’ mostholytrinityministries.org. BE TRANSFORMED RENEW YOUR MINDS. LA MISIÓN DE JESÚS ES NUESTRA MISIÓN As Labor Day comes upon us we pack away our summer vacation clothes and begin to engage in regular school and parish activities. God’s Word invites us to “be transformed by the renewal of our minds to achieve spiritual worship.” Jeremiah encourages his students to be wholehearted in sharing the love of Jesus with their classmates: “Speak the Lord’s name for his love is like a fire burning in your heart.” RELIGIOUS ASSISTANCE TO POLAND AND POLONIA Last weekend, August 23rd and 24th the second collection supported the annual collection for Religious Assistance to the Church of Poland and Polonia. Thank you for your generous donations. St. Peter was preoccupied with the consequences of not getting along with the powers that be: the elders, chief priests, and the scribes. But like the bumper sticker says: Question Authority! Jesus on the other hand is listening to God the Father and shares his eternal loving voice and cooperates in letting the Father continue his creative work among us. The Sacraments are rehearsals for our souls to finally experience God’s work in our lives in this life and the next. The early church looked forward to God’s absolution at the moment of death because they appreciated the eternal action of God in their eternal destiny. Cuando Pedro le dice a Jesús que no hable de morir o de sufrir, está haciendo lo que tantas veces hacen las personas bien intencionadas. “Pare de sufrir”. Esto es afirmar una imposibilidad. En la vida humana siempre hay dolor inevitable. Decir pare de sufrir o tratar de consolar a alguien diciendo que todo va a ir bien, es afirmar que no hace falta sufrir ni morir, que podemos ser eternos y vivir sin dolor. Como la vida nos enseña, sin embargo, eso es imposible y una promesa así es engañosa, y a la larga más dañina que el aceptar la verdad desde el principio. Jesús se enoja con Pedro, porque lo que dice éste no es simplemente un comentario bien intencionado, sino un intentar negar la misión de Jesús. Parece que Pedro no ha entendido. PARISH DIRECTORY PASTOR Monsignor Russell E. Kohler CSA Minute Parishes will have the opportunity to learn how to begin a process of “intentional evangelization” at a twoday ChristLife™ Training Conference at Ss.
