The apostles said to the Lord, "Increase our faith." The Lord replied, "If you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you would say to this

mulberry tree,'Be uprooted and planted in the sea,' and it would obey you."Who among you would say to your servant who has just come in

from plowing or tending sheep in the field, 'Come here immediately

and take your place at table'? Would he not rather say to him,

Discipleship at One Hour a Week

One Hour of Financial Support Consider basing your weekly contribution to St. Joseph Parish on your salary for one hour of work. This works out to 2.5% of your weekly income.

One Hour of Prayer In addition to Sunday Mass consider praying for 10 minutes a day. One hour a week. The prayer could be silent, prayers you learned as a child, or simply speaking and listening to the God who loves us.

One Hour of Service Consider offering one hour of service each week as an expression of discipleship. The service might be in the parish or through other organizations that share our concern for families, the poor, the isolated and sick.

Children’sCorner

In today's Gospel we hear Jesus teach about faith and Rincón Juvenil service to God. The context is a continuing dialogue between Jesus and his followers about what it means to be a disciple of Je- sus. Jesus has just finished an instruc- tion on sin and forgiveness. There are two related teachings that Jesus of- fers to his disciples when they cry out for an increase in faith. The first is the familiar reminder that faith, even just a little, will enable the followers of Jesus to do wondrous things. But this uplifting and inspiring teaching is quickly followed by the second teaching, a caution about knowing one's place in God's plans. The disciples of Jesus are to under- stand themselves as servants to God and his plans. Even when God works wonders through us, with our mustard seed-sized faith, we must not seek praise. Our participa- tion in God's plans is God's grace to us—nothing more, nothing less. When we are graced enough to cooperate with God, the work we do is nothing more than our obli- gation to God as faithful stewards.
