Welcome to Curé of Ars!

We invite you to join the Parish! To register as a parishioner of

Curé of Ars, go to www.cureofars.com, click on About Curé, then

select Register with Curé of Ars. (link: cureofars.com/registration)

You can also stop by the Parish Office located to the north of the

church to fill out a registration form. Once your form is completed

activities and ministries.

Called to Serve

In today’s First Reading, the Lord has His work cut out with the reluctant prophet Ezekiel. Despite Ezekiel’s best efforts to resist, the Spirit entered into him and set him on his feet. Then we hear the Lord speaking to Ezekiel, “I am sending you to the Israelites, rebels who have rebelled against me...Hard of face and obstinate of heart.” The Lord continues, “They shall know that a prophet has been among them.” In spite of himself, Ezekiel is being called to serve.

Hard of face? Obstinate of heart? These are very apt descriptions of the townsfolk we find in the Gospel. Jesus has returned to his hometown of Nazareth and is teaching in the synagogue on the

Sabbath. Many who heard Him refused to believe Him or His works. They objected that these could not come from one they knew to be a carpenter who had grown up among them, the son of Mary. It was just beyond their ability or desire to comprehend. He seemed to be so different from them.

Then Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his native place and among his own kin and in his own house.” In the end, Jesus’ full healing power could not take effect in Nazareth because of the people’s lack of faith.

If we look deep within ourselves, we might be shocked at what we see. Are we reluctant to answer God’s call to serve others? How do we treat others? Are our faces hard and our hearts obstinate? Do we treat others poorly for no reason other than they look different from ourselves? Let us ask the Lord God to open our hearts and soften our outlook. May He grant us the faith and grace to serve others to improve the quality of their lives, and to view and treat others the way that He would.

Today we celebrate the Fourth of July, Independence Day, the day we commemorate the beginning of our country in 1776. Our founding fathers were also called to serve. They willingly served and gave of themselves. To all who serve, and in a special way all those who are serving others in our war on the COVID-19 pandemic, I dedicate this song:

God Bless America

Lyrics by Irving Berlin

"While the storm clouds gather far across the sea, Let us swear allegiance to a land that's free, Let us all be grateful for a land so fair, As we raise our voices in a solemn prayer."

God Bless America, Land that I love. Stand beside her, and guide her Thru the night with a light from above. From the mountains, to the prairies, To the oceans, white with foam, God bless America, My home sweet home.

May God bless each and every man, woman, youngster and child who have served, who have tried to improve the quality of life for others. May they always be blessed by God’s presence in their lives! Amen.

Father Storey

Holy Hour and Benediction

The institution of marriage and family is under attack

in our culture today. This breakdown of marriage has

been devastating to families and society. Do you know

of marriages that are struggling? Families that need

strengthening? Do you have loved ones who have left

the faith? Please join us this Tuesday evening, July 6,

at 6 pm in the church to pray for marriages,

families, vocations and for those who have left the

faith to return to the Sacraments. This is for the

whole family. We will pray this beautiful and powerful

novena together as we call on Our Lady’s intersession

for these and your personal intentions, and have

adoration and Benediction before the Blessed

Sacrament.

Rosary Times at Curé Weekdays at 7:30 am

Saturday at 3:30 pm before 4 pm Mass

All rosaries are said in the church and all are welcome.

Help Stop Taxpayer Abortion

Your voice could help

save millions of lives. The

Hyde Amendment has

protected Americans from

funding abortion for 45

years. It’s credited with

saving the lives of over 2.4

million children to date. Now, powerful members of

Congress want to take away this law that both

Democrats and Republicans have supported for nearly

half a century. Without it, billions of taxpayer dollars

could go to abortion. That means abortions would be

cheaper, easier, and funded with our taxpayer dollars.

It is critically important for Catholics to send a strong

message before Congress moves forward to impose

taxpayer-funded abortion. Because of the incredibly

high stakes, Congress needs to hear from a massive

number of people. We need millions of Catholics to

sign the petition! Please sign at

NoTaxpayerAbortion.com and encourage others to do

the same. Thank you!

Faith: the Next Generation – Pass It On!

Boldly go where many have gone before and help pass on the Good News of Jesus Christ and our Catholic faith!

This fall, 1st through 8th-grade students will attend School of Religion classes at Curé to learn more about Jesus

and our Catholic faith. At this time, classes are planned to be in-person and we need more volunteers in the

classroom as Catechists and Aides.

Our parish SOR uses a Flipped Classroom approach:

textbook-learning is done at home with the parents

twice-monthly classes highlight 2-3 topics from the chapters

children are offered opportunities to personally know and love Jesus

For more information, check out the School of Religion webpage

at www.cureofars.com/religioused

If you are interested, please contact Bernadette Myers at 913.521.9361

or [email protected]

Classes begin September 2021!

As a long-time catechist said, “I learn so much from the

children!”

“I’m not a teacher…” You certainly do not need to be an expert on teaching or

the Catholic faith because training, materials, and support are provided.

Teens Encounter Christ

Does Jesus really have our back ALL the time? Does

He really love us that much, even when we aren’t at

our best? Does He really want to listen to us, even

when we haven’t been a good friend to Him? When

you come to a Teens Encounter Christ Retreat, you’re

going to hear some great things from other people

about Jesus, but you’re also going to get a lot of time

to talk with Him and get to know Him better too.

Teens Encounter Christ is a 3-day retreat where we

focus on the Paschal Mystery of the dying and rising

of Jesus Christ for each one of us. This is for High

School Students and graduated seniors. It will be held

at PSR on August 14-16, 2021. Cost is $110.00.

Scholarships are available. Sign up here:

Enflame Our Homes

June's theme for Enflame Our Homes is: Joyful

families SERVE. Like moldy leftovers in the back of

the fridge, our gifts and talents go to waste if we don't

use them! Service to others doesn't need to be

elaborate or expensive to have an effect on our

families. Simply noticing the needs of those we care

about and offering a small kindness is a habit that goes

a long way toward building a more joyful family. Here

is the website: archkcks.org/serve

May.

Please include in your email:

recommendations for books which members will

Your preferred date and time to meet with the

options being the third or fourth Tuesday or

Wednesday in the evening

Spiritual Pen Pal Program

With the Covid pandemic keeping everything shut

down in the prisons, there has been no spiritual

mentoring allowed in over a year. St. Dismas has

begun a spiritual pen pal program in which a Catholic

inmate is matched with an outside Catholic to help

them in their faith journey. There is no requirements to

participate other than a love for your faith. Anonymity

will be preserved. A sample letter will be given to help

you begin your correspondence. This is a wonderful

way to practice the corporal work of mercy, “I was

imprisoned and you visited me”. If you feel a call to

participate, please call Vicki Price, 816.589.1411, or

email me at [email protected]. Thank you for

giving this your consideration
