Sharing the Gospel- God smiles when you say kind words and do good things for others. Say please and thank you. Share your favorite candy bar. Open the door for someone. Sometimes you make mistakes. You might spit out an unkind word. You might hit someone. When you are in bed at night, tell God you are sorry. God will forgive you. Jesus died on the cross so that you can sleep on a pillow of forgiveness. Prayer- Lord, help me say good words to everyone I meet. Mission for the Week– I will open doors for others and say, "Have a happy day" with a smile.

22ND SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME

“Be doers of the word and not hearers only…” JAMES 1:22

It’s easy to understand the definition of stewardship – living a grateful and generous life. The hard part is doing it! How do your actions reflect God’s word? Do you share your time in prayer with God? Do you use your talent to help those in need? Are you generous with your financial resources? If not, what are you waiting for?

Make a Gift at: www.support.rcan.org/a/donate

Please consider donating to the food pantry; it is an important ministry to our community! Since we are currently feeding 80-90 families a week, we are in need of more items that are smaller in size. This will enable us to create approximately 80 food bags for our distribution.

PASTOR’S COLUMN

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

Parish Pastoral Council As I’ve written previously, over the last few months we have had a small group of parishioners generously serving as an ad hoc or “provisional” advisory council, with the goal of arriving very soon at a new, fully functioning “Parish Pastoral Council”. This provisional group has been a blessing. They proposed the survey which we’ve just done (results soon) and they proposed a “Welcome Back” at all the Masses September 18-19 and a Parish Picnic to start at 1:30pm after a bi-lingual 12:15pm Mass. I certainly hope every parishioner will be a part of it all! But it is also time to move forward on the formation of a new Parish Pastoral Council. We have many tasks ahead – some spiritual and liturgical, some educational and financial – but, in our national culture that is extremely secular and relativist, our most urgent task together is to pass on our faith in Jesus Christ to our children and young people, and to help to kindle and deepen that same faith in their parents, and indeed, in all of us. For this, we will benefit from the establishment once again of a Parish Pastoral Council that incorporates men and women of all ages, cultures and experiences in our diverse parish. Although a Council was formed some years ago, at this time we will benefit from having some assistance from the Archdiocese which, in recent years, has developed some current models and methodologies for Parish Pastoral Councils which will help us to arrive at a structure that will serve our needs. Sometime in September, we will schedule one or more sessions here to work on this together. I invite you to give serious thought and prayer to what you would like to see in our parish going forward: What has been good and helpful over the years? What is missing and needed in order to grow in faith and then, as disciples, to grow as a Christian community and to reach out and witness that faith to others? Concretely, I ask you to let us know (by mail, phone, or preferably by email at [email protected]: 1) if you would be open to attending one or more informational-organizational sessions; 2) if you are open to considering serving on an eventual Parish Pastoral Council; and 3) to please propose names of people you believe would make good members of such a Council ... and please don't be shy about offering your own name if you'd be open to serving! In this way, I hope to have a broad and varied pool of interested people. Please know, this is not yet a commitment to serve, but only to be part of the process to arrive at a great Parish Pastoral Council! Please pray for that outcome! And let us pray for one another as we move through this process! God bless you all,

Fr. Joe
