Dear Parish Family,
I hope your summer is going well.
Next weekend Rev. Fernand Caindec will be making a Mission appeal at all the masses next weekend
for the Diocese of Sorsogon in the Philippines. See the announcement in the bulletin.
As we prepare for September and review all our weekend ministries especially our children’s ministries please consider be-
coming a minister for Kidzone and Children’s Word. Also consider being a minister welcome center and the Café. All you
need is a friendly smile. You will be hearing a lot more regarding service and the Next Step in the weeks ahead.
Have you ever approached a hushed group and were certain they were talking about you? It’s an uncomfortable feeling to
catch people murmuring about what you did, said, or didn’t do. It breeds division and exclusion. In today’s Gospel, Jesus
invites us to just the opposite.
The reading opens with the crowds “murmuring” their doubts about Jesus after he has proclaimed himself the Bread of
Life. “Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph … how can he say ‘I have come down from heaven’?” In his response, Jesus brings up the
Israelites and the manna God brought them in the desert. If you turn back to the story in Exodus, you’ll see another similar
word: murmuring. As the going got tough, the Israelites doubted Moses and God’s plan to protect and care for them as a cho-
sen people. Here, Jesus proposes a difficult theological concept. Jesus himself is “the living bread” and “flesh for the life of the
world.”
This is not an exclusive concept. “Everyone who listens to my Father and learns from him comes to me.” Why? Because “the Fa-
ther who sent me draw[s] him.” The next time you’re at Mass, take a few moments to watch the communion line. Young and
old, families and singles, diverse races and cultures and stories … we are all drawn to the Eucharistic table. Catholic doctr ine
may require faith, but it is a faith possible for anyone who seeks truth. Christianity does not hide behind locked doors in an
exclusive clubhouse, whispering behind the backs of nonbelievers. Jesus compels us to share the love of God the Father for
his children, that we one day be joined with Him and “live forever.”
Have a great week!
See you on the weekend.
Fr. Andrew
A NOTE FROM FATHER ANDREW

August 5th Collection: $13,646.00
Jesus knows that our stewardship journey will be difficult; we are not designed to
do it on our own. Fortunately, Jesus gave us the greatest gift of all – the gift of the
Eucharist; His own body and blood. When we join our sacrifices with the
sacrifice of the Mass, we find the strength and courage to be His joyful disciples.
