Dear Fellow Parish Bulletin Reps: July is dedicated to The Precious Blood of Jesus. The Holy Father’s Intentions for July, 2019: The Integrity of Justice: That priests, who experience fatigue and loneliness in their pastoral work may find help in their intimacy with the Lord and in their friendship with their brother priests. Feasts for July: St. Junipero Serra (USA, 7/1), Thomas the Apostle (7/3), Independence Day (7/4), Maria Goretti (7/6), Benedict (7/11), Our Lady of Mount Carmel (7/16), Mary Magdalene (7/22), James (7/25), Joachim and Anne (7/26), Martha (7/29), Solanus Casey (7/30), Ignatius of Loyola (7/31). “… We have the chalice of Your Precious Blood.” ~ St. Padre Pio.
July is the time when crops planted in the spring are maturing and growing. Similarly our spiritual development is dependent upon our frequenting the sacraments and receiving the Blood of Christ.
May The Precious Blood of Jesus sustain us as we journey to our true home with Mary and the angels as our companions of the way.
