Thank you for your continued support of our parish and its many needs.
My Dear Friends in Christ,
This weekend’s Gospel strikes real gold in terms of human
experience: after teaching, Jesus feels compelled to respond to the murmurs of the crowd. How often is this a
reality that we confront: something good happens, we break new ground, achieve something unexpected, or do
what we think is right. We expect approval and excitement from the crowds of family, coworkers, friends
or acquaintances (or parishioners!). Rather, we get
murmurs. If this is what Jesus experienced, can we expect anything less?
The murmurs, however, are not what matter. Our
response defines the outcome – as for Jesus, so for us. In the midst of adversity, do we respond as Elijah first does,
praying for our own demise (in ways small and large), or do we take heart and travel to the mountain of the Lord at
the Spirit’s urging? When confronted with murmurs, do
we cling more deeply to the Bread of Life, knowing that Christ has given His Life for us? These are, indeed, the
questions that determine the grounding of our lives in Christ. May the Lord be ever present to us when we
confront murmurs!
As mentioned in these pages previously, we have put some serious effort into our parish offices over the
summer. Tile floors are freshly waxed (for the first time in
a few years), the choir room has been remodeled, cleaned, and carpeted, a dedicated community meeting
room has been created, and the front office itself has been carpeted and rearranged. There are a few other projects
that continue, most notably our air conditioning
endeavors. As of publication, all HVAC bids have been submitted and are in the process of being reviewed. I will
continue to update everyone as more information become available.
As mentioned in last week’s bulletin, we will be offering
Adoration each Thursday afternoon beginning in September, from 3:30 pm – 8:00 pm. Please visit https://
sacredheartyonkers.org/adoration if you are able to
commit to a consistent half-hour. Sign-ups will also be available in the back of the Church. Please know that if
you cannot commit to a specific time each week, you are welcomed to join us in adoration whenever you are able.
We’re only having “sign-ups” in order to make sure we
have consistent weekly coverage.
Please pray for me – and know I’m always praying for you.

Lord of the harvest,

May many choose to respond in public service
to your call offered in Jesus’ name. Amen.
