BODY
and BLOOD OF CHRIST |
|
The
bishops’ stewardship pastoral asks, “And what do Christians bring to the
Eucharistic celebration and join there
with Jesus’ offering?” The answer: “Their lives as Christian
disciples; their personal vocations and the stewardship they have exercised
regarding them; their individual contributions to the great work of restoring
all things in Christ.” |

WHAT IS A DAD? |
|
A dad is a person who is loving and
kind, and often he knows what you have on your mind. He’s someone who listens, suggests, and
defends ~ A dad can be one of your
best friends! He’s proud of your triumphs, but when
things go wrong, A dad can be patient and helpful and strong. In all that you do, a dad’s love plays a
part ~ There’s always a place for him deep in your heart ~ And each year that passes, you’re
even more glad, more grateful and proud just to call him your dad! Thank you, Dad…for listening and caring,
for giving and sharing, but, especially, for just being you! Happy Father’s Day! |
