PRAYER Novena Tues after 9:00 am Mass Rosary after each weekday Mass Holy Hour Thurs 1:00 pm MISSION STATEMENT We, the parish family of Our Lady of Hope, commit ourselves to continue the mission of Jesus Christ, to proclaim His Gospel, and to love one another as He loves us. We are a welcoming community of faith, guided by the Holy Spirit and centered on God s Word and the Eucharist. Through the Sacraments, prayer, and the stewardship of our God-given gifts, we provide opportunities to grow closer to God and to serve members of the community.

Our Lady of Hope This Week TRUE PEACE COMES FROM FOLLOWING THE WAYS OF OUR HUMBLE SAVIOR Each day, we pursue earthly goals such as a better job or a bigger house. If we re not careful, our heroes can become those who have achieved such things. But today s readings invite us to know the true peace that comes from following the ways of a humble Savior, who sought only to do His Father s will. 2017 FAITH Catholic-Publishing and Communications LITURGY OF THE WORD In the reading, Zechariah prophesies about the king who is to come just, meek and riding on a humble donkey. He will bring peace to the nations and have dominion from sea to sea. The second reading reminds us to not live according to the flesh, but to live according to the Spirit. In the Gospel, Jesus invites all who labor and who are burdened to find rest in Him. 2017 FAITH Catholic-Publishing and Communications STEWARDSHIP THOUGHT FOR THE FOUR- TEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME Let all Your works give You thanks, O Lord, and let Your faithful ones bless You, says the Psalmist. Stewardship it his attitude of gratitude for the many gifts God has given us. VIRTUS TRAINING-PROTECT OUR CHILDREN! Virtus is a program that gives us a specific plan in identifying and preventing child sexual abuse. The training is required of all diocesan personnel and volunteers in all parishes. If you are a volunteer and still need to fulfill this obligation check the Long Island Catholic or the Diocesan website, www.drvc.org for training sessions available in the area. Please register for the class online or stop in the Church office. Summer, for children, often means more unstructured time and maybe less supervision. Don t fall into the trap of letting social media and the internet become your child s connection for peer interactions. Commonsensemedia.org offers suggestions for safe on-line apps for children of all ages and tips for parents concerned about their children s internet use. The Office for the Protection of Children and Young People maintains a confidential phone line: 516 594-9063. We are available to help you or anyone who has been abused or victimized by someone representing the Catholic Church. All calls are responded to within 24 hours.
