ENTRANCE HYMN (CWB 626)

Blessed Jesus, At Your Word

Blessed Jesus, at your word we are gathered all to hear you; let our hearts and minds be stirred now to seek and love and fear you; by your gospel pure and holy teach us, Lord, to love you solely. All our knowledge, sense and sight lie in deepest darkness shrouded, till your Spirit breads our night with your beams of truth unclouded; you alone to God can win us, you must work all good within us. Glorious Lord, yourself impart, light of light from God proceeding; open lips and ears and heart, help us by your Spirit’s leading; hear the cry your Church now raises; Lord, accept our prayers and praises.

COMMUNION (CWB 656)

Come, My Way, My Truth, My Life 1. Come, my way, my truth, my life:

such a way as gives us breath; such a truth as ends all strife; such a life as kill-eth death.

2. Come, my light, my feast, my strength:

such a light as shows a feast; such a feast as mends in length; such a strength as makes his guest.

3. Come, my joy, my love, my heart:

such a joy as none can move; such a love as none can part; such a heart as joys in love.

RECESSIONAL HYMN (CWB 741)

Lord, Whose Love in Humble Service

Lord, whose love in humble service, bore the weight of human need, who did on the cross forsaken, show us mercy’s perfect deed: we, your servants, bring the worship not of voice alone, but heart; consecrating to your purpose every gift which you impart.

As we worship, grant us vision till your love’s revealing light, till the height and depth and greatness dawns upon our human sight making known the needs and burdens your compassion bids us bear, stirring us to faithful service your abundant life to share.

Called from worship into service forth in your great name we go, to the child, the youth, the aged, love in living deeds to show. Hope and health, goodwill and comfort, counsel, aid and peace we give, that your children, Lord, in freedom, may your mercy know, and live.

PARISH STEWARDSHIP PROGRAM 2019

Our Parish Stewardship Program commences in two weeks – with our Welcome Weekend. The Program recognizes that ‘Parishes are the Heartbeat of the Church’ and will challenge us to reflect on what it means to be a member of our parish community.

We encourage you to be actively involved – read the materials, listen to the speakers and follow the Program on the parish website and our parish Facebook. Reflect, pray about and discuss the themes and topics with your family, friends and fellow parishioners.

PARISH ‘OUR FUTURE’ FORUM As part of our Program, all parishioners are warmly invited to attend a special meeting the ‘Parish Future Forum’. There are 2 meeting times available as follows: Tuesday 6 August at 10.00am in the Fitzpatrick Room or at 7.30pm in the Parish Hall. This is a great opportunity to make your contribution to the discussion. You will hear about the values we hold dear, our recent achievements and the priorities we have for the future. Please mark this date in your calendar. Full Program details will be available on the dedicated Program page on our parish website – which will be updated regularly throughout the Program.

Together we pray for the success of the Program: Stewardship Program Prayer

Lord, we thank you for calling us to be your Church. Through our Baptism we are called to service and to witness.

In the Eucharist we sustain and strengthen that call. By serving others we follow your example and proclaim our beliefs.

By our Christian generosity we demonstrate our love and care. Lord, help us always to worship you as you deserve,

to grow in faith and service and to give without counting the cost.

We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen

Stewardship Reflections: “…I am a minister in accordance with God’s stewardship given to me to bring to completion for you the word of God.” (Colossians 1:25)

We are all called to evangelize – to continuously grow in our relationship with Jesus and to share it with others. We may not be called to evangelize like St. Paul, but we should look for opportunities to share our faith with those closest to us, like our family, friends and neighbors. Pray for the courage to share your faith the next time the opportunity arises.

All day & everyday Adoration in Our Lady’s Chapel

From Our Social Justice Group Our Parish Social Justice Group meets monthly to look at ways we can put the following principals of the Catholic Social Teaching into practice in our parish and our broader community. One of the principles is Solidarity. In this principle, we believe everyone belongs to one human family, regardless of their national, religious, ethnic, economic, political and ideological differences. Everyone has an obligation to promote the rights and development of all peoples across communities, nations, and the world, irrespective of national borders.

The plight of asylum seekers raises serious concerns for Catholics and others of good will. Claiming refugee status is an arduous process, and the treatment of those seeking asylum is often inhumane. This runs counter to belief in the equal dignity of all human persons and a universal human brotherhood based on the common good. The Catholic Social Teaching maintains that anyone whose human dignity is threatened has the right to flee, and the international community has a duty to provide assistance. Underlying this belief is the conviction that the interest of the human person is paramount, rather than the interest of states or national security. The Australian Catholic Social Justice Council state that unless there are compelling reasons to believe that asylum seekers represent a serious danger to the community, they should not be interned or detained.

Australian Catholic Youth Festival will be held in Perth in December this year. Young people from year 9 - age 30 are invited. The parish will provide sponsorship.

We are also looking to form a Parish Youth Council, to support Emily, our youth worker, and to offer advice and support for parish youth initiatives.

If you are interested, please contact the parish (Moreland@cam.org.au) or see one of the priests.

More information can be found at www.cam.org.au/acyf19.
