Stewardship If then you were raised with Christ, seek what is above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God. Think of what is above, not of what is on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ your life appears, then you too will appear with him in glory. (Colossians 3:1-4) In the second reading today, St. Paul reminds the Colossians that they have been raised with Christ, exhorting them to “be intent on the things above rather than the things on earth.” We too, have been raised with Christ. Let us rejoice and be glad! Eucharistic Adoration Our parish is blessed with the opportunity to worship before the Lord in Eucharistic Adoration 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Please consider Jesus’ invitation to join him in prayer as part of your Lenten offering by spending some quiet time before the Blessed Sacrament. No appointment necessary. The Adoration Ministry is also in need of adorers on a regular basis who can commit to spending one hour a week before the Blessed Sacrament. The need is especially great between the hours of 12:00 Midnight and 7:00 a.m., and daily between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. If you can commit to a regularly scheduled hour, please contact Anne Reilly at 508-655-8516. One of the requirements of offering Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration
is that the Blessed Sacrament may never be left alone. We must
ensure that at least one person is always present before the Lord
in the Adoration Chapel in order to meet our commitments. Youth of St . Patrick Eight students from St. Patrick's parish will be attending a High School Youth Conference (Steubenville East) at La Salette shrine the weekend of July 20-22.
