A REFLECTION "He said, "Come". Peter got out of the boat and began to walk on the water toward Jesus." - Matthew 14:29 When you hear Jesus calling, do you respond immediately and trust that He knows what He's doing? If so, you are walking on water! When we say "yes" to Jesus, we feel the power of his presence in our lives. We can feel the freedom it gives us! Listen how Jesus is calling you to live the extraordinary life He has in mind for you.

PLAN NOW AND COME!!!!!

) 00 years ago, a few days after Aug. 13th, Our Lady appeared to the three children in Fatima and asked them to pray the ro­ sary every day for peace, and to make sacrifices for sin­ ners. On Sunday, right after the II am Mass on Aug.13, 2017, the Legion of Mary will hold a Rosary Rally at the entrance to S1. Peter's driveway. Join us in our prayers for peace and for sinners.

Aug. 13th--On the 13th of each month, May through October, Pope Francis has granted a plenary indulgence opportunity for the lOOth anniversary of the Fatima apparitions. To obtain the indulgence, visit with devotion the statue of Our Lady of Fatima, which will be near the altar in St. Peter's, and pray in honor of the Virgin Mary. Those seeking an indulgence must also pray an our Father, recite the Creed and invoke Our Lady of Fatima. The faithful must also fulfill the ordinary conditions to obtain a plenary indulgence: go to Confession and Holy Communion, be interiorly detached from sin, and pray for the intentions of the Holy Father. An indulgence is a remission before God of the temporal pun­ ishment due to sins whose guilt has already been forgiven, which the faithful Christian who is duly disposed gains under certain prescribed conditions through the action of the Church which, as the minister of redemption, dispenses and applies with authority the treasury of the satisfactions of Christ and the saints. (from the Code of Canon Law (#992) and the Catechism of the Catholic Church (#1471).

FEAST OF THE ASSUMPTION

Tuesday, August 15th, is the Feast of the Assumption and a Holy Day. Masses will be at 8:30 am and 7:00 pm.

REGISTER NOW FOR RE CLASSES!

The parent letters and registration forms for next years Religious Education Classes are on the table to the left as you leave church. Our RE classes will begin Sunday, September 17, and will be held at the usual time, 9:40-10:45 am on Sunday mornings. It would be a great help to me if you would register sooner rather than later since I would like to plan and order catechetical materials as soon as possible. St. Peter's is blessed with an excellent religious education program with great catechists.
