TERESA OF AVILA OF SAINT JOSEPH FIFTEENTH SUNDAY OF ORDINARY TIME This week’s Gospel and the one for next week describe how Jesus sent the disciples to minister in his name and the disciples’ return to Jesus afterward. These two passages, however, are not presented together in Mark’s Gospel. Inserted between the two is the report of Herod’s fears that Jesus is John the Baptist back from the dead. In Mark’s Gospel, Je- sus’ ministry is presented in connection with the teaching of John the Baptist. Jesus’ public ministry begins after John is arrested. John the Baptist prepared the way for Jesus, who preached the fulfillment of the Kingdom of God. While we do not read these details about John the Baptist in our Gospel this week or next week, our Lectionary sequence stays consistent with Mark’s theme. Recall that last week we heard how Jesus was rejected in his hometown of Nazareth. The insertion of the reminder about John the Baptist’s ministry and his death at the hands of Herod in Mark’s Gospel makes a similar point. Mark reminds his readers about this dan- gerous context for Jesus’ ministry and that of his disciples. Preaching repentance and the Kingdom of God is dangerous business for Jesus and for his disciples. Mark wants his readers to remember that we, too, may find resistance as we choose to be disciples of Jesus. Mark’s Gospel tells us that Jesus sent out the Twelve. These twelve were selected from among Jesus’ disciples and named by Mark in chapter 3. Mark notes that these twelve are also called “apostles.” The word apostle means “one who is sent.” The number twelve is also a symbolic number, representing the twelve tribes of Israel.

  • Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018
    Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018 Conforming to General Convention 2018 1 Preface Christians have since ancient times honored men and women whose lives represent heroic commitment to Christ and who have borne witness to their faith even at the cost of their lives. Such witnesses, by the grace of God, live in every age. The criteria used in the selection of those to be commemorated in the Episcopal Church are set out below and represent a growing consensus among provinces of the Anglican Communion also engaged in enriching their calendars. What we celebrate in the lives of the saints is the presence of Christ expressing itself in and through particular lives lived in the midst of specific historical circumstances. In the saints we are not dealing primarily with absolutes of perfection but human lives, in all their diversity, open to the motions of the Holy Spirit. Many a holy life, when carefully examined, will reveal flaws or the bias of a particular moment in history or ecclesial perspective. It should encourage us to realize that the saints, like us, are first and foremost redeemed sinners in whom the risen Christ’s words to St. Paul come to fulfillment, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” The “lesser feasts” provide opportunities for optional observance. They are not intended to replace the fundamental celebration of Sunday and major Holy Days. As the Standing Liturgical Commission and the General Convention add or delete names from the calendar, successive editions of this volume will be published, each edition bearing in the title the date of the General Convention to which it is a response.

Well...all that badly. But falling from a bicycle is much different from falling into life. Into someone’s waiting hands. Both can be catastrophic, if you make them, when you emphasize the flaws - the rocks - the yellow curtains - the passing motorcar - a pressed flower album And growing up is no easy chore, for then you’ve got the added risk of others on the road.

    ST. ANASTASIA CATHOLIC CHURCH 7390 WEST MANCHESTER AVE. LOS ANGELES, CA 90045 310.670.2243 ◆ ST-ANASTASIA.ORG ◆ PLEASE CONTINUE SEARCHING FOR NEW AND ENCOURAGING STORIES SHARED THROUGH VERY RELIABLE WEBSITES AS: ANGELUS, ARCHDIOCESE OF LOS ANGELES, ETC. THEIR ARTICLES ARE FULL OF VERACITY AND HOPE! Fifteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time Parables, Anyone? When Jesus answers the apostles' question about why he speaks in parables, it may seem as if He is using them to confuse people. We know He is trying to spread the Good News of God's kingdom. So He talks to the crowds in parables, easily understood stories that usually have a moral or that end with a question for the hearers. He uses these stories to teach the crowd. Jesus threw out parables like a farmer sowing seeds. Some of them fell on the ears of those who would be disciples. But most fell on the ears of people not ready to understand. So how do we receive His Word? Do we hear it without understan - ding, letting it go in one ear and out the other? Do we hear it joyfully, but then forget it when troubles or difficulties come along? Do we listen to the word but ignore it in the face of some later temptation? If we want the word to grow strong in us, we can take steps to help ourselves understand it. We can come to Church early and spend a few minutes with the readings before Mass. After Mass we can talk about the readings or the homily with our family over breakfast.

  • Saint Kateri Tekakwitha (Kuh-TARE-Ee Tek-A-QUEETH-A) Keep This Story for the Next 3 Weeks to Complete the Activities in This Fun Pack!
    Saint Kateri Tekakwitha (Kuh-TARE-ee Tek-a-QUEETH-a) Keep this story for the next 3 weeks to complete the activities in this fun pack! Saint Kateri Tekakwitha was born in 1656 in Ossernenon (today Auriesville, New York). Her father was a Mohawk Chief. Her parents died from smallpox, and Kateri herself caught smallpox but survived. The smallpox left her almost blind and with scars all over her face. She was raised by her aunt and uncle after her parents passed away. When she was 10 years old, Kateri’s village was visited by missionaries who introduced her to Christianity. Kateri was baptized when she was 20 years old. Some of Mohawks in her village opposed her conversion, so she left her tribe and went to St. Francis Xavior Mission, a Christian Mohawk village in Kahnawake, Quebec. A year after her baptism, Kateri received her First Communion on Christmas Day in 1677. She spent her life in prayer, teaching children, and caring for the elderly and sick. She was also known for living a life of chastity. On April 17, 1680, just before her 24th birthday, Kateri died from tuberculosis and was buried at St. Francis Xavier Mission. Her last words were: “Jesos Konoronkwa” (Jesus I love you). Right after her death, it is said that Kateri’s smallpox scars disappeared from her face and she radiated with beauty. Kateri Tekakwitha was beatified by Pope John Paul II on June 22, 1980 and canonized as a saint on October 21, 2012 by Pope Benedict XVI. Her Feast day is July 14.
