FIFTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME JULY 15, 2018

sbchurchbrooklyn@aol.com

JULY 15, 2018 2 SAINT BERNARD

In today’s gospel, the Twelve are sent out by Jesus to preach repentance and minister to the sick and those possessed by demons. These unlikely candidates for such a task are carefully prepared and taught by Jesus for this moment. They undertake their first preaching and healing tour, depending only on God for their inspiration and on the charity of others for their needs (remember that hospitality was considered a sacred responsibility in the East; it was not up to the stranger to seek hospitality but up to the prospective host to offer it.) Jesus warns them to be prepared for the same rejection he has experienced from those they seek to serve. Each of us is also chosen in different ways to participate in Christ’s mission!

Operation Backpack

Think it’s too early to think about back-to-school? Not for

Operation Backpack! Thousands of school-age children in New

York City are homeless and one of the most devastating

consequences of homelessness is the impact it can have on a child's education. Frequent

school transfers and the stigma associated with living in a shelter add up to great hardship for these children, but thanks to the overwhelming generosity of individuals like you, more than 19,400 of them began the last

school year with brand new, filled backpacks! They felt confident and fit in effortlessly with their classmates! Last

year, Operation Backpack was a record-breaking success and is now gearing up for September 2018. Saint Bernard Parish will be participating this year to help thousands of homeless

children on their first day of classes. We will have a collection box in the vestibule of the Church in the coming weeks. Won’t you please consider donating a new backpack and/or school supplies to help these children? Due to the huge turnover in the shelter system, the children who received last year are more than likely not there now.

We will be collecting through the end of July.

Music Notes

The Parish will be using a new Mass setting.

You can visit YouTube and learn these new settings by

searching:
