Preparations for launching the 2016 - 2018 Capital
Campaign progressing. Leaders for the 13 teams in the
primary areas of focus ̶ Communication, Prayer, Response, and Education ̶ have been selected and
training on their specific duties and responsibilities has
taken place over the past couple of weeks.

from Fr. Mike and Fr. Timothy introducing the campaign
and its leaders and providing suggestions about how
you can play a part in supporting this exciting campaign.
Many thanks to all who have volunteered their time and

To quote Fr. Mike, “We invite EVERYONE to ‘come on

From the Pastor’s Pen
Mass Intentions
This past weekend, members of our Pastoral Council spoke to
us on a new program underway that is very exciting and will
benefit children in the Liberty School District, and our neighboring public school, EPIC.
Week of June 29 - July 5
The ‘Backpack’ program is sponsored by Harvesters’ Food Network, and provides children of low-income families with food
and nutrition over the weekends during the school year. Our
Pastoral Council is undertaking inviting our parish to be part of
this endeavor to help families in need. This past weekend was
their first invitation and people were very generous ̶ raising
over $1,700 to get the program underway. More details are
here in the Bulletin. Thanks so much for being so responsive to
helping those in need. You’ll be hearing more about this program and how you can get involved over the next few weeks.
Our Campaign is underway, and our 6 Co-Chairs and Team
Leaders are doing a great job and we have lots of enthusiastic
folks on board. We really have as our goal to be able to raise
enough money through our efforts this Fall to get a church underway. It’s a huge effort and it’ll take every parishioner being
part of it, so if you haven’t signed up yet, you can still do so.
Let’s spread the word about all the good that is happening
here to build our community in so many ways!!
We pray in gratitude for the Precious Blood Community, for
their dedicated service to St. James for so many years. Their
community is celebrating their 200th Anniversary and Fr. Timothy, along with members of his community, are headed to
Rome to celebrate world-wide this exciting milestone. We as a
parish are extremely grateful for the Priests and Brothers of the
Precious Blood Community who have served this parish, as
well as the Companions who continue to share the message of
St. Gaspar del Buffalo with our parish to this day! The CPPS
community will have their local celebration of the 200th Anniversary on Sunday, August 16th at 4:00 p.m., to which we are all
invited.
May you and your families continue to know God’s Blessings as
we journey through the summer!!
Peace, Fr. Mike

lunches.
In our first weekend, we were able to collect approximately 30% of the monies needed to fund this
program for one school year.
No one deserves to go hungry, especially children. Please continue to give to this program and
look for updates showing our progress in reaching
our goals.

“Voices Of Gold”
Coming To St. James
June 29 at 7:00 pm
June 28, 2015
Someone is Watching and Wondering
In six days we once again
celebrate the birth of our nation. There will be parades,
picnics, fireworks, and endless speeches about freedom; freedom fought for by
solders over the past 200+
years, and guaranteed by our
constitution. Even the Pledge
of Allegiance states we are
“One nation under God, with
liberty and justice for all.” Without sounding unpatriotic, I
sometimes question the truth of these words and concepts,
and feel repelled at their meaningless repetition in public addresses. What is true freedom? How are we witnesses of
liberty and justice for all?
Recently I read a quote from Pope Francis’ Evangelii
Gaudium. As preface to these words let me say that I believe our Pope’s words and actions are a beautiful example
of the true freedom, found through knowing, loving and serving Christ Jesus. I also feel Pope Francis example of simplicity and inclusivity are the only way to bring liberty and justice
to all humankind. Here is his quote:
All are invited to attend this extraordinary concert of
sacred and secular music presented by this award
winning choir of 24 boys, ages 8-15.
Winner of bronze and silver medals at the World
Choir Games in 2012, and proclaimed “Voices of
Gold” by two German newspaper critics, this is a
choir to be heard. With crystal clear voices, and
wonderful intonation, the North Star Boys’ Choir
from Minnesota, will delight audiences of young and
old alike.
To believe that the Son of God assumed our human
flesh means that each human person has been taken up
into the very heart of God. To believe that Jesus shed his
blood for us removes any doubt about the boundless love
which ennobles each human being. Our redemption has a
social dimension because ‘God in Christ, redeems not only
the individual person, but also the social relations existing between men.’ To believe that the Holy Spirit is at
work in everyone means realizing that he seeks to penetrate every human situation and all social bonds. ‘The
Holy Spirit can be said to possess an infinite creativity,
proper to the divine mind, which knows how to loosen the
knots of human affairs, even the most complex and inscrutable.’ Evangelization is meant to cooperate with
this liberating work of the Spirit.” (para. 78)
I intentionally highlighted parts of this quote, because I believe these words help define us as followers of Jesus,
Catholics, and citizens of the United States. As such we are
obligated to work for peace and justice for all. We cannot
remain idle while our brothers and sisters go without nourishing food, safe shelters, medical care, and education. We
cannot view others as outside God’s embrace because they
look, live or act differently. St. Paul urges: “As many of you
were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with
Christ. There is no longer Jew of Greek, there is no longer
slave or free, there is no longer male and female; for all of
you are one in Christ Jesus.” All humanity was made in the
image and likeness of God; He emptied himself and became
like us in everything but sin; and we are all God’s beloved
children. Jesus lived on the margin of His cultural world. He
challenged the status quo. He reached out to those shunned,
hurting, and alone. His life was one of emptying and letting
go. So too for each of us a life of hope and love is a life of
emptying and letting go. Jesus revealed that fullness of life
comes from recognizing our radical and complete dependence on God. That for me is true freedom, and worth praying for. Happy Fourth of July.

