From the Pastor’s Pen
Thank You for Standing
in God’s Presence and
Ministering to My
Family and I During Our
Time of Sorrow.
Dear Parishioners,
My sincere and heartfelt thanks for all of the love,
compassion and understanding you extended to me
during the past few months.
It was six months ago that mom had a terrible fall in
her home (I was with our Yesterday’s Kids on our trip
to Branson when I received the call)… The doctors
discovered a large cancerous tumor that caused it and
at the time, the doctor told us that at the most, we
would have about six months of life left with her… or
because of her heart, she could possibly go at any
time…
The past six months have been an amazing
journey of faith and discovery for me and for each
of my siblings.
We never knew a heart could feel so much pain, yet
be filled with so much gratitude at the same time…
With God’s grace and the love of our family…
It has been such a bittersweet yet the most beautiful
journey…
We prayed for one last Christmas with mom…
We got it…
We prayed for one last Easter with mom…
We got it…
We prayed for one last Mother’s Day…
We got a day filled with so many blessings that we will
never forget it!

Mom always taught us kids by example… and even at
the very end… Mom taught us by example…
how to die with grace, hope and dignity!
Thank you to those who took the time to drive to
Perryville to be with me during the visitation…
Thank you to those who came to her funeral mass…
I will never forget your presence…
Thank you to those who made cakes for the funeral
luncheon…
Thank you for the beautiful basket of red carnations
sent to both Randy and I. Mom loved red carnations.
Thank you to our amazing parish staff; Fr. Dyer, Abe,
Agnes, Lisa, Jessi, Jeannette, and Sandi, who went
beyond the call of any expectations… From making
the funeral programs… to hosting the luncheon at the
farm. Thank you for keeping everything running so
smoothly while I was away for a couple of weeks.
Thank you for the many cards, perpetual enrollments
and mass offerings…
Thank you for the many memorial contributions to the
pavilion that will be built in her memory at the farm and
enjoyed not only by my family but also the hundreds of
retreatants that come for spiritual enrichment through
the year. Thank you for the memorials given to
Cardinal Glennon Children’s hospital in her memory.
The last three weeks were a wonderful and
beautiful time of blessings… I am so thankful that
I had my priorities right and took the time to be
with mom during her final journey and with my
family.
I sincerely thank you for being the awesome parish
family that you are… through you, I felt the very
embrace of God’s love during our hours of
sorrow.
We were blessed with an awesome mother!
And during the last two weeks, we've prayed that God
would lovingly lead mom safely home…
We learned that waiting can be painful…
On behalf of my siblings; Diane, Sharon, Billy,
Randy and Bruce and I, we extend our deepest and
heartfelt thanks!
We learned that God’s greatest gifts come with the
Cross…
Eternal rest grant unto her, O Lord, and let your
perpetual light shine upon her.

Cardinal Glennon
Children’s Medical Center
Plants for the Greenhouse
at Our Annual Parish Picnic!
“Where Faith and Healing Unite.”
We will again have our St. Joseph Greenhouse this
year. This is where you can donate houseplants,
bulbs, seedlings, anything from your garden that can
be planted.
Cardinal Glennon Children’s Medical Center touches
the lives of over 250,000 sick and injured infants and
children every year. Catholics across our Diocese
helped build Glennon, the only free-standing, Catholic
children’s hospital in America.
Please be a friend by making a gift to the hospital’s
annual Glennon Sunday Collection this weekend.
Our Parish Picnic
is Only 3 Weeks Away…
Our parish picnic is just 3 weeks away!!! We need
everyone to be involved so that we can make this
year’s picnic one of the best ever for our parish!
Please mark your calendars now for the weekend of
June 27 - 28 to be present to help with this major
fundraising event of our parish. If you need a T-shirt,
please contact Jeannette or Jessi in the parish
office by Friday, June 12!!
Early Bird Tickets for our
“All You Can Eat” Picnic Dinners
on Sale Next Weekend
Receive $1.00 off for an awesome meal
Early bird dinner tickets will be on sale the next two
weekends after all the masses. The prices for our
awesome “ALL YOU CAN EAT” Fried Chicken and
Kettle Beef dinners and our signature side of liver
dumplings will be $9.00 for adults (12 and over)
Children $5.00 (5-11) and children 4 and under are
free!!! If you buy your tickets early you will receive one
dollar off the regular price!!!
You Will Be Receiving
Your Raffle Tickets in the Mail…
Each registered, active and contributing household of
our parish will soon be receiving their raffle tickets in
the mail. We are sincerely hoping that each family will
try to sell a page of the raffle tickets and the quilt
tickets. The grand prize of our raffle this year is
$1,000, second prize $500, third is $250, and fourth
prize is $100. The quilt raffle has three beautiful quilts,
each one handmade by the hands of our St. Joseph
quilters!
Do your lilies, hydrangeas, irises, flowers need
thinning? If so, we would love to have them to sell
at our greenhouse!
Our Picnic Bottle Booth
Needs Your Help
When you do your weekly grocery shopping could you
pick up a couple of bottles for our bottle booth? Our
picnic bottle booth has absolutely NO overhead and
always generates a great profit.
Every year we run out of bottles with people still wanting
to play. As long as it is nonperishable, unopened, and
hasn’t expired, we would love to have it. Please see
page 13 for ideas.
Want to Un-Clutter Your Lives?
Bring Your Items to our Flea Market
to Help Your Parish…
I recently read that people spend the first half of their
lives collecting things and the second half of their lives
giving it away! It seems the older we get, the less
clutter we wish to have. Psychologists agree that
people who live uncluttered lives are more stress free.
We certainly have a way to help you get rid of your
clutter and reduce your stress!!!
Each year our parish has a flea market at our picnic
and this booth is another one of our successful
endeavors. If you have recently done your spring
cleaning, here is a great place to bring the items from
your closets, cabinets and garages and to know that
you have given them to a great cause, your parish
family!!! No clothing items will be accepted!!!
And Finally…
“Always remember that as long as we keep the
Eucharist the center of our lives, everything else
will fall in place...of that I am confident”!!!
Blessings of Peace…Fr.Rickey

