- Sunday Scripture Readings
- Reflection on the Scriptures has become
more and more a part of basic Christian spirituality. At times
we would like to return to the Sunday Scriptures at home, but
we do not have the missalette with us. At other times we may
be interested in seeing just what came before or immediately
after the reading for the day to gain more insights.
To encourage this encounter with
the Scriptures, we will be including in the bulletin the scripture
reading references for the current Sunday and the following Sunday.
In addition, in our on-line bulletin we will have the actual
links to the readings.

- QUESTIONS FOR
THE RIDE HOME
- Pentecost
-
- Today's
Gospel passage links Jesus' gift of the Holy Spirit with his
disciples' ability to forgive sins and work in the world for
reconciliation. As you go about your routine this week think
about the following questions:
- Adults: How can I translate
my experience of being forgiven for my own sins into a greater
willingness to forgive those who have sinned against me?
Children: How can I show someone who has hurt
me that I truly forgive them and want to be their friend?
**PLEASE
NOTE: "The Needleers" will gather again on Monday,
June 5, at 1:00 p.m. in the CTK Parish Center.

VACATION
BIBLE SCHOOL - Families get your passports stamped and visas

School will take place daily from 6:00 PM to 8:30 PM, July 9
- 13, in the spacious Christ The King Parish Center. Through
hands-on activities, kids will visit Mexico, Brazil, Poland,
China and Kenya to see how kids all over the globe can worship
the same God. And along the way, they’ll learn what it would
be like to “trade places” with them. Registration begin
today. Registration materials can be picked up in the vestibule
of the church. Contact Dawn McCarthy (707-1342) or Karen Matteson

REST
IN PEACE
Please pray for Steve Hillyer who recently
passed away. He was a very dear friend of the Wasko family. We
offer them our sincere sympathy while praying that Steve and
all the souls of the faithful departed rest in the peace of our
Lord.
RESPECT LIFE
Two recently published studies show
significant long-term emotional effects in women who have had
abortions. A five-year study in Norway comparing women who suffered
miscarriages with those who had an abortion found that women
who had abortions "suffered significantly greater distress,
including anxiety, guilt and disgrace." A New Zealand study
found a young woman's risk of depression, anxiety, and drug and
alcohol abuse is raised by having an abortion, thus revealing
that abortion increases pyschological distress rather than alleviating
it.
