BLESSED SAVIOR CATHOLIC PARISH MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN STEWARSHIP OF PRAYER Dear Parishioners, SATURDAY, 7/25 - VIGIL OF 17TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME Sunday Reflection: 1 Kgs 3:5, 712/Rom 8:2830/Mt 13:4452 The gospels the last two Sundays have been about the or 13:4446 kingdom of heaven. In these gospels, Jesus uses parables to 4:00pm † Alfred Koeppen describe what the kingdom of God is like. Parables were very Marriage Blessing of useful and efficient teaching tools in Jesus’ time. In the search Joseph & Marilyn Ratke, 45 years for truth, parables help to paint a mental picture of what is being described. They do not tell you explicitly what truth is, but enable you discover the truth by connecting the dots. Parables SUNDAY, 7/26 - 17TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME 1 Kgs 3:5, 712/Rom 8:2830/Mt 13:4452 or 13:4446 help to make abstract concepts concrete and comprehensible. There are seven parables in chapter 13 of Matthew’s gospel, 9:00am † Joseph Augustine all dealing with present and future realities of the kingdom. They are commonly referred to as the kingdom parables. Two of the MONDAY, 7/27 - WEEKDAY parables deal with the final judgment, namely, the parable of the Jer 13:111/Dt 32:1819, 20, 21 [cf. 18a]/Mt 13:3135 wheat and the weeds from last Sunday and the parable of the net 9:00am †Ralph Schmidt from this Sunday. The other five parables, namely, the parable of the sower, mustard seed, leaven, treasure and the fine pearl, WEDNESDAY, 7/29 - ST. MARTHA all deal with the present reality of the kingdom. The church Jer 15:10, 1621/Ps 34:23, 45, 67, 89, 1011 [2] teaches that the kingdom of God is already present but not yet Jn 11:1927 or Lk 10:3842 fully. The fullness of the kingdom will be realized in heaven. 9:00am † Tom Schimmels This Sunday’s parables present God’s kingdom as something † Steven Lehman of great value. Jesus describes the kingdom as a treasure buried in a field which one finds and hides again. Then, out of joy, goes SATURDAY, 8/1 - VIGIL OF 18TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME and sells all one has and buys the field. This parable has the Is 55:13/Rom 8:35, 3739/Mt 14:1321 same message as that of the fine pearl of great value that a 4:00pm † Pierre Dasylva merchant finds and sells everything to buy. These parables † Jachim Dasylva convey the message that the kingdom of God is a great treasure that needs to be discovered and possessed. The question is: How SUNDAY, 8/2 - 18TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME does one discover the kingdom of God? Well, through a life of Is 55:13/Rom 8:35, 3739/Mt 14:1321 holiness and devotion to God. We discover the kingdom through 9:00am † Terrence Knier friendship with God in prayer, through the scriptures, sacraments, regular Mass attendance, etc. Most of what we do as church are aimed at discovering the kingdom. Proper use of Fr. Romanus, staff and Blessed Savior earthly treasures could lead to discovering God’s hidden Parishioners express their sympathy to treasures. the family of It is not enough to discover hidden treasures, one must make efforts to possess them.

To one who does not understand, efforts aimed at possessing God’s hidden treasures may seem wasteful. The parable of the net towards the end of our Sunday gospel Dear Parishioners, deals with final judgment. References to final judgment are often These are the RCIA upcoming dates: unsettling and some tiptoe around them.

Butler’s Parable of the Talents (1998) sees an aged Lauren Olamina in 2090, surrounded by several of her most devoted disciples at the launch of the first Earthseed mission, the beginning of the extrasolar colonization project to which she has devoted her entire adult life. We are told very early on in Parable of the Sower (1993), when Olamina is still a young teenager, that “The Destiny of Earthseed is to take root among the stars” (Butler Sower 85)—and by the end of Talents that dream seems to have been achieved, though it has personally cost Olamina nearly everything else in her life, including her daughter, her husband, her brother, and her personal safety. She herself is now much too old to go on such a mission, a Moses permanently denied her own Promised Land—though she imagines her ashes someday being brought to one of the Earthseed colonies after her death.

  • The Sower Newsletter for the Presbyterian Women in the Synod of Lakes & Prairies February, 2020 Editor: Kathleen Keefer
    The Sower Newsletter for the Presbyterian Women in the Synod of Lakes & Prairies February, 2020 Editor: Kathleen Keefer MUSINGS FROM THE MODERATOR: Starting a new year always brings the thought of New Year’s resolutions. If you are like me, you may resolve to eat more healthily, exercise more, read the Bible and pray more often, or any number of other things. The thing I always have trouble with is following through on these resolutions. Making something a new habit takes time and perseverance. It is easy to fall off and return to old ways before something new becomes a habit. I know I do that and I suspect many others do, too. How do you keep up the struggle when there isn’t much to show for your efforts? One way is to do the new thing at the same time every day. Another way might be to give yourself a small reward for doing the new thing. Yet another way is to enlist a buddy who will encourage you and give you support, as you will support that person. What is the thing that you would most like to change in your life? Take some time to think it through and decide what you want to change. Then make yourself small steps toward that goal, but also give yourself some slack if you don’t make your goal as fast as you’d like to. It would also help to ask God for support in working toward your goal. Handing over the burden to God frees you to worry less about how fast you are getting there and takes the burden off your shoulders.

