SON OF MARY: SCOTT HAHN REFLECTS ON THE FOURTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME

As we’ve walked with the apostles in the Gospels in recent weeks, we’ve witnessed Jesus command the wind and sea, and order a little girl to arise from the dead. But He seems to meet His match in His hometown of Nazareth. Today’s Gospel is blunt: “He was not able to perform any mighty deed there.”

Why not? Because of the people’s lack of faith. They acknowledged the wisdom of His words, the power of His works. But they refused to recognize Him as a prophet come among them, a messenger sent by God.

All they could see was how much “this man” was like them – a carpenter, the son of their neighbor, Mary, with brothers and sisters.

Of course, Mary was ever-virgin, and had no other children. The Gospel refers to Jesus’ brothers as Paul refers to all Israelites as his brothers, the children of Abraham (see Romans 9:3,7).

That’s the point in today’s Gospel, too. Like the prophet Ezekiel in today’s First Reading, Jesus was sent by God to the rebellious house of Israel, where He found His own brothers and sisters obstinate of heart and in revolt against God.

The servant is not above the Master (see Matthew 10:24).

As His disciples, we too face the mockery and contempt we hear of in today’s Psalm. And isn’t it often hardest to live our faith among those in our own families, those who think they really know us, who define us by the people we used to be – before we chose to walk with Jesus?

As Paul confides in today’s Epistle, insults and hardships are God’s way of teaching us to rely solely on His grace.

Jesus will work no mighty deeds in our lives unless we abandon ourselves to Him in faith. Blessed then are those who take no offense in Him (see Luke 7:23). Instead, we must look upon Him with the eyes of servants – knowing that the son of Mary is also the Lord enthroned in the heavens.

TO THE PARENTS OF YOUNG CHILDREN Relax! God gave your children the wiggles. He welcomes them in his house. If you must leave with your child during Mass, please come back! We want both of you as part of our Church-family. Encourage your child to sing, pray, and join the spoken responses.

TO OUR PARISHIONERS Remember, the way we welcome children in Church directly affects the way they respond to the Church, to God, to Christ and to one another. The presence of children is a gift to the Church, and they are a reminder that our Parish is growing.

SACRED RELICS OF THE SAINTS: TREASURES OF THE CHURCHBlessed Sacrament Church presents a teaching and exposition of Sacred Relics on Friday, July 12 at 7pm. Father Carlos Martins of the Companions of the Cross will be here with a very special Vatican collection of over 150 relics, some as old as 2000 years. Among the treasures will be relics of St. Maria Goretti, St. Therese of Lisieux (the “Little Flower”), St. Francis of Assisi, St. Anthony of Padua, St. Thomas Aquinas, and St. Faustina Kowalska. In addition, there will also be present a portion of the veil of Our Lady, as well as one of the largest remaining pieces of the True Cross in the world. Those in attendance will be able to examine and venerate each relic. In the church’s history many miracles and healings have been worked in the presence of relics, and many have been healed through this ministry. Please do not miss this opportunity. You are encouraged to bring your articles of devotion (such as rosaries, holy cards, etc.) and pictures of ill friends/family members which you will be able to touch to the reliquaries as a means of intercession.

SOCIAL JUSTICE COMMISSION The self-giving aspect of breast feeding is just one of the ways motherhood is heroic. The Church has consistently supported breastfeeding and recognized its natural place in Christian motherhood. Even Pope Francis has chimed in, telling a journalist about a

young mother and infant who had come to a recent general audience: “She was shy and didn’t want to breast-feed in public, while the pope was passing,” Francis recalled. “I wish to say the same to humanity: give people something to eat! That woman had milk to give to her child; we have enough food in the world to feed everyone.” How does your workplace or church support mothers in this most essential act of motherhood? foryourmarriage.org/blogs/breastfeeding-catholic-motherhood

NATURAL FAMILY PLANNING GOOD FOR YOUR BODY, GREAT FOR YOUR SOUL Natural Family Planning (NFP) is an umbrella term for methods used to achieve/avoid pregnancies based on the naturally occurring signs and symptoms of the fertile and infertile phases of a woman’s menstrual cycle. It is completely natural, with no hormone disrupting medication or implanted devices and cooperates with a woman’s cycle, rather than disrupting it. NFP reflects the dignity of the human person within the context of marriage and family life, promotes openness to life, and recognizes the value of the child. By respecting the love-giving and life-giving natures of marriage, NFP can enrich the bond between husband and wife.Attending a Natural Family Planning Seminar is a requirement for all couples planning to marry in the Catholic Diocese of Rapid City. The seminar is also an enriching experience for married couples and anyone wanting to know more about Natural Family Planning and the Church’s teachings. Below is the schedule of the seminars along with a registration form.Registration is required two weeks prior to your scheduled seminar, although early registration is appreciated. Registration forms are available at the link below. Seminars are from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon (local time) — please plan to arrive by 8:45 a.m. to check in.
