We are nearing the end of our fiscal year and
as you can see from the figures below, we are
behind a little more that $9,000 in meeting our budget. I would
like each of you to look at your tithing to the parish, pray about
it, and see if you are able to contribute more over these next
two months. It takes everyone doing their part to keep our parish operating. And remember, “God will never be outdone in
generosity!” Let us pray for each other this week.

Dynamic Catholic, Alive!
The Holy Spirit
Today’s Gospel reading is Trinitarian, with references to the
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. In this passage from John, Christ
assures His Apostles that the Holy Spirit “will teach you everything and remind you of all that I told you” (John 14:26). Who
is the Holy Spirit? He is the third person of the Most Blessed
Trinity and “one and equal with the Father and the
Son” (Compendium, 47). “The Holy Spirit, whom Christ the
head pours out on His members, animates and sanctifies the
Church” (CCC, 747).

Stewardship Awareness
“...do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid.” John 14:27
Our limited human understanding cannot begin to understand the immense power of God. Instead of trusting in God, we think we can
control every outcome. The next time worry, anxiety or fear creeps in,
thank God for all He has given you and trust He has a better plan for
you.
