Thirty-Third Sunday in Ordinary Time
Welcome! We are glad you are here to join us in worship in the celebra on of the Eucharist (Mass). At the Eucharist, the Church comes together to hear the Word of the Lord, to pray for the world's needs, to offer the sacrifice of the Cross in praise and thanks to God, to receive
Christ Jesus in communion, and then to be sent forth in the Spirit as disciples of the Gospel. If you are not familiar with the Mass, the Order of the Mass can be found on pages 3-29 of the Breaking Bread hymnal. We call par cular a en on to the text of the Gloria and the Nicene Creed located on the inside cover. The scripture (Bible) readings for today's Mass can be found on pages 227.

33rd Sunday in Ordinary Time
A high school service project at the local soup kitchen included driving through the neighborhood and offering food and drink to the homeless. One man was very grateful for a bo le of water and he told his young benefactor that the water saved his life. He was not kidding. The heat had taken its toll on everyone and he had not had any water for at least a day.
It was a valuable lesson. We take water so much for granted that we easily overlook its power to cleanse, heal, and renew life. It is more than a luxury; it is essen al for life. Without it, we get sick, we suffer, and we die. Without water, we cannot be clean and we cannot be refreshed. No wonder it is such a powerful symbol of God’s grace.
God’s grace cleanses, heals and renews us. We carry that grace to one another. Like the student who offers the homeless man a bo le of water, we share grace with each other. Every day we have the opportunity to be renewed by the love of family and friends and to offer the same gi . Kindness, generosity, pa ence and understanding heal, renew and refresh us. These are the virtues that make family life possible and make it all that it can be.
