We extend our sympathy to the families and friends of Dorothy Hejduk, mother of Art Hejduk, Jr., of Mary Postlethwait, mother of Kathy Gray, and of Wayne Marik, husband of Judy, who all recently passed away. May our Lord comfort these families in their time of mourning and may Dorothy, Mary, and Wayne experience the everlasting life which Jesus promised. STEWARDSHIP WAY OF LIFE
SUNDAY COLLECTION (6/23): $4,757.86 ONLINE GIVING (6/23): $ 894.75 WEEKLY AMOUNT NEEDED: $6,125.00 OVER/UNDER: —$ 472.39 # OF ENVELOPES & ONLINE: 155 (of 405) STEWARDSHIP THOUGHT We like to celebrate the fact that we are free to “live the good life.” But Jesus calls us to a different kind of freedom. St. Paul reminds us that Jesus sets us free so that we can serve one another, share our gifts and promote God’s work here on earth to glorify His name and not honor ourselves.

Louise Kaluba BAPTIZED IN CHRIST
We welcome Addison Lynn Fenwick, great granddaughter of Barb Moore, who became a member of our faith by being baptized on Sunday, June 23, 2019. We congratulate the family, godparents, and friends
of Addy. Let us pledge our prayers and support to help her grow strong in her faith.
TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION Processions are life’s journey distilled. We move with companions, aware that Christ accompanies us, as we move to the altar for Communion or to the font for baptism, or carry a loved one to a place of rest. In Europe, the season of pilgrimage is beginning now, and tens of thousands of people are moving by foot on well-worn paths. Some take as long as six weeks to walk the last few hundred miles of the medieval pilgrimage route to the Shrine of St. James the Apostle in Compostella, in northern Spain. Those who make the journey by foot, hiking, or by bicycle, have a kind of passport stamped at villages and monasteries on the road. When they present this document at the cathedral, they are given the emblem of a pilgrim, the scallop shell of St. James. High over their heads at Mass, a huge botafumero twirls clouds of sweet incense through the cathedral. Cynics say it is to mask the odor of smelly feet. The pilgrims know better. Seeing through the clouds the happy faces of those they met along the road, they recognize a foretaste of the welcome into heaven, and the joy of meeting loved ones in the Kingdom of God.

Dial 1-800-Mass-Times or visit https://masstimes.org for information for the churches closest to your destination. Information includes phone number, address, and Mass schedule. Information is available for all U.S. parishes.
OUR DIOCESAN NEWSPAPER The Catholic Exponent is the official newspaper of the Diocese of Youngstown and an award-winning member of the Catholic Press Association. Published every other Friday, it provides “a Catholic Window on the World,” offering news, features and commentary at the diocesan, national and international levels.

CARE NOTES AVAILABLE Please feel free to pick up “Care Notes” in the Narthex. These pamphlets provide information on various topics that may help you or someone you know that is experiencing difficulty in their life.
DIRECTORY NEWS Many of you are anxious to receive your new Parish Directory. Please know that this will take some time. After submitting our activity pages & overall layout, the proof has to be approved (3 week process). When Lifetouch receives final approval, it takes 3-5 weeks for our directories to be printed.

FREEDOM TO WORSHIP On this day of the national celebration of our Nation's independence you are encouraged to celebrate 10:00 a.m. Mass at St. Joe’s. Participating in the Eucharist on Independence Day is an excellent way to let freedom, God’s holy freedom, ring in our hearts. As we celebrate let us remember to pray that God will strengthen and bless America and make our nation a haven of liberty and justice for all — born and unborn.
As we gather with family and friends this 4th of July to celebrate our nation’s independence, be sure to say a prayer for the millions throughout the world who have never tasted the freedoms that we enjoy in America, especially the freedom to practice our faith publicly. May you and your family have a safe and fun-filled holiday this week.
