QUOTE OF THE DAY

“What we would like to do is change the world--make it a little simpler for people to feed, clothe, and shelter themselves as God intended them to do.

And, by fighting for better conditions, by crying out unceasingly for the rights of the workers, the poor, of the destitute--the rights of the worthy and the unworthy poor, in other words--we can, to a certain extent, change the world; we can work for the oasis, the little cell of joy and peace in a harried world.

We can throw our pebble in the pond and be confident that its ever widening circle will reach around the world. We repeat, there is nothing we can do but love, and, dear God, please enlarge our hearts to love each other, to love our neighbor, to love our enemy as our friend.”- Dorothy Day

COFFEE WITH ST. FRANCIS

This year is the 800th anniversary of the passing of St. Francis of Assisi and we want to take this opportunity to help our parishioners to learn about this great and holy man.

Part of our celebration of him will be a series of four gatherings called "Coffee with St. Francis." For the Wednesdays in June (June 10, 17 and 24), we will gather in the church hall at 9:45 A.M. (right after the 9:00 Mass) to learn a little bit about St. Francis and have a conversation about how he can help us live our lives of faith more authentically today.

We will have coffee and tea and some breakfast foods available for us to share as well.

Please join us and bring a friend!

FAITH SHARING GROUP ON THE SAINTS

Fr. Salvatore will facilitate a four-week faith-sharing group on the saints using the series on these holy persons produced by Martin Scorcese. We will watch an episode of the series and then have a discussion on that saint’s life and its significance for our own lives of faith today.

Each session will be at 7:00 P.M. in the church hall and this is the schedule:

June 24- St. Mary Magdalene

July 8- St. Francis of Assisi

July 22- St. Joan of Arc

August 5- St. Maximillian Kolbe

All are welcome to join us.

LISTENING SESSION WITH OUR PARISH’S YOUNG ADULTS

We have seen a good increase in the number of young people who are coming to St. Joseph’s, and we rejoice in that!

We will have a listening session on Thursday, June 18 at 7:00 P.M. in our church hall to hear from our young people what they are experiencing in their lives of faith; what their joys and hopes and struggles and frustrations are with the Church (both local and universal); what they are looking for.

Our hope is that by hearing from our young people what they are experiencing and feeling, we can better serve them and better integrate them into our parish family.

And we’re not going to define what age a young person is! If you feel you are part of that demographic that we are referring to, we truly hope you are able to attend and join the conversation at this meeting.

We need to hear your thoughts and your experience to help us to continue to be the exceptional parish that we are, and which we want more people to be able to participate in.

Please contact Fr. Salvatore if you have any questions. He can be reached at [email protected] or at 845-255-5635, ext. 114.
