Twentieth Sunday in Ordinary Time August 18, 2019
Welcome! You enter this Church not as a stranger, but as a guest
of God. As a baptized person, you enter it as a son or daughter of
the Father in Christ. This House of God, therefore, is your family
home. Come in then with humility of mind, joy of heart, and thanks
in your soul. Acknowledge the Lord’s presence in the Tabernacle and
adore Him. Come in and pause in prayer in the midst of your busy
life and its many concerns. Be grateful to those who, for the glory
of God and in honor of St. Edward, built our place of worship and
our school with faith and sacrifice, and sanctified it with their
songs and prayers. Anyone who wishes to practice the Catholic faith
by attending this parish may consider St. Edward church their
parish home, no matter where one lives in the area. You simply need
to register.
LISTEN TO JESUS AND
THE PROPHETS Prophets have always had a tough row to hoe. Their
words, often unwelcome, are used against them to persecute and even
kill them. Such was the fate of the Old Testament prophets, and
Jeremiah is a great example of this. Jesus endured opposition from
sinners, and did not turn back from a shameful death in order to
rise to a glorious new life. The ultimate prophet, Jesus sought to
warn the people of his time and ours of the divisions that his
words would cause, showing himself to be the prophet of all time.
We all need to look at our divisions and dilemmas in light of
Jesus’ teachings and warnings, and seek to understand all that he
has proclaimed and taught about what will happen if we fail to
listen. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
