YOUTH GROUP SERVICE TRIP
Please pray for the youth group members who will be heading to Philadelphia this week to work in a very troubling neighborhood where poverty and drug use is a way of life. The teens have been working here for 22 years now and find it a very rewarding experience. Funding for this trip has come from a variety of sources including the Appeal, fundraising, and parishioner supported projects. Keep these young people in your prayers this week.

MONTHLY PRAYER INTENTION
Monthly Prayer Intention
For July:
Pope Leo underlined that truly helping someone “means being willing to feel the weight of another’s pain.” He pointed out that only when we recognize that we ourselves are the wounded man can we truly feel compassion. Lord, help us to become more compassionate. Help us not to judge or jump to conclusions that help us to try to understand others. If we cannot help them, give us the will to sincerely pray for them. Amen.
