But when he saw how strong the wind was he became frightened; and, beginning to sink, he cried out, “Lord, save me!” Immediately Jesus stretched out his hand and caught Peter, and said to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?” -

Act of Spiritual CommunionMy Jesus, I believe that You are in the
Blessed Sacrament.
I love You above all things,
and I long for You in my soul.
Since I cannot now receive You sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart.
As though You have already come,
I embrace You and unite myself entirely to You;
never permit me to be separated from You.Music for this week:
The Living God
Though the Mountains May Fall
O Sacrament Most Holy
Eternal Father, Strong to Save

Robert Murphy Diaconate Ordination
-
On Friday, July 24 at SHSF Church, Rev. Robert Murphy was ordained a transitional deacon for the Diocese of Burlington.
Bishop Coyne reminded us that "it takes a village".
Our community is so blessed with all those who helped in his formation
and made Friday an unforgettable and special day.
Thank you to all who helped with the preparation of the church and parish center,
the decorations, the hospitality, the baking of cookies and so much more!
Thanks to the Knights of Columbus, the ushers, servers,
and to Don and Jessica for the beautiful music.
Especially thanks for the prayers and the support during these unusual times of COVID-19. We are so blessed.
Please continue to keep Robert in your prayers!
