11th SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME – JUNE 13, 2021
THE GOSPEL OF MARK
“LORD, IT IS GOOD TO GIVE THANKS TO YOU.” - PSALM 92
Today, in the Sunday readings, the Church returns to the season of Ordinary Time. This represents the longest
season on the liturgical calendar and continues until the First Sunday of Advent on November 28, 2021. The term
“Ordinary Time” refers to the reality that during this season we are invited to “order” our lives by hearing the preaching,
teaching, miracles, and parables of Jesus. The events of the public ministry of Jesus allows each of us to more fully
understand the call we have received to serve as faithful witnesses of the Good News and disciples of the Lord. This year,
we will hear from the Gospel of Mark in our Sunday readings. The Gospel of Mark is the shortest of the four gospels and
shows the vitality of Jesus as Savior. The miracles and parables of Jesus, found in the Gospel of Mark, remind each of us
of the dynamic love of God transforming our world of sin and sadness into a home for pardon, peace, and joy. May our
faith always be filled with the enthusiasm and joy found in the Gospel of Mark of truly knowing Jesus as our loving
Savior.
May God – Father, Son, Holy Spirit – abundantly bless your families in these upcoming weeks.
In Christ,
Fr. Ted Prentice, Pastor

WE COME FROM ALL NATIONS
From Nigeria to New
Guinea. From Maui to
Honduras, Lebanon to
Poland, Lithuania to France:
our parishioners hail from
every inhabited continent
on our planet. We came
together May 22 & 23
wearing part, or all of our
cultural garb, smiling and
united by our different
backgrounds, united by our
belief in Jesus Christ. What
began as a small group of
Jewish believers in Israel
over 2000 years ago, has
grown to become a faith for
the whole world. “...and
you will be witnesses to the
ends of the earth.” Acts 1:8
