From Our Pastor
We Hold Each Other in Prayer for Healing
Every day I look upon the Wood of the Cross in
our Church. Hundreds of prayers of petition are
nailed there reminding us that we are a people of
faith who offer our prayer seeking God to hear our
needs. So many of the prayers and petitions are for healing
of our family and for friends and members of our
community. It is an amazing gift to say to someone who
has shared their pain and sorrow with us that we will pray
for them and their intentions. So often, it leaves them
speechless but grateful for the gesture of care and concern.
Our prayers for healing of one another bring us to the
realization that pain and suffering, illness of body, mind, and
spirit are not personal experiences only, but also, a shared
experience. When one member of the Body of Christ is in
pain, the entire Body suffers and seeks healing. This is a
profound reality for us best demonstrated by the prayer
crosses that grace our Mercy Tree. We place our prayers
on the cross because we believe that the Cross of Jesus
carries all our burdens, our weakness, and our suffering.
The saving Cross of Jesus heals our pain and comforts us
for those who walk in His ways. Jesus said,
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I
will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from
me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find
rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is
light." (Matt. 11)
Through the power of God’s healing presence, we discover
we are not alone in our pain and suffering. An entire
community of friends, family, and faithful people are united
with us. This is the sacrament of healing from the Church
who celebrates the God of Healing; the One who makes us
whole. We pray:
Our Lady of the Assumption

Kids’ Column Safe Environment
Use creative problem solving to find new ways to protect children
In the Protecting God’s Children program, adults learn how to
identify potential signs of abuse and how to pick up on red flag
behaviors that indicate a potential predator, even before abuse
happens. Another tool in the arsenal of child protection is creative
problem solving, where adults learn to think outside the box when
it comes to finding solutions for protecting children. One very
effective creative problem-solving tool is to refocus the group’s
thinking, turning it away from the perceived “problem” and
productively more toward a collaborative solution. Consider the
challenge of how to deal with registered sex offenders whose
children attend the school or participate in religious education at
the parish. Rather than discuss the topic, the leader might ask
participants to finish the following sentences, “Wouldn’t it be awful
if«” and “Wouldn’t it be wonderful if«” Once everyone has
provided responses, the group can look through the answers to
find connecting themes that may provide a previously untried
solution. For more information from the VIRTUS® article “Creative
Problem Solving — How Can it Help?” visit http://www.la-
