Sept. 15th
Town Hall Meeting:
PERPETUAL ADORATION
Crying Room Conversation to Eucharistic
Chapel
Come Let Us Adore Him
Join us for a Town Hall meeting with our Pastor, Father Bill, on
Tuesday, Sept. 15th in Cavanagh Hall, at 7:30pm to 8:30pm to
discuss and share on ideas for a permanent Perpetual Adoration
Chapel. All views and opinions are welcome.
One of the most beautiful, powerful, exciting, and awesome
aspects of our Catholic-Christian faith is our cherished believe
in the EUCHARIST, that it is truly the Body & Blood of Our
Lord Jesus Christ. An ancient tradition is to be in the presence
of the EUCHARIST, that is to be in the real presence of Our
Lord, to adore Him in a spirit of thanksgiving and love.
We are thankful to God for all that He has given us, and in that
thankfulness we may also express our prayers and petitions for
special needs within our family, friends, nation and world. A
Perpetual Adoration Chapel is available for prayer 24 hours a
day – every day of the year!
Adoration is also a profound prayer of love. We adore the
Lord. We look at the host displayed in a monstrance for viewing, and we adore, we love and we feel His love for us. We are
thankful for God’s unconditional love for us and thus we cannot
help but to adore Him.
We have a perfect place for a PERPETUAL ADORATION
chapel. Some remodeling and special preparation of the outside
entrance must be done first. The proposal is to convert the current crying room into this chapel. The outside entrance would
be reconfigured to include a ramp and a door with a touch-pad
combination lock (given to any registered parishioner). This
entrance would be along the rose garden, under the chapel’s
stain glass windows.
Part of the remodeling would include a wall and secondary door
to provide a passage way to the sanctuary; seating would have
to be turned to face the west wall (away from the altar) so that
people would be able to enter without walking in front of the
Blessed Sacrament in the monstrance (the Tabernacle would
not be moved as a monstrance will be used). A special grill
would protect the monstrance and Blessed Sacrament within.
Get on the Bus
Our funds are running low so we are in need of your
financial support. We also are in
need of board games (such as
Sorry, Monopoly, etc.,) so when
the children visit their parent, they
have something to play.
For any questions please contact

Readings for the Week...
TODAY’S READINGS
First Reading — Forsake foolishness that you may live;
advance in the way of understanding (Proverbs 9:1-6).
Psalm — Taste and see the goodness of the Lord
(Psalm 34).
Second Reading — Live as wise persons trying to understand what is the will of the Lord, filled with the Spirit
and giving thanks always (Ephesians 5:15-20).
Gospel — Jesus says, “I am the living bread . . . whoever
eats this bread (my flesh) will live forever”
(John 6:51-58).
The English translation of the Psalm Responses from the Lectionary for Mass © 1969, 1981, 1997, International Commission on English in the Liturgy Corporation. All rights reserved.
AT THE TABLE
In today’s first reading, Wisdom is imagined as a
woman rich in poise and grace. She moves smoothly and
confidently about her temple like home. She doesn’t
flutter about, nervous with worry. Wisdom sends her
maidens to invite all to her open house. The guests do not
possess any particular genius or insight. They need only
be a people of good will and common sense. They are
summoned to leave behind foolishness and to find for
themselves a place at Wisdom’s table. There they may
and can eat and drink deeply.
Today’s Gospel draws us back to the table of the
Eucharist. Jesus addresses those who seek to understand
his words and, sadly, those who seek to avoid them. As
people born of God, we are called and equipped to seek
God’s will and act on it.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
If the alb is the premier baptismal garment, then why
are there so many other styles of vesture in evidence in
our parishes? In some places, altar servers and other
ministers might wear a garment, usually black, called a
cassock. Over that is normally worn a white garment (a
“surplice”), reminiscent of the alb but much shorter, often
of starched linen and trimmed with lace. The cassock is
not a liturgical garment, but a clerical robe. Its origins lie
in the religious habit of monks. By the late Middle Ages,
diocesan priests and clerics increasingly were encouraged
to emulate religious priests. Very small boys were often
apprenticed to monasteries, especially for music
education, and would be invested with a cassock and
sometimes even inducted into the ranks of clerics.
For centuries before the Reformation, it was required
that all men entering higher education be clerics, and so
the cassock and its variations became familiar academic
garb. At the Reformation, many ministers retained a form
of the cassock as ordinary dress, rejecting liturgical
garments. In the seventeenth century, the English Civil
War was in part provoked by the Archbishop of
Canterbury’s insistence that ministers wear surplices.
Although the Episcopal Church now retains “cassock and
surplice” as the normal dress for lay men and women
assisting at liturgy, Catholics are increasingly attentive to
the deeply traditional treasure of the alb, our baptismal
robe, when special liturgical vesture is needed.

