.REST IN THE LORD For several weeks we have listened to readings that have recounted just how arduous the work of prophets and disciples can be. In today’s Gospel, the Lord Jesus listens to the reports of those he had sent out “two by two” to minister to the people. After the apostles reported what they had done, Jesus, recognizing their fatigue, says, “Come away by yourselves to a deserted place and rest awhile” (Mark 6:31). Perhaps this is what the Lord is telling his disciples in the year 2018 as well. We need to pause on our journey of discipleship and simply rest in the Lord. Sunday Mass provides many opportunities for quiet times, particularly during the periods of silence following the readings. Why not take the time today to allow the saving word of the Lord to penetrate your heart during those silent times? Ask the Lord to renew you in body, mind, and spirit for the arduous work of discipleship. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

Each Christian needs half an hour of prayer each day,

except when we are busy; then we need an hour.

—St. Francis de Sales

definitely want to become Catholic, think you may want to become Catholic, not sure you want to join, but want to know what

Catholics believe, are baptized Catholic but have not celebrated

Confirmation or Eucharist,

then we extend to you an invitation to learn more about the RCIA process.

“Come and Meet Us” at an informal gathering on:

Sunday, August 19, 10:30 - 11:00 a.m. at the Parish Center, 1200 S. Arlington Ave.

Please call Barbara Verdi at 323-6894 ext. 514, or email her at [email protected] if you plan to attend.

All these things are gone forever.”

LISTENING ASSISTANCE We have been successful in locating a good Assisted Listening System. If you’re interested in trying it out, please talk to one of the ushers at your

mass. You'll be given a pocket pack, headphones, and basic instructions. For more information, you are welcome to talk to our Music Director, Joseph DeRosa.

Currently we only have 10 devices available, so they need to be checked out before mass and returned immediately after mass. For parishioners who wish to avoid checking them out, devices may be purchased through us, for about $48. The ushers can give you information about where to buy them.

We are excited to bring this capability to our parishioners. Please step up and utilize it so that it is easier for you to hear the liturgies.

For those who have recently gone to God: Marilyn Drendel, beloved wife of John and mother of sons John and Thomas and of daughters Mary Heiśe,

and Ann Haas.

FR. TONY’S RETIREMENT PARTY AT THE PEPPERMILL

We are currently taking orders for copies of the DVD from the Tribute to Fr. Tony held at the Peppermill on

June 15. If you would like one, please contact the parish office to place your pre-paid order. The cost is $10 each. Please either drop by the office or mail in your money, and we will put your name on the list. This is a great way to preserve the memories, or for those who were unable to attend, to get a taste of what the event was like.

SHOEBOX REQUEST

We would like to collect 50 shoe-boxes (lids not necessary) for next year’s Vacation Bible School. They will be great places to collect

the children’s artwork and crafts. If you have a shoebox to donate, please put it in the ‘Food for Life’ section of the church on July 15, 22, or 29. Please do not put any shoeboxes there after July 29, because that space will then revert back to the place where food is collected for the needy. Thank you!

YOUTH HOUSE NEEDS

Are you considering trading out your lightly used sofa for a new one? Do you have large good quality bean bag chairs you don’t want anymore?

Please consider donating them to Our Lady of the Snows Youth House. We’re just finishing up a pro-ject to freshen up the space in which our youth meet. The rooms are relatively small, so the pieces would need to be measured to be sure they would fit.

Please contact Susann Boley at [email protected] or at (775) 323-6894 ext. 501. Thank you!

"Human rights are not a privilege conferred by government. They are every human being’s entitlement by virtue of his humanity. The right to life does not depend, and must not be contingent, on the pleasure of anyone else, not even a parent or sovereign… you must weep that your own government, at present, seems blind to this truth."