“Then he took a cup,
gave thanks, and gave
it to them and they all
drank from it.” - Mark 14:23
Jesus, the perfect steward, gave thanks, just
before He gave Himself to us completely for our
salvation. He offers us the chance to drink from
His cup. In the Eucharist, we meet Christ
personally and, if we listen to Him, we know
what drinking from His cup means for each of
us. Often, it means our own sacrifice – giving
up some of our time, talent and treasure to do
His work on earth.
Together we pray for those who are sick. (Parishioners names are in bold.)
Please pray for: Debbie Hulsey, Rhonda LaPierre, Anna O'Connor, Hilda Hahn, Jan Blum, Paul Calbreath,
Eric Freeberg, Bob Dowd, Betty Holtmeyer, Norma Boyer, Charles Baumgartner, Pat Raymer, Chuck

The Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ
Today the Church focuses on the Eucharist. Today’s readings remind us how connected to ancient
blood sacrifices we are when offering our unbloody sacrifice. The reading from Exodus describes a
solemn ritual designed so the Israelites would never forget their covenant with God.
The reading from the Letter to the Hebrews turns us from those ancient animal sacrifices, the first
efforts to worship the living God. Our sacrifice is the body and blood of the Son of God. Because of
Christ we have a new covenant.
The Gospel from Mark retells the establishment of that covenant, the familiar story of the Last
Supper. Juxtaposed with the story of animal sacrifice as it is here, we are challenged to listen with
new attention, to remember the great price paid for our salvation. Jesus gave his body and every
drop of his blood for us.
How Shall We Make A Return To The Lord?
The ancient words of Psalm 116 ring out fresh and
new in today’s responsorial psalm. When the
psalmist asks how he or anyone can make a return
to the Lord for all the good that God has done, he is
echoing our prayer of wondrous gratitude. How can
any of us ever make a return to the Lord or repay
God in any way? In this psalm we are told what we
are to do: We are to take up the cup of salvation and
“call upon the name of the Lord” (Ps. 116:13).
This primal need to give thanks and make a return
to God prompts the Church to give us this solemnity
of the Body and Blood of Christ, a celebration set
apart from Holy Thursday, when, among other
things,
we
commemorate
Jesus
Christ’s
establishment of the Eucharist. That day, set in the
context of the Easter Triduum, is busy with many
symbols and actions. Today we turn our full
attention to the body and blood of Christ, given to us
in the forms of bread and wine.
The Cup Of Salvation
Jesus, in Mark’s Gospel, identifies the cup of salvation for us. It is the cup of his blood, the blood of
the covenant. This blood fulfills the old covenant, the one marked by Moses when he sprinkled the
Israelites with the blood of sacrificed animals. Now we take up the cup of the new covenant, the cup
of salvation, and we call upon the name of the Lord. How can this action make a return to the Lord?
Only this way: In this action we offer to God the only perfect gift. Alone we are nothing. It is Christ
who is the perfect offering. It is through the total gift of his body and blood that we have been
redeemed.
Today’s Readings: Ex 24:3–8; Ps 116:12–13, 15–18; Heb 9:11–15; Mk 14:12–16, 22–26

Dynamic Catholic, Alive!
The Real Presence
As we celebrate the Most
Holy Body and Blood of
Christ, we reflect on the
importance of the Eucharist
to the life of the Church. The
Church teaches that in the
Eucharist Christ is present
body, blood, soul, and
divinity. The Eucharist, which was instituted by
Christ on Holy Thursday, is the “source and
summit of all Christian life” (Compendium, 274).
How do you approach the Eucharist? Have you
gone to Adoration recently?

My sincere and heartfelt thanks for your

I look forward to being with you next

Blessings of Peace…Fr. Rickey
