Stewardship Bulletin Bit“Everyone who acknowledges me before others I will acknowledge before my heavenly Father.”
—Matthew 10:32
Would others know that you are Catholic by the way you act and speak? Do you share your Catholic faith with others? Do you defend your Catholic faith when the situation arises or do you remain silent? Do you pray in public before meals? Pray for the strength and courage to be a joyful witness of our Catholic faith when the opportunity presents itself. Let us become the radiant light and bold witness that we are called to be!

Please be aware that some emails are being sent from scammers claiming to be some of our priests and office staff. Names are
being pulled from parish and diocesan websites to create fake email (often Gmail) accounts.You will notice the email address may have some correct info, though in an unfamiliar form with additional characters, numbers or periods. Most will ask you to contact them or send information.Please do not reply to any suspicious emails. If you are in doubt, contact the person the email is claiming to be from by using an alternate contact method. At no time will our priests, deacons, religious or diocesan staff contact you seeking Google Play cards, iTunes cards or any other form of personal financial assistance.
Let us praise those fathers who have striven to balance the demands of work, marriage, and children with an honest
awareness of both joy and sacrifice. Let us praise those fathers who, lacking a good model for a father,
have worked to become a worthy and virtuous father. Let us praise those fathers who, by their own account, were not always
there for their children, but who continue to offer those children, now grown, their love and support. As well, let us pray for those fathers
who have been wounded by words and actions of their children. Let us praise those fathers who, despite marital discord,
have remained in their children’s lives.Let us praise those fathers whose children are adopted, and whose
love and support has nurtured a thriving life.Let us praise those fathers who, as stepfathers, freely chose the obligation
of fatherhood and earned their step children’s love and respect.Let us praise those fathers who have lost a child to death,
and continue to hold the child in their heart.Let us praise those men who have no children, but cherish the next
generation as if they were their own. And let us praise those men who have “fathered” us in their role as mentors and guides.
Let us praise those men who are about to become fathers; may they openly delight in their children.
And let us praise those fathers who have died, but live on in our memory and whose love continues to nurture us.
