We, the parish of Saints Mary and Mathias Catholic Church, WELCOME all to CELEBRATE, TEACH and LIVE the Mission of JESUS CHRIST
Ss. Mary & Mathias Church 215 W. 8th St. Muscatine, IA 52761
March 15, 2020 From the Pastors Desk We have heard, many times, this weekend’s Scripture recounting Jesus’ encounter with the Samaritan woman at the well. Here, something quite extraordinary is happening. Jesus asks the Samaritan woman for a drink of water. In doing so, the Lord is inviting her to an act of
generosity. This simple invitation not only awakens her gen-erosity but, in the end, brings her to a life changing encounter with Christ.
This weekend, as we continue our Stewardship Renewal, we are focusing on the importance of offering God our sacrificial gift of financial treasure. As the Lord sought to draw from the Samaritan woman her generous response to his invitation for a drink of water, so the Lord also desires our generous re-sponse to His invitation to be good and faithful stewards of the resources He has given to us.
Whether we are quite well off financially or we are barely making it month to month, there is one thing in common. God desires that we offer Him the first fruits of our financial treasure. In fact, tithing or offering our weekly/monthly sac-rificial gift of treasure is an act of worship. At each Mass, as the collection is taken up, we offer our sacrificial gift of treas-ure as the gifts of bread and wine are brought to the altar to be transformed into the perfect offering of Christ’s Body and Blood. Jesus offered Himself completely and totally as He stretched out His arms and died for us on the Cross. The offering of our sacrificial gift of treasure and the offering of our lives are united, in worship, to the perfect sacrificial offer-ing of Jesus Christ, which we participate in at each Eucharist.
The offering of our financial gift of treasure is an act of wor-ship in which we trust God with our finances. The offering or tithing of our treasure is also a sacrificial gift. We see in the Scriptures the story of the widow’s mite, one who gave her entire livelihood. When I have been asked to give at a level that I felt was a bit outside my comfort zone, I have been amazed at how much I have received in return. The blessings and graces that come our way when we give sacrificially are numerous.
This weekend, I encourage each of us to prayerfully consider the amount of our financial treasure we tithe on a regular basis. Whether we offer our sacrificial gift on a weekly or monthly basis is there room for a modest increase? Is our gift a sacrifice that honors God and the many graces and bless-ings He has poured into our lives? As the Lord thirsted for the faith of the Samaritan woman at the well, Christ thirsts for our response, with grateful hearts, a sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving to God.

HOW MUCH DOES THE BIBLE SAY I SHOULD DONATE TO MY CHURCH? BY ANN NAFFZIGER AUGUST 26, 2013
The Old Testament contains a vast amount of material about giving a portion of one’s harvest, properties, or ownings back to God. Many commandments in the Old Testament mandate giving of one’s “first fruits” i.e. the first of the fruit or grain harvest, or the first of the newborn livestock. The Hebrew word for this offering is translated as “tithe” or “a tenth-part” with the emphasis being that the first fruits are intentionally offered.
The New Testament doesn’t adopt the language of tithing or mandate that a particu-lar percent be given for the support of a religious institution. That said, in Mark 12:41-44, Jesus praised a woman who put the equivalent of a penny into the Temple treas-ury (similar to the collection basket at churches today), but denounced someone else who gave a tenth of his income with a public show of self-righteous grandeur (Luke 18:9-14).
The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops suggests we give a “planned, pro-portionate, and sacrificial” amount, yet like the New Testament does not tell us what percentage of our income that should be. What is a clear biblical challenge is that we give of our “first fruits” rather than our “leftovers,” those one dollar bills that we sometimes slip into the collection basket on Sunday because we’ve already spent our paychecks. A more biblical approach to tithing would be to include our charitable giv-ing as a non-negotiable line item in our monthly budgets right along with food, utilities and rent.
KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS BLOOD DRIVE This is just a reminder that IF you would be so kind as to consider donating blood during the next Knights of Columbus Blood Drive. It is Thursday, April 23rd from 2:00 to 6:00pm in Gannon Hall. The last date that you could donate previously is Thursday, February 27th.
We have over 30 time slots open and available in 5-10 minute increments. It typically only requires 20 minutes or so to complete the entire process so please consider donating. Each blood donation has the potential of saving up to four lives! As always, there are snacks and refreshments availa-ble and of course, sparkling conversation (and Dad jokes) with me. You can sign up online at www.bloodcenter.org or contact me via email or cell phone (563-554-4352). Walk ins are also wel-come!

Cuando manifieste en medio de ustedes mi santidad, los reuniré de todos los países; derramaré sobre ustedes agua pura y quedarán purificados de todos sus pecados, y les infundiré un espíritu nuevo, dice el Señor. Cfr. Ez 36, 23-26
LA SANTA MISA DE HOY ES EN MEMORIA DE PASCUAL GODOY AYALA
Hemos escuchado, muchas veces, las Escrituras de este fin de semana relatando el encuentro de Jesús con la
mujer samaritana en el pozo. Aquí, algo extraordinario está sucediendo. Jesús le pide a la mujer samaritana una bebida de agua. Al hacerlo, el Señor la invita a un acto de generosidad. Esta simple invitación no sólo despierta
su generosidad sino que, al final, la lleva a un encuentro que cambia la vida con Cristo.
Este fin de semana, al continuar nuestra renovación de Corresponsabilidad, nos estamos enfocando en la im-portancia de ofrecer a Dios nuestro regalo sacrificial de tesoro financier. Como el Señor trató de sacar de la
mujer samaritana su generosa respuesta a su invitación a una bebida de agua, el Señor también desea que nues-tra generosa respuesta a Su invitación sea buenos y fieles administradores de los recursos que nos ha dado.
Ya sea que estemos bastante bien económicamente o apenas lo estamos haciendo mes a mes, hay una cosa en común. Dios desea que le ofrezcamos los primeros frutos de nuestro tesoro financier. De hecho, ofrecer nues-
tro regalo de tesoro semanal/mensual es un acto de adoración. En cada Misa, cuando se toma la colección, ofrecemos nuestro don sacrificial del tesoro mientras los dones del pan y del vino son traídos al altar para ser transformados en la ofrenda perfecta
del cuerpo y de la sangre de Cristo. Jesús se ofreció completa y totalmente mientras estiraba sus brazos y murió por nosotros en la Cruz. La ofrenda de nuestro don sacrificial del tesoro y la ofrenda de nuestra vida están unidos, en adoración, a la ofrenda
sacrificial perfecta de Jesucristo, en la cual participamos en cada Eucaristía.
La ofrenda de nuestro don financiero del tesoro es un acto de adoración en el cual confiamos en Dios con nuestras finanzas. La
ofrenda de nuestro tesoro es también un regalo de sacrificio. Vemos en las Escrituras la historia del ácaro de la viuda, uno que le dio toda su vida. Cuando me han pedido dar en un nivel que me pareció que estaba un poco fuera de mi zona de confort, me
han sorprendido de lo mucho que he recibido a cambio. Las bendiciones y gracias que vienen a nuestro camino cuando damos sacrificios son numerosas.
Este fin de semana, animo a cada uno de nosotros a considerar con oración la cantidad de nuestro tesoro financiero que diezmos
regularmente. Si ofrecemos nuestro regalo de sacrificio semanal o mensualmente, ¿hay espacio para un modesto aumento? ¿es nuestro don un sacrificio que honra a Dios y las muchas gracias y bendiciones que él ha derramado en nuestras vidas? Como el
Señor tenía sed de la fe de la mujer samaritana en el pozo, Cristo tiene sed de nuestra respuesta, con corazones agradecidos, sacrificio de alabanza y acción de gracias a Dios.
Unas Palabras del Padre
