Holy Father’s Prayer Intentions - Evangelization The Way of the Heart - We pray that all those who suffer

may find their way in life, allowing themselves to be touched by the Heart of Jesus.

The St. Francis parish family would like to thank Dave and Lisa Laffin of FINALLY

OURS RESTAURANT for their assistance in securing our Hand Sanitizers

which we are using in our church. These are extremely difficult to find and they were kind enough to provide us with two of their own. Thank you Dave and Lisa!

SPIRITUAL COMMUNION PRAYER My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.

What’s Happening This Week at St. Francis

St. Francis will open for public Mass on June 27 & 28 for 50 people. In addition to weekend Mass, we will also have Tuesday, Thursday and First Friday Mass.

Dear St. Francis Xavier Faith Family,

As we continue our gradual re-opening I would like to thank everyone for their consideration and patience. You may have noticed that we are moving forward with the work for our "Light the Future" project; it is going to be truly spectacular. Also, at Mass this Tuesday we will celebrate the Scrutiny for our two RCIA candidates and will complete their full initiation sometime in the near future. This Friday we will again have a 6:45 am First Friday Mass. The Sacrament of Confession is still available by appointment. Please continue to pray that as we move forward everyone will be healthy and safe. God Bless all of you, Fr. Dan

Scripture Readings 2 Kings 4:8-11, 14-16A Psalm 89: 2-3, 16-17, 18-19

Romans 6:3-4, 8-11 Matthew 10:37-42

A Family Perspective by Bud Ozar – Today’s gospel challenges us to resist the individualism of our culture. Everything we are and have is pure gift which we are expected to share especially to the “lowly ones.” What has been freely given needs to be shared freely. No strings attached.

Question of the Week- Showing Christ to Others For Adults: When have you felt more fully alive by giving of yourself to another? For Children: When have you been able to put what someone else needs ahead of what you want for yourself?

Lord, I pray that I never take my freedom for granted. May I always remember that my freedom was purchased at a very high price. My freedom

cost others their very lives. Lord, bless those who have served and continue to give their lives for our

freedom. Meet their needs and watch over their families. Amen.

With these words of Jesus in your hearts: “I will not leave you alone;

I am with you always.” -Adapted from a prayer by Gwen Costello
