☀️ It Takes a Parish to Make Totus Tuus Possible ☀️

Every summer, Totus Tuus provides our children and teens with a week of faith, friendship, and fun. Behind the games, skits, songs, and activities is a parish community that helps make it all happen.

We are currently looking for volunteers to help in a variety of ways:

🏠 Host Families

* Housing for 2 male missionaries OR 3 female missionaries

🙋 Teen Volunteers

* Assist during the daytime children's program

👨‍👩‍👧 Adult Volunteers

* One adult onsite each day during the children's program
* One adult onsite each evening during the teen program

🍽 Meals

* Lunches for missionaries and volunteers (15–20 people)
* Dinners for missionaries and teens (approximately 40 people)

🧹 Service Help

* Assist with cleaning the Parish Center during the Friday afternoon water fight

Whether you can provide a meal, open your home, volunteer your time, or help with cleanup, your support helps our young people encounter Christ and grow in their faith.

If you're willing to help sign up here: https://stjohnsclonmel.flocknote.com/signup/262288

Thank you for helping make Totus Tuus possible at St. John's! ❤️

Today the Church celebrates St. Thomas More, husband, father, statesman, and martyr.

When King Henry VIII demanded loyalty over conscience, Thomas More remained faithful to Christ and His Church, even at the cost of his own life.

His final words remind us that our first allegiance belongs to God above all earthly powers, ambitions, and desires.

May we have the courage to remain faithful to the truth, even when it is difficult.

St. Thomas More, pray for us.

Happy Father's Day!

One of the greatest gifts a father can give his children is the example of a life rooted in faith.

Today we thank all fathers, grandfathers, godfathers, and spiritual fathers who lead by example, teaching their children to know, love, and follow Jesus Christ.

May God bless you abundantly for your sacrifices, your guidance, and your faithful witness.

Happy Father's Day!

📖 One of the things we're focusing on as a parish is growing in our love for Sacred Scripture.

St. Jerome, who spent much of his life studying and translating the Bible, reminded us that the more we come to know God's Word, the more we come to know Christ Himself.

As we continue pursuing Pastoral Priority #1, we pray that St. John's may become a parish rooted in the Word of God and transformed by the person of Jesus Christ.

What a beautiful weekend for our parish! ❤️

Approximately 90 families participated in our Sacred Heart Enthronement weekend, bringing Sacred Heart images to Mass to be blessed and committing themselves to placing Christ at the center of their homes.

An enthronement is more than displaying a sacred image—it is an invitation for Jesus to reign in our hearts, our marriages, our families, and our daily lives.

As we continue to pursue our pastoral priority of strengthening the Domestic Church through Marriage & Family Formation, we are grateful for the many families who responded to this opportunity.

Please join us in praying that the Sacred Heart of Jesus will bless these homes with faith, peace, unity, and love.

Sacred Heart of Jesus, reign in our families. ❤️

Today we celebrate the Sacred Heart of Jesus—a feast that reminds us of Christ’s immense love for every person.

The words in today’s graphic come from Jesus Himself, spoken to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque:

“Behold this Heart which has so loved men.”

The Sacred Heart reveals a God who loves without measure, seeks out the lost, forgives sinners, and continually invites us closer to Himself.

May we respond to that love with trust, gratitude, and devotion.

Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on us

❤️ Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus ❤️

Tomorrow the Church celebrates the Feast of the Sacred Heart, a feast that reminds us of the immense love Christ has for each of us and His desire to draw us closer to Himself.

Join us tomorrow as Fr. Tatro leads our First Friday prayers for the 2nd time this month following 8am Mass, along with Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament and Benediction.

As we prepare for this special feast, let us entrust ourselves, our families, and our parish to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

“O Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place all my trust in You.

What is a Sacred Heart Enthronement?

A Sacred Heart Enthronement is a beautiful devotion in which a family formally welcomes Jesus into their home and places an image of the Sacred Heart in a place of honor. Through prayers of consecration, the family asks Christ to be the center of their home and family life.

This weekend, families are invited to bring their Sacred Heart image to Mass to be blessed as we prepare to enthrone the Sacred Heart in our homes.

As part of our pastoral priority to strengthen the Domestic Church through Marriage & Family Formation, we encourage every family to participate in this meaningful devotion and invite Christ to reign in our hearts and homes.
