REDFORD PICNIC:   The  Annual Redford Picnic will be held  Sunday, August 17, on the grounds of the Church of the Assumption of Mary School.  Features include full meals of either roast beef or ham from noon to 6 pm, and rides on the famous merry-go-round.

19th Sunday in Ordinary Time: We meet the Lord in the strangest places.  Elijah spent the night listening to he wind, feeling the earthquake and surrounded with fire, but the Lord was not in any of these.  He came in a gentle breeze.  We would like great events for meeting our God, but most often we stirs our hearts and minds very gently.  If we listen, we encounter the Lord.  Like Peter, we walk toward the Lord.  The Lord says, “Come!” We respond: “Maranatha! Come, Lord Jesus, and sustain our faith.”

THE FEAST OF THE ASSUMPTION: Friday, August 15, is the Feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary.  It is a holy day of obligation.  Mass of the Assumption will be on Friday at 8:30 AM and 5:30 PM.

MARRIAGE TIP: Since before Cinderella, stepparents have had a bad rap.  Stepparents can play a precarious role, trying to love as a true parent but sometimes experiencing difficulties and unsure of their job.  If you have a stepchild, pray, listen and wait to be accepted.  If you don’t have a stepchild, pray for those in step relationships  Find more Marriage Rx at www.foryourmarriage.org.
