Today we celebrate the Solemnity of Sts. Peter
and Paul, Apostles. It is appropriate for us to
commemorate these two pillars of our Church. St.
Augustine said some 1,600 years ago: “Both
apostles share the same feast day; for these two
were one, and even though they suffered on different days they were as one. Let us embrace
what they believed: their life, their labors, their
sufferings, their preaching, and their confession
of faith.” On this Solemnity in 2013, Pope Francis
included in his sermon the three reasons he rejoices at the lives of Sts. Peter and Paul. In the
Gospel Peter proclaims his faith in stating, “You
are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” His Holiness pointed out the first reason is faith, “Faith in
Christ is the light of our life as Christians.” He detailed the second reason as love. He cited Paul
from the second reading saying, “I have finished
the race; I have kept the faith.” Then he challenged each of us: “It is your task to go outside of
yourselves in the love and service of the holy
people of God.” His final reason was unity (not
uniformity he explained). He detailed himself as
the successor of Peter, and as Paul as well. Pope
Francis felt each of them and each of us is part of
the great mosaic of the Church. Viewed individually, we are not defined, but all together as the
Church, we present a clear picture of God’s plan.
Are you, as a steward, fulfilling your part to present the Church as one?

As we near our June 30 Fiscal year-End, we face a
projected shortfall of approximately ($50,000). While
we are extremely thankful for giving being “up” as
compared with last year, it has been a particularly
rough year for the Parish in terms of snow plowing and
heating expenses due to the long, tough winter. Any
“special donations” would be extremely welcomed and
appreciated in hopes of achieving a balanced budget.
