Eucharistic Adoration ~
Monday’s 9:00 AM—7:00 PM
The devotion to the Eucharist is the
most noble because it has God as
its object; it is the most profitable
for salvation, because it gives us
the Author of Grace; it is the sweetest, because the Lord is Sweetness
Itself.

CATHOLIC SERVICES APPEAL 2015
The Sunday Mass from the Cathedral of Saint Andrew is one of the longest-running live televised Masses in the nation. For
more than 55 years, the Diocese of Grand Rapids has provided a televised liturgy to thousands of people who are homebound, hospitalized, and incarcerated. Through the financial support received from the Catholic Services Appeal and the
generosity of private donors, the Sunday Mass can also be viewed live and on-demand on the diocesan website. The Mass
can be viewed each Sunday at 10:00 a.m. on WXMI FOX 17 and at www.dioceseofgrandrapids.org.
To date 340 families, representing 26% of our parish households, have pledged $90,764 or 60% of our parish goal. We would
like to have 100% participation.
Online gift giving and pledges can be completed at www.dioceseofgrandrapids.org/CSA. If you need assistance with this,
come into the Parish Office and Patty or Emily can assist you.
Also keep in mind that any amount raised over our goal is returned to the parish, specifically this year the Faith in Our Future campaign. If you have returned your CSA card, thank you!

A Family Perspective ~ July 26, 2015
In today’s Gospel Phillip worried about “enough food” for the crowd. What is
ENOUGH? When does our ENOUGH deprive another family of their fair share? Jesus performed today’s miracle because one child was willing to share and risk living with less. Can your family live more simply so that other families can simply
live?

REFLECTION: In the heights of heaven, where He sits at
the right hand of the Father, what does Jesus do? Scripture
tells us that, sharing our human nature, He constantly intercedes for us. He presents to the Father the dignity of our
humanity, that it may be filled with the life of God.
PRAYER: Lord, give us confidence that we can always
approach You as You intercede in Your humanity for ours.
