Today we celebrate the Solemnity of the Nativity of St. John the Baptist, the voice crying out in the wilderness, preparing the way of the Lord.
⁣
From before his birth, John’s life pointed boldly to Christ: “He must increase; I must decrease.”
⁣
St. John the Baptist, pray for us!

Happy Father’s Day! 💙

Today, we give thanks for all fathers who reflect God’s love through their strength, sacrifice, and guidance.

May we look to St. Joseph, the quiet, faithful protector of the Holy Family, as an example of humility, courage, and trust in God’s plan.

Bless all dads today and always!

In April, people in our community and across our archdiocese shared powerful stories through Listening with the Heart sessions—stories of faith, belonging, and hope.
⁣
Now, we invite you to be part of the next step.
⁣
From June 1 - 22, the archdiocese is asking everyone in our community to complete a short survey that will directly shape the future of our pastoral planning, as part of the archdiocesan Renewal from the Heartland process.

Eleventh Sunday in Ordinary Time
⁣
Jesus doesn’t just see people, He feels for them. He invites us to share in that same compassion, to be part of the harvest, bringing hope, healing, and love to a world in need.
⁣
Freely you have received, freely give. Go where you are needed. Be the kindness someone is praying for.

Archbishop Shawn McKnight is encouraging all Catholics throughout our archdiocese to enthrone their homes to the Sacred Heart of Jesus as part of the Renewal from the Heartland pastoral planning process. 🙏

This invitation is especially significant following yesterday’s consecration of the United States to the Sacred Heart of Jesus by the U.S. bishops in anticipation of our nation’s 250th anniversary. 🇺🇸 Although we have a special opportunity to embrace this devotion during the month of June, enthronements can take place at any time.

Local artist Jason Jenicke Art, who grew up at St. Patrick Catholic Church, generously donated the piece of artwork shown below, which can serve as a focal point for home enthronements.

You can download the image and a worship aid, and watch an explanatory video, on our website at: https://archkck.org/consecration-to-sacred-heart/
