Hello everybody!
This Friday, June 19, we observe Juneteenth, commemorating the end of slavery in the United States and celebrating freedom, resilience, and the ongoing pursuit of justice and equality for all. Our parish office will be closed in observance of the holiday, and daily Mass will be celebrated at 10:00 a.m. As people of faith, we give thanks for the dignity of every human person and pray that we may continue to build a society marked by respect, reconciliation, and peace.
This weekend, we also celebrate Father's Day and will have a special blessing at the end of mass. We give thanks for the fathers, grandfathers, godfathers, and father figures who have loved, guided, protected, and sacrificed for those entrusted to their care. We remember with gratitude the ways they reflect the steadfast love of our Father in heaven. We also hold in prayer those for whom this day carries sorrow: those who mourn the loss of a father, those who long to be fathers, those whose relationships with their fathers are strained, and those who carry other quiet burdens. May God's grace and peace be with each of them.
Finally, a reminder that Baby Bottle Boomerang donations are due back this weekend. Thank you for your generosity in supporting women and men in the Louisville area who are facing an unexpected pregnancy. Through your gifts, Little Way Pregnancy Resource Center is able to provide resources, encouragement, and compassionate care to those who need it most.
Thank you for the many ways you continue to live out the Gospel through prayer, service, and generosity. May God bless you and those you love!
Peace,
Fr. Jeff
