Sunday July 3, 2016 Bulletin FOURTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME “The harvest is abundant but the laborers are few; so ask the master of the harvest to sent out laborers for his harvest.” Luke 10 ST.

Our Gospel from Luke is very challenging. Jesus says to his disciples: Go on your way; behold, I am sending you like lambs among wolves.” Fr. John Henderson Ministry is not always easy. Sharing the Good News is not always easy. I am in love with the Lord but not everyone is eager or willing to hear that. I believe in God with all my heart, soul and mind. I believe in LIFE, all LIFE from conception to natural death. Abortion is wrong. LIFE is precious. For me it seems so easy to understand but it is not when you take a stand. God created the world and everything in it. Everything God created, God said is good. Every man, woman and child belongs to God, no matter who they are, no matter what they look like. We have been given the responsibility of taking care of all of creation. For me it seems so easy to understand but it is not when you live the message. God sent us God’s only Son to show us the way. God’s word of love suffered on a cross and died for our sins. God’s Son is forgiving, compassionate and merciful, and yet Jesus was rejected and killed. That was not easy. Our life, no mater what, must be about forgiveness, compassion and mercy. For me it seems so easy to understand but it is not when you show it. Marriage and the family must be treasured. We must show our support and do all we can to strengthen the importance of father and mother and son and daughter. For me it seems so easy to understand but it is not when you treasure it. The poor are the most vulnerable. We must reach out and embrace our brothers and sisters under the bridges along the railroad tracks, in the gutters. We need to be their voice. For me it seems so easy to understand but it is not when you speak on their behalf. Even though it is difficult and people will make fun of you and persecute you know that God is at your side. One thing is important, in your ministry always-live lives of love. It is not easy but well worth it. Have a great week and a blessed 4th of July. Your friend, Fr. John LEADERSHIP Rev.

Attendees included Mary, Gerlinde, Kathy, Veronica, Donna, Susie, Cindy, and Kevin. The Commission made the following decisions: • The “target” for the minimum number of survey responses is 200. • The survey schedule was extended through the Summer. • A number of actions will be taken to advertise the survey and promote responses, including an outreach during the fellowship time after Sunday masses. The next meeting is scheduled for July 21st and all are welcome to attend! Highlights of the Life, Justice & Peace Meeting – June 9, 2016 Community Alliance of Tenants Workshop: We agreed that 20 people attending was a good showing for the first year. The hope is to reach more tenants next year. Interfaith Power & Light Postcards: Response to this Earth Day event was disappointing. Next year we will advertise more and have the actual postcards available for parishioners to sign. 2016 Offering of Letters: Ten letters were written over the three Sundays we had a table at fellowship and were hand-delivered to the archdiocesan office. With an eye toward growing this campaign next year we will encourage participation in a letter writing event with the video presentation from Bread for the World. Union Gospel Mission: The Lifechange for Women program run by Union Gospel Mission in Beaverton could accommodate a tour on Tuesday or Thursday after 10 a.m. Feast of St. Francis Catholic Climate Covenant program: The feast of St. Francis is Oct. 4. We will look into providing informational materials to raise awareness in the parish about this feast and the ties to Care for Creation called for by Pope Francis. October is Respect Life month: Sept. 28 – Nov. 9 is the “40 Days for Life” this year. We will try to provide pamphlets and display posters during this time. Oregon Care Partners classes: Oregon Care Partners offers free classes for caregivers on a wide variety of topics to help with issues common to caring for aging loved ones.

This is love—for ourselves and for others. It is also the expression and therefore the experience , of faith and trust in God. At Mass we broaden our perspective and pray for the whole church. This makes us grow in special love for the whole community of faith by praying in an all inclusive way for everyone who believes. We do this in joining in the “presidential prayers” * the Collect * Prayer over the offerings, and the Prayer after Communion. “A Fresh Look at the Mass by Fr. David M. Knight.

