  • Graces and Fruits of Perpetual Adoration (Part 2)
    GRACES AND FRUITS OF PERPETUAL ADORATION (PART 2) St. Peter Catholic Church Faith Fact June 2016 THE MISSIONARIES OF THE MOST HOLY EUCHARIST PERSONAL GRACES First of all, in prostrating oneself before the Blessed Sacrament, the adorer experiences the tenderness of God. [… I]n Galilee, the crowds pressed around Jesus to hear and see him perform signs and wonders. Think of the woman who touched Jesus by her faith, thus releasing His power. Jesus knowing that power had come out of him said, “Who touched me?” (Mt 5, 30). Our faith touches the Heart of Jesus and releases its healing power and love on us, our family and the world, whenever we go to him in the Blessed Sacrament. In the silence of adoration, we respond to the invitation of Jesus to the multitudes who says: “Come to me ...”, all you who are thirsty ... all of you who are weary ... repose in a deserted place ... Because from my heart shall flow rivers of living water.” He was speaking of the Holy Spirit. In the Blessed Sacrament, Jesus replenishes our strength and puts new hope in us when all seems lost. John Paul II has said: “It is good to spend time with Him, leaning on his breast like the Beloved Disciple, to be touched by the infinite love of His heart. If, in our epoch, Christianity is to be distinguished above all by the ‘art of prayer’, how can we fail to feel a renewed need to spend time in spiritual converse, in silent adoration, in heartfelt love before Christ present in the Blessed Sacrament? Many times I have experienced this, and I received strength, consolation and support!”5 To better evangelize the adorer must first be evangelized.

  • Holy Hour for July – 2016 Mercy, Forgiveness & Healing
    HOLY HOUR FOR JULY – 2016 MERCY, FORGIVENESS & HEALING HYMN: The Saviour is waiting to enter your heart. I ADORE you profoundly, O my Jesus, I acknowledge you to be true God and true Man, and by this act of adoration I intend to atone for the coldness of so many Christians who pass before Thy churches and sometimes before the very Tabernacle in which Thou art pleased to remain at all hours with loving patience to give Thyself to Thy faithful people, and do not so much as bend the knee before Thee, and who, by their indifference proclaim that they grow weary of this heavenly manna, like the people of Israel in the wilderness. I offer Thee in reparation for this grievous negligence, the Most Precious Blood which Thou didst shed from Thy five wounds, and especially from Thy sacred Side, and entering therein, I repeat with true recollection of spirit: O Sacrament most holy! O Sacrament divine! All praise and all thanksgiving be every moment Thine. SILENCE: 3 minutes. Families are the foundation of life. The biblical family is the model on which God is building a spiritual family of glorified sons and daughters. This parable tells of a son who was lost and then found. While it shows many details about a family, in the end one truth stands out—a father's patient endurance for the son he loves. SCRIPTURE READING: Luke 15: 11- 23 SILENCE: 10 minutes. REFLECTION: What better declaration of God’ compassion than this passage we just heard. Jesus himself tells the story of a boy who thought he had wandered too far, sinned too much, to be welcomed back into his father’s house.

These rites prepare the catechumen/candidate for the reception of all the sacraments of Initiation: Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist. For more information, please contact our parish office to speak with a member of our catechetical team (386) 767-6111. First Reconciliation: Families of children who have reached the age of reason (7) or who are in the second grade are formed together as part of our parish family formation program. Please contact our parish pastoral team (386-767-6111) to register for Family Formation and our sacramental program. Reconciliation: All Catholics are welcomed to this sacrament of love and forgiveness each week on Saturdays from 2:45pm-3:45pm in our Adoration Chapel, located beneath the bell tower.

  • Acedia: Enemy of Spiritual Joy
    ACEDIA: ENEMY OF SPIRITUAL JOY • Jean-Charles Nault • “Acedia drives man to turn his back on the situation of tribulation, which is that of the Christian living in the world without being of the world.” It is told that in the days of the desert Fathers, “one Saturday evening, the brothers were eating at the church of the Kellia. As they brought the soup to table, Abba Helladios the Alexandrine began to cry. Abba James said to him: “Why are you crying, abba?” He answered: “Because the joy of the soul has come to an end, that is, the joy of the fast, and now begins the satisfaction of the body.”1 The conception of joy particular to these spiritual masters of Egypt, living in the fourth and fifth centuries, perhaps makes us smile. Undoubtedly we do not have the same experience of their main preoccupation, summed up in a single, fundamental question: how is one to be saved? Such was the goal of their asceticism and the deepest aspiration of their hearts. Such was the source of their joy, but also of their tears. In this their insight revealed to them an intimidating obstacle towering on the path of salvation. They named this obstacle akèdia, which literally meant: the lack of care for one’s salvation. 1Helladios S1, in Les Sentences des Pères du désert.

