Schedules change, vacations are planned and the thought of Labor Day seems to be in the distant future. This is also the time of year when graduations take place and speakers reflect not only on success and achievement, but also on the realization that along the way others have played a great role in their life. The achievements of the graduate are shared by many. The same is true for parish life as well. Week after week the most important thing we do is come together for worship. This defines us as a Christian community, strengthens our relationship with God and provides the network for us to face the challenges of the coming week. When we come together we do so not only for ourselves, but also for one another. We provide support and encouragement through prayer. There are many people in a parish who take on roles which the church refers to as ministry. They publicly perform functions that help to enhance our worship experience. Because they do their ministry so well, we can easily tend to take them for granted. As most people usually go to the same Mass each week, they don't always have a full appreciation of all the people that function in the various parish ministries that impact our communal June 23, 2013 worship. Listed in today's bulletin are the names of our parishioners who participate in a liturgical role. We rely on them greatly and value their willingness to assume this responsibility. As we come to the end of this school year and prepare for the summer break, I would like to wish each of you a wonderful summer experience wherever your travels may take you. I also want to remind you that it can be a very interesting experience to attend Mass in a different place while you are away. If you are looking for the nearest church, go to www.masstimes.org. Don't forget to plan to attend our two events in September; the Parish Picnic on September 8th, and the Golf Outing on September 24th. Sincerely, Rev.
