Assumption-Florian Parish Bulletin, June 7, 2026
“Because there is one bread, we, who are many, are one body, for we all partake of the one bread.” (1 Corinthians 10:17) As disciples of Jesus, we are called to lead holy lives and invite others to join us. We are called to be fed and to feed others. Living a stewardship lifestyle, being grateful and generous with our gifts, serves a twofold purpose. One, it helps build God’s kingdom here on earth. Two, it helps us strengthen each other’s relationship with God and Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. It becomes our roadmap to Heaven. Let’s help each other get there!

Do Something Beautiful for God – The Essential Teachings of Mother Teresa
June 5 – The thirst of Jesus on the Cross is not imagination. “I thirst, “He said. Hear Him saying it to you...and respond.
June 6 – I was traveling by train to Darjeeling when I heard the voice of God. I was sure it was God's voice. I was certain He was calling me to something more. The message was clear.
June 7 – If the poor die of hunger, it is not because God does not care for them. Rather, it is because neither you nor I are generous enough. It is because we are not instruments of love in the hands of God. We do not recognize Christ when once again He appears to us in the hungry man, in the lonely woman, in the child who is looking for a place to get warm.
June 8 – At times, I feel rather sad, because we do so little. Most people praise us for our actions, but what we do is not more than a drop of water in the ocean. It hardly affects the immensity of human suffering.
June 9 – Some people would advise me to change certain things. For instance, they tell me that the sisters should have fans in the common room or in the chapel. I do not want them to have fans. The poor whom they are to serve have no fans. The same is true for the routine of the house. I always ask the people, “Please do not interfere!”
June 10 – Try to put in the hearts of your children a love for home. Make them long to be with their families. So much sin could be avoided if only people really loved as family.
June 11 – People often ask me, “You work to bring about peace, why don't you work to lessen war?” If we work for peace there will be fewer wars. But I won’t mix our work with politics. War is the fruit of politics, and so I don't involve myself, that's all. If I get stuck in politics, I will stop loving, because I will have to stand by one, and not by all.
