Living Faith in June: Luke 7:11-17 I will praise you Lord, for you have rescued me. (Psalm 30:1) Consider a time when you felt that life was hopeless. Who did you turn to? Jesus says, Do not weep. Recall a time in your life when you may have felt the presence of Jesus or heard these words from a friend.

Because of the wonderful response to our need for furniture for the Ozanam Center (for which we are very grateful), we could really use a couple more volunteers with trucks who would be willing to pick up furniture. Hopefully we can get enough people that we would need to use each individual only twice a month. We would also be willing to discuss paying someone for the occasional pickup, mostly those that are in the outside area of our volunteers. If you are willing to volunteer or would like to discuss being paid, please call Cathie or Jim Perusek at 330-467-5762. Thank you in advance for all you do.

Why a Holy Hour? Let us take time, in the course of the week, in passing, to go in and spend a
moment with the Lord who is near. (Pope Benedict XVI)
