Summer Faith Formation will be held at Good Shepherd in two separate, one week sessions with eight children in most of the classrooms. Week 1 is July 20-24 from 8:15–11:30 a.m. Week 2 is July 27-31 from 8:15–11:30 a.m. Families need to register by filling out the registration form found on our parish website and indicate if you prefer Week 1 or Week 2, or if either week is OK. After we have received the registration and payment, you will receive a confirmation and a letter explaining the guidelines that we will follow.
Please send in your child’s registration by Monday, July 6.
A Message from Fr. Mannebach... Last year, Archbishop Schnurr gave his approval to my application for a three-month sabbatical. The sabbatical would be taken one month per year for each of three years. In August of 2019, I completed the first month of the sabbatical. My second month will be taken in July of 2020. During this time, Fr. Jack Wehman has been appointed Temporary Parochial Administrator for Good Shepherd Parish until my return on August 1. My sabbatical plans are primarily to reconnect with family and friends in Illinois and Wisconsin. In addition, I have no doubt many walks will be taken and books will be read. Please know that we have made proper plans for extra priestly sacramental assistance in my absence. I am grateful for Fr. Jack’s willingness to serve as Administrator, and for the staff of Good Shepherd who will continue to serve the needs of the parish.
Staff Returning and Meetings to Resume Effective July 1, 2020
We are happy to announce that effective July 1, 2020, our staff will return to the office and our meeting rooms will be open! The staff spent time on Tuesday, June 23, looking through the parish calendar (specifically the months of July, August and September) to determine if the scheduled room is sufficient for the group/ministry. With the social distancing requirements, we are limited to the number of people permitted in each room. We must also take into account the time needed to sanitize between meetings. Ministries and groups will continue to be contacted to confirm their scheduled meeting(s) and to share our social distancing protocol. We look forward to having our staff back in the office and our ministries and groups meeting in the building again! Teri Cunningham Director of the Stewardship Department

Scripture Preview for Next Week—Fourteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
by Deacon Max Schellman
First Reading—Zechariah 9:9-10: The prophet Zechariah, a century after the people have returned from exile, focuses on the future by giving words of promise and comfort. He presents a picture of a King, the Messiah, who is meek, peaceful in manner and gentle. He portrays an image of the King on an ass and the foal of an ass. This shows humility as contrasted to a warrior riding on a horse. The King as Savior will rule all of the earth. Second Reading—Romans 8:9, 11-13: Paul contrasts flesh and Spirit. He describes flesh as of this world, human nature and having physical death. Spirit is presented as in the next world in tune with God and having new life. He tells the Romans and us that it is up to each of us to embrace life in the Spirit and to live it. The works we do portray who we are. Gospel—Matthew 11:25-30: Jesus begins by praising the Father and describing His relationship with the Father in heaven. He then, in words of comfort, shows He is meek and humble and open to helping us live good lives. The yoke He speaks of as “easy” and its burden as “light” is His example to us and the revelation of God’s kingdom. We can ask ourselves, “how do we lift the burdens of those we encounter?”
Please note the following changes regarding our weekly Anointing Mass that previously took place on Wednesdays at 6:15 p.m. in the chapel. This Mass is now taking place in the church. Anointings will NOT take place at the Mass. For those wishing to
be anointed, please call the parish office at 489-8815 to schedule a time to be anointed.
This Mass will be live streamed on our website. Questions? Please call Deacon Dennis Berry at 489-8815 ext. 708.

