In Case of a Pastoral Emergency Next Week
Peter Siwek
Fr. Peter Siwek, our sabbatical priest, will be on vacation June 13 - 17. 

Contact information for pastoral emergencies during this time will be on his voicemail message and e-mail auto-response.
Challenges of the Baby Church
Last Sunday, Father Peter Siwek offered Part Two of a sermon series called "Challenges of the Baby Church." Though the Church is 2,000 years old, we still face many of the same challenges that the first Christians experienced.
 
The first-in-the-series message was "The Struggle for Power" and you can download a copy of it here. Last Sunday's message was "There Isn't Enough!" and you can download a copy of it here.  This Sunday, June 12 will be "Unforgivable Sins". 
 
The readings for this Sunday, June 12 are here. As a reminder, we are using the set of readings appointed as "Track One".
Parish Picnic a Huge Success!
Thank you to all who made last Sunday's parish picnic such a success!  We are grateful to all who made possible the food, games, pony rides, set-up, clean-up, and overall fun and relaxed atmosphere.
