Being Mission Minded
A couple of weeks ago we had Msgr. Benz from Cath-olic Outreach to cover our parish Masses while I was away. I will not be going anywhere but we will have another missionary with us as a part of our Diocesan Missionary Co-op Appeal this coming week . Father Alex Guimpol is a diocesan priest from the Archdio-cese of Caceres in the Philippines. The Archdiocese directly supervises 93 parishes with a total Catholic population of over 1 1/2 million. Father Alex is one of two priests from Caceres who were granted permis-sion to serve a six year term in the Diocese of Og-densburg as a way of helping Bishop LeValley cover parishes with the placement of priests. Currently, Fa-ther Alex is serving as Parochial Vicar at St. Bernard’s Church in Saranac Lake. As a part of the agreement with Caceres, our Diocese agreed to assist pastoral needs in Father Alex’s home diocese by including it in our annual missionary co-op appeal. More and more we are becoming an international church in Ogdens-burg with priests from India and the Philippines. We also have seminarians from Uganda, Kenya and our own Jude from Nigeria. In addition, have a sister dio-cese in Latakia, Syria. Our church is universal and as such we are called to be “Mission-Minded” by uniting our hearts with our brothers and sisters across the world and assist them with their needs. Please be generous next week.
Father Jay

Women’s Group Beginning Fall 2019 All women parishoners are welcomed to join “Women of Grace” - an international Catholic apostolate initiated by Johnette (Benkovic) Williams of Eternal Word Catholic Tele-vision Network. In Johnette’s words, you are invited to “come embark upon a transforming journey as you explore the great call and gift of your femininity… looking to the Blessed Virgin, Mary, who is our exemplar…” and “discover your great dignity and vocation as a daughter of God and the feminine genius that is yours by virtue of your gender.” This group will be an aid to any other apostolate or individu-al ministry you may already be involved in and will begin with a study on Living the Abundant Life and remain ongo-ing as a Women of Grace gathering for learning and grow-ing in our faith and closer to our God and one another through viewing Catholic movies and documentaries, etc. An information gathering is scheduled for Saturday, Au-gust 24, 2019 @ 9am.

Natural Family Planning
NFP AWARENESS WEEK, July 21-27 invites everyone to discover God's wise de-sign for married love. In The Joy of Love (222), Pope Francis writes that natural meth-ods "are to be promoted, since these methods respect the bodies of the spouses, encourage tenderness between them, and favor the edu-cation of an authentic freedom." Couples who choose Natural Family Planning discover these benefits for themselves! To hear a personal account, go to rcdony.org/nfp and click on "One Couple's Story." To learn more, email [email protected] or call 518-483-0459.

2019-2021 Formation for Ministry Program Is the Spirit Calling You to Lay Ministry?
Have you been wondering if God is calling you to a deeper relationship with Him and with His Body, the Church. We need strong lay leaders in our church and that means learning more about the faith which we profess. The Formation for Ministry program will begin in Adams in September with courses in scripture, history, morals and more. For Lewis County there is
also an on-line option which will allow you to take all courses from the comfort and convenience of your home. We are looking for committed Catholics who want better understand their faith and better serve the Lord. Interested? For more information speak to Father Jay or contact Cathy Russell at [email protected]
If you have had a change of address or phone number,
please contact the church office to make sure that they have the correct information for you and your family.
