In Jesus’ telling of this story, He focuses on those who await the master’s return. They have been given instructions and are expected to carry them out. The servants do not know when the master will return. They wait and make preparations [and] act in accord with his will. And they are ready. If we put ourselves in the place of the servants with Jesus as the master, here we will find the Good News of the Gospel. For being ready for Jesus’ second coming is less about any actual time and place, and more about what we choose to do while we wait. We, too, have been given instructions and commandments, and there is no time to waste in preparing and Assumption of the participating in God’s kingdom. Through the grace of baptism we have been grafted Blessed Virgin Mary into Christ, giving us, as Wisdom says of our ancestors, sure knowledge of the oaths in which [we] put [our] faith. This is the faith which is the realization of what is hoped Mass will be celebrated for: redemption in Jesus Christ. It is this faith that gives us the desire - as it gave Thursday, Abraham - to obey God’s call, and the courage to journey wherever God has August 15, 2019 prepared for us to go. Near the end of the Eucharistic Prayer – at the end of the Lord’s Prayer during 8:15 AM Mass – the priest prays in part, “Deliver us, Lord, we pray, from every evil…that, by 12:15 PM the help of your mercy, we may be always free from sin….as we await the blessed 7:30 PM hope and the coming of our Savior, Jesus Christ.” This prayer, “developing the last petition of the Lord’s Prayer itself, asks for deliverance from the power of evil for the whole community of the faithful.” (GIRM 81) So with prayer and action, we prepare ourselves and one another for the return of our Master. We do whatever it means, individually, for each one of us to sell [our] belongings and give alms; to gird [our] loins and light [our] lamps; to defend our house from thieves. Let us come to know God’s will and follow it soberly and attentively. Let us do these things, by God’s grace. Then we know that we shall rejoice when we once again see the Son of Man come in all his glory! +This weekend, we welcome Fr.

On The Journey (continued from page 1) and many parts of the continent, are not only struggling with a multi-year drought, but also over-all poverty and medical needs. Please be generous as you can to help out in this appeal! +This coming Thursday is the Feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, a holy day of obligation. Masses will be celebrated in the church at 8:15 a.m.; 12:15 p.m. (the lunchtime crowd, as I like to call them!); and then at 7:30 p.m. in the evening. Please make every effort to attend one of these masses as we honor Mary for this most special blessing granted to her by God for being the mother of his Son, Jesus Christ. +With some warmer weather we have been having, construction has made some progress around the campus over these past couple weeks. New concrete entrances, curbs, and sidewalks have been poured and curing well. The interior vestibules to the large west gathering space have been installed. A lot of tile work has been finished in the lavatories and kitchenette; painting has been going on with the first coats. Further work on the electrical, media, and HVAC plans have made significant progress. We hope to see a lot more work on putting the asphalt parking lots in, as well as connecting the lights in the parking lots. Our contractor continues to work with DTE for the “change-over of the old electrical transformer to the new one (necessary because of the additional demands of the facility). Your generosity with our CSA/Building campaign continues! We have $576,308 in donations/pledges against our target of $352,457, netting us a potential refund of $223,851 for use on our building requirements and parish up-grades. May you be blessed for the sacrificial offerings you have made to help our parish community! +One area that will be upgraded will be the parish phone system which is being necessitated by the construction. This is actually outside of the project scope, but had been partially budgeted for in the current year’s fiscal budget plan. We are looking for better, more reliable service to help in meeting our ministry to our parish community! +My trip to Iowa last weekend went well, and a good time was had by all! Sadly, as I was leaving the parking lot to start that journey westward, I received notice that a dear friend of mine from my Port Huron ministry at St. Mary parish had passed away, and the family was asking for me to do the funeral early Monday morning. With the Lord’s blessings and guidance, we were able to return safe and sound late Sunday evening, so that I could preside at the funeral of Mrs. Joan Clearly. Please keep her in your prayers, as we remember all our deceased loved ones in our hearts and prayers! +August is moving quickly. Holy Family school administration has been working diligently over this past week on various plans. We keep our students of all ages in special prayer as they prepare to go back to college, high school, or grade school…and for those involved in sports practices of various kinds, to be safe! Looking forward to a great fall – and as always, seeing you in church! -Msgr.

  • Frequently Asked Questions About the Catholicity of Alpha
    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THE CATHOLICITY OF ALPHA The following article addresses frequently asked questions about the Catholicity of the Alpha course. Among these, some have asked, “Why is the Diocese of Green Bay using the Alpha course when Alpha did not originate in the Catholic Church?” In this document are four questions and answers to be aware of on how the Alpha course can support our discipleship efforts in the Catholic Church. Recall that the four step discipleship process in the Diocese of Green Bay is as follows: 1. Discover Jesus. 2 Follow Jesus. 3. Worship Jesus. Share Jesus. These questions are detailed below. Page 1: Did Alpha originate in the Catholic Church? Page 2: If the Catholic Church teaches that the Church of Christ exists fully only in the Catholic Church (Dominus Iesus, no. 14), then why is the Diocese of Green Bay using a non-Catholic resource? Page 3: Why is there an “Alpha in a Catholic Context”? What gaps does the “Catholic context” part of Alpha address? Page 4: Are members of the Catholic hierarchy and other key Catholic leaders endorsing Alpha? 1. Did Alpha originate in the Catholic Church? Alpha was founded in 1977 by Reverend Charles Marnham at Holy Trinity Brompton, an Anglican parish in London. However, Nicky Gumbel, an Anglican priest, oversaw the development and expansion of the Alpha course starting from the 1980’s to the present day. However, it sometimes takes an “outsider” to show us “insiders” how wise the Catholic Church is in her teachings. Incidentally, what Nicky Gumbel effectively integrated into the Alpha course are several discipleship principles and practices as taught by the Catholic Church.

