THIS EUCHARISTIC FEAST Some things about human nature don't change, even over the course of centuries. When we celebrate a holiday, we have a meal; when we celebrate a significant event, we have a feast. In today's first reading, Lady Wisdom is setting a feast, a sign of celebrating the covenant that Israel has with God. Israel's central remembrance of its saving Exodus covenant is the Passover meal. So it is natural--and not coincidental-- that the Christian celebration of the new covenant sealed by the blood of Christ on the cross happens at a meal, our Eucharist, offered first by Jesus in the context of Passover remembrance. It is easy for us, some- times, to forget the very long and rich religious and human origins of our Eucharistic feasting on the bread and cup that are the Body and Blood of Jesus. Today, and for the next few Sundays that we hear the "Bread of Life" discourse from John, let us bring to mind the loving covenant that God makes with us, and be filled with great joy at this marvelous feast that we have come to attend! Wisdom has built her house; she has dressed her meat, mixed her wine, yes, she has spread her table (Proverbs 9:1-6). Taste and see the goodness of the Lord (Psalm 34). Be filled with the Spirit, giving thanks always and for everything (Ephesians 5:15-20). I am the living bread that came down from heaven (John 6:51-58).

All middle and high school students of the parish are invited (and encouraged!) to help in our “ministry of hospitality.” This is a great way to make friends and serve your parish at the same time! Summer is a best time to start working on those community service hours you may need for church, school, scouts or scholarships, and participation in “ministry of hos-pitality” is an easy way to do so! Thank you to all the teens who come to help with the preparation, serving and cleaning each week… we couldn’t do it without YOU! Please call Suzanne at 966-8878 for more information.

Pray for the New School Year

May all students, teachers and school staff have a blessed 2018-2019 school year!

Prayer of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton

O Father, the first rule of our dear Savior's life was to do Your Will. Let His Will of the present moment be the first rule of our daily life and work, with no other desire but for its most full and complete accomplishment. Help us to follow it faithfully, so that doing what You wish we will be pleasing to You. Amen.

Prayer for Students Lord our God, in your wisdom and love you surround us with the mysteries of the universe. Send your Spirit upon these students and fill them with your wisdom and blessings. Grant that they may devote themselves to their studies and draw ever closer to you, the source of all knowledge. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Prayer for Teachers Lord God, your spirit of wisdom fills the earth and teaches us your ways. Look upon these teachers. Let them strive to share their knowledge with gentle patience and endeavor always to bring the truth to eager minds. Grant that they may follow Jesus Christ, the way, the truth, and the life, forever and ever. Amen.
