Today's Gospel has a strong connection to a passage we heard proclaimed during Lent: the story of Jesus and the Samaritan woman. At the conclusion of that passage, the woman runs back to town to tell everyone about what Jesus has told her. As the townspeople begin to make their way out to the well to see Jesus, he tells the Twelve to "lift up [their] eyes, and see the fields are white for harvest." What were they looking at? The white head coverings and clothing of the Samaritans.

It's a good reminder that often, the people we are supposed to speak the Word to are RIGHT in front of us.

Today, let's ask the Lord for the strength to proclaim his Word to our neighbors here within the boundaries of Ascension Parish.

A HUGE thank you to everyone who supported the Sacred Heart ABC Garage Sale this week!

Because of your generosity, we raised over $3,300 for our high school youth. These funds will help students attend life-changing summer camps and conferences where they can grow deeper in their faith and relationship with Christ.

We had a fantastic week and were especially encouraged by the many teens who volunteered their time and energy to make this fundraiser a success.

We're also grateful that the impact of your donations will continue beyond the sale. Leftover donated baby items will be given to Mary's Helping Hands, and all other remaining items will be donated to Overflow Thrift Store, which supports a variety of community outreach efforts.

If you didn't get a chance to shop but would still like to support our youth ministry, you can donate here: https://ascensionparish2.flocknote.com/give/33522

Thank you for investing in our young people and helping make these faith-filled opportunities possible!
