EIGHTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
“YEAR OF FAITH”
Mass Intentions
Today’s Gospel Reflection
First Reading: Eccl 1:2; 2:21-23 * Psalm 90:3-6, 12-14, 17 *
Second Reading: Col 3:1-5, 9-11 * Gospel: Lk 12:13-21
BARNS FILLED WITH RICHES
The mortgage is paid off. So are the
loans that were taken out for college tuition
and children’s weddings. The second home
that was once a far-off dream is now so
close that it seems safe to dig out the real
estate magazines. And then . . . a daughter
or son can no longer take care of a child.
It’s time to start over, this time as grandparents in the parents’
role. Thousands of older adults face this situation today, becoming temporary or permanent guardians of their grandchildren.
Vanity of vanities. The years of toil with sights set on a great
reward now belong to someone else: food, clothing, braces,
summer camps, and school tuition.
But, as one grandmother said of her 13-year-old granddaughter, Megan, “It has all been worth it. She brings such joy.
What would I do without her?”
And so the barns filled with “riches” are again taken down
and new and true riches are discovered. Once again a new self
is found in Christ, and the storehouse is filled with life that is truly
pleasing to God.

GRANEROS LLENOS DE BIENES
Ya pagamos la hipoteca. Y también los préstamos que se
tomaron para el pago de la universidad y las bodas de los hijos. La
segunda casa, que una vez fue un sueño lejano está ahora tan
cerca que sería recomendable empezar a revisar las revistas de
bienes raíces. Y en ese momento. . . un hijo o una hija no puede
atender a su propio hijo. Es entonces tiempo de volver a empezar,
esta vez como abuelos en el rol de padres. Miles de adultos
mayores se enfrentan hoy a esa situación, y se convierten en
tutores temporales o permanentes de sus nietos.
Vanidad de vanidades. Los años de trabajo arduo con miras a
una gran jubilación hoy pertenecen a alguien más: comida, ropa,
ortodoncia, campamentos, escolaridades.
Pero, como dijo una abuela de su nieta de 13 años, “Todo
ha valido la pena. Ella me da una enorme alegría. ¿Qué haría yo
sin ella?”
Y así el granero lleno de “bienes” se vacía y descubrimos
nuevas y verdaderas riquezas. Otra vez encontramos nueva vida
en Cristo, y el almacén se llena de la vida que realmente agrada a
Dios.

ST. MICHAEL CHURCH
PARADISE HILLS, SAN DIEGO
Pastor’s Message
Dear Parishioners and friends,
“Parents have the first responsibility for the education of their children. They bear witness to this
responsibility first by creating a home where tenderness, forgiveness, respect, fidelity, and
disinterested service are the rule….” (Catechism of the Catholic Church, 2223)
“Education in the faith by the parents should begin in the child’s earliest years. This already
happens when family members help one another to grow in faith by the witness of a Christian life in keeping with the
Gospel…. Parents have the mission of teaching their children to pray and to discover their vocation as children of
God. The parish is the Eucharistic community and the heart of the liturgical life of Christian families; it is a privileged place
for the catechesis of children and parents.” (Catechism of the Catholic Church, 2226)
St. Michael Academy teams up with parents in forming our children to be spiritually, intellectually,
and socially prepared to integrate gospel values for living a Catholic, Christian life in a secular world.
We are now accepting students from pre-school to 8th Grade for the school year 2013-2014. Classes
will begin on August 26. We offer a $1,000 discount to new families enrolling in the Academy. Catholic
education is an investment! Give your children or grandchildren a gift of a lifetime!

Blessings from St. Michael Academy to the St. Michael Parish Community!
I hope you are enjoying the warm breezes of summer and the extended hours of sunlight! I know I am. But,
I am also thinking about the new school year beginning on August 26th. Remember, it is never too early to think
about the best school placement for your children. St. Michael Academy offers an excellent Catholic education.
While academic levels are high, our students’ education is infused with knowledge about our Catholic beliefs and
practices. Spirituality is part of the everyday experience at St. Michael Academy. Please consider giving your
children the gift of a lifetime - a Catholic education.
I invite you to call the office and schedule a tour of the school. Please phone: 619-470-4880, or, e-mail:

Culture of Life
Early Church Fathers and Abortion. One of the
arguments in Roe v. Wade court was: “It perhaps is not
generally appreciated that the restrictive criminal
abortion laws...are not of ancient or even of common law origin.” This is
misleading. Consider the following teachings by early Church fathers.
The first passage comes from the Didache (Greek for “teaching”),
which is usually dated as early as the end of the first century: “you shall
not murder a child by abortion nor kill that which is begotten” (Chapter 2).
This statement is as clear as it gets.
The second passage is from St. Barnabas from the early second
century: “You shall love your neighbor more than your own soul. You
shall not slay the child by procuring abortion; nor, again, shall you
destroy it after it is born” (Chapter 9).
St. Basil the Great (c.330-379): “Women also who administer drugs
to cause abortion, as well as those who take poisons to destroy unborn
children, are murderesses.” (Letter 188, to Amphilochius concerning the
canons, Section 8). Notice here how St. Basil is not making any
distinctions about what stage in the pregnancy is okay to administer
drugs to cause abortion.
Nowhere in these quotes is there a distinction being made
between any “stages” of life. For the Fathers, abortion is
unequivocal.
Please come and pray the Rosary to promote a
Culture of Life every Tuesday, 6:30pm in the Church.

MODESTY IS A FRUIT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT and should be sought
after by all of us. Parents (and other responsible adults) have a
special responsibility to guard the modesty of children and to
provide a good example. (www.mycatholicsource.com)
PROPER ATTIRE INSIDE CHURCH
The sacredness of the Church as the House of God and the Eucharistic celebration urge all participants to dress and manifest
the importance of what they are doing. "The mystery of the Eucharist has found historical expression not only in the demand for an interior disposition of devotion, but also in outward forms meant to evoke and emphasize the grandeur of
the event being celebrated." [Ecclesia de Eucharistia, no. 49]
"For all of you who were baptized
into Christ have clothed yourselves
with Christ." [Gal 3:27]
Saint Michael the Archangel,
defend us in battle. Be our
protection against the wickedness and
snares of the devil. May God rebuke
him, we humbly pray; and do Thou,
O Prince of the Heavenly Host - by the
Divine Power of God - cast into hell,
Satan and all the evil spirits, who roam
throughout the world seeking the ruin
of souls. Amen.
