Father's Day Celebration.

Thank you to all of our visitors for joining us last Friday for our Father's Day Celebrations. The weather was lovely and the sense of community was fantastic! It appeared that many dad's and pop's enjoyed the games just as much as the children (especially Dodge Ball!).

We hope all of our special Father figures had a lovely Father's Day on Sunday.

Update on Miss Bernie

Here are 10 Very Interesting Facts About the Catholic Church You Probably Didn't Know!

Actor's/Artist's Prayer - for our St Joey's School community with our Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs Performances this week.

Father, I pray today as Jesus taught the disciples to pray: “Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth.” (Lord’s prayer) What does that look like Lord, to have heaven come to earth in the realm of arts and entertainment? We say “yes” to the possibilities. 

We know that we are created in Your image (Genesis 1:26), that we too are creative beings. Father, you have wired us to create, to dream and design, to innovate and invent, to discover, to lead with new ideas, to set the trends and even blaze a new path. May we, through our artistic expressions, creatively communicate Your heart of love, mercy, and grace to a world that needs You. 

Thank you, Lord, for the opportunity to participate in Your divine plan. Whether it be story-telling on stage, screen or page, if it be dance, painting, sculpting, music, accounting or agriculture, I pray that You breathe on our works of love. May they bless and bring vibrance to our community.

We call out to You for vision and revelation of Your plan for the arts and that which entertains. Father, let us not be satisfied with earth-bound ideas of arts and entertainment, limited by the voices of our culture, but instead, Father, that we would reach for what eye hath not seen, ear hath not heard, neither hath it entered into the heart of man what You have prepared for those that love You. (I Corinthians 2:9)

We pray that our artistic expression would be filled with joy and welcome Your presence.  

May Your name be glorified in all creation.

Amen
