Stewardship Moment: “I have competed well; I have finished the race; I have kept the faith.” (2 timothy 4:7) How many of us can say this? St. Teresa of Calcutta said, “God doesn’t call us to be successful, he calls us to be faithful.” How many times have we been blinded by the success of the world at the expense of our faith? Matthew Kelly says, “Take one minute each day to remind yourself that you are just passing through this life and will die one day; you will live more intentionally with a passion and purpose.”
 

1ST Saturday Mass and Devotions: Saturday, July 5th at Sacred Heart. Rosary starts at 7:45 am, including 15 minutes of meditation (that Our Lady asks for), Confessions at 8:00 am, Mass starts at 8:30 am. Also, the Fatima prayers will be said as well.

Looking ahead: On Sunday, July 27th, we will have Holy Land Crafts available for purchase after Mass in Carrington and Sykeston.

Made For Greatness Men’s Retreat: July 18-20 at Maryvale. During this retreat, Father Boniface will expertly unpack key aspects of deepening our lives of prayer. Men will have the opportunity to grow in relationship with the Lord God in a fully masculine setting marked by dynamic brotherhood, abundant food and drinks, powerful spiritual insights, and, of course, the transformational grace of the Church’s sacramental life. Details are available at www.fargodiocese.org/mfg-retreat or Contact Brad Gray at (701-356-7903).

 Heavenly Wisdom by Venerable Fulton Sheen: “It is not the sanctuary that is in danger; it is civilization. It is not infallibility that may go down; it is personal rights. It is not the Eucharist that may pass away; it is freedom of conscience. It is not divine justice that may evaporate; it is the courts of human justice. It is not that God may be driven from His throne; it is that men may lose the meaning of home; For peace on earth will come only to those who give glory to God! It is not the Church that is in danger, it is the world!”

Stewardship Moment: “They all ate and were satisfied. And when the leftover fragments were picked up, they filled twelve wicker baskets.” (Luke 9:17) The story of the Loaves and Fishes shows us that when you share what you have, even if it doesn’t seem like that much, miracles can happen! Do not think that your gift is too small or insignificant! Each of us has a role in God’s plan; you just need to place your trust inthe Lord. Nothing is impossible with God. You just may be the answer to someone else’s prayer.
 

Blessing of Fields: Anyone wishing to have their fields blessed, please call Fr. Leier to make an appointment and he would be happy to come and bless your fields.

On Retreat: I will be attending my annual retreat this week. I depart on Sunday afternoon and I will return Friday afternoon, just in time to celebrate Sacred Heart Parish Feast Day’s Mass and Picnic! Please pray for me as I take this time for spiritual renewal. Weekday Mass, Adoration, and Confessions are cancelled while I’m away. Rosary and Daily Readings will take place Mon-Thu at 7:30 a.m. at Sacred Heart.
Thank you! ~Fr. Leier
