A MINDSET OF SERVICE There's a lot of traveling, delivering, and visiting going on in our readings today. In Genesis Abraham cares for the needs of three mysterious travelers. The psalm responds, celebrating the kind of righteousness that Abraham practices. Then, in his letter to the Colossians, Saint Paul describes his own ministry as almost like a delivery service: he, God's steward, brings the word of God to their community. Finally, Luke's Gospel shares the well-known story of Mary and Martha, and the different ways they welcome Jesus into their home. Amid all this coming and going, we are invited to pay attention to the ways we tend to the needs of others. Each of us can ask, How am I present to God and others in my life? Copyright (c) J. S. Paluch Co.
CATECHISTS NEEDED FOR PSR! Please prayerfully discern if this is something God may be calling you towards. Both regular and substitute catechists are needed, and high school/college students are

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
There's a different pace to a summer Sunday, especially on those days when we dream of air conditioning and wave any available paper to stir the air. Yet we persist in gathering, even with so many breaks from the usual routines. We distance ourselves not only from routines, but from schedules and familiar well-worn paths. These are playful days and contemplative days. We see long-lost friends and visit almost-forgotten places. We have more leisure than any people before in the history of the world, and we need it because our lives are so care-worn and tiring. More of us walk barefoot and look up at the stars or dip our toes in the lake or sea, sing around campfires, read novels on the beach, and eat comfort food with our fingers. We see how beautiful life can be, and are more aware than usual of how God is always breaking in with signs of love. In Genesis today, Abraham and Sarah practice hospitality to their visitors, who turn out to be God dropping in. During the summer months, God practices hospitality in return, inviting us into a season of celebration. Keeping Sunday holy is a good habit to cultivate in these days when our spirits are especially receptive to God's deep desire for us to know divine love. —James Field, Copyright (c) J. S. Paluch Co

CONSOLING THE HEART OF JESUS In June we celebrate the feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. In July we ponder the feast of the Most Precious Blood of Jesus which flowed with water when His heart was pierced on the Cross. From that Heart we have the image of the Divine Mercy as revealed to Saint Faustina. Join others in a group study on the immense and unconditional love that Jesus has for each one of us and how to console Him amidst all the crisis and offenses committed against Jesus, God Himself. The study will use the book Consoling the Heart of Jesus and DVD presentations prepared by Fr Michael Gaitley, MIC. It involves individual reading and pondering during the week. Sharing insights and fellowship take place on Saturdays beginning July 28th at PSR/DVD room from 2:15-3:45pm. For more information, please call or text Anna Ligons at 270.556.4381 or email her at [email protected].
