The "Good" News

 

 

In today's Gospel Jesus was in the Temple area and spoke the "Good News" to the Jews. At the end of today's Gospel we hear how they responded:

"So they picked up stones to throw at him."

So if the Good News is preach well here, there are plenty of stones to throw.

From the Parish Mission Monday:

Dan has lunch at St. Columbkille Catholic School

Today our Parish Mission leader had lunch

at school with the 7th and 8th grade students.

 He showed pictures of his family.

He chatted with the guys.

He visited also visited a few classrooms. He even got caught in a crowd of 5th graders lining up for gym. They tried to get him to run the Pacer with them, but didn't have any luck at that.

Watchful and Alert

Why was a church full of K-8

students so attentive and watchful?

 

 Juggling fire can definately get attention.

Parish Mission leader Dan DeMatte spoke and interacted with the

school students this morning as they got to know our mission leader.

The Parish Mission continues every night through Thursday.

Mass: 6:15 p.m.

Mission: 7:00 p.m.
