It is time to take action. We must defend the sacredness of life by opposing Florida Amendment 4 (Right to Abortion Initiative), which is on the ballot during the November elections. VOT E NO
If passed, this Amendment would: eliminate parental consent, weaken the medical doctor requirement, put women's health at risk, allow for second and third trimester abortions and create a broad "health" loophole.
For more details on exactly what is contained in this Amendment, click on the link to the Florida Conference of Catholic Bishops. Also please watch the campaign video and take a look at the Amendment fact sheet. We must all work together to urge our faith community, and the community at large to oppose this radical Amendment and say "Yes" to Life by voting "No" on Amendment 4.

GET INVOLVED IN YOUR
SAINT DAVID PARISH FAMILY
What are the special talents that you have? Do you have a friendly personality that would be great at greeting parishioners at the Masses as an Usher? Or maybe you would like to distribute the Holy Eucharist at Mass or to the Homebound as a Eucharistic Minister? Or maybe you would be a great lector?
High Schoolers and 8th Grade Students:
We are in need of volunteers for the Slide Projection during the weekend Masses. This is a great way for you to get your service hours. Contact Elizabeth in the church office.

NATIONAL EUCHARISTIC REVIVAL
The National Eucharistic Revival, which launched on the feast of Corpus Christi in 2022, has a mission to "renew the Church by enkindling a living relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist." Sponsored by the U.S. Catholic bishops, the revival aims to inspire people to encounter Jesus in the Eucharist.
During the week of July 17-21, 2024, the Catholic Church in the United States made history when Catholics from around our nation gathered in Indianapolis, Indiana for the First National Eucharistic Congress in 83 years. It proved to be a pivotal moment in both American history and the legacy of the Catholic Church that brought tens of thousands of pilgrims together in a singular focus - THE EUCHARIST!
In a society where the Lord is often forgotten and even a majority of Catholics do not believe in the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist, the revival is meant to rededicate the entire nation to the Eucharistic Jesus.

PARISH MEMBERSHIP MATTERS
Am I an "active member " of Saint David Parish? With graduation from Saint David Catholic School right around the corner, many of the students will be continuing their Catholic education at a local Catholic High School. As active Catholics, you are eligible for tuition discounts. In order to be considered an active, participating member of the parish and thus eligible for this reduced tuition rate, Saint David Catholic Church takes into account a family's or individual's Mass attendance as well as their ministry involvement.
Since weekly offertory envelopes are the primary means of determining if parishioners are regularly attending Mass, we ask you to place your envelopes in the collection box each Sunday even if you cannot make a monetary contribution. Online donating is also a convenient option for parishioners. This can be done using the link at the top of the website. Attendance at Mass is the most meaningful way we model and live our Catholic faith.
Registration can be done by using the online link also located at the top of the website or in the Parish Office. You may also be asked to be a sacramental sponsor. You must be a registered, contributing member for at least 3 months before a certificate of eligibility can be provided.
We would love to have you as a member of the Saint David Parish Family. Please contact the Parish Office should you have any questions at 954-475-8046. Thank you and God Bless.

Montfort Mission Update
Attached are some photos of the progress that has been made on the school building with the support of our prayers and donations, which help to provide jobs for the workers and hope for the school children and their families, in the midst of the lawlessness, chaos, and violence now plaguing the country. This is to let you know of the progress that has been made, along with the gratitude of Fr. Saint Louis, ssm, and the school community. Let us continue to keep them, and all of the Haitian people, in our prayers.
Please read my letter below regarding the release of the six religious sisters from the Congregation of St. Anne, along with others, that were kidnapped from a bus on a main road in Port-au-Prince, Haiti.
In gratitude,
Fr Steve

THE SAINTS & THE PARISH
TAKE A LOOK AT THE HISTORY AND ART BEHIND OUR PARISH THAT HAS BEEN PUBLISHED ON THE ADOM WEBSITE.
Guest House provides information, education, treatment and care needed to assure that Catholic clergy, men and women religious, and seminarians suffering from alcoholism, addictions, and other behavioral health conditions have the best opportunity for quality recovery and overall health and wellness.
Guest House is located in Lake Orion, MI and treats Catholic clergy and religious from across the United States and around the world. Although Guest House does bill for the services and treatments provided, each year more than one million dollars of uncompensated care is provided to those in need, no one has ever been turned away. There is a great need for the support of the lay faithful to be able to fulfill the commitment each year to provide the care needed for the clergy and religious.
Additional information regarding the mission and ministry of Guest House can be found by visiting the website.
