21st Sunday in Ordinary Time

Dear Parishioners,

The theme for today’s Scripture Readings is fidelity between God and His people. Today, we hear Joshua ask the tribes of Israel which god they will serve. They had other options, for their neighbors worshiped other gods. We have other options as well. We could serve wealth or status or power or pleasure, allowing something else to lead us and drive us in another direction. We come here today, along with our families, friends, neighbors, as a sign of our commitment to serve the living God, to follow Christ, the true Bread of Life, as we journey through life to the life promised us at our baptism.

Elementary Religious education classes has begun for students in grades 1-8, who do not attend a Catholic school. It’s not too late to register your child and join us for religious instruction.

Registration for high school students was held on Saturday, August 21 st . If you did not register, please do so as soon as possible. Classes will start soon.

Have a Blessed Week!
