Yet we are courageous, and we would rather leave the body and go home to the Lord. Therefore, we aspire to please him, whether we are at home or away.” 2 Corinthians 5: 7-9 As Christians, we also know that the conclusions of the heart are as valid as those of the mind. Yet, this is one of the most difficult aspects of our relationship to God and to one another. Faith implies trust. Without that sense of trust, that feeling of hope, that awareness that there is more to truth than what seems obvious, we cannot pursue discipleship and stewardship the way Jesus has invited us to live. Our faith - our commitment to living as Christians - must pervade everything in our lives, everything we do every day.- See more at www.catholicsteward.com/ blog/. .

The program explores in greater depth and knowledge the basics of our faith. All the sessions focus on the ministry that we are called to in and through our baptism. Communication skills, group development, leadership skills, bible study, church history, prayer and sacraments are some of the many areas explored and examined in depth. Adult methods of learning and reflection are employed throughout. The sessions are scheduled on Tuesday evenings, from 7 -9:30 PM, beginning in late August and ending in late May. This is a 9-month commitment to deepen one’s skills and knowledge so as to become a more effective and engaging minister. We hope to work collaboratively with our neighboring parishes, inviting them to be part of this mutual learning process.

Amen KANSAS CITY GANGSTER TOUR - JUNE 25 Come and join our Over 55 group for the Kansas City Gangster Tour on Thursday, June 25. We will meet at St Sabina at 9am to carpool. The tour begins at 10am at Union Station where we will board an air-conditioned bus to take us to the different spots on the tour. There will not be very much walking on this outing, but we will be getting on and off the bus several times during the 90-minute tour. The cost is $25 each. Please call the parish office to sign up. The Gangster Tour puts you hot on the trail of this city's most notorious Goodfellas. Our Gangster tour features an interactive look at the Pendergast era from 1920 to 1945. TV monitors highlight this era with historical film and photographs during this wild and wooly period. You’ll learn and see how the “Pendergast Machine” controlled the political system and the very fabric of life in Kansas City. The tour highlights infamous crimes like the Union Station Massacre, shows the locations of speakeasies, gambling halls and how liquor flowed freely during prohibition. The homes and workplaces of crime bosses, the sites of major turf wars are also featured on the tour. Professional actor, Tim Phillips, plays Johnny Holiday and will serve as your guide for this 90-minute tour. Don't make us twist your arm. Grab a group of friends, hop on the bus and you’ll be immersed in a melodramatic look at mob homes and hangouts, turf wars and infamous crimes like the Union Station massacre.

ADULT FAITH FORMATION REFLECTION ON THE ELEVENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME , YEAR B Since the celebration of Pentecost three Sundays ago, we re-entered the season of Ordinary or numbered Sundays that began with the feast of the Baptism of Jesus and was interrupted by the great ninety days of Lent-Easter-Pentecost. Both Trinity Sunday and the feast of the Body and Blood of Christ are part of Ordinary Time, even though we use their festal name and not their numbered name. Today we pick up the numbered or ordered Sundays with the Eleventh Sunday in Ordinary Time. Responsorial Psalm 92 clues us in to the theme for this Sunday, that of thanksgiving to God. We are invited to sing the refrain, “Lord, it is good to give thanks to you.” The verses specify why thanksgiving is in order. God’s faithful covenant love is always there, always sustaining us in both good and bad. Planted or rooted in the Lord assures the just that they shall flourish and grow as tall and majestic as the cedars of Lebanon. Even when old age strips us of vitality and energy, still the Lord will cause the just to be vigorous and sturdy. The Lord can be relied on for life and growth. The first reading from Ezekiel is intended as a hopeful message to a dejected and lifeless Israel, destroyed and exiled in Babylonia. Through the prophet, God assures Israel that from this lifeless state, new growth and life will come. God will choose a tender shoot, and plant it on Israel’s mountain heights, causing it to grow into a great majestic cedar. It will thus provide hospitality to all, and all will be amazed at it’s majesty and splendor. God lifts up the lowly and brings down the mighty. All this is the Lord’s doing. Nothing can prevent it from happening. The second reading from Paul’s Second letter to the Corinthians acknowledges that in life, we “walk by faith and not by sight,” since we are already connected to the Lord. Our desire is to be fully connected to the Lord. Since we are not there yet, the best way to fulfill that desire it to “aspire to please” the Lord always and everywhere. One day we will be with the Lord, and will be held accountable for all that we did. Therefore, if we desire full union with the Lord, let us live lives that manifest such ardent desire. Mark’s gospel consists of two parables concerning God’s reign. Parables are stories taken from life experiences intended to stretch people’s imaginations, helping them arrive at connections that they would not ordinarily make. The two parables speak of insignificant seeds that are sown, which grow mysteriously and provide growth, life, hospitality and abundance. This is what the reign of God is all about. Jesus came to preach and model the reign of God, inviting others to imitate and live God’s values and life style. As disciples, we do our best to plant and sow our own insignificant seeds – our words, our actions, our lives – trusting that God will cause life, growth, and abundance to happen. Often God’s reign is realized in the most unexpected and insignificant times, places and events. The poor, the oppressed, the marginalized and those suffering become fertile ground for God’s abundant life-giving growth and harvest. This is the essential mystery of God’s reign. As we “walk by faith and not by sight” we are invited to be part of building up God’s reign. Jesus tells us that God’s reign is assured. Paul invites us to do our own insignificant part in making that reign a reality. We know and trust that God will do the rest, and that nothing will stop that from happening. This Sunday, reflect on how you cooperate with God in building up God’s reign, no matter where you are planted. How do you plant those insignificant seeds that God causes to sprout into majestic cedars, offering life, nourishment, shelter and security to all? Ask God for help and strength to do all you can do make God’s reign real and active today.

