Sunday’s lesson told
of Jesus and his disciples
and a time they wanted to
be away from crowds of
people. They tried going
across a lake to get away.
But when Jesus saw how
much the people needed to
hear his words, he would
not let his disciples send
them away. Rather, he
ministered to them, just as
he does to us today.
Church activities this week
include worship at 9 a.m.
on Sunday, July 27.

Shirley Langdon Cas-

Club.
She helped to establish

the Library, and volun-
teered at Illinois Valley
elementary schools where
she was known to the chil-

continued to read for ele-
mentary schools, volun-
teered at the Josephine
County Courthouse, pro-
vided flowers for the re-
ception areas of Josephine

She was preceded in

St. Patrick of the
Forest Catholic Church
On Sunday, July 27,
the 17th Sunday in Ordi-
nary Time, we will read
from John’s Gospel.
The story is about Je-
sus feeding 5,000 people
with five barley loaves and
two fish.
Then after everyone
had eaten as much as they
wanted, the disciples col-
lected the fragments which
filled 12 wicker baskets.
A miracle, yes, and
only one of many that
would take place while
Jesus was on earth.
Thus, we can be as-
sured that the Lord will
provide all we need.
