FIFTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
We hear today in the first reading from the prophet Isaiah that
just as rain and snow come down and do
not return to the heavens until they water the earth so too the
word of God comes forth from God’s mouth and does not return until
it is accomplishes the will of God.
In Matthew, Jesus tells the disciples: “Blessed are your eyes,
because they see, and your ears because they hear.” We have in this
proclamation the acknowledgment of the Word spoken by God — Jesus
himself. The Word uttered from God’s mouth lived, forgave, taught,
hoped, suffered, died and rose; this Word completely — and for all
time — accomplished the will of God. Do we see and hear? Are we
blessed?
The word is paradoxically still accomplishing the will of God
through the power of the Spirit in each of our lives. For me there
is a resonance between this message and my life. I am a word spoken
into being by God. We are the words that have come forth from the
mouth of God in this day and age. We are the words that will not
return to God until we achieve the end for which God sent us.
What is the word of God that you need to speak by your life
fully lived? Is it a word of kindness and compassion? Is it a word
of redress and challenge? Is it a word of forgiveness and healing?
Is it a word of guidance? Sustenance? Nurture? Liberation? Is it
the word of love?
We are a word spoken by God. Who we become in this life gives
voice to that word. For those who have eyes to see and those who
have ears to hear ... what word will they hear in their hearts
because of our life well-lived in resonance with the Gospel
message? How will we each be a sacra praedicatio in this world, in
our workplace, in our neighborhood and in our families? How will we
as words spoken by God, accomplish the will of God through the
action of the Word in, with and through us so that we, too, might
water a parched creation? Carolyn A. Wright/Celebration
A VISIT FROM A MARYKNOLL MISSIONER
Fr. Clyde Philips, M.M. will be with us this weekend, July 15
and 16, to promote the work of
the Maryknoll Fathers and Brothers. He was ordained a Maryknoll
priest in 1978. Fr. Phillips was
assigned to the Philippine Region where he served for 20 years.
Since 1999, he has been serving the
Society in Mission Promotion.
Maryknoll’s mission is to witness God’s Word among the peoples
and cultures of foreign
lands. Maryknollers share the Gospel, not in words alone, but in
practical and concrete actions:
by feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, giving shelter to the
homeless, comforting the oppressed.
Maryknoll depends entirely upon the interest, prayers and
support of its friends. There will be a
second collection after communion to help support the work of
Maryknoll.
During his parish visit, Fr. Philips will be happy to talk with
any person who is interested in
learning more about mission life or perhaps becoming an
overseas
missioner.

We would like to thank our 6 teen helpers and 7 adult

donated camping gear for the set!
We would also like to thank the Knights of Columbus for their
generous donation to our
program that covered craft supplies and snack foods for all the
children as well as two
scholarships for tuition to vacation bible school for families
in need.
THANK YOU VOLUNTEERS!
We had two groups of children who had quite a fun
Wilderness Adventure through the Sacraments
which included many songs, games, crafts, stories,
and prayers.
