Pastor's Weekly Letter 7-27-2014: Marriage and Family Life
Submitted by web.editor on Sun, 2014-07-27 21:0917th Sunday of Ordinary Time
Dear Parishioners:
Where has the time gone? We are already halfway through the summer, and preparations are continuing for the start of a new school year. At the beginning of the summer, I had great plans to rewrite the ministry handbook to make it clearer, and to formulate a new program on marriage and family life.
Thank You, Bob and Jeana!

We live in a culture that highly values youth sports. Increasingly, children are playing on select traveling teams at younger and younger ages. The value of everyone participating and learning skills is in decline.
In that way, CYO is very counter-cultural. It is not about preparing a small number of athletes for high school and college teams. It is about helping all participants to grow in faith, self-confidence, competence and empathy.

Dear Parishioners:
I want to welcome Fr. Stephen Okumu to our parish. He is preaching on the missions and will be at each mass. Please be generous in support of the missions. I am away this weekend for a birthday break.

Pastor's Weekly Letter 7-13-2014: Helping the Needy
Submitted by web.editor on Fri, 2014-07-11 21:5915th Sunday of Ordinary Time
Dear Parishioners:
For the last few weeks, people have been standing at the entrance of the parking lot asking for money. Last weekend, we had an entire family. I asked them to meet with representatives of St. Vincent de Paul Society to find out what kind of help they needed. In questioning the family, we were told they had come from SeaTac and were given the name of the parish where they could ask for help. The St. Vincent de Paul Society gave them food and a gas card.
“Black Madonna” to Visit St. Brendan Parish
Submitted by web.editor on Sun, 2014-07-06 19:39The icon of “Our Lady of Czestochowa” (“the Black Madonna”) is reputed to have been "written on Mary’s table top" from her house in Nazareth by Luke the Evangelist. She has been credited with numerous miracles and healings—both of a spiritual and physical nature. A beautiful copy of this icon has been blessed and consecrated at the monastery of Jasna Gora in Poland, where the original is kept, and entrusted to the defense of life and family.
Pastor's Weekly Letter 7-6-2014: Going Your Own Way
Submitted by web.editor on Sun, 2014-07-06 19:3414th Sunday of Ordinary Time
Dear Parishioners:
I want to welcome all of our visitors to the community for the 4th of July weekend. Hopefully, during this time, you have reflected on the gift of freedom that we enjoy as a nation. Freedom is not something that all nations enjoy. Freedom is a gift that we need to use responsibly.
Holy Rosary Social Justice Committee
Submitted by web.editor on Sun, 2014-06-29 09:08One of the most powerful themes of Pope Francis' pontificate has been the importance of working for social justice. His emphasis on Catholic Social Teaching was highlighted in his talk at World Youth Day with this appeal, "...to all who are working for social justice: never tire of working for a more just world marked by a greater solidarity. No one can remain insensitive to the inequities that persist in the world."
Shake up your life. Come join the Social Justice Committee in "solidarity", 2nd Wednesday of each month at 1PM in the Parish Office Conference Room.
Bring your light.
