So, still in his Lk 10:38-42 dream, Solomon answers God’s question about what he desires most, Thursday: Ex 40:16-21, 34-38; Ps 84:3-6a, 8a, 11; and God grants his request for wisdom in abundance. Mt 13:47-53 In our waking hours, we are much distracted by work, home, family, Friday: Lv 23:1, 4-11, 15-16, 27, 34b-37; Ps 81:3-6, 10 traffic, entertainment, and many worries. When we try to think about -11ab; Mt 13:54-58 what we really want out of life, we have trouble even imagining what Saturday: Lv 25:1, 8-17; Ps 67:2-3, 5, 7-8; Mt 14:1-12 that might be. But deep inside, our real longings dwell, known to God Sunday: Dn 7:9-10, 13-14; Ps 97:1-2, 5-6, 9; 2 Pt 1:16- and to the Holy Spirit. Our dreams, unencumbered by defenses, may 19; Mt 17:1-9 hold clues to what our deepest needs are, or what bothers us most. They could be God speaking. MASS INTENTIONS Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc. To have a Mass said for a loved one or for another inten- tion, stop by the Parish Center to make arrangements.

Ecumenically, it means that the Latin 8:30 a.m. Evan Traub (RIP) Rite now reflects the wealth of the East in having more than one prayer Thursday August 3 available to the Church. Pastorally, it actually acknowledges the place 6:30 a.m. Marion Bohn (RIP) of the assembly in prayer, which is particularly clear in the Masses with 8:30 a.m. Hernandez Family (RIP) Children. In fact, the traditional prayers of the Eastern Church served Friday August 4 as models for our new prayers. 6:30 a.m. Gil Angat (RIP) In the East, what we call the Eucharistic Prayer is called the anaphora, 8:30 a.m. Agata Mao and Phillip Thiet (RIP) and there are three main families of anaphora. Each family has a dif- Saturday August 5 ferent “recipe” for arranging the usual parts of these prayers. All 8:30 a.m. Memorial Society anaphora have “intercessions” included, but the Churches of Antioch 5:30 p.m. Stephen and Hazel Kunka (RIP) place them toward the end of the prayer, Alexandria prefers them at Sunday August 6 the beginning before the “Holy, Holy,” and Syria puts them at the very 7:30 a.m. Joseph Varghese (RIP) end. One branch of the Syrian family is unique in not mentioning the 9:30 a.m. Ashley Nguyen (Birthday) words of Jesus at the Last Supper. The Roman Canon we once prayed 11:30 a.m. Dam Bui (RIP) exclusively has some connection with the Alexandrian family, but once 1:30 p.m. SJW Parishioners (Intentions) the signal for creativity was given, all the wealth of every prayer tradi- 5:30 p.m. Marie Tran Thi Thuoc (RIP) tion was on the table, and our Sunday Mass has been greatly enriched. 7:30 p.m. Guadalupe Gutierrez (RIP) —Rev.
