We only had seven competitors, but they all finished the season strong. Everyone should be very proud of themselves. Coach Shelly Weinstein thanks everyone on the track team this year: Jack S., James S., Anika S., Will H., Will S., Dylan W., Hi’ilei L., Ella B., Sydney B., Jane H., Maggie R., Virginia N., Maria M., Mary S., Gigi B., Gavin L., Benson K., and Jay N.

WELCOME DESK VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

Volunteers are needed to help out at the Welcome Desk after the week-

end Masses, especially after the Saturday 5pm and Sunday 10:30am Mass. Time commitment is 15-20 minutes after Mass. You can do one Sunday per month or more if you are so inclined. This is a great way to learn more about our Parish and School and to meet some of our fabulous Parishioners. For more information, stop by the Welcome Desk or call the Parish Office 283-1456.

St. Joseph, St. Mary, and Jesus on the crucifix are being refurbished and will return to our church in several weeks. This might be a good time to remind ourselves why we have these images in our church. The Bishops’ document, Built of Living Stones, sets out the policy for church art and architecture. Paragraph 91 states: “The cross with the image of Christ crucified is a reminder of Christ's paschal mystery. It draws us into the mystery of suffering and makes tangible our belief that our suffering when united with the passion and death of Christ leads to redemption.” Regarding other images it says: “Reflecting the awareness of the Communion of Saints, the practice of incorporating symbols of the Trinity, images of Christ, the Blessed Mother, the angels, and the saints into the design of a church creates a source of devotion and prayer for a parish community and should be part of the design of the church. Images can be found in stained glass windows, on wall frescos and murals, and as statues and icons. Often these images depict scenes from the bible or from the lives of the saints and can be a source of instruction and catechesis as well as devotion. Since the Eucharist unites the Body of Christ, including those who are not physically present, the use of images in the church reminds us that we are joined to all who have gone before us, as well as to those who now surround us.” ¶ 135

PALISADES RETREAT CENTER "Habits of a Very Loving Marriage" Married Couples' Enrichment Retreat

Fr. Pat Freitag - June 3-5, 2016

Consider this marriage enrichment retreat as an extended date-night, the chance to get away together and talk without the distractions and demands of everyday life.

The "Habits of a Very Loving Marriage" seminar is based on Stephen R. Covey's No. 1 bestseller The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People and The Five Love Languages by Dr. Gary Chapman. This marriage workshop offers a framework for applying a universal, self-discovery approach that enables couples to communicate successfully.
