the sick were made well. Come to our aid now,

respond to our prayers. Amen.

A CALL TO HOLINESS BY POPE FRANCIS
169. Discernment is necessary not only at extraordinary times, when we need to resolve grave problems and make crucial decisions. It is a means of spiritual combat for helping us to follow the Lord more faithfully. We need it at all times, to help us recognize God’s timetable, lest we fail to heed the promptings of his grace and disregard his invitation to grow. Often discernment is exercised in small and apparently irrelevant things, since greatness of spirit is manifested in simple everyday realities.[124] It involves striving untrammeled for all that is great, better and more beautiful, while at the same time being concerned for the little things, for each day’s responsibilities and commitments. For this reason, I ask all Christians not to omit, in dialogue with the Lord, a sincere daily “examination of conscience”. Discernment also enables us to recognize the concrete means that the Lord provides in his mysterious and loving plan, to make us move beyond mere good intentions.
THE FIRST COMMUNION RETREAT will be on Friday, July 31st from 6:30-8:30 PM at Christ the King for our six parishes.
FIRST COMMUNION MASS will be on
Saturday, August 1st at 10:00 AM at Christ the King for our six parishes.
