*****Today we are reminded that Jesus is the Good Shepherd, committed to caring for His sheep through every danger, difficulty and trauma. He told His disciples that He would lay down His life for His sheep. Indeed, this is exactly what He did. By laying down His life for our sins, He conquered death and raises us to eternal life with Him. Let us allow the risen Lord to guide us to the idyllic pasture of salvation.

*****The parish directories are here! Any family whose pictures were taken for the directory may pick up their copy in the church office after Mass on the weekend or during the week.

***** DIOCESAN SUPPORT (DSA) 2024

On behalf of those who benefit from the Diocesan Support Appeal, thank you for your generosity. Nine families have contributed so far. The theme of “One Body in Christ” reminds us that we are called to join in Christ’s love to serve one another with compassion. This year’s goal for St. Benedict’s is $28,753.
