June “Restoration”
A FESTIVAL OF MUSIC! On Sunday afternoon, June 25 at 3:00 PM, IHM will host the 25 voice parish choir from Saint Kathryn’s Church in Hudson, NH under the direction of their pastor, Fr. Joseph Cooper for a concert of liturgical music throughout the year. This is Saint Kathryn’s first concert outside of their parish and the first one of many for us here at IHM. This event kicks off a new music concert series for our parish. Join us on Sunday afternoon, June 25 as the choir offers selections of popular hymns from the liturgical year from traditional to contemporary. It will be a wonderful afternoon you will not want to miss! Light refreshments and a meet and greet will follow the concert.

Joseph Cooper. Also, the winner of the scratch ticket raffle: Fr. Joseph Cooper. Thank you to all who purchased tickets! FEAR NOT How do people find hope in the face of suffering and death? That is the question addressed by today's scriptures. We hear of the suffering of Jeremiah and the psalmist. We hear of the death that "reigned from Adam to Moses" (Romans 5:14). We hear of the fears of the Twelve as Jesus sends them out into the world to preach and heal. Through all this tribulation one message rings out loud and clear--"Do not be afraid!" The God who saved Jeremiah and the psalmist and Jesus is fully present to save us through the gracious gift of Jesus Christ. We have nothing and no one to fear.
