Eighteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time August 2, 2020

In today’s Gospel, we hear the story of how Jesus fed

the crowds with just five loaves of bread and two fish.

“They all ate and were satisfied,” Matthew writes.

Jesus does similar things with the small gifts we

present to him. When we share our own gifts of time

and talent, Jesus takes them, blesses them and

multiplies them for the benefit of all.

Adoration is being held in the Chapel of the Incarnation

Monday - Friday from 9am - 6pm.

To offer your time to adore

Contact Phil or MaryAnn Everett or the Parish Office.

Do you or someone you know want to understand

how God is working in your life?

Are you Catholic and in need of Sacraments?

Sept. 3rd from 6:00pm - 7:30pm.

You are invited to an Informational Meet & Greet in

the Ave Maria Building. You will be able to meet the
