WEEKLY MEDITATION

The Gospel speaks of the importance of finding a quiet spot in our lives where we can be alone with Christ in prayer. Like Christ, we need to get away at times from the constant demands made upon us and from the pressures that bear down on us, in order to listen to the healing voice of God and refresh ourselves spiritually. God's voice is heard best in moments of stillness. If we allow Jesus to make his home in our hearts, the power and strength of God to assist us in our living becomes available to us. Silent prayer alone with God is one of our greatest needs. Alone in His presence we should ask ourselves where we are going and what we are trying to achieve. If we don't make space for God in our lives, we are wasting our time and not seeing beyond our present activity. All of our life is sacred, but we will never understand this unless we accept our Lord's loving invitation to come away with Him and rest a while.

SCHEDULE OF EVENTS

PARISH PHOTO ALBUM Later this year we will undertake the project of compiling a parish family photo album.

PREPARATION FOR VELIKA GOSPA
Preparations have already begun for our parish feast on August 15. We are asking everyone to help in whatever way possible. Please let us know how you would like to be of help. We realize that Velika Gospa falls on a working day; therefore, we encourage you to take that day off so that everyone can participate in the mass and procession as a parish family. We await hearing from you to volunteer your help!

VELIKA GOSPA COMMITTEE MEETING will be held on Wednesday, July 30 at 7:00 P.M. All of the committee members are requested to be present.
