When the Sabbath came, He began to preach in the synagogue, and many who heard him were astonished. They said, “Where did this man get all this? ...Is he not the carpenter, the son of Mary, and the brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon?”

And they took offense at him. Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his native place and among his own kin and in his own house.”

My Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

No doubt you have heard of the recent Supreme Court’s decision regarding “same-sex” marriage. This week I am providing a 2-page bulletin insert which gives factual Catholic information to help us respond to this decision in faith and hope. The full text of both the Catholic Conference of Ohio document and the one is-sued by the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops has been re-printed for you. Please read both documents.

I look forward to joining you at the picnic and the Parish PRIDE days later this month. Details of these events are on page 6 of today’s bulletin.

May God’s Blessings be yours this week. Father Ireland
