Saint Theresa of the Child Jesus 24Th Sunday in Ordinary Time September 17, 2017 Mission: We the People of the Co-Cathedral of St Co-Cathedral of Saint Theresa of the Child Jesus 24th Sunday in Ordinary Time September 17, 2017 Mission: We the people of the Co-Cathedral of St. Theresa of the Child Jesus, seek to be an example of the presence of God through our Christian Catholic worship, education, service and stewardship of all God’s gifts. We celebrate our diversity of age, culture, language, and view points as a sign of God’s all powerful and ever-present love in our community of faith. We strive to witness the gospel of Jesus Christ to evangelize and to respond in love, as well as compassion to our community in Honolulu, to be a welcoming place to all who seek the grace, fellowship, and love of God. Clergy Team Pastor Fr. Gregorio Honorio Jr. In-Residence Fr. Sydney Fernandes Deacon Francis Leasiolagi Photo by Google VHM Chaplain Fr. Dominic Nguyen VHM Deacon Anthony Nguyen It has been said that one of the most distinctive features of Jesus’ teachings is the Schedule of Masses exhortation to forgive those who have offended us. Jesus was very explicit about this, Sunday 6:15am, 8:00am and he left us his own example by forgiving his executioners while he hung dying on the cross. 10:30am, 6:00pm Saturday Vigil 5:00pm Forgiving Mondays - Thursdays 6:30am Quite a bit is written today on the question of reconciliation. Until recently we have thought the process begins with the offender repenting of the offense and then asking for Fridays & Saturdays 8:00am forgiveness. Those who have done serious research in the area disagree. They believe that Vietnamese Masses the process must begin with the one offended offering forgiveness and that this willingness Sunday 3:30pm to forgive transforms one from being a victim to being a survivor. Furthermore, such Saturday Vigil 7:00pm magnanimity is what may touch the heart of the offender, who may thus be transformed from being an offender even to becoming a friend. Mon, Tues, Thurs 5:30pm It is very difficult to forgive someone who has offended us, because it may be that our honor Sacrament of Reconciliation is at stake or that our very person has been threatened. Very deep feelings are involved. Wednesdays 6:15pm-7:00pm When we have been hurt, we want to inflict pain in return; we want to even the score. Most people would not blame us for feeling like this. In fact, they would even encourage us in Eucharistic Adoration our retaliation. However, retaliation is the way of the world and not the way of the Lord. Exposition Once again the disciples of Jesus follow a less-travel road. Wednesdays 6:15pm-7:00pm Being Forgiven Adoration Chapel Today we have yet another example of how disciples must give what they have been given. Everyday 6:00am-10:30pm The gospel suggests that nothing another owes us can compare with what we owe God. If God has been so generous in forgiving us, surely we can be generous in forgiving others. Co-Cathedral Office How many times must we be willing to forgive? As many times as God is willing to forgive Monday-Friday 8:00am-12:00pm us. If we cannot forgive others, perhaps we have not been transformed by God’s forgiveness 1:00pm-4:30pm of us. It may be we have not yet been transformed enough. The process of becoming a Saturdays 8:30am-12:00pm forgiving person takes time. For some it may take a lifetime. Only little by little are our pettiness and indignation reduced and our desire to strike back diminished. Perhaps we need Sundays Closed to be forgiven seventy-seven times before we can forgive once, but as disciples of Jesus we Phone 808-521-1700 are expected to give the forgiveness we have been given. Fax 808-599-3629 Pay What You Owe E-mail [email protected] Lest we think forgiveness provides an easy way out for offenders, we are reminded that Website www.cocathedral.org ultimately justice will prevail. If we remain untransformed by God’s forgiveness of us, as Address 712 North School St. demonstrated by our unwillingness to forgive others, then we are liable to judgment. And Honolulu, HI 96817 this judgment often springs from within us. Our unwillingness to forgive can eat away at us, and we can carry hurts from childhood far into adult years. A slight from a co-worker Saint Theresa School can bore itself so deeply into our consciousness that we become obsessed by it. Forgiving School Principal others, as difficult as that may be, is in the long run much easier than bearing the weight of Conception (Bernie) Gora resentfulness, vindictiveness, and unresolved frustration. When we forgive we truly begin to be healed.

  • To Forgive Divine” • August 31, 2003 • #1007 1 by David O
    “To Err is Human; To Forgive Divine” • August 31, 2003 • #1007 1 by David O. Dykes • Part 6 in the series “No, That’s NOT in the Bible!” INTRODUCTION In the series entitled “No, that’s NOT in the Bible” we discover some of these pseudo-scriptures actually contradict the Bible. For instance, believing the adage “God helps those who help themselves” can hinder a person from seeking God’s help. The aphorism “God won’t put more on you than you can bear” can be dangerous because it can create confusion and guilt. Have you ever heard someone say, “The Bible says, ‘to err is human; to forgive, divine?’” No, that’s NOT in the Bible, but the statement is basically true. We are all sinners. It’s just part of our human nature. It is part of God’s divine nature to forgive, so when we forgive others, we are displaying a God-like quality. But because we are human we all err. Actually, the correct pronunciation of the word “err” rhymes with “sir.” So, we should say, “To urr is human; to forgive divine.” But if I happen to mispronounce it in this message, will you please act divinely and forgive me?” We all experience relationship problems in which we are hurt or offended, so we’d better learn how to forgive. Even people in the church don’t always get along. Mike and I have a great relationship based on mutual love and respect, but not every preacher and music director get along as well as we do.

