TWENTY-SECOND SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
August 31, 2025

HOME BLESSING – If anyone would like to have their home blessed, please contact Father Marascalco.  He would be happy to come and bless your home.  Here is some more information about House Blessings and why we do it: Why should we get our houses blessed? – Get Fed™

SCHEDULE CHANGE – While Father Marascalco is out of the country, there will be no Vigil Masses.  These dates will be September 6th, 13th, and 20th.  

Today is a good time to check our hearts. Are we looking to impress others? Or are we quietly doing good and trusting God to see it? When we stop trying to get ahead, we make room for God to lead us.

This is a Sunday to remember that the low place is not a punishment. It is a place where God meets us, where grace grows, and where real joy begins.