Saints Peter and Paul Feast Day - June 29
These two saints are the founders of the
See of Rome, through their preaching, ministry and martyrdom there.
Peter, who was named Simon, was a fisherman of Galilee. Jesus gave him the name
Cephas (Petrus in Latin), which means
‘Rock,’ because he was to become the rock upon
which Christ would build His Church.
St. Paul was the Apostle of the Gentiles. His letters
are included in the writings of the New Testament, and
through them we learn much about his life and the
faith of the early Church.
In the year 395, St. Augustine of Hippo said of Sts.
Peter and Paul: “Both apostles share the same feast
day, for these two were one; and even though they
suffered on different days, they were as one. Peter
went first, and Paul followed. And so we celebrate
this day made holy for us by the apostles' blood.
St. Thomas, Apostle Feast Day - July 3
Best known for his initial unwillingness to
believe the other apostles in their claim that
Jesus had risen from the dead, St. Thomas
can teach the faithful about believing without seeing.
When he was told about it by the other
apostles, he said, "Unless I see in his hands the print
of the nails, and place my finger in the mark of the
nails, and place my hand in his side, I will not believe."
When Christ appeared later he said to Thomas, "Put
your finger here and see my hands, and bring your
hand and put it into my side and do not be unbelieving, but believe.”
Pope Benedict XVI said “The Apostle Thomas’ case is
important for at least three reasons. "First, it comforts
us in our insecurity; second, it shows us that every
doubt can lead to an outcome brighter than any uncertainty; and, lastly, the words that Jesus addressed to
him remind us of the true meaning of mature faith and
encourage us to persevere, despite the difficulty, along
our journey of adhesion to him."

mountain adventure - exploring God and His Word. The kids learn to overcome obstacles with God's awesome power. This is a week of fun, games, singing and crafts.
VBS brings kids together — kids who are happy, hurting, curious, doubtful, wonderful, wounded, and
weak. In five days of mountain adventure, VBS helps them discover God’s mighty power. Kids will leave
as more confident, faith-filled people ready to pursue a lifelong friendship with Jesus — no matter what!
Cost is $20 per child, which includes their t-shirt, music cd and all the fun stuff for the week.
VBS is open to children from those 3 years old by 8/1/15 to those entering the 5th grade next fall.

VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL
July 6 - 10
8:30 am - 12 noon
We love VBS at St. James! That’s the good news.
The "bad" news is that it takes an army of volunteers to
produce that week of fun and games for our campers.
We need your help to make that week happen ̶ and
without it, VBS is just a fond memory of years gone
by. We need a few parents to be station leaders ̶ the
lessons are already scripted for you; you just need to
present them in short, 20 minute sessions.
We need a few parents to be team leaders ̶ you just
accompany your crew as they move from station to
station. And we need a few parents to help with
snacks or supervising our teen helpers. And we need
teen helpers as well. All roles are easy and the rewards are a-MA-zing. It's just a week, and only half
days ̶ could we make it any easier? If you have commitments for some of the days, we can pair you with
another volunteer, so don't let that hold you back from
signing up.
Volunteer sign-up sheet are available in the narthex.

St. James School News
Our Father, who “works”
in heaven,
hallowed be thy name…..”
Imagine… a school day that begins with prayer, includes a reading of the Word of God, and then time
for reflection on what God is saying to
each one of us. During our day, we
learn how to spread His good news.
We celebrate God’s creation and thank
Him as we learn to be good stewards
of the amazing gifts He’s given to us.
We see Him in EVERYTHING: math,
literature, nature, history, music, the
arts and in each other. A day like this
is like each and every day at St. James School, including Kindergarten!
We pray together, celebrate Mass together, work
together, and encourage each other through successes and trials to help the children enjoy the richness of our Catholic Faith.
We have a great school! Our
teachers are fabulous! Our
motto is, “As good as we are,
we can always get better!” So
we continually study, go to
trainings, and review our practices, so that we give
our students the very best education possible.
Did you know?
As a tithing member of the parish, you will pay no
tuition, as our school is a ministry of our church.
Become a part of our school! Please contact the
school office at 816-781-4428 for more information!
