From Mr. Brac - YOUTH
MINISTRY OFFICE
Dear Friends of St. Francis, Holy Cross and St. Kevin, We had an absolutely incredible first year of youth ministry in Springfield. This past Sunday, we had our end of the year BBQ with both the middle school and high school groups. We had a great time and shared many memories from over the year. We will be meeting periodically through the summer. Be sure to look out for announcements on social media and in the bulletins. I am excited to share that we are partnering with St. Norbert’s youth group and will be traveling to Steubenville this summer. All high school students are welcome. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you to the CORE team for their dedication to youth ministry this year. I could not have done it without you. Finally, thank you to our three pastors for their leadership and vision for the youth of our community. Peace and Harmony, Mr. Jeffrey P. Braconnier Regional Youth Minister

ST. KEVIN PARISH NURSES Blood Pressure readings will be suspended
during the Summer Months, It will resume in September 2018.
High blood pressure is a common medical condition which affects 1 in 3 adults in the United States. Because there are often no warning signs, it is a good idea to monitor your BP periodically. Hypertension can increase your risk of cardiovascular events such as heart attack and stroke. It will only take a few minutes and may save your life

Taize Prayer with Adoration July 11, 2018 - 7:30pm The practice of contemplative prayer opens us to encounter and to be formed by this love that is poured out. Taizé worship is a contemplative communal prayer service that consists of meditative singing, Scripture reading, and periods of silence in order to reach a contemplative state. It is an international movement, inspired by an ecumenical interspiritual community in France. At St. Raphaela Center, we integrate our charism of Eucharistic Adoration with this contemplative worship. Come to join us for a monthly Taizé prayer, including Eucharistic Adoration that will extend in silence until midnight after the hour-long Taizé service. Dates: 2nd Wednesday of the month from 7:30-8:30pm. Place: Chapel
All are welcome - no reservations required. Summer Directed Retreat Week/Weekend St. Raphaela Center offers retreats for an extended time of prayer and silence, accompanied by a Spiritual Director.
