It’s been nearly a month since Easter Sunday, but there’s a reason that we

celebrate this event for so long. The Resurrection changes everything. A

whole new world has been opened up to us. No

wonder God says, “Behold, I make all things new” in the vision from Revelation that we hear today. As we celebrate this liturgy today,

let us thank and praise God for all the ways in

which our lives have been made new.

A special collection will be

taken up this weekend for

the Cathedral of Notre

Dame in Paris.

Please be Generous!

Hearing Health Mission at Cathedral

Dr. Chip Goldsmith and Mobilears will conduct a

hearing health mission at the Cathedral Parish

Hall on June 22, 2019 between 3:30-5:30PM. Dr.

Goldsmith will speak briefly on the importance of

hearing health, and

then hearing tests will

be administered to

those in need at no

charge. If a hearing

loss is found, partici-

pants may have a

unique hearing aid

simulation to see whether a hearing aid would

help them. Custom fitted premium hearing aids

will be available at a heavily discounted price

with payment plans if desired. The hearing mis-

sion will tithe ten percent of its revenues to the

Church. If you plan to attend this seminar, please

call Shelley at (912) 231-5509 or email her at

shelley@rejoicehearing.com to sign up so that

we may appropriately gauge our staff and equip-

ment needs.
