Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time - June 26, 2016

LITURGY 408.847.5151 OR DBARRY@DSJ.ORG

Next weekend, our Mass times change on Sunday morning. Are you ready? Have you selected a Mass to try out? Are you a meadowlark morning person or a night owl? If the former, the 7:00am might be just the Mass for you. The music will be largely old standards and have a more classical flavor. When you return home at 8:30am, you have the whole day before you. If the latter or if you have sleepy kids, maybe 11:00am suits you better. The music will be led by our Filipino groups: Himig Penoy (3rd Sunday) and Couples for Christ (1st Sunday) and our Young Adult (YA) choir. All three groups are very contemporary and amplified. If you like that lively sound, perhaps this is the Mass for you. Our 5:00pm Saturday Mass features a mellow, uplifting sound, like you’d hear on KLUV or other Christian stations. Our Sunday Night Choir likes our newer Catholic composers and a rock & roll feel. All our choirs work very hard to lead the rest of us—the Main Choir—in our musical worship.

JOURNEY Middle School

MinistryWe're switching it up this sum-mer! JOURNEY Middle School Ministry will not meet dur-ing their regular 2nd and 4th Wednesdays throughout the summer. Instead, students will meet on scheduled days for dif-ferent social and ministry activi-ties (who wants to go camping on a Wednesday, anyway?). Look for the calendar to be post-ed soon around the church!

Confirmation Year 1 and Year 2 Register your child for our Confirmation program! Applications for the 2016-2017 year are available now. Please pick up an application at the

Parish Office.

FREE CITIZENSHIP CLASSES

GROW A ROW FOR ST JOE Is your garden super abundant? Do you have more zucchini or cabbage than you can possibly use? Is your apricot or peach tree loaded? Saint Joseph Family Center (SJFC) would love to share your abundance with families who have so little. Bring your fresh produce to SJFC Monday - Friday from 9:00am - 4:00pm. Your little act of kindness will mean a great deal to a family suffering food insecurity. Thank you and God bless your caring heart and your green thumb!

4. Be a good listener. Take the time for open conversation with your children and answer their questions honestly, this provides endless opportunities to talk about caring and respecting for others. Simply lead by example and you’ll accomplish a lot.

WEEKEND LITURGY QUESTIONS/COMMENTS ~ JUNE 26, 2016

1. Jesus’ directives seem demanding and even harsh. Jesus says to let go of other pursuits or demands.

2. Jesus challenges his would-be followers to place the Kingdom first. There is an urgency in his call which admits no distractions or delay.

3. While we are often distracted by many cares, Jesus calls us to focus. As we enjoy a break from school this summer, reflect on how to keep the call to follow Jesus a priority and not be distracted. Are we too focused on tasks instead of people, or rules instead of compassion?
