 St. Kieran Parish, Shelby Township Page 2 PLEASE PRAY FOR THOSE Mallia’s Moments REQUESTING PRAYER A Gospel reflection from Father Joe and an update  on upcoming events happening around the parish Names will remain on our sick list for 6 weeks. After 6 weeks contact the Parish Office Life is hard! Yes, it is! There is no way around it, life is hard. No one if you wish to place the promised it would be easy and anyone who tells you that it can be easy is a liar. name back on the list. Ask any of the athletes at the Olympics if life is easy. For that matter, ask any Names will remain on our person who is on the face of the earth and they will tell you that life is not military list for 1 year. easy. But there are those who would have you believe that it can be easy and SICK LIST then they compound the lie to tell you that you can have this easy life by Andrew Akash freeing yourself from the real burdens of life, which are the rules of society and Harold Bates the abandonment of God. Freed from those things, your life can be wonderful! Antonino Cavataio But like every lie, the goal is to hide the truth. Therefore, if you wish to find Famy Cusumano the truth, reverse the lie. The mistake that is often made is that people seek Kate DeSmet to argue against the proposed merits of the lie. When that happens, you get Jack Devereaux caught in a vortex of confusion, because the lie keeps moving on to the next lie until you simply give up. But what if instead of arguing, you simply turned the Maryann Devereaux lie around and asked yourself what makes most sense? Take for example the Tyler Fina statement that life can be easy. So, turn it and say that life is not easy. Now Betsy Fisch what make most sense to you? So, if the first statement is a lie, everything Joe Giancarli that flows from it must also be a lie. Joann Gozdor Take, for example, another common lie, that you can have what ever you Joel Holland want if you want it bad enough. Turn it around and it becomes, you can’t have Richard Jakubec what you want even if you want it bad enough. Now, we may not like that, but Casey Jones it is true. Simply “wanting” something is not enough. There are other factors. Rosalynn Kettner For example, I many want to be an NBA basketball player, but the fact the I David Koczara don’t really have the talent to be one precludes my desire. I couldn’t practice Jesse Malczyk enough to make it to the NBA. I simply lack the talent and the size. I may Carmella Martz want to be President of the United States, but I can’t because I was not born in Ron Mazza this country. You see, wanting is not enough, we must face the limitations that Pamela Mleczko are found within reality. Rosalie Petz God knows the truth. In todays readings, God is shows us that he is fully aware of our needs and what is really necessary to face the challenges of life. Lisa Shadeck In the first reading, God gives the prophet bread so that he can carry on with Jonathan Shall his journey and in the Gospel, we hear how Jesus gives us the Eucharist to Patricia Shall strengthen us for our journey. When we deprive ourselves of the Bread of Life Alan Stoddard we are actually starving ourselves of the necessary food, given to us by God, to Jean Urbanek overcome any challenge we face in life. Our families need to gather to Madeline Valdez celebrate the Eucharist if they are going to be stronger families. Than means Joann Van Overbeke

Couples need to receive the Eucharist together and Rick Beaudis– AF to consecrate their relationships to this source of life- giving love. Single Drake Blight– NG people, those looking to get married, need to devote themselves to seeking a spouse through prayer and seeking a person who shares a commitment to Joseph Deagan-N faith.

The sick and especially those dying need the Eucharist Spenser Horwedel-AF to strengthen them during their illness and as they transition from this life to Mike Kwasnik-N the next. Rick Kwasnik-N Life is hard, but God does not abandon us to the difficulty, he gives us the Daniel Otten-A food we need so that we can be strong for the journey of life, this pilgrimage Joseph Pellerito– CG we are on that will eventually lead us to heaven. The Eucharist is not a Capt Steven Pickett-M “reward”, the Eucharist is the essential nourishment for every soul to turn Jacob Risner-A away from sin, to be a child of God, to be a faithful disciple.

MALLIA’S MOMENTS (continued) Jesus tells us today that he “is the Deacon bread of life”. He also tells us that he came into the world so the we would have life and have it to the Russ full. Life is hard. But, having the experience of a full life is impossible Reflects without God, without Jesus, the bread of life. Anything else is simply a lie. There is no life without Christ; This week we will discuss a saint depicted in one of our stained- there is only a perception of life but glass windows, who lived over 1000 years ago and is not very it is an illusion.

The Gospel For All Ages…Family Catechesis

Take the Challenge! First Kings 19:4-8; Ephesians 4: 30-5:2; John 6: 41-51

About the Gospel: Jesus tells us that he is more than what he appears—he is the Son of God! Similarly, he introduces the teaching that the Eucharist is truly his Body. In Church: Have your parents help you find the tabernacle. Talk after Mass about Jesus being truly present in the Eucharist that is reserved in the tabernacle. Question of the Week: Why did Jesus give us his Body in something that has the appearance of bread? St. Kieran Parish, Shelby Township Page 5

“Get up and eat or the journey will be too much for you!” 1 KINGS 19:7 God knows that committing to a stewardship lifestyle is difficult. However, we were not designed to do it on our own, we need His help. Fortunately, God gave us the greatest gift of all, His son, Jesus. Through the gift of the Eucharist we join our sacrifice with the sacrifice of the Holy Mass and receive the strength and courage to be His joyful disciples. St. Kieran Parish, Shelby Township Page 7
