† Chuck & Peg Shepherd by Don Shepherd Family
Parishioners of Our Lady of Peace
Saint Cyril of Alexandria: spokesman of orthodoxy; noted especially for his Christological formulations; supported growth of Egyptian monasticism.
Saint Irenaeus: as bishop of Lyons, investigated and disproved assertions of Gnostics who claimed secret knowledge imparted by Jesus to select disciples; clarified Church teaching and gradually ended influence of the Gnostics.
Saints Peter and Paul: Peter was the apostle chosen by Jesus to lead the Church. Gospels show Peter was an ordinary man made extraordinary by God’s grace. Paul, early persecutor of the Church; became Great Apostle, also transformed by grace.
J O H N T H E B A P T I S T
Since June 24 falls on a Sunday this year, the Church has the opportunity for a more intense
celebration of the birth of John the Baptist, who is often described as the last of the Old Testament
prophets and the bridge between Judaism and Christianity. More commonly, John is known as the
“precursor” of our Lord Jesus Christ. All the Gospels report John’s basic message: Repent, the
kingdom is near at hand. One greater than I is coming.
Though he was a wandering preacher who dressed in camel skins and ate grasshoppers,
John’s legacy is one of true royalty. His origins are similar to those foretold by God through the
prophet Isaiah: “You are my servant, he said to me, Israel through whom I
show my glory” (Isaiah 49:3). John’s humility—“I am not he”—was surpassed
only by that of his Lord Jesus, the humble servant who followed.
TODAY’S READINGS First Reading — I will make you a light to the nations (Isaiah 49:1-6). Psalm — I praise you for I am wonderfully made (Psalm 139). Second Reading — John heralded his coming by proclaiming a baptism of repentance (Acts 13:22-26). Gospel — John is his name (Luke 1:57-66, 80).
14% (17 gifts)
NO GIFT IS TOO SMALL
Every gift to the CSA supports many important ministries throughout diocese. Remember: All contributions after 50% of CSA goal will go back to Our Lady of Peace Parish and used for necessary updates of our parking lots, interior doors, exterior security doors, exterior painting, roof repair. Help us to keep our parish and school maintained. Please share your blessings and consider making a donation.
Baltimore Catechism - Angelical Salutation
Q. What part of the Hail Mary did St. Elizabeth
make? A. The second part, “Blessed art thou amongst
women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.” The Blessed Virgin Mary went a good distance to visit St. Elizabeth. When Elizabeth saw her, she knew by the inspiration of the Holy Ghost what had taken place.
Q. Who was Elizabeth’s son?
