PARISH MISSION STATEMENT: �

We, the Catholic faithful of The Immaculate Heart of Mary

Parish, in union with our Holy Father, the Pope, and our

Bishop, are called through Baptism to share in the ministry

which Jesus Christ has entrusted to the One, Holy,

Catholic, and Apostolic Church. As priest and lay faithful

in a rural area, we utilize our energy to serve the spiritual

needs of the Kingdom of God to promote a culture of life,

justice, and peace to this generation and the generations

that follow us.

PRAYER TO THE IMMACULATE HEART OF MARY

O Immaculate Heart of Mary, Heavenly beauty and

splendor of the Father, you are the most valued Heavenly

treasure.

New Eve, immaculate in soul, spirit and body, created of

the godly seed by the Spirit of God, you are the spiritual

Mother of mankind.

Pure Virgin, full of grace then and now, your whole being

was raised Heavenly in full glory, to be elevate-d above

all the hosts within the Kingdom of God.

O Heavenly Mother, Queen of Heaven and earth, I

recognize the glory of your highest title, the Immaculate

Heart of Mary!

Loving Mother, dispenser of endless blessings, you who

continually intercede on our behalf,

please present my need before your loving Son, Jesus.

(Mention your request)

O Immaculate Heart of Mary, I know that you are now

presenting my need before Jesus, for you have never

turned away those in dire need.

Mother dearest, I await your favorable answer,

submitting myself to the Divine will of the Lord, for all

glories are His for ever and ever. Amen.

A Prayer for our Military

God our Father, walk

through my house and

take away all my

worries; and please

watch over and heal

my family. Heavenly

Father, hold our troops

in Your loving hands.

Protect them as they

protect us. Bless them

and their families for

the selfless acts they

perform for us in this,

our time of need. These things I humbly ask

in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and

Savior. Amen.

Please pray for:

The First Reading is from the first Book of Kings (19:4-8).

The Lord feeds Elijah, strengthening him for his journey to

Horeb.

The Responsorial Psalm (34:2-9) A prayer of praise to God

for his goodness.

The Second Reading is from the Letter of St. Paul to the

Ephesians (4:30—5:2). The Ephesians are encouraged to be

imitators of Christ.

The Gospel Reading is from the Gospel of John (6:41-51).

The lens through which we view life makes a difference. It

also determines who we choose to learn from and what we

allow to shape our thoughts and feelings. For many, life is

simply what it appears to be, a given that either through

evolution or some other means just came to be. There is no

apparent rhyme or reason to things and things can be

dissected and understood only in terms of what they

empirically present. To the person using this lens, a tree is a

tree and a flower is a flower. Their composition and

existence can be understood only to the extent that current

human knowledge allows. Through this lens, what gives life

purpose and meaning? This lens has an essentially unknown

beginning and definite end. Once those are accepted, the

middle becomes some kind of pursuit of happiness, with

values and principles being things that are self-created and

found acceptable.

But there is a Divine lens that also exists and deserves

mention. It is found when one stumbles upon faith and

begins to see things differently. This lens is of God and

reveals a Divine Energy and Life that flows through and in all

things. Faith then shows us that all that lives come from this

one Source of Love. This is the only true lens that can give

human beings the purpose and meaning they desperately

need. From this perspective, all of life is much more than

what is immediately apparent! It now tells and reveals a story

about God generous, creative, and unconditional love! The

unfolding of the human story is the unfolding of God’s story.

What meaning our lives have when they are viewed as a part

of God’s love affair with humanity! We are indeed special.

The lens of our faith asks us to learn from Jesus Christ.

Jesus, as the real Bread of Life, shows us our eternal destiny

and completes and frames our lives. It is only in allowing

ourselves to be taught by Jesus, that faith, hope, and love take

on much greater importance. All the relationships in our

lives are now structured and ordered using God’s primary

commandment of love. Jesus, then, is not just some man

who lived at some point in history. Jesus is the incarnate Son

of God who shows us the way, the truth, and the life. Using

this lens changes things up a great deal. Looking at the

creation that surrounds you and the special unique people

you love, what is God trying to teach you about His love for

you and the eternal life He wants you to have?