Degree awarded June 2017 ii © 2017 Shane Donnelly Hall iii DISSERTATION ABSTRACT Shane Donnelly Hall Doctor of Philosophy Environmental Studies Program June 2017 Title: War by Other Means: Environmental Violence in the 21st Century This dissertation studies the intersections of militarism, climate change, and environmental justice in U.S. literature and popular culture since the end of the Cold War. The project identifies different mechanisms enacting environmental military violence through discursive analysis of literary and cultural texts, and considers the ideas, values, and beliefs that support environmental military violence. In each chapter I trace a different dynamic of environmental violence structured through the logics of U.S. counterinsurgency theory by examining what I call “narrative political ecologies”— cultural texts that center concerns of ecology and broadly defined political economy.

Bennett aC pers Brooklyn Law School, [email protected] Follow this and additional works at: https://brooklynworks.brooklaw.edu/faculty Part of the Law and Race Commons Recommended Citation 94 N.Y.U. L. Rev. 1 (2019) This Article is brought to you for free and open access by BrooklynWorks. It has been accepted for inclusion in Faculty Scholarship by an authorized administrator of BrooklynWorks. NEW YORK UNIVERSITY LAW REVIEW VOLUME 94 APRIL 2019 NUMBER 1 ARTICLES AFROFUTURISM, CRITICAL RACE THEORY, AND POLICING IN THE YEAR 2044 I. BENNETr CAPERS* In 2044, the United States is projected to become a "majority-minority" country, with people of color making up more than half of the population. And yet in the public imagination-from Robocop to Minority Report, from Star Trek to Star Wars, from A Clockwork Orange to 1984 to Brave New World-the future is usu- ally envisioned as majority white. What might the future look like in year 2044, when people of color make up the majority in terms of numbers, or in the ensuing years, when they also wield the majority of political and economic power? And specifically, what might policing look like? This Article attempts to answer these questions by examining how artists, cybertheorists, and speculative scholars of color-Afrofuturists and Critical Race Theorists-have imagined the future. What can we learn from Afrofuturism, the term given to "speculative fiction that treats African-American themes and addresses African-American concerns [in the con- text of] techno culture?" And what can we learnfrom Critical Race Theory and its "father" Derrick Bell, who famously wrote of space explorers to examine issues of race and law? What do they imagine policing to be, and what can we imagine policing to be in a brown and black world? * Copyright @ 2019 by I.

  • Rhetorical Strategies: Any Device Used to Analyze the Interplay Between a Writer/Speaker, a Specific Audience, and a Particular Purpose
    RHETORICAL STRATEGIES: ANY DEVICE USED TO ANALYZE THE INTERPLAY BETWEEN A WRITER/SPEAKER, A SPECIFIC AUDIENCE, AND A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. 1. Abstract diction: (compare to concrete diction) Abstract diction refers to words that describe concepts rather than concrete images (ideas and qualities rather than observable or specific things, people, or places.) These words do not appeal imaginatively to the reader's senses. Abstract words create no "mental picture" or any other imagined sensations for readers. Abstract words include: Love, Hate, Feelings, Emotions, Temptation, Peace, Seclusion, Alienation, Politics, Rights, Freedom, Intelligence, Attitudes, Progress, Guilt, etc. Try to create a mental picture of "love." Do you picture a couple holding hands, a child hugging a mother, roses and valentines? These are not "love." Instead, they are concrete objects you associate with love. Because it is an abstraction, the word "love" itself does not imaginatively appeal to the reader's senses. "Ralph and Jane have experienced difficulties in their lives, and both have developed bad attitudes because of these difficulties. They have now set goals to surmount these problems, although the unfortunate consequences of their experiences are still apparent in many everyday situations." 2. Absolutes: an adverbial clause that has a nonfinite verb or no verb at all (the clause is missing “was” or “were” or it is replaced by a verbal, making it dependent). The prisoners marched past, their hands above their heads. (The prisoners marched past. Their hands were above their heads.) The work having been finished, the gardener came to ask for payment. (The work was finished. The gardener came to ask for payment.) “But I knew her sick from the disease that would not go, her legs bunched under the yellow sheets, the bones gone limp as worms.”—Sandra Cisneros, The House on Mango Street “We pretended with our heads thrown back, our arms limp and useless, dangling like the dead.”—Sandra Cisneros, The House on Mango Street 3.
