Psalm 107:23-24,25-26,28-29,30-31
R. (1b) Give thanks to the Lord, his love is everlasting.
They who sailed the sea in ships,
trading on the deep waters,
These saw the works of the LORD
and his wonders in the abyss.
R. Give thanks to the Lord, his love is everlasting.
His command raised up a storm wind
which tossed its waves on high.
They mounted up to heaven; they sank to the depths;
their hearts melted away in their plight.
R. Give thanks to the Lord, his love is everlasting.
They cried to the LORD in their distress;
from their straits he rescued them,
He hushed the storm to a gentle breeze,
and the billows of the sea were stilled.
R. Give thanks to the Lord, his love is everlasting.
They rejoiced that they were calmed,
and he brought them to their desired haven.
Let them give thanks to the LORD for his kindness
and his wondrous deeds to the children of men.
R. Give thanks to the Lord, his love is everlasting.

Gospel Mark 4::35-41 Closing Hymn
The Lord be with you. And with your spirit.
A reading from the holy gospel according to Mark
Glory to you, O Lord.
On that day, as evening drew on, Jesus said to his
disciples:
“Let us cross to the other side.”
Leaving the crowd, they took Jesus with them in
the boat just as he was.
And other boats were with him.
A violent squall came up and waves were breaking
over the boat,
so that it was already filling up.
Jesus was in the stern, asleep on a cushion.
They woke him and said to him,
“Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?”
He woke up,
rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Quiet! Be
still!”
The wind ceased and there was great calm.
Then he asked them, “Why are you terrified?
Do you not yet have faith?”
They were filled with great awe and said to one
another,
“Who then is this whom even wind and sea obey?”
The Gospel of the Lord. Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.
"May he enable us to achieve what is pleasing to him through Jesus Christ" (Hebrews
13:21).
Reflection: The pro-life movement is not primarily a response to Roe vs. Wade. It is a response to Jesus Christ. This movement
stands in the tradition of the early Christians who rescued abandoned infants from the streets, to those who established hospitals
and worked to liberate slaves. Jesus Christ came to free the oppressed; his disciples do the same.
Prayer: Lord Jesus, I am grateful that in responding to you I stand in a great tradition of disciples who have served the oppressed
in your name. Keep me strong in my response to you! Amen.
Pro-Life Reflections by Fr. Frank Pavone
A Father Looks Back
Longtime country music singer Kenny Rogers has a song called “Water and Bridges,” which high-
lights a father's pain after losing a child to abortion. Rogers told CNN that the song is not about
him, but is "really about choices you make when you're young that you pay for when you're old."
He goes on to explain, "It starts off with a young couple who have an abortion, and the guy says,
'If a father could hold his son, I could undo what's been done, but I guess everyone is living with
water and bridges.'" Counseling and healing is available for any man or woman who has lost a
child to abortion. See www.RachelsVineyard.org for details.

Stella & Walter Kelley+ promoting from June 22 to 29.
The reason for the choice of dates is that 22 June marks the liturgical
memory of Saints Thomas More and John Fisher, who died defending the
primacy of the Roman Pontiff in the dispute over Henry VIII's marriage. 29

In a message published on their website, the Bishops write that “solidarity

Religious freedom, they continue, allows the Church, and all religious com-
munities, to live out their faith in public and to serve the good of all.

Catholic Father’s Day: St Joseph and The Beatitudes
DR. GREGORY POPCAK
Blessed Are Dads Who Are Poor In Spirit
Seek to be a father after THE Father’s own heart.
Being a dad is on-the-job training. No one has it figured out. Don’t pretend you do. Go to God every day. Ask him to
teach you to be the husband and father he wants you to be; the husband and father your wife and children need you to
be.
Blessed Are The Dads Who Mourn
Be not afraid of feelings. Empathize with your family’s tears, fears, and struggles.
In scripture, “mourning” doesn’t mean “be sad” so much as it means “cultivate a compassionate heart.” It is not your job
to fix or feel judged by your wife or kids’ feelings. It is your job to be present to your wife and kids, to understand why
they feel as they do, to show that you care, and to help them work through their feelings in godly ways
Blessed Are The Dads Who Are Meek
Meekness isn’t weakness. Cultivate the humble strength of a listening heart.
In biblical Greek, the word for “meek” is “prauss, it was an adjective used to described a war horse that is not easily
spooked in battle and responds readily to its rider’s commands. A real leader listens first. The father who is authentical-
ly meek is not afraid to listen to God and to attend to the needs his wife and children bring to him especially when doing
so requires him to grow, change, or learn new skills.
Blessed Are The Dads Who Hunger And Thirst For Righteousness
Awesome Dads are on a Mission from God. Live for Him. Lead your family To Him.
Research shows that when dads model discipleship in their lives and relationship and take the lead in prayer, faith for-
mation, and character training in the home, kids are exponentially more likely to live your faith and values as adults. Be
the father that leads your family to THE father.
Blessed Are The Dads Who Are Merciful
Be a loving mentor in your home. Don’t break hearts. Mold them.
Don’t be “The Punisher.” Be a mentor and teacher. Treat your children with respect. Don’t just yell or impose harsh con-
sequences when they mess up.
Instead, teach them how to meet their needs and express themselves in good and godly ways. Put more energy into
encouraging, teaching and supporting good behavior than in punishing bad.
Blessed Are the Dads Who Are Pure in Heart
Cherish the treasure of your wife and children. Protect their dignity. Affirm their worth
Pope St. John Paul the Great taught that the opposite of love is use. Love makes people more people-y. Use makes
people into things or tools. Don’t treat your wife or kids as the “things” that exist to make YOUR life easier. Set the
standard for loving service in your home.
Blessed Are the Dads Who Are Peacemakers
Keep your house in order. Prioritize your family. Protect the heart of your home.
St. Augustine said, “Peace is the tranquility of right order.” Be the hands-on dad that makes sure your household is
characterized by respect, generosity, mutual service, and orderliness.
Blessed Are the Dads Who Are Persecuted for the Sake Of Righteousness
The world will try to undermine your effort to be an awesome dad. Be one anyway.
When your friends, family-of-origin, co-workers, or employers try to make you sacrifice what’s best for your family for
what they want, choose your family and know God the Father will honor your sacrifice.
This month, it is my prayer that every Catholic man would let the example of our patron, St Joseph, teach us to be
fathers after The Father’s own heart.
