ST. VINCENT DE PAUL JULY WINTER APPEAL

Boxes will be left at church entrances for the month of July for non perishable food and toiletries. There are also envelopes at the piety stalls for monetary donations.. Thank you most sincerely for your donation…. 2nd collection this weekend.

REFLECTION Jesus’ feeding of the 5000 is the only miracle recorded in all four

Gospels. So why is it so significant?

The miraculous feeding of such a crowd pointed to God’s provision of

manna in the wilderness for the people of Israel under Moses’

leadership.

This food foreshadowed the Heavenly bread (the Eucharist), which

Jesus offered his followers.

There is something about a hunger that we human beings

experience, which is not simply a hunger from the stomach! It is a

deeper longing that we become aware of in prayer – a hunger for the

Word that gives life! The water that never lets us thirst again!

“Take this, all of you and eat of it. This is my body……This is the cup

of my blood….the new an everlasting covenant…..Do this in memory of me.” This is the bread of life.

Have I noticed that God takes the little I have and multiplies it so abundantly that I can share it

with others in need. Do I trust God’s provision for me? And do I share it freely with others? May

we receive God’s provision with gratitude and give to others with generosity of heart.

Chris Pearson, PLT

ST. CATHERINE’S NOTICES

RCIA - Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults—

Do you have questions about the Catholic faith?

We welcome all seeking faith and a spiritual community.

We would be delighted to hear from anyone interested in exploring the Catholic faith. A new group of inquirers began last weekend. During Inquiry there is no firm commitment to become a Catholic - an interest in Catholicism, spirituality and our faith community draws inquirers together. During Inquiry we delve into our personal spiritual journey, the life of Jesus, our key Christian beliefs and our community life of faith. If you are interested in finding out more please contact Holy Trinity Parish office, or get in touch with Beverley at 9579 4712 or 0412 048 807 or Sr. Delia at St. Peter’s.

CARITAS MOVES MOUNTAINS IN NEPAL TO HELP OVER 300,000 PEOPLE

Three months after Nepal was devastated by one of the largest earthquakes to hit the country, Caritas Australia thanks and acknowledges the extraordinary support of the Catholic community in supporting the Catholic Church’s emergency relief efforts in some of the hardest hit and most remote areas of the country. Fr Pius Perumana, the Executive Director of Caritas Nepal, said “in our time of need, our global Catholic family listened, prayed and responded in solidarity. With the generosity of Catholic schools, parishes and supporters across the globe, the Caritas network helped us overcome the most challenging situations and reach the most marginalised and affected women, men and children. “Our Caritas humanitarian team has used helicopters, pulley systems and cable cars, swing bridges, porters, and sheer determination to help deliver life-saving aid. “Caritas Nepal and local communities have even moved mountains to reach people in need - literally. The drivers of our Caritas trucks have shifted rocks and rubble from hillsides in Sindhupalchowk, one of the worst hit areas, to clear the roads. “The dedication of our aid workers has ensured that, despite the many challenges caused by landslides and bad weather, aid has reached the communities where it’s needed most.” The Caritas network, the second largest humanitarian network in the world, has reached more than 300,000 people with humanitarian assistance, including emergency shelter materials, water, and hygiene kits containing aquatabs, soap, washing detergent, toothbrushes and toothpaste. Caritas Australia’s Humanitarian Emergencies Manager, Melville Fernandez, says from on the ground in Nepal: “We have so much to celebrate as an agency and community, but we are not yet through the hardest part. We are still racing to reach some of the country’s most remote communities with life-saving aid before the monsoon rains intensify. “We are now prioritising the distribution of corrugated iron sheeting so that families have as much protection as possible against the monsoon rains. “The rains are desperately needed to ensure full growth of the crops that Nepali families are relying on for food and income, yet we know the downpours will bring further landslides, mud and damage to many who are still recovering. “As we mark the three month anniversary, we are already planning for the longer term. After the emergency phase we will support people to revive their means of earning a living, build back better and restore their own communities so they can withstand future disasters. “It is the extraordinary generosity of our Catholic community in Australia, and the world over, who ensure we work in solidarity and honour the dignity of Nepal’s most vulnerable people long after the news has moved on,” said Mr Fernandez. Father Perumana, said: “It’s not easy to hold onto hope when all around you there is destruction, but the Nepali people have been very resilient, and they have shown the spirit of cooperation and compassion between neighbours. “It’s these expressions of charity that bring renewed hope to shattered lives.” Find out more about Caritas’s work in Nepal at www.caritas.org.au/nepalearthquake

GOSPEL: John 6: 1-15 Jesus went off to the other side of the Sea of Galilee – or of Tiberias – and a large

crowd followed him, impressed by the signs he gave by curing the sick. Jesus climbed

the hillside, and sat down there with his disciples. It was shortly before the Jewish

feast of Passover.

Looking up, Jesus saw the crowds approaching and said to Philip, ‘Where can we buy

some bread for these people to eat?’ He only said this to test Philip; he himself knew

exactly what he was going to do. Philip answered, ‘Two hundred denarii would only buy

enough to give them a small piece each.’ One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s

brother, said, ‘There is a small boy here with five barley loaves and two fish; but what

is that between so many?’ Jesus said to them, ‘Make the people sit down.’ There was

plenty of grass there, and as many as five thousand men sat down. Then Jesus took the

loaves, gave thanks and gave them out to all who were sitting ready; he then did the

same with the fish, giving out as much as was wanted. When they had eaten enough he

said to the disciples, ‘Pick up the pieces left over, so that nothing gets wasted.’ So they picked them up, and

filled twelve hampers with scraps left over from the meal of five barley loaves. The people, seeing this sign

that he had given, said, ‘This really is the prophet who is to come into the world.’ Jesus, who could see they

were about to come and take him by force and make him king, escaped back to the hills by himself.
