366 Holy Hours were kept before the Blessed Sacrament this past week.
Vacancies: Sunday 1-2pm and Midnight – 1:00am. “If faithfully we spend our
lives at the foot of the cross and at the foot of the Monstrance, our eternity will
consist in reproducing perpetually the delightful scene of the Cenacle: on
Jesus’ bosom we shall live forever.” (Rev. Jose Trevino) Try an Hour! Please call 330-
690-9661. Reminder: our parish spends each Thursday from 3-4pm with a Holy
Hour for Priests…..Join us!
 Twenty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time
Today Jesus teaches us what really matters are the intentions of our hearts. Bad intentions
lead to angry outbursts with name calling and put downs. These are violent acts that
“defile” our relationships. No one wins; everyone loses. Examine your heart and open it to
God’s love and grace.

Please pray for our Sick especially: Betty Bartel, Lisa Gnap, Judy Kriston, Anne
Trischan, Shanon Johnson, Stephen Deibel, Joanne Ramsay, William Bedford, Carol
