Thirteenth Week in Ordinary Time WHO TOUCHED ME?
Text, Philip J. Sandstrom, STD c 2000, OCP. All rights reserved ___________________________________ News, Reminders and Forthcoming Events
Faithfulness of Christ, Pope Benedict XVI has declared a “Year for Priests” beginning with the Solemnity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus on June 19, 2009. The year will conclude in Rome with an international gathering of priests with the Holy Father on June 19, 2010. With the announcement of this Year for Priests, the Pope has declared St. John Vianney the Universal Patron of Priests on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the death of the Cure d’Ars. Please pray for our priests that they might always be faithful to their sacred calling. THE FILIPINO COMMISSION OF THE DIOCESE OF RICHMOND invites you to join us in our Annual Filipino Liturgical Celebration at the Roanoke Civic Center on July 11. The celebrant is Bishop DiLorenzo. For information on transportation, Call Marilyn at (757) 275-5026.
2ND ANNUAL
ITALIAN FESTIVAL will be held on Saturday, MINISTRY FOR PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES Did you know that 1 out of 5 members of our parish has some type of disabling condition? That is 20%! Please be aware of your surroundings and lend a helping hand. We are blessed to have several parishioners who are voluntarily serving as your Parish Advocates. A Parish Advocate is someone who acts on behalf of persons with disabilities to ensure that all are invited to fully participate and share in the life of our church community. We are all children of God and we have all been given a gift. How can we help you? We meet once a month and invite you to join us. For more info call Susan Perron at (757) 499-9718 or the church office at (757) 497-8330. SMALL FAITH COMMUNITIES Participation in a small faith community raises your awareness of what scripture says and how it fits into your life. You will be able to discuss with others the problems and challenges you are experiencing in your Christian journey. Some Small Faith Communities continue throughout the year. If you would like to join one that meets weekly to discuss the Sunday readings call Elaine at (757) 424-1558 or email her at AED999@hotmail.com . CD MINISTRY We now have two racks, one in the Commons and one in the old spot, the corridor outside the Commons leading to the side parking lot and classrooms. So remember to check on both racks for CD titles. COUPLE TO COUPLE MINISTRY The adult faith formation office is preparing to begin a new marriage ministry. We are looking for mature married couples to mentor new young marrieds. We are looking for couples to support Marriage Encounter too. Have you ever said to yourselves, “If only someone had told me when I was first married . . .” Consider becoming a volunteer to “talk and walk” with young marrieds. For more information, contact Dr. Bob or leave a message at 449-4494, x309. SAINT GREGORY THE GREAT CATHOLIC SCHOOL has announced the establishment of an innovative Middle School Gifted Resource Program, beginning in August 2009.

About us... Our parish community was founded in the year 1957. In commemoration of our 50-year Anniversary in 2007, the parish community celebrated the "Jubilee Year" by having a whole variety of special events throughout the year. |
“Talitha,
koum.” Both the suffering woman and the young girl revive with the healing
touch of Jesus. Here, faith in Christ Jesus, son of God, conquers sickness
and death. Today we look to the church’s faith to help us overcome death and
sin. Here, God’s bride, the church, looks to the Lord’s generosity for
healing and salvation. In the Eucharist, Jesus again asks, “Who touches me?”
We do Lord. Help us! Save us!
