Dear Parishioners, help us to know who you are by becoming a registered member of the parish.
The Lord has revealed his saving power to all nations! Naaman, a Syrian, is healed, and lepers are made whole, but only the Samaritan returns to give thanks. Let us remain steadfast in faith and thankful for the Lord’s blessings.

Is your child enrolled in Sunday School?
HEALING AND SALVATION The readings today speak of healing and salvation. In Second Kings, Naaman, a commander of the army of the king of Syria, develops leprosy. He goes to a stranger, a prophet from Israel, when no one else can cure his disease. Much to his surprise, after a simple bath in the river, he is cured. In Luke’s Gospel, Jesus cures ten lepers and sends them to the priest. Only one, a Samaritan, returns to thank Jesus for his cure and only he hears the words, “Your faith has saved you.” The psalm and Timothy remind us that salvation involves justice, kindness, and faithfulness and forever links us with Jesus. In a world as broken as ours, both healing and salvation are necessary. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
TODAY’S READINGS First Reading — Naaman, cleansed from his leprosy, returns gratefully to Elisha (2 Kings 5:14-17). Psalm — The Lord has revealed to the nations his saving power (Psalm 298). Second Reading — If we have died with Christ we shall also live with Christ (2 Timothy 2:8-13). Gospel — Ten lepers are healed by Jesus, but only one, a Samaritan, returns to give him thanks (Luke 17:11-19).