How did the monastic and theological tradition understand and study it throughout the centuries? Does it concern a curse from another age, or is it still a problem today? These are the questions that we will attempt to answer in the following pages.

The Mass may be scheduled at any time. Strive to make the Mass open to as wide a variety of needs as possible. Include families of miscarried or stillborn children and even families searching for spiritual healing after an abortion. ▪ Parish bulletins could regularly carry an invitation to parents of stillborn children or miscarried babies to contact the pastor, deacon, or pastoral minister and arrange for appropriate blessings. ▪ In the months following the loss of an infant or child, it is important to provide pastoral care. One can simply stay in touch by making a quick phone call, or sending a note of care, or providing resources to support parents in their grief.

  • Mass Reconciliation Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament Parish School
    —————————— MARCH 15, 2020 —————————— Parish Mass School Reconciliation Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament Come enter more fully into Lent and create space for your relationship with God! It’s not too late to join! + March 5, 2020 Dear Parishioners: April 1, 2020, is Census Day. It is very important for parishes and faith communities of the Archdiocese of Seattle to be involved. Some of the populations we serve are undercounted. In the next few days, every household will receive an invitation to participate. Upon receiving the invitation, one person from each household should respond in one of three ways: online, by phone, or by mail. The census will be available in various languages. In May of this year, census takers will begin home visits to those who have not replied between March and April. As mandated by the U.S. Constitution, every person living in the United States, children included, must be counted, regardless of their immigration status. Please respond by participating in the census and encourage your family, friends, and neighbors to do the same. As members of this parish community and communities in which we live and work, each of us has much at stake as we prepare to respond to the 2020 Census. In the context of a culturally diverse Church with varied pastoral needs, we have a responsibility to know our people and to do what we can to ensure that safety net programs for individuals and families living at or below the poverty line in Western Washington are adequately funded. The federal government distributes more than $675 billion to state, local, and tribal governments based on census data.

  • Rahner's Christian Pessimism: a Response to the Sorrow of Aids Paul G
    Theological Studies 58(1997) RAHNER'S CHRISTIAN PESSIMISM: A RESPONSE TO THE SORROW OF AIDS PAUL G. CROWLEY, S.J. [Editor's Note: The author suggests that the universal sorrow of AIDS stands as a metaphor for other forms of suffering and raises distinctive theological questions on the meaning of hope, God's involvement in evil, and how God's empathy can be ex­ perienced in the mystery of disease. As an expression of radical realism and hope, Rahner's theology helps us find in the sorrow of AIDS an opening into the mystery of God.] N ONE OF his novels, Nikos Kazantzakis describes St. Francis of As­ I sisi asking in prayer what more God might require of him. Francis has already restored San Damiano and given up everything else for God. Yet he is riddled with fear of contact with lepers. He confides to Brother Leo: "Even when Fm far away from them, just hearing the bells they wear to warn passers-by to keep their distance is enough to make me faint"1 God's response to Francis's prayer is precisely what he does not want: Francis is to face his fears and embrace the next leper he sees on the road. Soon he hears the dreaded clank of the leper's bell. Yet Francis moves through his fears, embraces the leper, and even kisses his wounds. Jerome Miller, in his phenomenology of suffering, describes the importance of this scene: Only when he embraced that leper, only when he kissed the very ulcers and stumps he had always found abhorrent, did he experience for the first time that joy which does not come from this world and which he would later identify with the joy of crucifixion itself...

  • Fr. Mike's Message WEEK ONE Epiphany Jan. 3
    Fr. Mike’s message WEEK ONE Epiphany Jan. 3 2021 Happy New Year! Welcome to 2021. I don’t think I’ve ever been so happy for a new year to begin. Last year was awful in so many ways - ways that none of us could have imagined just one year ago. For me, it all began on Friday March 13, 2020. Yes, “Friday the Thirteenth” was the day when everything changed in an instant. The Lenten season had just begun. The parish staff and I had spent months preparing for all our Lent and Easter celebrations. And then on March 13th everything began shutting down due to the pandemic - schools closed and Masses were cancelled. It’s like someone flipped a switch from ON to OFF. What now? All of my routines - all of the ways I was accustomed to worshipping, ministering and connecting with parishioners was disrupted. In those first few days, I felt stuck. SCREEN: Unstuck main screen Today we are beginning a new message series titled, Unstuck. And I think this title captures what so many people are hoping for in the new year. And I’m not referring to being physically stuck - like ‘stuck at home’ because of the pandemic. Here’s what we mean: after the year we’ve been through we can all find ourselves feeling a little ‘stuck’ emotionally and spiritually - we’re unsure of where to go, what to do, and how to channel our emotions and energy. What could being ‘stuck’ look like for you? Maybe you’re stuck in anger over a hurt that you haven’t moved past.