  • Giving Truth in Love Eph
    Page !1 of !26 Truth & Love - CH 5 ONLY GIVING THE TRUTH IN LOVE TRUTH & LOVE Chapter 5 – Giving Truth In Love Eph. 4:15-16(NLT), “Instead we will speak the truth in love, growing in every way more and more like Christ, who is the head of His body the church. He makes the whole body fit together perfectly.” “Love is the moral and intellectual peak, the ability and choice to love, to give value to someone. You can never love without the freedom of will. Freedom is indispensable to love. And God’s supreme goal for us is to love Him with all our hearts and love others. If truth is not undergirded in love it makes the possessor of that truth obnoxious and the truth repulsive.” - Dr. Ravi Zacharias GOD ACTUALLY SAW SOMETHING OF VALUE IN ME A young woman named Amy walked into Gateway Church with her lesbian partner, hand in hand, hoping to get a reaction, anticipating anger and judgmental glares. She and her partner received something much different! They came on a mission to shock people. Instead, they were the ones that were shocked by the love and friendship they received from everyone at the church. Amy continued to grow in her knowledge of the Scriptures, falling more and more in love with the Lord. The following year, God had another surprise for her. She went to a seminar called ‘To Be Told’ hosted at Gateway. As the pastor shared, she realized that her hatred toward men came from an abusive situation she experienced as a child.

    A STUDY IN THE LIFE OF JOSEPH. (Genesis 37-50) CONTENTS INTRODUCTION -------- LESSON 1 Make the Most of Each Day -------- LESSON 2 Here Comes Trouble -------- LESSON 3 Keep Looking Up -------- LESSON 4 Walking in Forgiveness -------- LESSON 5 Helping Others with Their Dreams -------- LESSON 6 Embrace Your Dream INTRODUCTION Most people dream while they sleep. I want to challenge you to wake up and dream. Wake up to a brand-new day and dream with your eyes wide open. Wake up and live each day to see your God-given purpose fulfilled each and every day. Choose to make the most of each day. You see, our lives are just a collection of single days, one right after the other. The sun rises, the sun sets. The success of our lives will be determined by how we handle each individual day. A lot of people only live to survive each day. Very few people live intentionally to truly succeed each day. Because of this, many people wind up at the end of their lives with no real accomplishment or no real value or meaning to their life. Psalm 90:10,12 says, “Our days may come to seventy years, or eighty, if our strength endures; yet the best of them are but trouble and sorrow, for they quickly pass, and we fly away.12 Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.” This scripture was written by Moses 3,000 years ago at the end of Israel’s 40 years in the wilderness. Instead of traveling from Egypt directly into their promised land, they settled for the wilderness and an entire generation, including Moses, died without entering into God’s best.

PAULTON (SOMERSET) AND LONDON 2 INTRODUCTION By WILLIAM FRANKLIN GRAHAM, D.D., LL.D. Dr. J. EDWIN ORR, in my opinion, is one of the greatest authorities on the history of religious revivals in the Protestant world. I think that God has given him one of the greatest and most unique ministries anywhere in the nation, and his contribution to the Revival which I believe is on the way is invaluable. I know of no man who has a greater passion for worldwide revival of a greater love for the souls of men. About fifteen years ago I first heard of Edwin Orr through his books. His books in faith were a tremendous blessing in my own life. Twelve years ago I met him in Florida for the first time. Thus began an acquaintance which has ripened into warm friendship. In 1947, during our evangelistic campaigns in Great Britain, I heard that Dr. Orr was engaged in research into the nineteenth-century awakenings, so I wrote him at Oxford University and afterwards spent half a day there, viewing the sights of the ancient city and making the most of an opportunity to discuss the story of past revivals and the dreams and hopes of another in our generation.

Haverford Journal 2.0, if you will. If you’re familiar with this little publication, you have probably already noticed a lot of the superficial changes; if this is your first time reading the Journal, trust us, this cover is much cooler than the old one. So, why are we writing to you? Other than to point out the obvious, we, Thea Hoga- rth and Steve Chehi, wanted to fill you in on what we’ve been up to for the past semester. The Journal is a relatively young publication, which really means that every time the old editors graduate, the new editors try to do something new. With no real precedent to guide us (not even the phone number of a printing company), we’ve decided to preserve what the original editors started, but change our attitudes just a little bit. We won’t bore you with all the details, but we’d like to point out just a few of the new features to be excited about. First, you’ll notice the subtitle on the cover, “Myth & Marginality;” from now on we hope to title our issues according to a theme that unites all the papers we select.
