St. Catherine of Siena Catholic Church Prayer & Worship Mass Intentions Twenty Second Sunday of Ordinary Time Saturday, August 27 Today’s Readings 4:00 pm First Reading Alice W.

Your first thought is the hope that you didn’t say anything to embarrass yourself; but your second thought is how much they seemed like such “regular” folks. What is it that makes people seem so “regular”? Today’s readings give us a clue when they stress the importance of humility. It is so hard for us not to tell the first person who will listen how busy we are, how hard we work, how much money we donate, and how important our job titles are. We think these accolades make a difference to people, and if we don’t tell them, how will they ever know? But if our actions demonstrate our values, people will recognize our worth on their own. The words of Jesus show us how much better it is to let someone else recognize our worth than to be embarrassed because someone did not. Our Family Prayer 9:00 am Dr. Bill Schmidt 9:00 am Gospel Saints and Special Observances Parish Family 9:00 am Randy Perrone 11:00 am Alice Babin Ariel Bischoff Adam Dicks Peter Finney, Sr. Milton Gagnon Raymond Gambel Eloise Gunn William John Hammond Aurora Caravella Jones Dennis Roth, Sr. Karen Walton Benjamin Wessel 5:30 pm Second Reading Conduct your affairs with humility and God will favor you (Sirach 3:17-18, 20, 28-29). (Psalm 68). You have approached Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant (Hebrews 12:18-19, 22-24a). When invited to dine, take the lowest place. Those who humble themselves will be exalted (Luke 14:1, 7-14). Loving and faithful God, through the years the people of our archdiocese have appreciated the prayers and love of Our Lady of Prompt Succor in times of war, disaster, epidemic and illness. We come to you, Father, with Mary our Mother, and ask you to help us in the battle of today against violence, murder and racism. We implore you to give us your wisdom that we may build a community founded on the values of Jesus, which gives respect to the life and dignity of all people. Bless parents that they may form their children in faith. Bless and protect our youth that they may be peacemakers of our time. Give consolation to those who have lost loved ones through violence. Hear our prayer and give us the perseverance to be a voice for life and human dignity in our community. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Our Lady of Prompt Succor, hasten to help us. Mother Henriette Delille, pray for us that we may be a holy family. Amen.
