Twenty-second Sunday in Ordinary Time
August 31, 2014
Be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may discern what
is the will of God, what is good and pleasing and perfect.
— Romans 12:2
TODAY’S READINGS
In the middle ages, a woman by the name of St. Catherine
of Siena challenged the Pope at the time, who was living in
southern France. He refused to go to Rome because it had
become too dangerous, gangs ruled the city. The Church
was suffering because the Pope was in France, under the
thumb of the King of France. St. Catherine wrote a letter to
the Pope. She told him to “be a man; go back to Rome.” In
other words, have guts, courage, to do what you know Jesus
wants you to do. Eventually the Pope did return to Rome.
This story is a great reminder to each one of us. To follow
Jesus and to be a part of his family requires courage and
good old fashioned guts. To stand for the Gospel and the
morality of Jesus is to stand against the current in today’s
society. No wimps or as a marine drill instructor would acidly
comment “no gutless wonders are allowed.”
To truly follow Jesus and live the Gospel is to take a road
that will be tough at times, and easy to just give up. But if we
persevere and “gut it out” then we will come to know Jesus
in a way that we can only imagine right now. I am amazed at
the number of people in the parish who probably wouldn’t
say they are courageous but are examples of toughness and
perseverance in faith that are inspirational!
To be courageous in faith means changing relationships, if
needed even ending some friendships if they lead us away
from Jesus. (A true friend helps us to be better people, not
worse!) It means having the guts to forgive others and ask
for forgiveness from those we hurt, and going to confession.
It means not having your own way all the time, but serving
others. It means not always being right, that others might
have been inspired by God to the truth you don’t know. It
means letting go of measuring yourself by how much you
make, or how many things you have, or what brand names
you wear, or even what you use your money for. How would
Jesus want you to spend your money? It means saying no to
actions and habits that contradict what the Church teaches.
It means being accountable to Jesus rather than to your own
comfort.
In the Gospel Jesus knew exactly what was to happen in
Jerusalem and it was going to be painful, and Peter didn’t
want him to be hurt. Yet in this case, as the exercise people
are fond of saying, “no pain, no gain.” (Which isn’t exactly
true!) We gained redemption and the gates of heaven were
opened to us. But we have to walk the path to those gates,
and that path can be rough at times. Fortunately Jesus
walks with us and lends His strength to us. “Have courage, I
have overcome the world!” (John 16:33) Let us have the
courage to follow him each day of our lives!
First Reading — The name of the Lord has become
like fire burning in Jeremiah’s heart (Jeremiah 20:
7-9).
Psalm — My soul is thirsting for you, O Lord my God
(Psalm 63).
Second Reading — Be transformed; renew your
mind; discern what is good (Romans 12:1-2).
Gospel — Those who lose their lives for Jesus’ sake
will find them (Matthew 16:21-27).
OFFICES CLOSED

Youth Ministry News
From Fr. Bill
“It was life-changing!”
I hear that phrase applied to a weekend or
conference which releases an emotional high and
fades within a day or two. Life changing? It seems
more like a fever or a flu bug.
Changing schools is life changing: new teachers,
different people and opportunities for a fresh start.
Making a team is life changing: practices, games and
competitions become a major black-hole of our days
challenging us to get homework and studies done
quickly and well… pushing family time, social time
and work time around like a bully running our life.
For those with family and friends off to college,
whether those we love are going to Sacramento
State, Chico State or the University of Idaho... there is
a tearing (my cheeks are stained) and tearing (my
heart is missing a piece). Things will be different as
they have graduated to a whole new world... which
won't all be magic carpet rides and may include lions
and tigers and hornets! Oh, my! This is life-changing.
The church believes that sacraments are meant to
be life-changing: Baptism, formally being brought into
God’s family along with the responsibilities and
commitment involved in being family; Eucharist,
personally committing to receive and strive to be His
Body; Reconciliation, asking for, receiving the grace I
need to be the person He is calling me to be;
Confirmation?
When I was confirmed it was emphasized that we
are soldiers for Christ. Adversity and persecution are
to be expected. Being His means that we know “the
world’ has a different agenda… of which “salvation” is
not a part. We challenge our young people to be the
church today. As the Body of Christ they share their
gifts to build up the church now. The gifts they have
been given they know they are called to use to uplift
others. We strive to make being church and praying
as church integral to their lives and relationships. In
essence… Life Changing.
Some parents tell me that we expect too much of
young people. “My child goes to Catholic School.
Why does she need to go to church to be confirmed?”
“She’s in cheer and needs the time for her studies.”
“Our weekends are too busy, why do you require
them to attend mass?” “You’re making us change…”
When something is important we do everything
possible to make it happen. Catholics know that being
confirmed is not just an excuse for a party and a
warm feeling that will pass. Being confirmed is meant
to be life-changing… both for the individual and those
they meet. FYI: Confirmation program registration
forms are available both online and the rectory... and
if you like waiting for the last minute, this is it.

