FOOD PANTRY
We are fortunate at Guardian Angels to have a Food Pantry to
help with the needs of the hungry in the Westport/Roanoke area.

supplies, we also depend on the generosity of parishioners.
Current Needs in the Food Pantry: soup, cereal, canned
vegetables, dried pasta, pasta sauce, canned ravioli, tuna,
shampoo.
SCHOOL SUPPLY NEEDS
While we realize school recently ended, this is the time of year
we gear up for fall and start to stock up on school supplies for
children who will be in school in the fall. Items we will need
include the following. We will have collection baskets set up,
beginning in July.
composition notebooks (wide ruled) colored pencils

Greater Kansas City Worldwide Marriage
Encounter
We are looking forward with great anticipation to the
next Worldwide Marriage Encounter weekend. We
currently have 11 couples and one priest registered to
attend, but certainly have room for more! Please lift
them up in prayer asking that St. Michael protect them
from the traps laid by the evil one who would keep them
from growing deeper in love. The mission of Worldwide
Marriage Encounter is to proclaim the value of Marriage
and Holy Orders in the Church and in the world. We
provide couples, priests and religious with the
opportunity to enter more deeply into their sacrament
through a weekend experience designed to enhance the
skills needed for living out God’s plan for a fruitful and
loving relationship. The remaining weekends for 2019
are scheduled for July 12-14, October 4-6 and November
15-17, 2019.
Pilgrimage to Italy
There are a few last-minute spots for Fr. Ed Wills’ 15 day pilgrimage to Italy (October 3-17 2019). Get ready to enjoy 4 days in Rome and 2 full days in Assisi. Pilgrims will also visit Venice, Florence, Siena, Padua, Verona, San Gimignano, and the Italian countryside. Enjoy shopping in out of the way hamlets and wine tasting in the Tuscan countryside. Mass will be held daily in some of the most beautiful basilicas in the world, including the Basilicas of St. Francis, St. Anthony, St. Clare, St. Mark, and St. Peter. An audience is also scheduled with the Pope during the visit. Some tours just seem to be all hustle and bustle. However, free time, as well as time for prayer and reflection, will be important elements of this pilgrimage. All under the spiritual direction of Fr. Ed Wills. To view or download a brochure go to http://www.edwills.net/rome2019/.
Save the Date
The Holy Name Society will host
Dinner and Horse Races on
Saturday, August 10 at 5:00 pm
in Our Lady of Hope Cafeteria,
4232 Mercier, next door to the
church. The cost for the Taco
Plate is $6.50. This is always a popular event and all
are welcome.
Ordinary Time
The term ordinary in English means not special or
distinctive, so why do we call this current period
Ordinary Time in the calendar of the Catholic Church?
It does not mean that are unimportant. Ordinary Time
refers to all of those parts of the Catholic Church's
liturgical year that aren't included in the major seasons
of Advent, Christmas, Lent, and Easter. Ordinary Time
thus encompasses two different periods in the Church's
calendar, since the Christmas season immediately
follows Advent, and the Easter season immediately
follows Lent. In any given year, there are either 33 or
34 Sundays in Ordinary Time. Because Easter is a
moveable feast, and thus the Lent and Easter seasons
"float" from year to year, the number of Sundays in
each period of Ordinary Time vary from the other
period as well as from year to year.
We wish you a
Happy and Safe
Independence Day!!
Thoughts from Guardian Angels
4|Guardian Angels Parish Kansas City, MO
Do you Knit or Crochet, or would you like to learn how?
A Knitting and Crocheting Group meets each Tuesday
evening from 6:30 to 8:00pm at the Keeler Women’s
Center in Kansas City, KS. Come to learn or to teach.
On the first night, learn a basic stitch and decide on a
project; then join the circle of women to have fun, relax
with new friends, and weave away. Needles, hooks, and
yarn are provided. (Donations are always welcome!) The
Center is located at 2220 Central Street in Kansas City,
Kansas 66102 All are welcome.
Help Wanted
Seeking help cleaning a small house in Westport. Please call Robert at 816-786-3298.
Seeking Bowls, Pots and Pans
We are seeking
glass mixing bowls
and pots and pans
in good shape for
the Parish Hall.
These items will be
used for activities
at Guardian Angels
and for funeral lunches. Some of our current
items are quite old and need to be replaced.
Thanks for your consideration!
Therefore, with angels and archangels and all the company of heaven, we praise and glorify thy Holy Name. Beloved, In the sixth chapter of book of Isaiah, the prophet recounts his calling in a vision of the Lord God Almighty:
I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up; and
his train filled the temple. Above him stood the seraphim;
each had six wings: with two he covered his face, and with
two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. And one called
to another and said: “Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of hosts;
the whole earth is full of his glory.” – Isaiah 6:-3
In Catholic worship this is the very moment when, at every celebration of the Mass, we bow with the angels at the threshold of heaven and then kneel for our own vision of God – He who is revealed anew in the Holy Sacrifice of the Altar and made manifest in the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of the incarnate Logos, crucified and resurrected. Before the Sanctus, though, before we behold the “Pierced One” risen to new life for our souls’ Food, hidden under the appearances of Bread and Wine, the faithful make ready to enter to the Holy of Holies. The Priest begins the “Preface Dialogue” and bids us to lift our hearts high:
Lift up your hearts.
We lift them up unto the Lord.
Let us give thanks unto the Lord our God.
It is right and just. Or, It is meet and right so to do.
Then follows the Preface (unique to each Mass and commemorating the season, mystery, or occasion celebrated) wherein we glorify the Father and render thanks for the work of salvation. It is then that we leave earth. In our spirits and
with our voices we join the heavenly choirs of
saints and angels.
Therefore, with Angels and Archangels and with all
the company of heaven,
we praise and magnify thy glorious Name saying:
Holy, Holy, Holy Lord God of hosts. Heaven and
earth are full of your glory.
This is the heavenly song Isaiah heard, as well as St. John the Apostle when he wrote this heavenly vision in his Revelation. And so, the Church joins the heavenly song of eternal praise. Already, even before the Consecration of the Sacred Elements and before our reception of Holy Communion, we unite ourselves to Christ in offering our own lives to the Father. We close the song with a line from Psalm 118, “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.” It is Christ who comes to us at the altar. It is also we who come to Christ in the Lord’s Name, as we bless ourselves with the sign of the cross and go toward our own share in His Passion through our participation in the Mass. Truly, it is meet and right and just. Yours in Christ,
Fr. Ed
