~Jeremiah 29:11
Congratulations!
Today is your day.
You’re off to Great Places!
You’re off and away!
You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself in any
direction you choose.
You’re on your own.
And you know what you know.
You are the guy who’ll decide
where to go.

REFLECTING ON STEWARDSHIP
“They all ate and were satisfied. And when the
leftover fragments were picked up, they filled
twelve wicker baskets.” - Luke 9:17
The story of the Loaves and Fishes shows us that when
we share what we have, even if it doesn’t seem like
that much, miracles can happen! Do not think that
your gift is too small or insignificant! God blesses all
the gifts we offer and makes them wondrous.

In an effort to protect all children and to promote healing,
the Diocese of Gaylord encourages victims of child
abuse or neglect to report the matter. In fact, many
professionals are required by Michigan State law to
report suspected abuse or neglect of a child or minor.
Individuals should contact their local office of the
Department of Human Services. If an allegation
involves sexual misconduct of a minor by clergy or
any employee of the Diocese of Gaylord, even if it is in
the past, individuals may also contact Tom Tenerovicz
at 989.732.5147.
Matthew 25:35 Food Pantry
We would like to thank our faithful and generous food
pantry volunteers, MCC students, MCC custodian
Mike Shively, volunteers from Family Fare Supermarket
and Meijer, as well as the many contributors from our
community who have generously given of their time,
talents, and treasures for distribution of groceries to
those in need of food assistance in Manistee County
at the food pantry on Friday, May 13, 2016.
We also would like to acknowledge and thank St. Bernard
Catholic Church in Irons for their donation of 131 lbs.
of groceries, Family Fare Supermarket, Meijer, and
Feeding America West Michigan for their cooperation
in obtaining groceries and meat this month. A very
special thanks to Meijer Store Director Ken Babcock
for a donation of a $300 gift card from Meijer. Our
sincere appreciation also to all of the kind and generous
donors in our community for continuing to support this
pantry.
The pantry served 149 shoppers (435 household members) this month. We distributed 6,692 lbs. of groceries
and 466 lbs. of meat. Phil and Kristi Harless, volunteers
for Hearts for Critters, provided 1,000 pounds of pet
food for our shoppers, donated from their organization.
The generosity of this community in providing donations
to the food pantry every month is a true blessing!! “Ah
mercy. This is the name of God.” - Pope Francis
Please pass the word to those who may be in need of
food assistance about the food pantry. The next food
pantry is Friday, June 10, 2016 and, for those who
shop, the line will start with #151. We ask for your
continued prayers and support for the food pantry.
For more information about accessing the food pantry,
or volunteering, please call me at 398.0296.

To promote the natural beauty of our cemetery, the safety of
our visitors and caretakers, and out of respect for our beloved
deceased, the Mount Carmel Cemetery Board requires all
individuals to follow the rules for our Catholic Cemetery.
MT. CARMEL CEMETERY RULES
Mt. Carmel Cemetery, located at the corner of Maple and
Merkey Roads in Manistee, is hallowed ground and shares
with all sacred places regulations to insure reverence, neatness,
and order. Our common responsibility for the upkeep of our
cemetery calls for all to observe these regulations:
 A 14-inch border of annual flowers in front of the grave
marker is allowed, and it can only be the width of the marker
foundation. No rocks, stones or woodchips are allowed in
the borders, nor are brick, stones, or molded rubber liners
allowed to form the borders, if placed they will be removed.
 No wire or plastic is to be inserted in the ground, nor are
there to be any glass decorations, vases, or jars placed on
the graves or grave markers.
 Planting of live annual, not perennial, flowers in the ground
is permitted within this 14 inch border. The watering of live
flowers is the responsibility of the family.
 Artificial arrangements are only permitted in an urn or pot
aligned with grave marker. Artificial arrangements not in
urns will be removed. Other arrangements, such as wreaths,
are only permitted during winter months, from November
15th to April 1st. At all other times they will be removed.
 The American Flag for veterans is the only flag allowed to
be placed by graves.
 All flower urns, pots, shepherd hooks, and statues must be
in line with markers or monuments. Statues must be of a
religious type acceptable to the Catholic faith, and are to be
placed on the foundation of the grave marker. Statues not
of a religious nature and other objects (toys, trinkets, coins,
balloons, golf balls, playing cards, etc.) will be removed.
Decorating of trees is not allowed.
 Grave blankets are not permitted.
 Refuse (such as plastic, cardboard, metal, glass, etc.) is to
be removed from the cemetery. Whatever items you bring
to the cemetery you must take back with you when you are
finished decorating. No hoses or water cans or containers
may be left in the cemetery.
 The planting of trees, shrubs, or perennials is not allowed
on any gravesite.
 Rollerblading, skateboarding, riding horses, walking dogs or
other pets is not permitted on cemetery property.

FAMILY PERSPECTIVE
In today’s gospel Jesus teaches we will find abundance
by sharing the little we have. No matter how little time,
money or food we have, it is enough to share.
STEWARDSHIP BY THE BOOK
In today's Gospel, the disciples suggest that Jesus
disperse the crowd so that they might individually seek
food and lodging. The miracle of the feeding of the
five thousand is Jesus' powerful reminder that when
we share our gifts in His name there is always more
than enough!
VOCATION VIEW
Food usually becomes more when it is given then when
it is taken. The more Jesus is given, the more we share
Him, the more He increases.

VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL: VBS will be held from

for one, or $40 for 2+. Ages 4 - 11. 60 seats available.
Pick up a registration form at the CCM office or at

Silvernail with any questions. Registration deadline
is June 30th.
TEMPLARS: The Youth Group (6th – 9th)
will be meeting Wednesdays from 6:00
pm - 9:00 pm in the CYC starting on June
22nd. I am planning games, movies,
cookouts, beach trips, bowling trips etc.
A sign-up sheet is in the CCM office. We
also have a name, the Templars! Templars got their
name as they were an order of knights formed after
the Crusade to protect pilgrims visiting the Holy Land
and were based in Temples. While they have a deep
and interesting history, afterwards their founding ideals
of protecting peace, promoting charity, and being brave
in the face of overwhelming odds are ideas worth
modeling.