WORDS OF WISDOM…
“Why spend money on what is not bread, and your labor on what does not satisfy?”
~ Isaiah 55:2

MISA DEL MEDIODIA, 12 P.M.
Noticias del Ministerio Hispano...
En la edad media, una mujer con el nombre de Santa Catalina de Siena desafió al Papa que vivía en el sur de Francia
en ese entonces. Él se negó a ir a Roma porque se había vuelto demasiado peligroso, las pandillas dominaban la ciudad.
La Iglesia estaba padeciendo porque el Papa estaba en Francia, bajo el yugo del rey de Francia. Santa Catalina escribió
una carta al Papa. Ella le dijo que "fuese hombre y regresara a Roma." En otras palabras, que tenga agallas, coraje, de
hacer lo que él sabía que Jesús quería que el hiciera. Eventualmente el Papa regresó a Roma.
Esta historia es un gran recordatorio a cada uno de nosotros. Para Seguir a Jesús y ser parte de su familia requiere
valentía. Para representar el Evangelio y la moral de Jesús es estar en contra de la corriente de la sociedad hoy en día.
Para seguir verdaderamente a Jesús y vivir el Evangelio es tomar un camino que va a ser difícil a veces, y es fácil
darse por vencido. Pero si perseveramos, entonces vamos a llegar a conocer a Jesús de una manera que sólo podemos
imaginar en este momento. Me asombra el número de personas en la parroquia que probablemente diría que no son
valientes, pero que son ejemplos de tenacidad y perseverancia en la fe y son fuente de inspiración!
Ser valientes en la fe significa cambiar relaciones, incluso si fuera necesario dejar algunas amistades si ellos nos
conducen lejos de Jesús. (Un amigo verdadero nos ayuda a ser mejores personas, no peor!) Significa tener el coraje de
perdonar a los demás y pedir perdón a los que lastimamos, y yendo a la confesión. Significa no exigir su manera todo el
tiempo, si no servir a los demás. Significa no siempre tener la razón, y que otros podrían haber sido inspirados por Dios a
una verdad que no conoces. Significa no medirse a si mismo por cuánto ganas, o la cantidad de cosas que tienes, o los
nombres de marca que te pones, o incluso como utilizas tu dinero. ¿Cómo querría Jesús que usted gaste su dinero?
Significa decir no a las acciones y hábitos que contradicen las enseñanzas de la Iglesia. Significa tener que rendir
cuentas a Jesús más que a su propia comodidad.
En el Evangelio Jesús sabía exactamente lo que iba a suceder en Jerusalén y que iba a ser doloroso. Pedro no quería
que fuera lastimado. Sin embargo, en este caso, como la gente suelen decir "sin dolor no hay ganancia." (Lo cual no es
exactamente cierto!) Ganamos la redención y las puertas del cielo se abrieron para nosotros. Pero tenemos que seguir el
camino de esas puertas, y ese camino puede ser difícil a veces. Afortunadamente Jesús camina con nosotros y da su
fuerza para nosotros. "Ten valor, yo he vencido al mundo" (Juan 16:33) Tengamos el coraje de seguirlo cada día de
nuestras vidas!
