LISTEN TO JESUS AND THE PROPHETS

Prophets have always had a tough row to hoe. Their words, often

unwelcome, are used against them to persecute and even kill them. Such was the fate of the Old Testament prophets, and Jeremiah is a great example of this. Jesus endured opposition from sinners, and did not turn back from a shameful death in order to rise to a glorious new life. The ultimate prophet, Jesus sought to warn the people of his time and ours of the divisions that his words would cause, showing himself to be the prophet of all time. We all need to look at our divisions and dilemmas in light of Jesus’ teachings and warnings, and seek to understand all that he has proclaimed and taught about what will happen if we fail to listen.

ESCUCHA A JESÚS Y A LOS PROFETAS Los profetas siempre han tenido un hueso muy duro que roer. Sus palabras, a menudo poco deseadas ser escuchadas, se usan en contra de ellos para perseguir-los y aún para matarlos. Ese fue el destino de muchos profetas del Antiguo Testamento, y Jeremías es uno de esos grandes ejemplos. Jesús trato con pecadores y aceptó su muerte y luego resucitó a una vida gloriosa. El último profeta, Jesús buscó prevenir a las personas de su tiempo y del nuestro de las divisiones que sus palabras causarían, mostrándose él mismo ser el profeta de todo el tiempo. Todos necesitamos ver a nuestras divisiones y dilemas a la luz de las enseñanzas y advertencias, y buscar comprender todo lo que él proclamó y enseñó de las cosas que pasarían si no lo escuchamos.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE El otro día leí un artículo escrito por un pastor bautista sobre la necesidad de tener un altar en casa para educar a nuestros hijos en la fe y la oración. Lo leí con interés ya que el uso del altarcito tiene una larga historia en la Iglesia católica. En casa de mis abuelos paternos, en México, había un bello altarcito en forma de pirámide que contenía flores, velas y figuras de Jesús, María y algunos santos. Además de esto estaban también algunos instrumentos de oración como el rosario, la Biblia y algún otro libro de oración. También en casa de mi abuela materna, en Texas, había un rinconcito sagrado. Muchos latinos tenemos altarcitos familiares. Algunos son verdaderos altares como el de mi abuela, mamá Lilia. Otros son rincones especiales como el de mamá María, con alguna imagen y libro de oración y fotografías de nuestros parientes. A fin de cuentas no importa ni su tamaño ni su forma. Importa su existencia y sobre todo su uso para recordarnos de la presencia e importancia de Dios en nuestros hogares y familias.—Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS

All,

When a new person comes into our lives, God often has a purpose. Sometimes it is for us to help them, or sometimes they help us. Sometimes it is because they will teach us something. I suppose sometimes it may be for all of these reasons, or another that is hidden from us. I don’t have to understand God’s purposes, so that makes it easy; I don’t need to figure it out. Accepting the people that God puts into my life and accepting that they are there for God’s purpose is enough for me. Let the Holy Spirit lead you and enjoy the ride.

Sincerely,

Keith Flaherty, Grand Knight, Monsignor Hayes Council

MISSION CATHOLIC APPEAL The Missionary Cooperative Appeal is an annual program in which missionaries from around the world

speak at each parish. The goal of this appeal is to increase awareness of missionary work and to raise funds to help missionary organizations continue their evangelization efforts. In the Diocese of Sacramento, 50 different missions were selected this year to each speak at two parishes. Last year through generous denotations, we collected $420,110 for 50 missions. This weekend, our parish will be visited by Father Emmanuel Omunyokoi with the Archdiocese of Tororo, Uganda. He will share with us their courageous evangelization efforts on behalf of the Catholic Church and give us an opportunity to support their work in the field. A second collection will be taken up following their presentation. Special envelopes will be provided for your convenience. Donations made by check should be made payable to the parish. All funds collected throughout the Diocese will be equally divided among the 50 missionary organizations visiting the Diocese of Sacramento this year. Thank you in advance for your generosity.

WEEKLY COLLECTION FOR AUGUST 4, 2019

Saint Patrick Church $ 13,631.54 Improvement Fund $ 6,135.61

Saint James Church $ 721.00 Improvement Fund $ 408.00

Remembering Saint Patrick Church and Saint James Church in your will is a beautiful testimony of your belief in our mission and of what you cherish. Please consider leaving a charitable bequest to the Church.

A Faith-centered support group is right for you if any

of these are true:

You are looking for companions in faith to share your journey of sorrow. You’ve been trying to figure out the meaning of your grief. You want to get on with life, but haven’t been able to. You seek comfort in the teachings of Christ. You are open to new ways of coping with your grief. You don’t want to feel alone anymore.

APELACIÓN DE COOPERACIÓN PARA LAS MISIONES La Apelación de Cooperación para las Misiones es un programa anual en el cual misioneros de todo el

mundo hablan en cada parroquia. El objetivo de esta apelación es para aumentar el conocimiento del trabajo de misioneros y para recaudar fondos para ayudar a las organizaciones misioneras en su esfuerzo de evangelización. En la Diócesis de Sacramento, 50 diferentes misiones fueron seleccionadas este año para que cada una hable en dos parroquias. El año pasado atreves de donaciones generosas, recolectamos $420,110 para 50 misiones. Este fin de semana, nuestra parroquia será visitada por el padre Emmanuel Omunyokoi con la Archdiocese de Tororo, Uganda. Él compartirá con nosotros sus esfuerzos de evangelizar en nombre de la Iglesia Católica y nos dará la oportunidad de dar apoyo a su trabajo en el campo. Habrá una segunda colecta después de su presentación. Se proporcionarán sobres especiales para su convenien-cia. Donaciones hechas por medio de cheque deben hacerse a nombre de la parroquia. Todos los fondos recaudados en la Diócesis se dividirán igualmente entre las 50 organizaciones misioneras que visitan la Diócesis de Sacramento este año. Gracias de antemano por su generosidad.

SAVE THE DATE The Saint James Western BBQ fundraiser is scheduled for September 28th. Make sure to mark your

calendars. Delicious food, great music and fellowship are all on the menu. Don’t miss out on this event hosted by the Saint James Parish.
