KITCHEN CLEAN UP Virtually every event within St. Mary Parish involves our
Parish Kitchen. Every organization and facet of our Parish is
grateful and proud of the fact that we have such a highly
functional kitchen. To keep it running and up to health code
requires regular maintenance. It has been a busy year for our
Parish and the kitchen needs the appropriate attention.
Therefore on Saturday June 15th beginning at 8am the Men's
Club has scheduled a kitchen clean up. Not a fun gathering but
it needs to be done. Keeping in mind the old saying, “many
hands make light work”, we are asking for assistance from all
Parish members and organizations so that the project may go
quickly and smoothly. Give time as you are able and any
amount of time is appreciated. If we get enough help we plan
to be done before noon. Remember it is OUR Parish Kitchen
and we need to work together to maintain the high standards to
which we are accustomed.
Help Needed!
Summer Religious Education Volunteers!
We need more adults to help! Even if you aren’t comfortable teaching we need your gifts! Please consider helping! We
have opportunities in the classroom, office, snack and playground. As well as
special projects! We have all been given gifts to build up the Kingdom of God.
Where will you or are you using yours? Contact Rebecca at [email protected] or

Adoration of Our Lord
Corpus Christi, The Most Holy Body
and Blood of Christ—June 2
PRAYER FOR FAITH IN THE REAL PRESENCE WE COME to Thee, dear Lord, like the Apostles, saying: “INCREASE OUR FAITH.” Give us a VIVID FAITH, that Thou art really present in the Blessed Sacrament, a STRONG and ACTIVE FAITH that we may live by it. Give us the FAITH of Thy beloved disciple, John, to recognize Thee and say: “It is the Lord.” “My God and my All!” Give us the FAITH of Peter to fall on our knees and confess: “Thou art the Christ, the Son of the Living God.” Give us the FAITH of Mary Magdalen to fall at Thy Feet, crying, “Rabboni, Master!” Give us the FAITH of the father of the sick boy, that FAITH which Thou didst reward with a miracle when he cried out in tears, “I do believe, Lord! help my unbelief.” Give us the FAITH of all Thy Saints to whom the Blessed Sacrament was Heaven begun on earth. In every Communion and at every visit, increase our FAITH, our LOVE, our HUMILITY, our REVERENCE, and all good things will come to us. Dearest Lord, INCREASE OUR FAITH. (Excerpts from Jesus, Mary Joseph Novena Manual, Fr.
Stedman)

Graduation Blessing
Hear, O children, the instruction of a parent,
And give attention that you may gain understanding,
For I give you sound teaching;
Do not abandon my instruction.
Acquire wisdom! Acquire understanding!
Do not forget nor turn away from
the words of my mouth.
Do not forsake her, and she will guard you;
Love her, and she will watch over you.
I have directed you in the way of wisdom;
I have led you in upright paths.
When you walk, your steps will not be impeded;
And if you run, you will not stumble.
Take hold of instruction; do not let go.
Guard her, for she is your life.
-Proverbs 4:1-13
