The Mass will take place at Guardian Angel Cathedral at 6:00 PM on Thursday, August 16, 2018. A reception will follow in Anderson Hall.We hope to see you there to welcome and pray for our new and existing seminarians as they journey toward priesthood. Our seminarians:Mauricio Espino, Joseph "AJ" Sales, Ivan Lara, Simon Tran, Rogelio Molino, Aidan Toombs, and Michael Caster (new).Special CollectionMy Dear Parishioners,On Sunday, August 19, we will take up a special collection for the rural parishes and missions within our Diocese.These parishes and missions depend on our generosity to help meet the increasing financial burdens of the upkeep of buildings, utilities and support of parish activities. Catholic parishes,

such as St. Patrick in Tonopah, support the missions of St. Barbara in Round Mountain, Our Lady of Guadalupe in Fish Lake and St. Michael in McGill.They depend on our generosity to help them provide religious education programs and evangelization programs for their parishioners; they also depend on the visits of one of our priests, assigned to a neighboring parish, for Sunday Mass. Many must travel hours each week to attend Sunday Mass.I ask for your generosity and support of these rural parishes and missions and of your sis-ters and brothers living in the Diocese of Las Vegas. Please help to keep these rural Catholic communities alive, because without our assis-tance, a Catholic presence in these communities would cease.Assuring you of my prayers, I remainSincerely yours in Christ,

+George Leo ThomasBishop of Las Vegas
