early during pregnancy or adoption.
Anointing of the
Sick: Please call the Parish Office during
serious illness or before surgery.
Shut-Ins: If you know anyone who cannot come to Church, please let the
office know, so they can be put on a visiting schedule by a Eucharistic
Minister.

priest six months prior to the desired date of marriage. If a Catholic is
contemplating marriage to a non-Catholic, the Catholic must still contact a

Assumption-Florian Parish Bulletin, June
21, 2026
“Everyone who acknowledges me before others
I will acknowledge before my heavenly Father.” (Matthew10:32) Would others know
that you are Catholic by the way you act and speak? Do you share your Catholic
faith with others? Do you defend your Catholic faith when the situation arises
or do you remain silent? Do you pray in public before meals? Pray for the
strength and courage to be a joyful witness of our Catholic faith when the
opportunity presents itself. Let us become the radiant light and bold witness
that we are called to be!

Do Something
Beautiful for God – The Essential Teachings of Mother Teresa
June 19 – Never waste a chance to become more like Jesus.
June 20 – Our lives have to continuously feed on the Eucharist. If we
were not able to see Christ under the appearance of bread, neither would it be
possible for us to discover Him under the humble appearances of the bruised
bodies of the poor.
June 21 – How can you truly know the poor unless you live like them? If
they complain about the food, we can say that we eat the same. The more we have
the less we can give. Poverty is a wonderful gift because it gives us
freedom-it means we have fewer obstacles to God.
June 22 – The woman is the heart of the home. Let us pray that we
realize the reason for our existence; to love and be loved and through this
love become instruments of peace in the world.
June 23 – A joyful heart is the normal result of heart burning with
love. Joy is not simply a matter of temperament. It is always hard to remain
joyful-all the more reason why we should try to acquire it and encourage it
grow in our hearts.
June 24 – Mary showed complete trust in God by agreeing to be used as
an instrument in His plan. She trusted Him in spite of her nothingness, because
she knew He could do great things in her and through her. Once she said “yes”
to God, Mary never doubted. She was just a young woman, but she belonged to God
and nothing nor anyone could separate her from Him.
June 25 – I once picked up a small girl who was wandering the streets,
lost. Hunger was written all over her face. Who knows how long it had been
since she had eaten anything! I offered her a piece of bread. The little one
started eating, crumb by crumb. I told her, “Eat, eat the bread!” She looked at
me and said, “I am just afraid that when I run out of bread, I’ll still be
hungry.”
