Message from the Pastor
Jacob Bertrand Ordination
We are happy to announce that Jacob Bertrand was ordained a priest of the Diocese of San Diego on Friday, June 11, at Saint Thérèse of Carmel Church. Jacob’s parents are John and Barbara Bertrand who were parishioners of St. Anne in the Mountains for 13 years. They later had a part time home in Lake Arrowhead and attended Our Lady of the Lake on weekends.
We thank God for this great blessing and ask our parishioners to keep him in their prayers.
Right to Life
A veteran researcher into post-abortion trauma, David Reardon, writes that some abortionists readily admit feelings of guilt. “I do feel you’re an abnormal person if you could really honestly say that abortion didn’t bother you at all,” said one abortionist he interviewed. “It goes against all things which are natural. It’s a termination of life, however you look at it.” LifeDate, Lutherans for Life newsletter, Spring, 1998.
Father’s Day Collection for Retired Diocesan Priests
As you know, each year in December, a collection is taken to assist the retirements of many religious communities in the United States. This includes both men and women religious who have served us in the Church. Over the past 16 years, you and your parishioners have been very generous and supportive of this Retirement Collection.
At present, the Diocese of San Bernardino has 44 retired priests and will have another 14 in less than 5 years. All of these priests have served in our parishes. Many are known to you and some still help by celebrating mass on the weekends. Social Security and the monthly pension often do not satisfy fully these priests’ financial needs. These men worked in years of very low salaries and were not able to build up sufficient Social Security and retirement savings for present day needs such as, ongoing health care, aging needs, housing, and inflationary costs in general. Although the diocese assists priests from our DIocesan Priest Fund, growing demands have stretched it to the limits.
The purpose and outcome of this special Father’s Day Appeal will be to directly assist diocesan priests in need and continue building an endowment fund to provide for future needs of the retired. We were able to contribute $140,000 to this fund last year while using the other $140,000 to directly assist priests.
God bless you for your generosity and support in responding to this appeal.
Sincerely in Christ,
Most Rev. Gerald R. Barnes
Bishop of the Diocese

Catholic Television
MASS FROM OUR LADY OF THE LAKE
Currently not available
For many years the Sunday Mass has been televised from our church on cable channel 3 and then channel 101. Recently Charter Cable TV began reprogramming the events it televises. At this moment, we have been excluded from the new programming schedule. Whether this is temporary or permanent is yet to be determined. As we get further information we will publish it.
Church Lending Library
Please come back to the Hospitality Room and check out the books that are on display on the new book shelf that magically appeared. (Thank you magic person).
There are many ardent readers in the Parish and many top sellers are passed on by them. Take what you are interested in reading but try to return them to keep them circulating. Maybe we could star a Monthly Book Club!?
Weather/Evacuation Reminder!
In case of inclement weather or we are evacuated, parish information can be view on the web site for Our Lady of the Lake and St. Anne in the Mountains at http://mountaincatholic.org.
Remember too that St. Anne utilizes CallingPost.com to notify all parishioners via telephone when significant events take place. Call the office (909-867-2832) if your home or cell phone number has recently changed. We can’t call you, if we don’t have your number!
Finally, the phone number for Our Lady of the Lake will continue to function via call forwarding at 909-337-2333.
Special Prayers Needed
My classmate, Fr. Steve Gira, C.R., has been diagnosed with cancer of the liver. Please pray through the intercession of the founder of the Congregation of the Resurrection, Bogdan Janski for a complete healing for Fr. Steve Gira, C.R.
I invite you to send Fr. Steve a note stating that you are praying for his healing through the intercession of Bogdan Janski. His address is: Resurrection Seminary, 4252 West Pine Blvd., St. Louis, MO 63108. You may also send an email, put “praying for you” in the subject line to: Sgira@htc.net
A Prayer For A Special Grace Through The Intercession Of Bogdan Janski
Merciful God, in your unconditional love, you constantly approached your servant Bogdan on the confused roads of his life and converted him to become a public penitent and an apostle of love and spiritual resurrection. Through his intercession hear my prayer and grant complete healing for Father Steve Gira, C.R. which I ask you in faith. Grant also, O Lord, that we may one day celebrate his beatification for your greater glory. Amen

REMEMBER OUR CHURCH
When you are away from the area traveling, on vacation or just visiting relatives, one thing to keep in mind is that our church is still receiving bills that need to be paid. We all have bills that cannot be ignored. Some of us cannot assist in physically maintaining the church and the grounds. Before we leave or after we return from our travels, let's remember that our obligation to our parish must be met.
Wanted
Lectors and Eucharistic Ministers are always needed. We are also in great need of musicians and choir members. Remember; when you sing at Mass, it's a double prayer.
Church Choir
Are you ready to begin to sing in church? Join the few that are in the choir now. New singers are desperately needed. If you would like to take an active role in the Mass, contact the office and volunteer.
Flowers
There are envelopes in the pews for floral donations. Please make an occasional donation so that we can replenish the flowers in the Church.
Our Lady of the Lake Gift Shop
