good life: Love the Lord your God with all
your heart, mind, soul, and strength…and your neighbor as yourself.
Translated, this means that one reflects God’s mercy in responding to one’s
neighbor. In these summer months of July and August, disciples at Our
Saviour’s are asked to reach out to our neighbor -- for in so doing, we experience
the living God who reaches out to us in Jesus the Christ. This good news comes
to us again today at the font, the altar, and from the pulpit. It is very near to you.
Oh, and by the way, may you rejoice in leading such a life!
-- Your Servant – Bob
