Our Lady of La Salette Parish
August Intention for Use of the Family of Parish
 
Mission Statement for Our Lady of La Salette Parish
We, the Roman Catholic Family of Our Lady of La Salette, 
have the living and welcoming presence of Jesus Christ as the center of our life, 
especially in the Eucharist. 
Through worship, the proclamation of the Gospel, service, 
and the work of the New Evangelization, 
we continue the reconciling ministry of Jesus Christ.
 
August Intention      
For each of us within our Family of Parishes: 
that, in our daily lives, we will work together for unity and justice. 
and that, empowered by the Holy Spirit we may bring hope and healing 
to those wounded by fear and division.  
 
Possible Action Steps:
  • Learn about Mary’s message of healing and reconciliation at La Salette France in 1846.  Visit www.lasalette.org for more information.
  • Go to confession. Celebrate God’s mercy and forgiveness.
  • Promote reconciliation within this election year. Read and pray over Forming Conscience for Faithful Citizenship
  • Approach both the news media and social media with the mind and heart of Christ.  Seek the truth and strive for education, empathy, and critical thinking.
Catholic Social Teaching: 
How our Faith and Public Lives Connect
Tuesday, August 6th at 7:00 pm 
             Our Mother of Perpetual Help Oak Park Campus             
                                   13500 Oak Park Blvd., Oak Park, MI                              
 
What has the Church said about how our faith and life 
in the public forum connect?
 
Fr. Dave Buersmeyer, a retired priest of the Archdiocese and 
chaplain for Strangers No Longer will answer this question using 
the basic themes of the Church’s social teaching based on the life 
and dignity of the person, the call to community and participation, 
and our rights and responsibilities being the first three themes. 
 
He will discuss the implications for our lives today.
