From Our Pastor�

�
Dear Brothers and Sisters,�
�
St. Paul urges us this Sunday to “be transformed by
the renewal of your mind”. As we actually come to
knowledge of the truth it can change and shape the
way we see reality. As St. Paul writes this, it is an
invitation to more and more see reality as it is actually
intended to be. This renewal of the mind takes place
as we come to know the truth of who God is and who
we are. We are made in His image and likeness. As
our minds are renewed we begin to love as Christ
loves, transformed into who we were created to be.
As a parish, I invite us to be pleading with the Lord for
deeper knowledge in this regard.��
�
Financial Update� One of the key areas for growth
that came up from the Disciple Maker Index Survey
back in February was financial transparency with the
parish. As a staff, we definitely want to foster greater
transparency and accountability in this regard. A key
piece of this is sharing our year end financial infor-
mation with all of you. We are in the process of pre-
paring this, and we look forward to sharing it with you
later in September.��
�
JPII Healing Center� I write this from the conference
I am currently attending with the healing center for
further training in healing prayer. It is only Tuesday
but it has already been an incredibly blessed week. I
look forward to sharing these graces with all of you. �

St. John’s Food Pantry �
�
St. John's Food Pantry is open! We will be handing out
groceries from 6:30 pm � 7:30 pm at the west end of the
Parish building on Thursdays. Please consider donating
pantry items in our barrels located in the gathering space
and the front of the church. If you have any questions
please contact
The Spiritual Exercises in Daily Life
The Spiritual Exercises, developed by St. Ignatius of Loyola,
offer a way to grow in prayer; to develop a real and personal
relationship with God; to see more clearly God’s presence in
creation, your personal life story and current life circumstances;
and to know Jesus more intimately, love Him more deeply and
follow Him more closely. The opportunity to pray and reflect on
the Spiritual Exercises in the midst of daily life requires a com-
mitment to pray daily for an hour on specific scriptures and
meditations, and meet weekly with a spiritual director for a
period of 9�10 months. It is preferred to begin the
Exercises in September, which then follow closely
with the Liturgical year. If you are interested,
contact Nancy Rolph for more information at
[email protected] or phone 734�649�4657�

Book 14
Follow the Lord with nothing less than the cross: offering ourselves
with Jesus as a living sacrifice and not conforming ourselves to this
world. Following him will entail derision and scorn, yet
the Lord is our help.
