Dear Cathedral & St. Mary Mission Family,

The Conference on Catholic Liberal Arts Education hosted

here last week was very enriching for teachers, parents, and

others who attended! Speakers gave the rationale, vision and

encouragement for ‘classical curriculum’ in the Catholic

schools of our Diocese. As Fr. Marquette Academy keeps

growing in implementing this form of education, thank you to

all of you who are working to give the best to our students!

Great thanks to all of you who have been responding to our

“Faithful Living/Grateful Giving” stewardship appeal! If you

haven’t yet renewed your commitment, please do so by

mailing in your commitment card or dropping it in the

collection at Masses. Your support means so much to our

Cathedral parish, enabling all the ministries here to grow.

Every little bit counts in what you are able to contribute for the

good of all!

This weekend we welcome the “Totus Tuus” Mission Week

team to our area. They will be offering sessions for children

and youth from this Sunday, June 17th to Friday, June 22nd.

The Mission will be held at St. Michael Parish – call Jenny

Lochner at our Office if you have questions.

This week also, Fr. Aaron and I will be at Marygrove Retreat

Center in Garden on Tuesday through Thursday for the “Good

Leaders/Good Shepherds” program for priests of our Diocese.

Thanks to Fr. Dan Moll for offering morning Masses on

Wednesday and Thursday here so we could attend.

Notice the bulletin insert on our next “Witness to Hope”

dinner event on June 27th at 6:30 p.m. You’ll be able to hear

the inspiring witness of Michael & Heidi Czerkes, who joined

our parish last year. Please sign upon the Bulletin Board. God

bless!

In the Hearts of Jesus and Mary,

Rev. Msgr. Michael Steber

ELEVENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME

Jesus said to the crowds:

“This is how it is with the kingdom of God;

it is as if a man were to scatter seed on the land and would

sleep and rise night and day and through it all the seed

would sprout and grow, he knows not how.

Of its own accord the land yields fruit,

first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear.

And when the grain is ripe, he wields the sickle at once,

for the harvest has come.”

He said,

“To what shall we compare the kingdom of God, or what

parable can we use for it? It is like a mustard seed that,

when it is sown in the ground, is the smallest of all the seeds

on the earth. But once it is sown, it springs up and becomes

the largest of plants and puts forth large branches,

so that the birds of the sky can dwell in its shade.”

With many such parables he spoke the word to them as they

were able to understand it.

Without parables he did not speak to them,

but to his own disciples he explained everything in private.

— the Sunday Gospel, Mark 4: 26-34

The Tabernacle Light Is Burning This Week

For all Fathers

Father’s Day, answering the call, and the Privilege of Faithfulness

Everyone who’s been or is a dad remembers catching our son or

daughter as they jumped into the pool, or soothing a crying baby,

or helping (usually an impatient son) get his shirt over his head,

or answering the muffled “daddy?” from our daughter who has

awakened because of a bad dream.

Before you know it you are dancing with your daughter at her

wedding and watching an ultrasound of your daughter’s or

daughter-in-law’s baby. And, truth be told, it does seem as if 20

or 25 years of fatherhood has flown by in one minute and one

second.

Everyone likes to be flattered, but dads don’t need to be cele-

brated for doing what we ought to be doing in the first place.

Rather we should give thanks that God has placed these children

in our lives. We should be grateful beyond words to be able to

add to the typically far more important contribution of their

mother in raising our kids to be good men and good women.

And should we have terribly failed their mothers—consenting to,

if not actively encouraging them to abort—we can only contritely

ask for forgiveness for having not answered the call.

—Dave Andrusko, NRL News Today, June 1

May God bless all of our fathers and grandfathers this Father’s Day weekend. Thank you for all that you do!
