From a Marianist Community of student brothers open to visitors for Sunday Eucharist, Queen of Apostles Community emerged as a non-territorial parish on August 28, 1973.

Continuing in the tradition of the Marianist Charism, we come together each week as a family of Catholic, Christian believers, to worship our God in the Eucharist with song &

praise and to share in the breaking of the Bread. In so doing, we proclaim our willingness to build a community of love and to be the holy people God calls us to be.

If you are visiting and worshipping with us for the first time, we extend to you our warmest welcome. Our prayer is that your worship experience will be uplifting and Spirit filled.

We hope you will visit us often and worship with us!

(If you’d like more information about us or would like to join our Community, please fill out the form on the back cover and drop it in the collection basket!)

NOTE: If the form on the back is missing, email [email protected] with your name, phone number, address and we’ll contact you about joining us.

Marianist Doxology May the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit be glorified in all places through the

Immaculate Virgin Mary.

QUEEN OF APOSTLES COMMUNITY (QAC)

Stewardship & Giving

Exaltation of the Holy Cross: “For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son…” (John 3:16). God gave us the gift of His son so we can enjoy eternal salvation. Of all our gifts, our life, is the most precious. We belong to God. This is why we must take time every day to ask Him how He wants us to use the life He has given us.

Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross

Presider.............................Fr. Tom Schroer Assisting............................Deacon Greg Cecere Liturgy Planner……………Pat Rooney Music Director…………….Teesie Chandler Interpreter for the Deaf......Susan Fraker

Numbers 21:4b-9: The remedy provided for the Israelites’ was the image of the very thing that caused their suffering...all who looked upon it were healed. In a sense, we are healed by looking to the cross where we see Jesus who “became sin” to take away our sin and heal us. He took away the burden of our trespasses, “nailing it to the cross.”.

Philippians 2:6-11: The theme of Christ’s emptying himself to the point of dying on a cross for others fits with the main theme of this letter, which is the need of the Philippians to place the needs of others, and of the whole Church, above individual needs.

John 3:13-17: The lifting up of the Son of man refers to Jesus’ crucifixion. In a literal, physical sense, the cross is also the greatest of Jesus’ displays of his divinity. Those outside the Church simply cannot understand who Jesus is. To them, the lifting up of Jesus on the cross is the end of his story, the execution of a troublemaker. But to those inside the Church, Jesus’ lifting up reveals that he is God.

Ministers Taking Eucharist to Those Not With Us

Presider: Let us send these ministers to those who could not be with us.

Response: Receive the Body of Christ for the nourishment of those who are not here with us. Assure our friends of our prayers and blessings throughout the week.

by sin! (Numbers 21:4-9)

Please pray for vocations to the lay ministries, priesthood, diaconate, and dedicated religious life.