SABINA RITE OF CHRISTIAN INITIATION OF ADULTS – 2015-2016 The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults, the RCIA, is a process which welcomes all who are interested in becoming Catholic, or any Catholic wishing to deepen their understanding of the faith. The Rite involves the formation of a community that learns, shares, builds community and prays together to deepen their relationship to God and to the parish family. During the next few weeks, we will be asking if you are aware of anyone who would benefit from participation in this faith learning process. Below are some of the values that we hold as Catholic Christians, which we readily share with all who desire to journey with us through the RCIA. WHY BE CATHOLIC? The Catholic Church has consistently believed that God has a universal will and desire to save all people. Our God is the God of all people. God has initiated this love relationship with all creation and desires to bring all to fullness through total union with God for all eternity. Each one is called to union with God through the faith path and tradition that they feel God is leading them. If this is so, then why be Catholic? One is Catholic, not because it is the only way to God, but because one feels attracted to the things that the Catholic tradition offers. One feels at home more in the Catholic tradition than in other faith traditions. The following list is meant to highlight some of those aspects of the Catholic tradition that have attracted others to it. Catholics are not the only ones that value these qualities. Nor have we been consistent in following through on them. But, no matter the history, we seem to have held onto these values rather consistently. See if these are values and attractions for you. 1. We affirm a belief in the goodness of all creation. 2. We have a universal sense of openness to all people and all cultures. 3. We affirm that we are all called to holiness. 4. We are committed to continual growth as persons. 5. We are challenged to change the world and society into the reign of God. 6. We are called to live in community. 7. We have historical roots and identity. 8. We respect reason, human knowledge and human exploration. If you or anyone you know would be attracted to these values, please share the information with them. Please fill out the contact information sheet located in the gathering space and we will personally contact and invite all those interested to our RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults) Meal which will be held on Thursday, August 27th, 2015 at 6:00pm. AREA INFORMATION DACA RENEWALS Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) must be renewed every two years. If you have DACA status, please be aware that the renewal process takes about 6 months. Please refer to the following timeline to ensure that you renew your DACA on time: 1. Check the expiration date on your work permit 2. Gather proof of presence in the United States since applying for DACA 3. Save money for the filing fee and for an attorney Processing a DACA renewal takes approximately 5 months. To ensure timely renewal, 6 months prior to your DACA expiration you should begin the renewal process. BEGINNING EXPERIENCE - A WEEKEND AWAY FOR A LIFETIME OF CHANGE. Serving the Widowed, Separated and Divorced; who are suffering the loss of a love relationship and may feel left out by their church, uneasy around married friends, unsure of themselves and uncertain about their futures. Helps grieving persons focus on their experience, deal with the natural grief process and offers an opportunity to turn the pain of loss into an experience of positive growth emerging from the darkness of grief into the light of a new beginning.

Our minds tend to focus on what is “wrong” in our lives. It is designed to solve problems and to keep us safe. Whatever can be imagined in the mind is experienced in the body. One strategy is to consistently remind ourselves to shift our focus to what is right in our world and away from all potential problems and complaints. Try these suggestions to see if you can shift your focus to experience less stress in your day. • Look for things to praise or appreciate in others, their love, forgiveness, patience, and understanding. • Look for the beauty in the world and in nature. • Seek out the positive qualities in others; celebrate what makes them unique. • Be grateful for when you can take yourself a little less seriously. SCREENINGS Come on in for a screening Monday through Friday and the first and third Saturday mornings. Our next screening Saturday is June 20th 8:30-11:30AM. Call for an appointment (816) 979-3090. Don’t forget that we provide one-on-one wellness coaching to help you meet your health goals! We can support you with your weight loss program! HYVEE GROCERY STORE TOURS AND COOKING CLASSES We all get stuck in “cooking ruts” sometimes, and taking a grocery store tour can shed light on foods you may have never noticed before! Learn what aisles to avoid if you’d like to maintain or lose weight, how to read a food label and which foods boost metabolism, lower blood pressure, provide protection from cancer and other diseases.
