JOHN’S BREAD OF LIFE FOOD PANTRY: Our pantry distributes food to those in need every Wednesday between the hours of 12:30 PM and 2:45 PM in the church hall. Everyone receiving food must be registered. Registration occurs only during the above times. The pantry serves hundreds of people weekly, with a large number being children. The economic downturn has drastically impacted our ability to properly serve our clients, and we find ourselves in urgent need of assistance in the form of either financial contributions or donated non-‐perishable food. We ask that you please inspect all donated food items for dents, rust or expiration dates since the safety of clients is a priority. We thank you for any help extended to us in the past, and implore you for continued assistance. Any food donations may be left with the receptionist at the front desk where there is also located a Pennies for our Pantry Box for those who drop off a financial contribution. Please call Joe Spicketts 212-‐564-‐9070 ext. 203 for any additional information.
REMEMBERING THE NEW TRANSLATION: It has been almost six months since we introduced
the Third Edition of the Roman Missal with new translations of various prayers and responses for the liturgy. While the community has been open and responsive to this task, we kindly remind everyone to use the provided cards and missalettes to be familiar with new texts.
MOTHER’S DAY PRAYER: Loving God, you wrap your arms around your people and show your everlasting love in the
same way a mother loves her children.
We are grateful for the love you have taught us through the mothers in our lives:
our own mother who brought us into this world, the mothers of friends who have welcomed us
into their homes and families, our grandmothers who took time for us, and the mothers who have helped us
even though we were not their children. Bless all the mothers of this world today.
May they know the fullness of love they have shared and be blessed every day of their lives.
Amen. CHILD PROTECTION: Anyone who needs to report an alleged incident of sexual abuse of a minor by priest, religious or lay person serving in the Archdiocese of New York is asked to contact Sr. Eileen Clifford, O.P. at 212-‐371-‐1000 x 2949 or Deacon George J. Coppola at 917-‐861-‐1762. Both may also be reached via e-‐mail at victimassistance@archny.org. Information can also be found on the Archdiocesan website, www.archny.org. In keeping with the Archdiocesan polity regarding sexual abuse of minors, this information is provided to ensure that our children remain safe and secure.

WORLDWIDE MARRIAGE ENCOUNTER: “This I command you: love one another.” Loving as Jesus calls us to in today’s gospel can be
difficult in our modern, busy lives. Fall in love all over again on a Worldwide Marriage Encounter Weekend. The next weekend is August 10-‐12. For more information go to www.wwme.org or call 877-‐NYS-‐WWME ext. 3.
Over the years, some of our secular celebrations have taken on immense importance at several levels. Mother's Day is one of those. Card makers and florists reap a huge benefit because of this day. Many restaurants offer
special meal opportunities. Even some Major League Baseball teams conduct special promotions tied to the day. And many children go to church with their mothers to thank God and to pray with and for them. It is a day of celebration for many, honoring the women who brought them into the world. It just happens that today's Gospel is absolutely perfect for today's secular feast. Like Jesus, what mother would not say to her children, "Love one another as I love you"? Jesus' words to his disciples were spoken at the Last Supper as they gathered around the table after he washed their feet – an example of humble service that he gave to all his followers. His words were a lasting legacy to his disciples, expressing his desire for how they should treat one another. A mother could easily ask the same of her own children. Mothers know how their children can act. Sometimes they are perfect angels. At other times is seems like they are ready to tear a brother or sister to bits. In managing a household, a mother will often work to get cooperation from her children by encouraging them to care for one another. Jesus asks the same of those who follow him. We are not always ready to love one another. Sometimes we treat other people in the worst of ways. But like a mother, Jesus keeps calling us back to care for our brothers and sisters, to treat them with respect, to recognize that we all have one common Father who is the God who created us. On Mother's Day, so many children put aside differences to get along "for mom." I know my four neices each year make a special promise to be extra nice to one another and to behave. Whether young or old, siblings with rivalries or differences so often set them aside to honor and join with mothers who gave so much. In that same spirit, as brothers and sisters in Christ, may we set aside whatever divides us. May we more truly, more deeply love another as Jesus expects, not only in this day but all the time.
