For us as Christians, God is both immanent and transcendent: within and beyond. The manna with which God feeds the Israelites in the wilderness for 40 years foreshadows the Eucharist, the true bread from heaven. During their time in the wilderness, Israel learns to trust the Lord. Moses calls the people to Remember how the Lord, your God, / has directed all your journeying, in order that they might learn to depend on God. The water from the flinty rock is also a sign of God s concern for them and anticipates the living water given to us in Jesus, as seen in John 4, the story of the Samaritan woman. In the Gospel, Jesus declares himself the living bread that came down from heaven. By sharing in this heavenly food, we receive the promise of eternal life. Jesus refers to manna, the bread that came down from heaven in the time of their ancestors, but they still died. He gives something greater than manna. The bread he gives enables us to have life because of me and live forever. Paul s first letter to the Corinthians is prompted by some concerns he has about their behavior. One of the problem areas is the manner in which they are celebrating the Lord s Supper, the Eucharist. In today s reading Paul reminds them that in sharing in the cup of blessing and the bread that we break, we share in the life of Christ. Eucharist unites us with each other and with God, for we, though many, are one body. Therefore we should strive to approach the Lord s table worthily. For reflection: How does receiving the Eucharist impact my life? Do I see myself as united with the church as well as with God when I share in the Eucharist?

Summerfest parade Volunteers Needed: -Families and individuals to help plant, water, tend and harvest throughout the growing season. -Drivers to assist with produce delivery If you can help please contact Nan Onest at or nan,onest@comcast.net (Looking for volunteers & kids interested in designing our parish's float for this year's Summerfest parade. The theme for this year's float is: Cultivate the Fruit of Love. Mother Teresa once said, "The fruit of silence is prayer. The fruit of prayer is faith. The fruit of faith is love. The fruit of love is service. And the fruit of service is peace". Pope Francis has called us to be missionary disciples and to serve in our communities. So this year we are paying tribute to his call to service and to our parish garden. If you are interested in designing the float, would like to walk in the parade, or toss out candy & frisbees, please sign up after church or contact Robert Bullard at: bullarro@gmail.com. Back by popular demand is our Parish Pool Party. This year, we will be hosting it on Friday, August 1st from 7:30 to 9:30 PM at Hub Pool in Crown Point. This is a free event and all are welcomed to attend. More information will be provided in the future through our weekly bulletin.
