PANCAKE BREAKFAST - The next pancake breakfast has tenta-tively been set (depending upon status of Parish Centre) for Sunday, September 24th following the 8:30 am and 10:30 am Masses.
SEPTEMBER 10, 2017 - YEAR A
23rd SUNDAY OF ORDINARY TIME
Reflection: “If He or She Listens to You,
You Have Regained Your Brother or Sister”
23RD SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME - Jesus teaches his disciples how to settle disputes in the Church.
Today’s Gospel reading is taken from a chapter of Matthew’s Gospel, which is sometimes called the “discourse on the Church” or the “church order” discourse. In this part of Matthew’s Gospel, Jesus speaks more directly about matters of Church discipline and order. In today’s reading we find one of only three instances in which Jesus uses the word church in Matthew’s Gospel.
Jesus does not discourage disagreement within the community of the Church; he acknowledges the reality of conflict and error and offers his disciples a means for addressing such matters. It is in the conclusion to this teaching that the message of hope is found: Jesus is present with the community and will guide the community in its relations. If decisions are taken in prayer, then the community can be assured of God’s assistance.

Living Out Laudato Si’: A Commentary and Practical Resource for Canadian Catholics - On the occasion of the third World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation, the Episcopal Commission for Justice and Peace of the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops (CCCB) has published a new resource entitled Living Out Laudato Si': A Commentary and Practical Resource for Canadian Catholics. The preface of the docu-ment, written by the Honourable Graydon Nicholas, CM ONB, former Lieutenant Governor of New Brunswick, from the Tobique First Nation, states that this new resource not only presents Catholic Social Teaching but "also raises many of the environmental difficulties facing Canadians today and challenges us to discuss them frankly." The World day of Prayer for the Care of creation, celebrated on 1 September, was instituted in 2015 by Pope Francis. To download or read the document, please see www.rcdk.org.
