~ REFLECTION ~ Today we have gathered to pray, as we do every Sunday, at the invitation of the Lord our God. It is necessary for us to do this, for without it we cannot reinforce who we are and whose we are. Jesus us tells us today that our continual prayer does indeed make a difference, and that it is the one way to make sure that there will still be faith on earth when he returns. So let us pray, today and always, and pray, and pray. ~ REFLEXION ~ Hoy nos hemos reunido a orar por invitación del Señor nuestro Dios, tal como hacemos cada domingo. Es necesario que hagamos esto, pues sino no podríamos reforzar quiénes somos y de quién somos. Jesús nos dice hoy que nuestra oración constante indudablemente pondrá una diferencia y que ésa es la única manera de que aún habrá fe sobre la tierra cuando él regrese. Por eso, oremos hoy y siempre; oremos y sigamos orando.

SABIA USTED?.

Evite “reparar” y trate de escuchar y entender En ocasiones los adultos pudieran tener una tendencia a tratar de reparar problemas que puedan surgir con sus hijos. Aunque el instinto para ayudar y la preocupación amorosa detrás de esta actitud es comprensible, no es siempre el mejor curso de acción a tomar si el niño o la niña no está aprendiendo algo sobre cómo manejar un problema, al menos en parte por ellos mismos. Para algunos problemas, los niños sólo necesitan un buen escucha; otros necesitan guía y ayuda para discernir cómo responder mejor. Trate de hacer preguntas, anímelos a encontrar soluciones, y rece con y por el niño o la niña.

TEN REASONS FOR GOING TO MASS 4.

WHY GO TO MASS? BECAUSE IT’S WORTH THE COST.

Growing to maturity means a growing willingness to "accept what I don't like for the sake of what I love." Applied to going to Mass, this principle means that I will put up with:  crying babies  incomprehensible sermons  ill-practiced choirs  money talk  people talking, in church, after Mass, while I'm trying to say my Rosary  Factions (St. Paul knew all about that: see 1 Corinthians 3:3 and 11:17) That's life. Similar aggravations occur in our own family, unless I'm singularly lucky. Families have:  squabbles  silent treatment  spilt milk  drunkenness  Selfishness  Fights over silly things like TV That's the human condition. Yet most of us go home every night. We pout and grumble, but when the crisis comes, we draw together like, well, like a family. So Christian maturity means realizing that any group, including my parish community, will have its white, black and gray sheep. I will have an endless search if I keep going from church to church, or group to group, or family to family, expecting some day to find the perfect one. The 12 apostles had one defector, and not all the rest were saints-ofthe-month either. I always go home because I belong there. I go to Mass because I belong there; I am a member of the Body of Christ. Even if I'm only a finger, or an eye, the Body needs what I can contribute: presence, prayer, loyalty, perseverance, humor, encouragement, kindness, for short — myself.

CHILD PROTECTION COURSE: PLEASE

NOTE THAT ALL MINISTRY MEMBERS MUST COMPLETE THE CHILD TECTION CERTIFICATION COURSE TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY ACTIVITIES INVOLVING THE YOUTH OF THE PARISH.

PRO-

Sometimes adults may have a tendency to try and fix problems that come up with their children. While the instinct to help and the loving concern behind it is understandable, it is not always the best course of action if the child is not learning something about how to handle a problem at least partly on their own. For some problems, children just need a good listener; for others they need guidance and help discerning how best to respond. Try asking questions, encouraging solutions, and praying with and for the child.
