Music – 15th Sunday in Ordinary Time

Dear Fellow Parishioners,

This Sunday’s music lyrics can be found in this attachment. I think you’ll recognize all these songs, so sing along!

The Gospel this week is about the Parable of the Sower and I found some great songs on that topic, so I’m going to share some with you, including two to share with kids.

The first one is “Song of the Parable of the Sower” by John Hayles. https://youtu.be/-2bVgSWb7mA

These are the two to share with kids (but grownups, don’t be afraid to check them out! They’re cute and upbeat.)

“Parable of the Sower” https://youtu.be/q8WZTQv2rhE

“Seed Sower” https://youtu.be/8PB9XVEKTEI

This Saturday our confirmation class got confirmed, so in their honor I’m including a song called “The Call” by Tom Franzak. Congratulations to all our confirmants! https://youtu.be/uppefcff1yg

God bless you all and keep you safe,

Janis Cantú

Music – 14th Sunday in Ordinary Time

Dear Fellow Parishioners,

Happy 4th of July weekend!

Usually we would sing America the Beautiful or Mine Eyes Have Seen the Glory at the end of Mass for a patriotic holiday like this, but since that is when the congregation is receiving communion, it just didn’t seem appropriate. Not to mention that the congregation isn’t supposed to sing! So for all of you, I’m including a link for a “Patriotic Medley” sung by Gentri. https://youtu.be/v-27hj4z5u0

The lyrics for this week’s mass can be found in this attachment. I think they are songs you will recognize, although the one during preparation is not as well known. You can listen to it at this link:

The other two songs that I’ve chosen to share this week are:

“Hymn of Praise” performed by the Gaither Vocal Band
https://youtu.be/kivDxsLYLPs and

“You Raise Me Up” sung by Celtic Woman
https://youtu.be/Yfwlj0gba_k

Enjoy the music and your July 4th celebration!

God bless you and keep you safe,

Janis Cantú

Please Continue Your Prayers For Father Tom

An update on Fr. Tom’s procedure.

The procedure has been held off for two weeks. The doctors feel Fr. Tom’s heart is not strong enough for surgery at this time. They want to give it two weeks to strengthen his heart with medications.

Then they will review how things look then. And the journey continues…..

His heart cannot function at only 30% for very long. However, he is in good spirits.

Please continue to pray for him.
