GOD’S WORK
We are so busy! Most of us have more than one job to do, and we never seem to have enough time. We are workers, volunteers, parents, friends, and most of us
are more than one thing at a time. But which of these is the work of God? We seldom view our ordinary work as being the work of God. We may think that we have to be ministers or priests, missionaries or charity workers, engaged full-time in works formally identified as being “God’s work.” But everything we do with a faithful heart and with
love for others is God’s work. We each have our own role to fill in the world, and many gifts are necessary. We cannot always see the direct connection of our daily work to the plan of God. But we trust and we believe that God leads us to do what is needed, where it is needed. What is “God’s work?” “This is the work of God, that you believe in the one he sent” (John 6:29).
EL TRABAJO QUE DIOS QUIERE
¡Estamos tan ocupados! Muchos de nosotros tenemos más de un trabajo y parecería que nunca tenemos suficiente tiempo. Somos trabajadores, voluntarios, padres, amigos y la mayoría es más de una cosa a la vez. Pero, ¿cuál de estos es el trabajo que Dios quiere? Rara vez vemos nuestro trabajo común como el trabajo que Dios quiere. Quizás pensamos que debemos ser ministros o sacerdotes, misioneros o benefactores, que debemos realizar trabajos de tiempo completo que se consideran como “las obras de Dios”. Pero todo lo que hacemos con un corazón fiel y con amor por el prójimo es una obra de Dios. Cada uno tiene un papel que cumplir en el mundo y muchos dones son necesarios. No siempre podemos ver la relación directa que existe entre nuestro trabajo diario y los designios de Dios. Pero confiamos y tenemos fe en que Dios nos guía a hacer lo que es necesario, cuando es necesario. ¿Cuál es “la obra de Dios?” “La obra de Dios consiste en que crean en aquél a quien él ha enviado” (Juan 6:29).
LA MISA EN ESPANOL
Únete a nosotros para de celebrar la misa en espanol a las 2:30 pm. Esto es una gran bendicion para nuestra Iglecia de compartir esta bella cultura con nuestros hermanos y hermanas.

YOUNG PEOPLE’S BEGINNING EXPERIENCE
The loss of a parent through death, or a changed paren-tal relationship through divorce or separation can be a traumatic experience for young people. The Young People’s Beginning Experience program provides a safe, secure environment where teens ages 13-18 can sort out with other teens their feelings of loss and pain while strengthening their self-esteem and self-acceptance. An upcoming Young People’s Beginning Experience weekend is scheduled for August 7-9 at Gilmary Retreat Center in Moon Twp. For more information: www.BeginningExperience.org or make a confidential call to Carol 412-295-7026 or Steve 412-720-8694.