Sunday
Volunteer Opportunity Good Shepherd is helping to provide volunteers at the Mother Teresa of Calcutta dining room at the St. Anthony Center on the following dates: July 2, July 16, July 30, and August 13. St. Francis Seraph Ministries distribute 130 to 160 boxed dinners each day, Monday through Friday. The commitment on these days would be 3:30 p.m. until 5:30 p.m. If you are interested in volunteering on one or more of these days, contact Deacon Mark Westendorf at [email protected] or at 489-8815 ext. 714. The St. Anthony Center is located in Over-the-Rhine at 1615 Republic Street. The items parishioners drop off in the Blue Bins help supply these meals. Your continued support in dropping off nonperishable food and personal care items in the Blue Bins really makes a difference.
News from the Archdiocese Mission Office
Many of the bishops of our 1,150 mission dioceses world-wide see the virus pandemic and downturn of the global economy having a major impact on all dimensions of fellow Catholics’ lives…and for some time to come. A friend of our diocesan office and twinning partner with one of our parishes, Bishop Peter Atuahene of Goaso, Ghana, West Africa, recently emailed us describing the rising numbers of deaths in his nation due to COVID-19. Yet, Bishop Peter is most grateful to parishioners who are turning pastoral centers into isolation centers. He is excited and proud of his youth and families who are reaching out with social media to educate and prayerfully support their people while also bringing food and money to rectories and convents to be distributed.
If you would like information regarding the work of the Mission Office, please visit:
http://www.catholiccincinnati.org/ministries-offices/mission-office/ or e-mail [email protected].
Take It or Leave It Room The “Take It or Leave It Room” will be open again on July 1 giving parishioners the opportunity to drop off small items for St. Vincent de Paul. Items are picked up by St. Vincent de Paul once a week. Also, items like used prescription bottles can once again be dropped off in the Take It or Leave It Room beginning July 1.
Good Shepherd’s monthly “Sack Lunch Sunday,” where lunches are made for the St. Anthony Center, is on hold and hopefully will resume in the not too distant future.
As proud citizens of the United States of America, we are celebrating the greatest holiday of our nation. May it be a beautiful day of self-awareness, patriotism, kindness, and love. Have a wonderful Fourth of July!
“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream.
It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.” –Ronald Reagan
Thank you to the GS-SOS Ministry for displaying the flags along the church’s driveway on Memorial Day and the 4th of July weekends!

First Eucharist (First Communion) First Eucharist (First Communion) is celebrated on two occasions in early spring. Parents are invited to call Nancy Dallas (513-489-8815 ext. 761). Children are invited to the Sacrament when they are in the second grade or have reached the age of 7. Children receiving First Eucharist (First Communion) need to be prepared to receive First Reconciliation (Confession). Preparation for First Reconciliation (Confession) begins early fall each year.
Confirmation for Youth Confirmation is celebrated in the spring each year for youth who have not yet received the Sacrament. Confirmation Prepa-ration takes place within the 8th grade Faith Formation curriculum. Classes run September through April for next year’s candidates. Please contact Walter Plummer with any questions (513-489-8815 or e-mail: [email protected]).

Pastoral Care of the Sick Anointing of the Sick The Anointing of the Sick can be offered when someone is seriously ill, requires surgery, or if the same illness or condition becomes more serious. For those wishing to be anointed, please call the parish office at (513) 489-8815 to schedule a time to be anointed
Ministry to the Dying: Anointing and/or Viaticum If a person is near death, he or she may be anointed. However, if the dying person is able to swallow, it is recommended that they receive the Eucharist as Viaticum. The Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick ought to be celebrated at the beginning of an illness. Viaticum is to be celebrated when death is close. The Eucharist, given as Viaticum, is food for the passage through death to eternal life. A priest or a deacon may give Viaticum to the dying person. When a priest is unavailable, it is important that the deacon visit the dying to pray with that person and the family and offer Viaticum. Please call the parish office (513-489-8815). After hours, please leave a message about the location of the dying person and your contact phone number. That message will be relayed to a priest or deacon.
Reconciliation (Confessions) Tuesdays from 5:30-6:15 p.m. in the Reconciliation Room in the church. Those attending the Sacrament can enter through the doors to the church, prepare in the church and enter the Reconciliation Room when they see the priest is not occupied with another penitent. Please wear a mask during confession.
Vocations Single men or women interested in answering the call to Priesthood or Religious Life are encouraged to contact the pastor or the Diocesan Vocations Director at 513-421-3131.
