Holy Redeemer Catholic Church
Our Mission Statement: The mission of Holy Redeemer Parish is to be a Catholic community centered in Christ as revealed through the Holy Scripture, Sacred Tradition and the Church's teaching authority. The Holy Spirit empowers us to reach out and build God's Kingdom as we worship, educate, serve and evangelize.
13th Sunday in Ordinary Time Paul reminds us that we are to help others who are in need. However, he also provides practical guideline for charity. We are not to impoverish ourselves in our efforts to meet the needs of others. It is a delicate balance and it is easy to feel we never have enough for ourselves. Consider what you have and what you really need. Could you be more generous to others in need?
Just as you are rich in every aspect… you may also abound in your work of charity.
~2.Corinthians 8:7
June 27th 2021 13th Sunday in Ordinary Time

Wanted to let you know that we awarded the scholarship in memory of Judy Bradley, on June 8th. Judy's family presented Alexandrea Brickey a scholarship of $2,100.00; she will be attending Creighton University studying Occupational Therapy.
We are hoping to have our annual Scholarship Tea in the Spring of 2022; this award is for a woman 25 years old or older from the South Coast. We have presented scholarships these past 2 years but unable to do so in public due to the pandemic; we will invite these winners to come in 2022 to be recognized. Our theme for the Tea in 2022 will be Fabulous 50's Par-Tea and should be alot of fun. We will announce when the applications will be available for next year and look forward to gathering with our supporters again. If you have any questions please contact Susan Kulick at 541-297-0522.
Tony’s wife, Linda, is in intensive care at Riverbend.. Both were victims of last week’s tragic act of violence. They were snowbirds from Florida and summer parishioners at the 4pm Mass.
We want to welcome Father Jorge back from his adventures. We also want to welcome any new members who have joined our Holy Redeemer family recently.

Dear Parish Family, The readings for this week show us that God wants nothing but life and goodness for us, if only we will let Him rescue us. The first reading explains that God desires life for us, not death. The second reading tells us that God desires abundance for all his children. And in the Gospel, Jesus brings a young girl back to life and heals a woman who has been suffering for years. For me personally, this week’s Gospel theme screams of restoration. Restoring us back into the people God created us to be. I came to this church over 40 years ago as a broken vessel. A product of a home filled with abandonment, alcoholism, physical and mental abuse, and divorce. Recently married to Ann and with a newborn child seriously ill, we had no other place to turn. Ann was raised in a Catholic home but had left the church. I had visited various other Christian churches mainly seeking refuge from pain. We showed up at Holy Redeemer parish in 1980 searching for some sort of peace. We sat in the back of the church for 11 years while God slowly began to heal me. In the Gospel reading, Jesus tells Jairus, “Do not be afraid; just have faith.” That is the same message Jesus sent me in the back of the church so many years ago. At first, I couldn’t believe it. I didn’t know how to trust. And then I didn’t want to believe it. I had been let down too many times. But every week I would watch regular folks like us, some rich, some poor, some young, some not so young, come to Mass to offer their lives to God. And those people reached out to us. They made us feel welcomed. And I slowly began to trust. And the healing began. Not just for me, but for my wife as well. It didn’t happen overnight, but I began to recog-nize a gift that God was offering me. And that gift was faith. Faith in Jesus. I joined the Church 12 years after we first showed up (the same amount of years the woman in the Gospel story struggled). Now this next part may be hard to understand unless you have experienced it, but while my relationship with Jesus was growing, I still struggled with God the Father. Because of my experiences my brain could not connect loving and father in the same thought. I had to go to the Father through what I called the Jesus filter. I would look at the Father through the eyes of His Son. And through that, I slowly began to trust God the Father. When Jesus tells the household of Jairus “The child is not dead but asleep” he could have been speaking of me. And maybe he could be speaking about some of you. Just like the hemorrhaging woman, we just have to reach out a little bit. She came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak….She approached in fear and trembling. She fell before Jesus and told him the whole truth. And Jesus said to her, “Daughter, your faith has saved you. Go in peace and be cured of your affliction.” Lord, give us faith to reach out and touch you so we may continue to be healed. Amen. Blessings , Jim & Ann DeLong
