A Prayer for Generosity
Lord, teach me to be generous.
Teach me to serve you as you
deserve; to give and not to
count the cost, to fight and not
to heed the wounds, to toil and
not to seek for rest, to labor and
not to ask for any reward, save
that of knowing that I do your
will. (Saint Ignatius Loyola)
Please make your gift to the 2011
Archbishop’s Catholic Appeal a
reflection of your deep faith and
love of the Church.

we have here." Then He said, "Bring them to me," and
He ordered the crowds to sit down on the grass. Taking
the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to
heaven, He said the blessing, broke the loaves, and gave
them to the disciples, who in turn gave them to the
crowds. Matthew 14:17-19

Eighteenth Sunday in
Ordinary Time
Matthew 14:13-21
Theme:
For the
Month of
August
The Mighty
One has
done great
things for
me, Holy is
His Name.
Luke 1:49
The crowds followed Jesus
constantly. Here in this story,
after a long day, the people
had nothing to eat. Jesus told
His Disciples to feed them.
There was little food available,
but when Jesus blessed it,
somehow there was enough
for everyone, with plenty left
over!
The promise of abundance told by
the prophet Isaiah (55:1-3) was fulfilled by Jesus as He fed the people
who were hungry. He continues to
feed the hunger of our hearts
through the Eucharist. The Eucharistic meal we share brings us closer
to Jesus and is a foretaste of the
eternal banquet we are to share in
Heaven. For this let us give
thanks!
In our Second Reading
(Romans 8:35, 37-39) we are reminded that nothing can separate
us from the love of Christ.
Liturgy of the Word:
The Gospel (Matthew 14:13-21)
speaks of Jesus feeding five thousand men, not counting women and
children. He fed this crowd with
only five loaves and two fish. Let us
be attentive to this great story
which recounts the multiplication
of the loaves and fish. May we be
grateful for the miracle and ask
God to nourish and sustain us on
our path to conversion.
If we listen to Jesus and follow His
teachings, our hearts will be fed
and we will come to have eternal
life!
Lord, you are the source of
strength and nourishment; you are
the way that leads to everlasting
life!
Special Thought:
Can you remember a meal
where the food seemed neverending?

Supper Club
Is looking for new members!
Supper club is a pot luck format with 4 couples in
each group that rotate hosting each month. The host
couple provides the main course, veggies, bread and
(wine or other libations are optional). The other three
couples rotate bringing appetizers, salad and dessert.
Every four months we reorganize the groups so we
are able to enjoy and get to know different people in
the parish. The fun will begin again in July!
We are looking for a new
chairman for Supper Club.
Please call the church office at 945-6673 if you would
like to volunteer for this position! Current members
please call if you intend to stay in Supper Club.
Please join us for this fun way to
get to know each other!
