Missionary Appeal Next Weekend
As crazy as this seems, Missionaries are coming next weekend to do an appeal for their Diocese. I
know it is a holiday weekend and I tried to explain that to the missionary but this was the only time they had
available. I ask you to welcome the two Missionaries to Saint William Parish next Saturday and Sunday.
I understand that these priests will be making their appeal on behalf of their Diocese of Lucena in the
Philippines. If any of our Filipino families would like to especially welcome these priests to our parish,
please let me know. I am not sure what time they will be arriving but there will be a lot of activity in the
neighborhood with the 4th of July festivities.
On Saturday, July 4th, we will have our regular morning Mass at 8:00AM and then I will leave the
church open for those who want to stay cool until the Parade comes down the Avenue.
Confessions and Mass will be as usual at 4:00 and 5:00PM on Saturday afternoon.

I will praise you, Lord, for you have rescued me
Psalm 30
Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
THE LORD OF LIFE
At this bountiful time of year, our Sunday readings
teem with life and abundance. Both the first reading,
from the book of Wisdom, and the Gospel passage
from Mark assure us that God did not make death or
even will us to be ill. Illness and death entered the
world through the presence of evil, the Wisdom author
tells us. Mark’s stories of Jesus healing a
hemorrhaging woman and resuscitating a dead little
girl make it clear that Jesus is from God.
As the Son of God he does not will that anyone
suffer illness or death. In the face of such power, the
second reading, from Paul’s Second Letter to the
Corinthians, provides a stark contrast. Jesus, who
could raise the dead to new life, “though he was rich,
for your sake he became poor” (2 Corinthians 8:9). Our
gift of new life from Christ demands our response in
charity.
