Dear Parishioners,

Last week, there was an incident at St. Joseph campus where someone was in the building after everything was locked up and caused some very minor damage. Nothing too troubling, but in discussing it with the staff, we realized that our St. Joseph campus isn’t secure. While we think we know who all has keys, we aren’t certain. With the key card system in place at St. Joseph campus, it makes sense to switch fully over to using it when someone needs to access the building after hours. We’re sending a notice individually to parishioners who we know have keys so they can swap them for a key card, but I’m putting this in the bulletin in case there are any keys out there that we don’t know about. Changing all the locks is expensive and I want to avoid that if at all possible, so please contact the office if you have a key so that we can get you a key card. I appreciate your cooperation as we try to make sure our church is as secure as possible. Thank you! Fr. Liekhus

any age is that of watchfulness, of August 11th 2019 19th Sunday in Ordinary earnest Christian living in faith, hope, and love. Time Wisdom 16:6-9, Hebrews • 11,1-2,8-19 Jesus here instructs his disciples on the skills required for being a watchman, someone who is prepared for the Lord’s return. First, we are to live in the kingdom, not relying on earthly treasure but on that heavenly treasure that is won by almsgiving. We are also to be vigilant, awake, dressed, and attentive for his coming. The Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC) says that vigilance at prayer is “custody of the heart” (CCC 2849) and that “in prayer the disciple keeps watch, attentive to Him Who Is and Him Who Comes, in memory of his first coming in the lowliness of the flesh, and in the hope of his second coming in glory” (CCC 2612). And for those who are entrusted with the “stewardship” of the Church, or what Jesus calls, “all (the master’s) property, “ they must also be sure to be vigilant in supplying the needs of the other servants, “to distribute the food allowance at the proper time” and in not abusing the privileges of office or those over which they exercise it. The whole of Christian history, the history of the Church, is the story of the great night watch. At this point in our collective journey through time, “salvation is nearer to us now than when we first believed” and “the night is far gone, the day is at hand, “(Romans 13:11-12, RSV). We can’t be sure if we are “in the second or third watch” of that night, but the proper Christian stance in

This week’s readings are about discovering our true treasures. If your house was on fire and you could only take out three things (in addition to the people in your home!), what would they be and why? In the Gospel reading, Jesus says, “For where your treasure is, there also will your heart be.” What things in your life do you truly treasure; in other words, what do you spend most of your time, energy, and attention on? Do these things that you treasure-that you spend time and energy onreflect what is truly most important in life?

FAITH FORMATION NEWS NURSERY MINISTRY Our youngest parishioners need some cheerful, energetic, and loving adults to care for them during Mass! Could you serve approximately once/month from October through May? You will fall in love with these children and they will see our loving Lord Jesus through your actions.
