Sacrament of Reconciliation Pastor s Pen Dear Parishioners, Bishop Ricken is urging us to pray for and support immigration reform as the House of Representatives considers this matter. Each of us is entitled to our opinion as to what this reform will be. But I think we all agree that the current situation from a Christian perspective is not acceptable to anyone. Please pray for and consider contacting our Representatives and urge them to support an immigration reform bill which would: Provide a path to citizenship for undocumented persons living in the US; Preserve and strengthen family unity; Provide legal avenues for low-skilled immigrants to come and work in the US; Restore due process for immigrants; Promote efforts that address the root causes of migration, such as poverty and persecution. To send an electronic postcard to your representative, please visit: http://www.justiceforimmigrants.org/ Summer2013ResourcesAugustRecessParishandAdvoca cymaterials.shtml Regardless of our political affiliation, let us as Christians work toward a just solution for this problem.

We are hoping to use SCRIP even more this year to help out our school, parish and religious education programs! Scrip can be used for gifts, as well as an alternative way to shop!
