Divine Mercy Sunday

13th Sunday in Ordinary Time

July 1, 2018

12 HOUR ADORATION Friday, July 6th there will be Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament and Adoration beginning after the 8:30am Mass and lasting until 9pm on Friday. Please consider giving an hour of your time. You may sign-up on the board outside the Chapel or simply show up during the day. At 11am there is a Holy Hour for Church Vocations led by Serra Club of S.E. Kansas City. All are welcome to share in this praying ministry.

ST. REGIS STEWARDSHIP CORNER Your abundance at the present time should supply their needs, so that their abundance may also supply your needs.” This is the fourth time in 2 Corinthians, chapter 8 that St. Paul addresses the issue of giving. What Paul is trying to explain is that the motivation for giving should be similar to God’s motivation for gifting us. In the pas-sage which constitutes today’s Second Reading Paul says, “As you excel in every respect, in faith, discourse, knowledge, all earnestness, and in the love we have for you, may you excel in this gracious act also. (This scripture reflection is from Catholic Stewardship Consultants Inc.)

MILTIA IMMACULATA Militia Immaculata will meet on Tuesday, July 3rd at 9am in the Mary’s room. All are welcome. If you have questions please call Theresa Van Pelt at 554-1240 or Glen Ernstmann at 366-0431.

HOSPITAL STAYS All those planning a hospital stay or scheduling a surgery are encouraged to receive the Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick beforehand. Please call the Parish Office or speak to Fr. McCaffery to schedule a convenient time during the week or after Mass. Also, please notify the parish if you or a family member is in the hospital. This is often the only way we know about a hospital stay and allows us to attend to the spiritual needs of our parishion-ers. Please continue to pray for those who are sick and hospitalized.

MASS INTENTIONS Mass intentions are a way to remember our deceased loved ones or a special need of someone in our life. Each Mass has a designated intention. If you would like to schedule a Mass intention, please call or stop by the Par-ish Office during regular hours. A donation of $10 is suggested for each Mass. Mass intentions can be said for weekday or weekend Masses. If you would like a specif-ic date, it is best to reserve early.
