From the Pastor’s Corner
CYCLE B JUNE 28, 2015
13th Sunday in Ordinary Time
A
nd they ridiculed him." So he hung his head in shame and
slunk gloomily out the back door? So he pleaded and whined
and called them all names? No. Instead, Jesus " put them all
out" and went about his business, raising Jairus' daughter from the
dead.
Jesus wasn't concerned about what others thought. And
lest we imagine that everyone around him was constantly worshiping him and adoring his divinity, today's reading reminds us that even in the presence of the Lord, skeptics were a dime a dozen.
So should we be surprised if we must deal with a bit of ridicule ourselves?
As faithful Christians, we will at times be called to chart a course that doesn't make
sense in the eyes of the world. And, yes, some people will say we're crazy. We may be called to
take a stand for the unborn or the elderly in a culture that considers life to be expendable. We may
be faced with a decision at work that requires us to adhere to an ethical code that our boss thinks
is laughable. Perhaps we will have to sacrifice a relationship because of pressures to ignore
Christian morality. Or maybe the situation could be as simple as dealing with the smirks that arise
when we say a prayer before eating at a restaurant.
Whether we face a snicker or blatant discrimination against our religious freedom,
we should not flinch or waver when such opposition comes our way. Jesus faced it and so will
we. The question is only how we will respond.
Today, Jesus gives us an example of calm confidence as he marches forward with his
mission. He knew that he was doing the right thing, and that was enough for him. It should be
enough for us too.
Blessing for Independence Day
God our Father, from whom all good gifts come,
we are thankful for rest and food.
Grant that, in all we do or say,
we keep your goodness always in our thankful hearts.
We entreat you to bless all those who work to keep us safe,
and ask your blessings on all those who work
to share our blessings with others around the world.
We ask all this in the name of our brother and Savior, Jesus.
Amen.

Dear St. Christopher Families,
It is with a very heavy heart that I write to you
today. My husband’s work schedule has changed and
requires me to be available for my children in the afternoons and evenings. It is because of this change that I
am unable to stay on as Coordinator of Religious Education.
Your parish has become my parish. Your children
have become my children. You have all become my
family and it is extremely difficult for me to make this
decision. I hope to stay involved here as
much as I can, and ask you to pray for
me as I begin a new journey.
Many Blessings,
Alison Belfance

Summer months are fun months vacations, outdoor activities, more time spent
with family, friends and neighbors. Summer
is a time to relax, a time to let our minds
wander and wonder.
Sometimes, when we operate at a slower, more enjoyable
pace we may find ourselves more drawn to God, more open to
his call to journey to him. Perhaps you have felt drawn to God in
the Catholic Church and think that maybe now is the time to
figure out if this is a journey to which God is calling you.
The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) can
help you figure this out by bringing you to a deeper understanding of Jesus and the Catholic faith. When Jesus asked his
disciples what they were looking for, he invited them to come
and see. So, why not come and see what RCIA is all about. Meet
others like yourself as together we learn about the Catholic
Church and explore more deeply our journey of faith.
You are invited to join us when RCIA starts meeting again
on MONDAY SEPTEMBER 14th. For more information or if
you have any questions, feel free to contact me,
Eileen Cassidy,
Cassidy through the parish office at 758758-3732 or email
me at [email protected]
Please pray for those who are
suffering from this loss.
FRIDAY, July 3rd is FIRST FRIDAY
9:00 AM Morning Mass will be followed by
Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament until 6:00 PM
Come spend an
hour with
Our Lord!
Two guardians are needed for each hour.
Sign-up sheet is in the back of the Church.
Of all Catholic religious practices, one of the most
beneficial and spiritual is the HOLY HOUR.
This is a full hour of prayer and spiritual reading in church
in the presence of the BLESSED SACRAMENT.
As the Holy Hour begins there is a grateful realization
that this is a prayer that is not rushed. There will be time to
think and time to pray. And so the noises and distractions
of life fade into the background. Like the shouting of
school children as recess ends when the school bell rings.
The Lord God is here. Nothing else matters. The
multicolored, ever changing of nothingness that is our time
in history drops away. This could be any century. Time
means nothing: We are facing eternity.
WE REACH OUT TO GOD.

In February of this year I was officially awarded the rank
of Eagle. In June, the Ceremony to recognize this achievement
was conducted. I feel greatly honored to have achieved the rank
of Eagle Scout and realize there are many that helped me through
my journey. My Parents, Scout Masters and other Scout Leaders
from Troop 42 deserve much of the credit. However, just as
much credit should be given to the Parish of St. Christopher’s,
Father Pat and the Holy Name Society. Without their help and
assistance I would not have been able to become an Eagle Scout.
Thank you very much for your support
and prayers during my journey.
Sincerely,
Ben Kocik – Eagle Scout
