From Pastor’s Desk Dear Parishioners,

W ho do people say that the Son of Man is? This is the question that Jesus asks of his disciples. They reply that some say John the Baptist, others

Elijah, or Jeremiah, or a prophet. J esus takes the question further: But who do you say that I am?

I t is Simon Peter who speaks up. He speaks with confidence. He doesn’t begin by saying, “Well, I think” or “I suspect,” or “In my opinion,” rather, he asserts,

“You are the Christ, the Son of the living God”.

A nd Jesus replies, Blessed are you … for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my heavenly Father. God gave Simon Peter the special grace of recognizing Jesus, and now Jesus goes on to

acknowledge Simon Peter in a public way. J esus says, Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah … And so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this rock I

will build my church. Jesus gives Simon a new name: Peter, which means “Rock.” Upon this rock he will build his Church. Upon the simple, yet profound, faith of Peter, God will do great things.

T he question for the disciples is a question for all of us: Who do we say that Jesus is?

W ith God’s grace, we will acknowledge him. With God’s help, we will recognize Jesus. We will take time each day to say hello to him. With God’s grace we will be confident in our recognition. We will not say,

“Well, I think,” or “In my opinion.” Rather, with God’s grace, we will say, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” And in so saying, we will trust him. And through our own, simple faith, God will be able to do great things. Blessings, Fr. Tad

Due to the global pandemic, the future of youth ministry has been uncertain with things changing on

a weekly basis, but rest assured we will make the most of our time together – even if that means meeting virtually! Stay tuned to our Instagram

@st.anthony_ym for all updates regarding summer youth ministry and Fall registration! Stay on the

lookout for our Summer small group, Candle is Lit reflections on Sunday's

Scripture readings, and our featured Bible Bops of the Day!

TRUST Keys hold great significance for those who carry them. They represent the trust and authority of the owner when given to another person. We may give our house key to a trusted friend to take care of our matters while we are away. We may give keys to someone responsible for maintaining or working in a particular building. Keys to vehicles are given to people who have proven themselves responsible drivers. The readings today focus on this kind of trust—the trust that conveys authority and responsibility. In the first reading, the symbol is specifically that of a key; but the second reading and the Gospel also speak of trust and leadership as they refer to the earthly church that Jesus established.

SAINT MONICA (332-387) August 27 She had smiles for the neighbors, though her husband found her religion and the charity it inspired annoying. She made tearful prayers in private for a son, outwardly self-assured but, as his mother knew, inwardly restless, and whose girlfriend of a dozen years had borne his child out of wedlock. Though not the first or last such mother and son, Monica and Augustine are the Church’s most famous, so we keep their feast days back to back, with Monica’s, fittingly, first. To Rome she followed Augustine, then to Milan, where years of prayer—and nagging—finally bore fruit in his conversion by Saint Ambrose. For six months, mother and son enjoyed the blessing of rediscovering each other. Just in time! On the way home to North Africa, Monica took sick and died near Rome. No child who has mourned a parent can read, unmoved, Augustine’s tender account, in his Confessions, of Monica’s last days. At this time of the year, when parents watch apprehensively as children leave for school, may Monica’s perseverance and Augustine’s long-prayed-for conversion ease anxiety and kindle hope. —Peter Scagnelli, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co. PATIENCE Patience is the companion of wisdom. —St. Augustine THE TRUE MEASURE When I die, God won’t measure my head to see how clever I was. God will measure my heart to see how loving I was. —Anonymous A GOOD TEST A test of worship is how sensitive it makes me to the needs of those around me.