LOVE THEM BOTH
We must love them both—those whose
opinions we share and those whose
opinions we reject. For both have labored
in the search for truth, and both have
helped us in the finding of it.
—Thomas Aquinas
DID YOU KNOW?
Keep the lines of communication open
with children
Your relationship with your child will go
through several stages, but one thing to
keep as a priority is the importance of
honest, open communication—both from
your kids, and from you. Your children
should always know that they can come
talk to you about anything, no matter how
serious, and that you will make time to
listen and respond. Without
communication, parents don’t know
important things about their kids’ lives
who they talk to, where they go, who their
friends are. These parents are far more
likely to miss danger signs about potential
bad influences or predators as well.
For more information on how to foster
communication with your child and for a

Child Rescue Network” email:

LECTURAS DE HOY
Primera lectura — La sabiduría nos dice: Dejen su
ignorancia y vivirán; avancen por el camino de la
prudencia (Proverbios 9:1-6).
Salmo — Haz la prueba y verás qué bueno es el Señor
(Salmo 34 [33]).
Segunda lectura — Vivan como personas de sabiduría
tratando de entender qué es la voluntad del Señor, llenos
del Espíritu y dando gracias siempre (Efesios 5:15-20).
Evangelio — Jesús dice, “Yo soy el pan vivo que ha
bajado del cielo; el que coma de este pan vivirá para
siempre” (Juan 6:51-58).
A LA MESA
En la primera lectura de hoy, la sabiduría se presenta
como una mujer rica en aplomo y gracia. Se mueve
fácilmente y con confianza en torno a su templo-hogar.
No anda mariposeando, nerviosa y preocupada. La
sabiduría envía a sus doncellas a invitar a todos a su casa.
Los invitados no tienen que tener ningún talento o
conocimiento en particular. Tan sólo necesitan ser
personas de buena voluntad y sentido común. Se les
llama a dejar atrás las tonterías y buscar para sí mismos
un lugar a la mesa de la sabiduría. Ahí pueden comer y
beber a fondo.
El Evangelio de hoy nos lleva de nuevo a la mesa de
la Eucaristía. Jesús les habla a aquellos que buscan
entender sus palabras, y, tristemente, a aquellos que
tratan de evadirlas. Como pueblo nacido de Dios,
estamos llamados y preparados para buscar la voluntad
de Dios y ponerla en práctica.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
Según la creencia de los aztecas, toltecas y otros
indígenas, los niños y las niñas nacen sin rostro y
corazón. Corresponde a la familia formar en ellos y ellas
el rostro (la personalidad), y el corazón (ánimo/
motivación) durante los primeros siete años de su vida.
Rostro y corazón son una combinación para hablar de
un tercer aspecto. En este caso rostro y corazón indican la
persona bien formada. Los judíos de la época de Jesús
también usaban ciertas palabras para indicar otras
realidades. Cuerpo y sangre, por ejemplo, indican a la
persona en su totalidad. El cuerpo muestra el carácter de
la persona, mientras que la sangre indica su ánimo o
motivación.
Cuando Jesús nos invita a comer su Cuerpo y beber
su Sangre nos está invitando a tomar su rostro y corazón.
Nuestra personalidad debe ser como la suya y nuestra
motivación también. De esta manera entramos en íntima
comunión con él, a quien comulgamos. En nuestro
interior vamos aprendiendo a pensar y amar como él,
mientras que exteriormente vamos aprendiendo a
comportarnos como él.

¿SABÍA USTED?
Mantenga abiertas las líneas de comunicación con
los niños
La relación con su hijo pasará por varias etapas, pero
lo que debería ser una prioridad es la comunicación
abierta y honesta – tanto para los padres como para
los hijos. Sus hijos siempre deben saber que pueden
venir a hablar con usted sobre cualquier cosa, no
importa qué tan grave, y saber que está disponible
para escuchar y responder. Sin la comunicación los
padres no van a saber cosas importantes acerca de la
vida de sus hijos – incluso con quien hablan, donde
van y quiénes son sus amigos. Los padres que
comunican con sus hijos son más probables a
identificar señales de las influencias negativas y el
abuso.
