RRR EADINGS FOR JULY 25/26

READING 1 2 KGS 4:42-44 A man came from Baal-shalishah bringing to Elisha, the man of God, twenty barley loaves made from the firstfruits, and fresh grain in the ear. Elisha said, “Give it to the people to eat.” But his servant objected, “How can I set this before a hundred people?” Elisha insisted, “Give it to the people to eat.” “For thus says the LORD, ‘They shall eat and there shall be some left over.’” And when they had eaten, there was some left over, as the LORD had said.

READING 2 EPH 4:1-6

Brothers and sisters: I, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to live in a manner worthy of the call you have received, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another through love, striving to preserve the unity of the spirit through the bond of peace: one body and one Spirit, as you were also called to the one hope of your call; one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all

GOSPEL JN 6:1-15

Jesus went across the Sea of Galilee. A large crowd followed him, because they saw the signs he was performing on the sick. Jesus went up on the mountain, and there he sat down with his disciples. The Jewish feast of Passover was near. When Jesus raised his eyes and saw that a large crowd was coming to him, he said to Philip, “Where can we buy enough food for them to eat?” He said this to test him, because he himself knew what he was going to do. Philip answered him, “Two hundred days’ wages worth of food would not be enough for each of them to have a little.” One of his disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, said to him, “There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish; but what good are these for so many?” Jesus said, “Have the people recline.” Now there was a great deal of grass in that place. So the men reclined, about five thousand in number. Then Jesus took the loaves, gave thanks, and distributed them to those who were reclining, and also as much of the fish as they wanted. When they had had their fill, he

said to his disciples, “Gather the fragments left over, so that nothing will be wasted.” So they collected them, and filled twelve wicker baskets with fragments from the five barley loaves that had been more than they could eat. When the people saw the sign he had done, they said, “This is truly the Prophet, the one who is to come into the world.” Since Jesus knew that they were going to come and carry him off to make him king, he withdrew again to the mountain alone.

How relieved we are when we are in need and someone recognizes

and responds to us! We know when we need rest. We do not

always know when we need to be taught. Jesus knows when we

need both and always responds.

During the months of June, July and August, our Lord’s Day Mass

schedule is as follows:

Vespers leading into the regular vigil Mass. Mass will be

followed by a reception in Our Lady of Perpetual Help

Parish Hall, where we’ll enjoy refreshments and have a raffle of

scrip gift cards for pictorial directory participants and volunteers.

Our Catholic faith incorporates many different liturgical colors for

feasts and seasons. White is the liturgical color designated to saints

who are not martyrs, and it symbolizes light, innocence, purity, joy,

triumph, and glory - all things that our saints embody! We

encourage you to wear white for St. Alphonsus Liguori’s feast

day!

The parish will provide a main dish and parishioners are asked to

contribute their favorite appetizers, salads and other side dishes for

the reception.

"I think it is hard for a lot of people to leave their lives behind for

a few days and come to NCYC. But this is SUCH a great

experience, that once you're here you forget about all that.

Rather than thinking about all the things you're missing out on
