Wayne County Pastoral Planning June 2018 Update Where are we with pastoral planning? The members of the Wayne County Planning Team continue to work on the formation of recommendations to address the areas requested by Bishop Matano. Please visit oprp.dor.org and click the “Active Pastoral Planning Groups” tab to follow all of the updates and information. Two areas of priority at this point continue to be: 1.) Continuing to discern the best scenario for clustering parishes to recommend to the Bishop, in light of the number of priests anticipated to be available. The team is focusing on two scenarios at this point: Configuration Scenario of 2 Pastors and 2 Parochial Vicars: Cluster SKD and SMK; Cluster CCBT, SJW, and SM Configuration Scenario of 3 Pastors and 1 Parochial Vicar: Cluster SMK and SKD; Cluster CCBT and SJW; Keep SM the same Maps of scenarios are available at each parish and online at oprp.dor.org. The team will continue to discern their recommendation. We are hoping to complete this part of our process by midJuly. 2.) Assessing parish ministries to find our strengths, challenges, and opportunities as we look to support the clusters with the necessary staff and volunteer leadership. Surveys are available as hard copies in each parish or by going online at oprp.dor.org under the “Active Pastoral Planning Groups” or by going to this website: www.surveymonkey.com/r/ WayneCountyParishes. The online survey will be open through the month of June. Please contact your pastor or Council representatives if you have any further feedback. Thank you so much for completing the survey! Parish Abbreviations: St. Maximilian Kolbe (SMK); Community of the Blessed Trinity (CCBT); St. Katharine Drexel (SKD); St. Michael (SM); St. Joseph the Worker (SJW)

THE RED CROSS NEEDS DONORS WEDNESDAY, JUNE 27TH IN THE CHURCH HALL. 1:30 PM-6:30 PM
Aprendiendo por medio de Parábolas Cuando estamos escuchando una homilia en la iglesia, es una ayuda cuando el predicador mete un cuento que capta la atencion de los oyentes y a la vez da la lección deseada. Jesús muchas veces usaba parábolas para enseñar. Las parábolas de Jesús fueron como la vida verdadera, representando situaciones y personas de la vida cotidiana. Las parábolas de Jesús nos dejan con preguntas mientras que intentamos comparar lo de la parábola con nuestra vida diaria. En los evangelios hay más de 35 parábolas. Jesús vivió en Palestina donde la gente vivía en las partes rurales por eso él usaba ejemplos de pastores, sembradores, pescadores, jornaleros, samaritanos… El usaba cosas sencillas en sus parabolas: monedas, semillas, piedras, ovejas, maleza, talentos, aceite… Al usar parábolas, Jesús estaba invitándonos a dejarnos estar confrontados por algo no esperado; situaciones comunes se cambian a caminos no tan comunes. ¿Cuál pastor va a dejar 99 ovejas para buscar una? Ninguno, salvo el buen pastor, porque al buscar una oveja perdida él está dejando las otras con la posibilidad que alguien o algun animal va a robarlas o herir o matarlas. ¡La locura de Dios, el Buen Pastor! También Jesús habló de la mujer que perdió una moneda de valor y rebuscaba la casa hasta encontrarla. ¿Es una persona de tanto valor que Dios la busca y la busca hasta que la persona se entrega a Dios? Dios piensa que sí. Los evangelistas cambian las parábolas según a quienes estaban contando la enseñanza de Jesús—un poco como nosotros cambiamos un cuento según los oyentes. No contamos un acontecimiento de la misma manera a unos adultos como a unos niños. A veces usamos los cuentos para enseñar y de una manera que los oyentes pueden entender. Así también Jesús estaba enseñando y cuando los fariseos estaban presentes, él estaba usando sus cuentos o parábolas de una manera distinta que cuando estaban los sencillos: los pastores o pescadores o agricultores. A veces los apóstoles de Jesús no entendían el significado de las parábolas y Jesús tenía que llevarlos a un lado para interpretarselas. A veces la interpretación era mas larga que la parábola. ¿Cómo sería una parábola moderna? ¿Se acuerda cuando Jesús habló del reino de los cielos es como un tesoro escondido en un campo? El hombre que lo descubre, lo vuelve a esconder; su alegría es tan grande que él vende todo lo que tiene y compra ese campo. Esa parábola habla de un tesoro en general pero escondido en el campo. Hoy en día puede ser que el tesoro sea un producto que una companía está inventando y alguien hipoteca su casa para invertir el dinero en el invento. Se riesga mucho en esa inversion para conseguir mucho dinero. ¿Y nosotros? Tiene el Reino de Dios tanto valor que estamos dispuestos a entregar nuestras vidas, nuestro amor, nuestro tiempo y vida para conseguilo? Hermana Kay

Family Ministry Names have special meanings. In our families, some people are named after parents or other relatives and ancestors. Sometimes peoples' names are symbolic, suggesting something unique about the person or recalling an event or experience related to that person's birth. In this Sunday's Gospel, we learn that Elizabeth gives her son the name John, which means “God has been gracious.” This name sets John apart in a special way: it was normally the father's responsibility to name a child, and the name was usually a family name. The unusual nature of John's naming suggests to everyone that this is a special child. Spend some time as a family focusing on one another's names as well as on the names of other relatives. Point out the significance of each name and how the naming took place. Read aloud Luke 1:57-66,80. Review the parts of the story that describe how John received his name. Talk about how important names are and how we are all called to honor the name of God. Pray together the Sign of the Cross, emphasizing how we honor God's name and promise to live our lives in God's name. Prayer for the end of the School Year At the end of this school year we give thanks to God: For all the teaching and learning that has taken place in our school, both in and out of the classroom, for the talents and gifts that have been shared and the challenges that have been faced; for the burdens that have been lifted and the hurts that have been healed; for the respect and care that has been given. We give thanks for the friendships that have just begun and for those that have grown. For the faith that has been lived in our daily struggles, for the hope that has lifted our hearts on the dark days and for the love that has kept us going. We give thanks for the community that we are. We ask you Lord to bless our families as we take our vacations, may our time together leave us with memories to cherish. Pour out your love on us that we may return renewed and refreshed to continue our journey together. We make this prayer through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Tiny fingers and toes. A little yawn. A loud cry. An infant wrapped in swaddling clothes. “What will this child be?” It is a question every parent asks time and time again. As first steps are taken, as personalities emerge, as a child shows interest in reading or drawing or climbing, the question is on our lips. “What will this child be?” This question is asked as John the Baptist is born. Will he be a priest like his father? Does his strange, unexpected name signal a departure from that inheritance? Could Elizabeth and Zechariah ever have predicted what would be? Under the tutelage of his priestly father, John “became strong in spirit.” As an adult, John would retreat into the desert to preach repentance. He would attract a large following and eventually attract the attention of the rulers of the day. He would point our the adulterous ways of King Herod and would find himself in prison. Eventually, he would be beheaded. But today, he is a child, an infant newly born. On this special feast, we’re reminded on the great humility required of parents. The character formation, the discipline and encouragement, the violin lessons and soccer practices. Every parental effort is subjected to the decisions of the child themselves. Even children on a sure track by high school graduation transform under life’s circumstances. Entrusting our children to God can be incredibly intimidating. “What will this child be,” especially when the transformation lies outside of my control? John the Baptist’s story might not have ended as his parents imagined. But he is celebrated as the greatest of the prophets, as the one who prepared the way for the Messiah. Here is the hope of all Christian parents— that our children would be raised in such a way that when people meet them, they meet Jesus Christ.
