Pro Life Message
In Washington, DC in 1994 Mother Teresa said that we fight abortion by teaching the mother what love really means: "to be willing to give until it hurts...So, the mother who is thinking of abortion, should be helped to love, that is, to give until it hurts her plans, or her free time, to respect the life of her child." Gustave Thibon has said that the true God transforms violence into suffering, while the false god trans- forms suffering into violence. The woman tempted to have an abortion will transform her suffering into vi- olence unless she allows love to transform her, and make her willing to give herself away. The Eucharist gives both the lesson and the power. Mom is to say "This is my body, my blood, my life, given up for you my child." Priests for life.org
Prayer to End Abortion Lord God, I thank you today for the gift of my life, and for the lives of all my brothers and sisters. I know there is nothing that destroys more life than abortion, yet I rejoice that you have conquered death by the Resurrection of Your Son. I am ready to do my part in ending abortion. Today I commit myself Never to be silent, Never to be passive, Never to be forgetful of the unborn. I commit my- self to be active in the pro-life movement, and nev- er to stop defending life until all my brothers and sisters are protected, and our nation once again be- comes a nation with liberty and justice, not just for some, but for all, through Christ our Lord. Amen! Please keep in your prayers: Please pray for: Trish & Joe Fish & Family, Doug Goodheart, Linda Berg, Terry McKeon, Nate Simon, Cissy Adams, Terry Stiles, Kenny Ulrich, Gerry Williams, those from our local area serving in the military, and the Poor Souls in Purgatory.

Care & Share 2014
Did you know that for every dollar contributed to Care and Share, 98 cents goes directly to helping fund these needs and other important ministries and services provided to Catholics right here at home? It is a fact that your support of Care and Share 2014 will touch each and every church in our eastern Montana diocese. One doesnt have to look outside of our diocese to help the poorest of our brothers and sisters in Christ! Thank you for caring and thank you for loving each other in Christ's name. Mass Intentions As Catholics, we have a long tradition of having Masses celebrated for those we wish to offer up in prayer. The Mass is the ultimate form of prayer, and each Mass is celebrated for an intention. Please consider having Masses celebrated for family and friends on special occasions and anniversaries, as well as those who are in need of prayers. Masses are also encouraged in memory of those loved ones who have died, especially on the anniversaries of their deaths. Contact Fr. Cory for more information! Stewardship

"I am praying for them..." John 17: 9
Prayer - the foundation of our Faith and the founda- tion of Stewardship. Pray in good times and in bad. Prayer is always the first best option in any situation. Pray for friends and family and for those that may not treat you very well. Pray to give praise, to thank and to ask God for help. Also, pray to see what God wants us to do.
Catholic Communication Campaign (CCC)June 01, 2014 The essential mission of the CCC is to contribute to the process of evangelization by fostering ac- tivities in relation to television, radio, internet, and other media, and through special projects of the Catholic press. An annual collection is taken up in the dioceses, which remit 50% of the funds collected to the national office. From these funds, grants are made by the USCCB Subcom- mittee on the Catholic Communication Cam- paign. The remaining portion of the collection is retained by the diocese for use in local communication projects. Thank you for your donation.
The Merciful Out Look Is? truly merciful, because it recognizes that mercy is a bilateral reality such that as we give we also re- ceivethus, it isnt a patronizing outlook; evangelization, proclaiming the good news of Christs love through an authentic love for the other per- sonthus, it is not a proselytizing outlook; A response to existential loneliness that gives a cup of love to help quench our neighbors thirst as well as our own; More to follow next week

A Prayer for Church Unity Almighty and eternal God, You have promised that there will someday be but one fold and one Shep- herd. Hasten that day, we pray You, in Your most merciful kindness and generosity. Pour the light of Your grace into the minds of our non-Catholic friends so that they may see the truth, and fully realize that the truth is one and undivided. Give them also the strength of will needed to follow in the direction of the light You give them. Let us, their neighbors and friends, not be a hin- drance to their conversion by our bad example. Rather let Your goodness be made clear to them by the virtue of our lives. Then may they finally all be brought to You, the Light that enlightens every man who comes into the world. Amen.
