ELEVENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
JUNE 12, 2016
1st
Reading: 2 Samuel 12:7-10, 13
2nd Reading: Galatians 2:16, 19-21
One of the greatest challenges that we face
today as a Church and as a local parish, is retaining
the participation of our youth as they grow older and
more independent. I firmly believe that in order to do
so, we must offer many opportunities for them to be
engaged in the life of the parish so that they develop a
true sense of belonging and knowing that their
involvement is an important part of parish life.
Actually, for people in any age-group, if going to
Church is merely a weekly spectator event with no
personal connection or active participation, it is very
easy to lose interest and drift away.
I am very happy to say that, although we have
far from perfect attendance, the number of youth who
attend and participate in the life of our parish is
higher than average. Thanks to a sound youth
program under the leadership of Mr. Michael Santilli
and a concerted effort to provide opportunities for our
young people to actively serve our parish community
after Confirmation, we have a good number of very
reliable and helpful young men and women who serve
in various parish ministries.
This weekend at the 11:00 AM Mass, we will
acknowledge and congratulate thirteen of our High
School seniors who have been involved in Liturgical
Ministries, some since the fourth grade as Altar
Servers.
Listed in alphabetical order and the
ministries in which they have served, they are: Keryn
Birrell – Lector; Brendan Dillon – Lector and
Eucharistic Minister; Danielle Dottor – Eucharistic
Minister; Jack Farley – Eucharistic Minister; Sarah
Gallo – Senior Server and Eucharistic Minister; Aidan
Kendra – Eucharistic Minister; Hayden Parkes –
Senior Server and Eucharistic Minister; Matthew
Russell – Eucharistic Minister; Adriana Saccoccio –
Eucharistic Minister; Christian Sorensen – Senior
Server and Eucharistic Minister; P.J. Thomas –
Lector; Ariana Tortolani – Lector; Amanda Woodbury
– Eucharistic Minister. I am very grateful to these
young men and women not only for their service, but
also for their commitment and for the great example
they provide for the younger children of our parish.
They demonstrate that discipleship is for people of all
ages! Let us continue to pray for them as they begin a
new chapter in their lives.
Gospel: Luke 7:36―8:3
