or adoption.
Anointing of the Sick:

Shut-Ins:

Assumption-Florian Parish Bulletin, June 1, 2025
I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the
beginning and the end. (REVELATIONS 22:13) This is a reminder of how we should
live our lives 24 hours a day, 7 days a week putting God first in all that we
do. Not only when I am at Mass and parish activities, but when I am in the
world, at work, or at school. Living gratefully and generously is an
intentional lifestyle. Every decision you make either moves you closer to God
or farther away. Choose wisely!

Mass Intention:
For Mike Kuznia by Duane & Sandra Kuznia
Lector: Catherine Budziszewski
Rosary: Larry & Ann Dziengel
Eucharistic Minister: Catherine Budziszewski & Julian Stusynski
Altar Servers: Afton, Cale & Rhett Pearson
[Jesus] said to them, Thus it is written, that the messiah
is to suffer and to rise from the dead on the third day, and that repentance
and forgiveness of sins is to be proclaimed in his name to all nations,
beginning from Jerusalem. You are witnesses of these things. (Luke 24:46-48)
Ponder: Why am I afraid to share my faith
with others?
Prayer: Risen Lord, your resurrection and
ascension give witness to God's power. May my life bear witness to God's love,
compassion, forgiveness, and peace.
Practice: Today I will be open to an
opportunity to share my faith with others.

Responsorial
Psalm: Keep me safe, O God; you are my hope.
Mass Intention:
For Hilary Pietruszewski by Ken & Carolyn Safranski
Jesus said, The glory that you have given me I have given
them, so that they may be one, as we are one, I in them and you in me, that
they may become completely one, so that the world may know that you have sent
me and have loved them even as you have loved me. (John 17:22-23)
Ponder: How do I show the world the glory
of God's love?
Prayer: Risen Lord, you are the glory of
unity, harmony, and everlasting peace. Help me to carry your love and
compassion wherever I go.
Practice: Today I will stay mindful of God's
presence in me and in all of my sisters and brothers.

Do Something Beautiful for God The
Essential Teachings of Mother Teresa
May 30 Our life of poverty is as necessary
as the work itself. Only in heaven will we see how much we owe to the poor for
helping us to love God better because of them.
May 31 Every day is a preparation for
death. By realizing this, it helps somehow, because we each have to die a
little each day. Death is nothing except going back to Him, where He is and
where we belong.
June 1 One man told me: I am an atheist,
but he spoke so beautifully about love. Mother told me: You cannot be an
atheist if you speak so beautifully about love. Where there is love, there is
God. God is love.
June 2 If you are hungry to hear the voice
of God, you will hear. To hear, you have to cut out all other things.
June 3 Let us offer everything to
Jesus-every sorrow, humiliation, discomfort. In this way, you too, can take
your stand at the foot of the Cross with Mary, our Mother.
June 4 Mary allowed God to take possession
of her life by her purity, her humility, and her faithful love. She did it so
beautifully. Let us seek to grow, under the guidance of our Heavenly Mother, in
these three important interior attitudes of the soul that delight the heart of
God and enable Him to unite Himself to us.
June 5 The thirst of Jesus on the Cross is
not imagination. I thirst, He said. Hear Him saying
it to you...and respond.
