"Without cost you have received;
without cost you are to give."
-Matthew 10:8
When Jesus looked out at the massive crowds gathering around Him, St. Matthew notes that His heart was moved with a deep, personal understanding because the people were completely exhausted, scattered, and leaderless. Many of us walk into church today carrying that exact same heavy sense of isolation and fatigue from our busy weeks. This Sunday, Jesus looks at our faith community with that very same gentle, unblinking gaze of love. He does not ask us to have our lives perfectly sorted out before we approach Him; He simply wants to gather us close, restore our strength, and remind us that we are never abandoned. By receiving His grace today, we are filled with the peace we need to navigate our everyday lives and share His comfort with the world.

The 2026 Annual Appeal is officially underway at our parish. This yearly initiative is more than just a collection; it is a critical opportunity for us to support the mission of the Church across all four counties of our Archdiocese. We extend our sincere gratitude to the parishioners who have already made a pledge or gift to the 2026 Appeal. If you have not yet had the chance to contribute, we invite you to prayerfully consider how you can help us meet our goal.
Our 50/50 raffle is well underway, and we're nearing the drawing on June 29. If you haven't grabbed your tickets yet, they are $10 each or 13 for $100. Every entry directly supports our parish and its ministries, and one lucky winner will take home half of the final pot. You can pick them up after Mass, at the office, or download the 50/50 ticket form linked below. Thanks for your continued support!
