S. Paluch Co., Inc. Ox Roast Fair! TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION PASTOR’S CORNER Last week’s “Treasure” no doubt raised an I love the statement made in a preaching resource for this Sunday's eyebrow or two with the image of the scripture readings. “God cannot help but forgive, because God, who is deacons scurrying through the streets of Love, loves us too much." We are all imperfect human beings who fail Rome, or perhaps galloping on horseback, to love and forgive at times. But God keeps reminding us, because He with fragments of eucharistic bread from the loves us so much, that we are made in His image and likeness and are bishop’s liturgy. These would be dropped always capable of loving and forgiving to a greater degree as we grow into the chalice at outlying celebrations, in grace. As we gather as a faith community to hear the Word of God presided over by presbyters, to express unity and receive the presence of Christ in the Eucharist, may the graces of with the bishop, and perhaps also to remind God be poured forth so that we can live more loving and forgiving the presbyters that they were not free agents. lives and encourage the growth of the kingdom of God in our world. The Council of Laodicea forbade the custom Jesus expresses in today's gospel passage that the woman's many of the fermentum in the year 348. Generally, sins are forgiven because she has shown great love. God loves His one of the rules of interpreting law is that human family so perfectly that He wants us to never be discouraged, to grow in faith and love and to go forth in peace! people don’t make laws about things that aren’t happening. So, by mid-fourth century, Fr. Ed Stafford we have an important clue that what had once been a Roman custom had become PRAYER INTENTIONS widespread. Interestingly, when the Church of England Suzy Hafemeister Paula Krebs Lynn Davis (and its related bodies) went through a Joe Robine Diane Sanderson Dan Nuti liturgical renewal in the mid-nineteenth Sabina Delgado Irene Welling Jo Marie Bailey century, they reclaimed this custom from the Andy Kollarik Cheryl Erickson Susan Temple mists of history. Today, it is the custom in Joan Kodash Dean Kohanyi Mary Ann Feddor some Anglican dioceses for a fragment of the Jane Raps Zoe Craig (Pinter) Dan Baumbick host from the bishop’s Holy Week liturgy Kathy Morcarski Bunny Fritz Natalie Jahn (what we call the Chrism Mass) to be carried Pat Smith Alivia Julliana Vic Santillo to every parish.
