O Mother, Be Close To Us: Sunday, July 5, 2020


J.M.J.

Dear Friends in Jesus, Mary and Joseph, 

"For My yoke is easy, and My burden light." The Most Sacred Heart of Jesus opens His Divine Heart to each of us. He is ready to forgive the repentant sinner. Let us wait no longer. From hardness of heart, deliver us, O Lord!


*Thank you for the "drive-by" greetings in Emery last Sunday. Special thanks to Sandy, Grace, Jack, Theresa, Bill, Lisa, Olivia and Emma.

*July is the Month of the Most Precious Blood of Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. How much human blood is spilled so unnecessarily. Kyrie eleison--Lord, have mercy. 

*We welcome Father Thomas Hartman who will make his Retreat this week.

*Welcome to Father John Rader who now lives in Bridgewater.

*Safe travels to all as we pray for our country during these festive days.

"What is Your Question?" 
by Father Ben Miriam

Q. What are the Works of Mercy?

A. There are Seven Corporal Works of Mercy and Seven Spiritual Works of Mercy. They are great acts of charity that we are encouraged to make part of our lives. The Seven Corporal Works of Mercy are: To feed the hungry; To give drink to the thirsty; To clothe the naked; To shelter the homeless; To visit the sick; To visit the imprisoned; To bury the dead. The Seven Spiritual Works of Mercy are: To instruct the ignorant; To counsel the doubtful; To admonish sinners; To bear patiently those who wrong us; To forgive offenses; To comfort the afflicted; To pray for the living and the dead.
