Attention Young Adults - The Pope Wants to Hear from You! - Pope Francis has indicated that in October of 2018 he will convene a Synod of Bishops, a worldwide meeting of Catholic bishops to be held at the Vatican. The focus of the Synod will be the youth of the Church and will carry the theme: “Young people, the faith and discernment of voca-tion.” The statement announcing the 2018 Synod said it will focus on how to “accompany youth in their existential path towards maturity through a process of discernment so they can discover their life goals and realize them with joy, open-ing themselves up to an encounter with God.” To involve young people in the preparations for the Synod of Bishops, young people between the ages of 16 to 29 are invited to participate in an online questionnaire that has been created by the Vatican. The purpose of the questionnaire is to better understand the lives, attitudes and concerns of 16 to 29-year-olds around the world. Young people from all backgrounds and faith traditions are encouraged to participate. The link to the questionnaire can be found here: https://survey-synod2018.glauco.it/limesurvey/index.php/147718. To view the questionnaire in English, change the drop down box in the top right corner of the page to “English”. Additional information about the questionnaire can be found on the Catholic News Service website at https://cnstopstories.com/2017/06/14/vatican-releases-online-questionnaire-for-youth/. A link to the Vatican website can be found by clicking here: http://youth.synod2018.va/content/synod2018/it.html.

Parish Annual Gift (Dues) Update - Due to the early printing deadline for this bulletin I cannot offer too much of an update on our Annual Gift drive. As of June 26th we have received about $56,240 from 837 families. Last year's total was $69,275 which had been donated by 949 families. In addition, we have received additional gifts from 161 parish-ioners beyond the $50 per adult totaling $12,575. Even though June 30th will have come and gone by the time you read this if you have not yet submitted your Annual Gift, or “Parish Dues” as these gifts had been previously known, you can of course still do so and I would ask you to please do so. I am very grateful for your generosity and helping us meet our obligations. May the Lord bless you for helping take care of His house and this parish. Annual Catholic Appeal - This year’s Annual Catholic Appeal (ACA) for the Diocese of Springfield, whose theme was One Family, Many Gifts began at the beginning of Lent. As of June 21st, 397 of our parishioners have made donations

PAGE THREE

and pledges totaling $57,023 which is just short of last year’s total of $57,559. The average gift was $143.63. Through the Many Gifts donated the needs of so many in our One Family will be able to be met. Thank you for being an expression of the Lord’s mercy to some of our least broth-ers and sisters. This will be my last update on this year’s ACA. Final Thoughts - Everyone in the AL East is treading water these days, at least at the end of June that was the case. No one is breaking away from the pack. It just might stay that way for the whole season. Looking for a place to go to Mass while out of town? Go to Masstimes.org. Have a blessed week!

B I U L E T Y N Parafialny - 9 lipiec 2017

14 Niedziela zwykła - rok A

Zygmunt Kałużyński przyznaje, że w swoim życiu kieruje się zasadami chrześcijańskimi: „Jezus mówi, że dwie najważniejsze to kochać Boga i kochać bliźniego”. I dodaje: „Na to Wolter

powiedział, że kochać Boga nie może, bo go nie zna, bliźnich kochać nie może, bo ich zna”.

„Albowiem jarzmo moje jest słodkie, a moje brzemię lekkie” – naucza Jezus. Słodkim jarzmem i lekkim brzemieniem są przykazania miłości. Jezus nie tylko wymaga, ale także daje siłę do wypełniania przykazań. Źródłem tej siły jest krzyż, bez którego miłość nie jest możliwa.

„Życie nasze zależy od tego, czy godzimy się nieść krzyż, który nam daje Pan Jezus. Jeśli się zgodzimy, będzie z tego wielkie dobro, jeśli nie – będzie nam ciężko. (...) Jeśli zgodzisz się na krzyż, jeśli on będzie twoją radością, to nie ma szans, żebyś przegrał” – uważa Jan Budziaszek.

(ks. Eugeniusz Burzyk)

_____________________________________________

MODLITWA CHORYCH Naucz mnie Panie korzystać z drobnych cierpień dla większego wzrostu duchowego. Z niepowodzeń jakich doświadczam, ucz mnie pokory i miłości bliźniego, zapraszając do spieszenia innym z pomocą i pociechą. W cierpieniach fizycznych - ucz, jak być cierpliwym. W bezsennej nocy - włóż w moje ręce różaniec lub Ewangelię. W samotności - daj mi poznać, że jesteś ze mną. W zniechęceniu i apatii- bądź bodźcem do działania z miłości do Ciebie. W żalu i rozpaczy - poucz, ż jesteś jedyną moją ostoją i nadzieją. W dolegliwościach starości- daj mi zrozumieć że powoli odrywasz mnie od spraw tego świata, od prac i obowiązków i pociągasz ku sobie, dajesz czas, bym się przygotował na spotkanie z Tobą, pozwalasz, by moja miłość dojrzała, ten jedyny owoc, który mogę zabrać ze sobą.
