This Week's Announcements

Text Box: PETER AND PAUL Today is something of a rarity: the celebration of a saint's day that replaces the Sunday liturgy. Only a handful of these days, given the official rank of "solemnity," are considered so foundational and primal to the mission of the Church that they can interrupt the Sunday sequence. And so it is with Peter and Paul today. In a way, they each have personality traits with which we can identify. They are both impetuous, sometimes acting or speaking thoughtlessly, contradicting the spiritual gifts given to them by God. At such times, they might receive a nudge from God, much the same as many of us experience. On the positive side, these men were deeply rooted in their faith in Christ, tireless and fearless in living out their call to spread the Good News of his death and resurrection. Perhaps we might identify more with one or the other, but the essential truth we celebrate today is this: Through the Spirit, Christ built and continues to build the Church and make the kingdom known through fragile, remarkable human beings, each graced in a particular way for the work of the reign of God.

Text Box: Peter’s pence this weekend The theme for this year’s collection “Christ, Our Hope,” echoes that of the Holy Father’s apostolic journey to the United States in April of this year. The theme reflects the message of Pope Benedict’s encyclical “Spe Salvi”, an invitation for people to encounter Jesus Christ personally. In the encyclical, Pope Benedict said that faith in Christ brings well-founded hope in eternal salvation, the great hope that can sustain people through the trials of this world. Your donations … Enable the Holy Father to respond with immediate emergency assistance to the most disadvantaged throughout the world, those who suffer as result of war, oppression, disease, and natural disasters. Provide an opportunity for Catholics to support the Holy Father's missions, an active expression of Christ’s love for the poor, and stand in solidarity with Catholics worldwide. You can find envelopes for this special collection in the pewracks today.

Text Box: Safeguard the children - discipline or abuse? Discipline is designed to help children control and change their behavior. Its purpose is to encourage moral, physical and intellectual development and a sense of responsibility in children. Abuse is mistreatment that results in injury or harm to a child.
