YOUNG ADULTS
Join us for Bible study on Wednesdays from 6:30-8:30pm! Whether you want to join us indefinitely, for a few months, or even just one night, we'd love to have you. Over the summer, our Bible study will be held off-site. To get the meeting address, shoot Emily an email at youth@sacredheartcor.org
This is a great opportunity to connect with other adults over a shared meal (home-cooked!) and deepen your faith!

Parables for the people
Jesus is famous for his use of parables—short metaphorical stories featuring people, places, and things utterly familiar to ordinary listeners—to get his often-countercultural point across. Typically, his parables are about the kingdom of God, which stands in stark contrast to the current world of his audience. For example, Matthew 13—which contains more parables than any other chapter in the Bible—contradicts conventional wisdom by pointing out how small things in this life—seeds and weeds, for example—are actually very big things. The parables of Jesus still teach us. Choose one to meditate on, rediscovering something wise to enlighten your day.
TODAY'S READINGS: Exodus 33:7-11; 34:5b-9, 28; Matthew 13:36-43. “Whoever has ears ought to hear.” #takefiveforfaith

Jesus spoke to them another parable.
“The Kingdom of heaven is like yeast
that a woman took and mixed with three measures of wheat flour
until the whole batch was leavened.”
Matthew 13:33

Famous tile work at the altar, with the stone of the hillside where the 5000 plus were gathered. There are two fish but only 4 loaves depicted, because the fifth loaf is on the altar, and the fifth loaf, is us!

SEVENTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
Celebrate mom-and-pop operations
However few dollars there are, parents make them stretch until payday. However uncertain the way ahead, they shoulder the decision-making for their brood. However dark the night and scary the storm, parents hug their little ones through it. Today our nation celebrates Parents' Day, honoring the grownups who make children's lives safer, happier, and healthier. While they may not multiply loaves and fishes quite like Jesus, parents do perform minor miracles of sufficiency every day across this country. They take imperfect human love and weave a blanket of protection and possibility for their tribe. Support your local parents!
TODAY'S READINGS: 2 Kings 4:42-44; Ephesians 4:1-6; John 6:1-15. "Gather the fragments left over, so that nothing will be wasted." #takefiveforfaith
