Read responses given by the various United States dioceses in preparation for the Synod on Synodality
Early last year, parishes and other groups throughout the world were invited to participate in the synodal process by the Holy Father. Individuals relayed issues that they felt strongly about in regards to “Church Life” either by meeting in small groups, gathering on Zoom conferences, or simply by responding in survey form. The results of these discussions were then to be summarized and passed on to the diocese. In turn, the diocese would then recap the responses received and pass these onto their respective regional office of the USCCB. The regional office would condense the responses that it received and submit its report to the USCCB, who then would pass on a final document to the Vatican.
The report has from the diocese of Altoona-Johnstown has not been made public. However, a copy of the report compiled by the Region III office, with includes our diocese, is available. If interested, a copy can be found below.

THE FEAST DAY OF ST. COLUMBA - JUNE 9 Be a bright flame before me, O God, and a guiding star above me. Be a smooth path below me, a kindly shepherd behind me; today, tonight, and forever. Alone with none but you, my God I journey on my way; what need I fear when you are near, O Lord of night and day. More secure am I within your hand than if a multitude did round me stand. Amen ST. COLUMBA PRAY FOR US! |

THE FEAST DAY OF ST. ANTHONY OF PADUA
JUNE 13
Dear St. Anthony,
you loved God so much when you lived upon the earth.
You were known, even then, as a great wonder-worker,
so great did His power live in you.
Now that you are in heaven,
you share in God’s glory and in His power
in a more perfect way.
Look on us with kindness
as we come to you in our need.
We pray for healing for all who are in need of it. Amen
ST. ANTHONY OF PADUA PRAY FOR US!
CCW PRAYERS FOR HAITI: The Sisters of the Carmelite Community of the Word invite you to join us in three days of prayer, June 25, 26 & 27, in honor of Mother of Perpetual Help for the needs of the people of Haiti. The situation in Haiti is tragic and there is little intervention by the world community to alleviate the suffering of the people. In the midst of the turmoil that exists in Haiti at the present time we ask your help in praying for a resolution to the violence, starvation and isolation that plagues the people of Haiti. A recent article details what life is like in Haiti right now. It highlights the very urgent need for our prayers.

The Feast of the Solemnity of the Body and Blood of Christ has deep significance to those living the stewardship way of life. The most precious gifts God has given us are His Word and His Body and Blood.
They are all we need to sustain us in this world and guide us to heaven. Let us resolve to steward these precious gifts well with all our hearts, always. This is the essence of a stewardship way of life.

Norms for the Distribution and Reception of Holy Communion
under Both Kinds in the Dioceses of the United States of America
Holy Communion has a fuller form as a sign when it is distributed under both kinds. From the first days of the Church’s celebration of the Eucharist, Holy Communion consisted of the reception of both species in fulfillment of the Lord’s command to “take and eat…take and drink.” The distribution of Communion to the faithful under both kinds was the norm for more than a millennium of Catholic liturgical practice. For in this form the sign of the Eucharistic banquet is more clearly evident and expression is given to the divine will by which the new and eternal Covenant is ratifies in the Blood of the Lord.

Pray the Liturgy of the Hours
Lectio divina is a form of meditation rooted in liturgical celebration that dates back to early monastic communities. It was a method practiced by monks in their daily encounter with Scripture, both as they prepared for the Eucharist and as they prayed the Liturgy of the Hours.
The Latin phrase “lectio divina” may be translated as “divine reading.” As one reads and invites the Word to become a transforming lens that brings the events of daily living into focus, one can come to live more deeply and find the presence of God more readily in the events of each day. The method of lectio divina follows four steps:
