Sunday in Ordinary Time OUR DEEPEST NEEDS

The word of God serves up a tremendous feast for us today.

Isaiah beckons all who hunger and thirst to come to the Lord

for satisfaction. The psalmist cries out, “The hand of the Lord

feeds us; he answers all our needs” (Psalm 145:16). Saint Paul

tells us that nothing can separate us from the love of God. Fi-

nally, in the Gospel, we hear the story of the miraculous feed-

ing of over five thousand people from a mere five loaves and

two fish. Most of us have our material needs met on a day-to-

day basis. These scriptures, nevertheless, have much to say to

the contemporary believer. We must ask ourselves, “Where

are my deepest hungers? Where are my thirsts?” After mate-

rial needs are satisfied and, in some cases, over-satisfied,

many people still experience a deep longing for spiritual bal-

ance and well-being. As the loaves and fish are multiplied in

today’s Gospel, perhaps our prayer can be a longing for the

satisfaction of the deepest needs that only God can fill. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

(Please call me with your thoughts) Blessings on all ... In the

event that corona virus numbers keep going up with more posi-

tives and more deaths, it may be that we should exercise our

patience and wisdom and wait until next year, 2021.

HOLY CROSS CORNER Holy Cross Catholic Academy welcomes

new teachers for the 2020-2021 school

year.

Devin Van Curen -- will be teaching 10th and

11th grade Religion

Russell Steadman -- will be teaching Orchestra

and Handchimes

Shelbi Rickwartz – now full time teaching - 9th

and 10th History, 9th English, Book Club, a fit-

ness class, and volleyball

April Fetterman -- will be the school secretary

A big Mustang welcome for these new faces!

The time has come. Ronnie Fetsch and

Gerald Marnell are going to be ordained

as deacons for our parish August 15th at

St Mary’s Cathedral. Due to Covid-19

restrictions only immediate family is

allowed to attend. Friends and parish-

ioners are encouraged to view the cere-

mony.

www.amarillodiocese.org/live

It will be live-streamed from the cathedral at 10:30 am. It

will last until about noon. You can watch the live-stream

but because of the volume, there could be buffering prob-

lems so that it may appear to freeze up. The better quality

experience would be to watch the archive version, which

will not have that problem. The archive version will be

up within 15 minutes or so of the end of mass, so 12:15

or 12:30- ish.

The archive version can be accessed through the Diocese

of Amarillo website or on You-Tube. Just go to You-

Tube and search for the Diocese of Amarillo, and it

should be right there, the first one listed.

We thank you for the prayers, encouraging words, sup-

port and help these four and a half years. We are excited

to start serving you as deacons.

Ronnie and Debbie Fetsch

Gerald and Denise Marnell

BIRTH ANNOUNCEMENT: Renae and Austin

(Lancaster) had a baby boy on Saturday, July 11, 2020

and named him Logan Bradley. He was

born at 10:54 a.m. and weighed 8 lbs 6

ounces and 21 1/2 inches long. We are

proud first-time grandparents (Gwen and

Jerry Betzen) and great-grandparents are

Anita and George Wilhelm and former pa-

rishioner Agnes Betzen. Renae and Austin

currently reside in North Carolina where Austin is sta-

tioned at Fort Bragg Army base. Congratulations to you

all on your new bundle of joy!

DEATH ANNOUNCEMENT: Jerline Bartels, 86,

passed away Wednesday, July 22. A prayer vigil was

prayed Friday, July 24 and a Mass of

Christian burial was celebrated Satur-

day, July 25. Jerline met Erwin Bartels

and they married April 21, 1954. The

Bartels moved to the Hereford area in

1957. Jerline loved gardening and can-

ning for the family’s meals, she was an excellent baker

and cook, and had a well loved pet Chihuahua named

Bambi, and loved all animals. Jerline was very devout in

her faith, praying the Rosary at least twice a day. She en-

joyed watching game shows on T.V. especially The Price

is Right, Wheel of Fortune and Family Feud. She was a

Dallas Cowboys fan and loved to watch the games. Sur-

viving members in our parish are sons Donald Bartels,

Rick Bartels, and Bryan Bartels.

The family suggest memorials in Mrs. Bartels name be

made to St. Anthony’s School Endowment Fund.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Bartels family

during this difficult time.

From the desk of our pastor, Father Tony Neusch.

The gift of saying, “Good Bye.” I’m not for sure that I’ve ever seen it as a gift, but it has certainly become

one. There isn’t a need to embrace, and promise to stay in touch, and if ever you’re in Hereford, TX you have a

place to stay. “Good Bye’s” aren’t necessary if your life hasn’t been changed. Farewells are false if friendship isn’t

shared. Until next times are empty if you don’t really want to see them again.

I’ve learned that as exciting as “Hello” can be, it is the gift of “Good Bye” that changes a person. You don’t realize

the small portion of your heart given away until it turns and returns to the home it doesn’t really belong. But all is

well because that bit of you given away has been replaced with the bit of them. An authentic “Hello” can be shared

with any one, but a true, “Good Bye” can only be shared among friends. With Jesus Christ, “Hello” and “Good

bye,” require no separation. Our life in Christ is an exchange of the complete heart, in Christ there is no separation

only presence.