  • What Is a Synod?
    WHAT IS A SYNOD? The word “synod” (pronounced /śɪnəd/) comes from the Greek word synodos, meaning “an assembly,” an ecclesiastical gathering under the hierarchical authority of a bishop in a diocese. The assembly can include clergy, religious sisters and brothers, and lay persons. Synods are called to discuss and recommend decisions on matters of faith, morals, discipline or governance. Synod members advise the bishop. Synods are rare and exceptionally historic events. Only 10 synods been called in Detroit since the Church here was founded in 1701, all of them after the Diocese of Detroit was established in 1833 by Pope Gregory XVI. (At that time the diocese included all of Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota and portions of the Dakotas east of the Mississippi River!) Each Detroit synod was called to address particular issues of immediate concern to the local church. The issues typically included diocesan and parish structure and governance, and the implementation of the teachings of various provincial, national or global councils. Bishop LeFevre convened two synods in Detroit (1859 & 1862) to address regulation of clergy and to implement council decrees. Bishop Borgess convened five synods between 1873 and 1886, covering establishing parish schools, supporting charitable organizations, and constructing a new cathedral. Cardinal Mooney convened two synods (1944 & 1954), covering the liturgy and the teaching office of the Church. Cardinal Dearden called one synod in April 1966, shortly after the close of the Second Vatican Council. This synod, completed in May 1969 and referred to as “Synod 69,” was convened to implement certain aspects of Vatican II, in particular the “Universal Call to Holiness” in the Dogmatic Constitution of the Church (Lumen Gentium).

    COMMUNITY REPORT 2019 Mission The Catholic Foundation of Michigan inspires charitable giving and assists generous donors providing for the long-term needs of Catholic parishes, schools, ministries and other organizations of southeast Michigan. Invest. Serve. Grow. Serve. Invest. EXTRAORDINARY GROWTH AND 2019 INSPIRING COLLABORATION Dear Friends, You need a strong foundation to build something that will last. In 2016, a group of visionary lay leaders established the Catholic Foundation of Michigan. Since then, the Foundation has grown to meet the needs of our community and beyond, building up parishes, strengthening schools and supporting dynamic ministries. We could not have done this good work in our Catholic community without you. In our third year, the Catholic Foundation of Michigan continues to be blessed with generous support from our donors while supporting the ever-growing need of ministries in our area. During 2019, the Foundation’s portfolio grew to nearly $16 million, and since its founding, it has granted over $3 million. This impressive growth is due in large part to the many people who participate in making an impact in our community. When people work together for a shared goal, dynamic energy and enthusiasm is created that leads to a greater outpouring of generosity. Our report this year celebrates that kind of community-based collaboration. This report tells the stories of faithful and generous collaborators who are passionate about a better tomorrow. You are a part of our story. We are grateful for all that you have offered, and we look forward to continuing to work with you for years to come.

  • 1. What Is ACTS XXIX – Mobilizing for Mission and Why Is There a Need for It? the Archdiocese of Detroit Held a Synod on the New Evangelization in 2016
    1. What is ACTS XXIX – Mobilizing for Mission and why is there a need for it? The Archdiocese of Detroit held a Synod on the new Evangelization in 2016. “That Synod was the ignition spark that is to set the Archdiocese ablaze. Its goal was nothing less than a radical overhaul of the Church in Detroit, a complete reversal of our focus from an inward, maintenance-focused church, to an outward, mission- focused church” (Unleash the Gospel [UTG*] Introduction). The crucial question is how does this beautiful, Spirit-driven vision become a concrete reality? Many pastors and parishes (and dioceses) are eagerly seeking a compass and map to respond to the challenges of the 21st century situation facing the Church. “A radical overhaul” will require constant vigilance and courage so as to not return to our default ways of doing things in the Church, (i.e., maintenance mode). ACTS XXIX – Mobilizing for Mission is a piece of the “radical overhaul” Synod 16 called for. We are an emerging movement focused on answering the need. We exist to transform Catholic culture and reclaim the Church’s missional identity. Our goal is to transform people, parishes, and society by equipping clergy and pastoral teams to unapologetically and uncompromisingly proclaim the Gospel in the 21st century. 2. What does ACTS XXIX – Mobilizing for Mission offer? Embracing a mission-oriented renewal, ACTS XXIX is organized in five major disciplines: • Priestly Renewal (cf. UTG Marker 5.2); • Parish Renewal (cf. UTG Introduction and Action Step 2.3); • Vision and Leadership Development (cf. UTG Action Step 2.3); • Evangelization and Discipleship Roadmap Development (cf.