As Catholics, we are called to be responsible citizens, and our US Bishops tells us that “participation in political life is a moral obligation.” Jesus calls us to be salt and light in the world, so we should participate in public life (and this includes voting, as a responsible citizen) in a way to helps us to carry out the mission of Jesus. The Church calls us first of all to have a fully formed conscience, which means that we need to listen to, accept, and act upon the Church’s teaching. The Catholic Church teaches four basic principles of Catholic social doctrine: DIGNITY OF THE HUMAN PERSON: The US Bishops write: “A Catholic cannot vote for a candidate who favors a policy promoting an intrinsically evil act, such as abortion, euthanasia, assisted suicide, deliberately subjecting workers or the poor to subhuman living conditions, redefining marriage in ways that violate its essential meaning, or racist behavior, if the voter’s intent is to support that position. In such cases, a Catholic would be guilty of formal cooperation in grave evil. At the same time, a voter should not use a candidate’s opposition to an intrinsic evil to justify indifference or inattentiveness to other important moral issues involving human life and dignity.” THE COMMON GOOD: In our Declaration of Independence, the founding fathers acknowledge this: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness . . . “ The common good requires the recognition of individual rights and equality—“respect for the person as such” (CCC 1907), as well as “the social well-being and development of the group itself” (CCC 1908) and peace. SUBSIDIARITY: “A community of a higher order should not interfere in the internal life of a community of a lower order, depriving the latter of its functions, but rather should support it in case of need and help to co-ordinate its activity with the activities of the rest of society, always with a view to the common good” (CCC 1883). This principle is opposed to every form of collectivism, sets limits for state intervention, and tries to harmonize relationships between individuals and societies (CCC 1885). SOLIDARITY: While the Catholic Church will always remain non-partisan and does not promote or endorse any candidates, as Catholics we should follow what the Church teaches as we go to the polls. We cannot be more committed to a political party or candidate than to the Lord Jesus. The Bishops tell us, “take into account a candidate’s commitments, character, integrity, and ability to influence a given issue. In the end, this is a decision to be made by each Catholic guided by a conscience formed by Catholic moral teaching.” COMMUNITY LIFE AND GROUPS Monday - Friday, July 11 – 15, 2016 OUR LADY OF PEACE RETREAT – BEAVERTON 43rd Institute in Catholic Teaching Speakers: Fr.

Visit our website at www.olpretreat.org to register, email Window into Divine Mercy Masses are not just for the dead! Do you want to thank God for a blessing? Do you have a family member or yourself that could use prayers? Perhaps there is an anniversary of the death of a loved one you want to remember or a birthday/quinceanera of some one living. Requesting a mass intention is as simple as picking up the phone and calling the parish office or coming into and talking with either Lucille or Each act of mercy is a two directional flow of mercy. We, who are showing mercy to someone are at the same time receiving mercy from them. They, in their need and suffering are giving us the opportunity to be merciful. This opportunity is an act of mercy shown to us. In this perspective, we cannot but be thankful to the one we show mercy to for giving us the chance to pass on the mercy God has shown us and expects us to pass on to others. We are as dependent on them as they are on us. A prayer of thanksgiving is due from both sides of a merciful act of love. In his earlier years, Pope John Paul II had difficulty in meeting people who were suffering from illness. With time, however, he came to understand and appreciate the deep meaning of their suffering and the great benefit of it for those who their suffering met. In the encyclical Dives in Misericordia, Pope John Paul II wrote, “An act of merciful love is only really such when we are deeply convinced at the moment that we perform it that we are at the same time receiving mercy from the people who are accepting it from us. If this bilateral and reciprocal quality is absent, our actions are not yet true acts of mercy, nor has there yet been fully completed in us that conversion to which Christ has shown us the way...”. Jesus I Trust in You - Losia Radominski Page 12 HISPANIC MINISTRY Queridos amigos, Espero que esta carta te encuentre bien y de buen humor. Nuestro Evangelio de Lucas es muy difícil. Jesús dice a sus discípulos: Vayan por su camino; he aquí, yo los envío como corderos en medio de lobos”. Ministerio no siempre es fácil. Compartir la Buena Nueva no siempre es fácil. Estoy en amor con el Señor, pero no todo el mundo está ansioso o dispuesto a escuchar eso. Creo en Dios con todo mi corazón, alma y mente. Creo en la vida, toda la vida desde la concepción hasta la muerte natural. El aborto está mal. La vida es preciosa. Para mí parece tan fácil de entender, pero no lo es cuando usted toma lo contrario. Dios creó el mundo y todo en él. Todo lo que Dios creó, Dios dijo es bueno. Cada hombre, mujer y niño que es de Dios, no importa lo que son, no importa lo que parecen. Se nos ha dado la responsabilidad de cuidar de toda la creación. Para mí parece tan fácil de entender, pero no lo es cuando se vive el mensaje. Dios nos ha enviado el Hijo único de Dios que nos muestre el camino. Palabra del amor de Dios sufrió en la cruz y murió por nuestros pecados. Hijo de Dios es indulgente, misericordioso y compasivo, y sin embargo Jesús fue rechazado y matado. Eso no fue fácil. Nuestra vida, sin importar que, debe ser sobre el perdón, la compasión y la misericordia. Para mí parece tan fácil de entender, pero no lo es cuando tú lo demuestras. El matrimonio y la familia deben ser apreciados. Debemos mostrar nuestro apoyo y hacer todo lo posible para reforzar la importancia de padre y madre e hijo e hija. Para mí parece tan fácil de entender, pero no lo es cuando tu l vives. Los pobres son los más vulnerables. Hay que extender la mano y abrazar a nuestros hermanos y hermanas debajo de los puentes a lo largo de las vías del ferrocarril, en las cunetas. Tenemos que ser su voz. Para mí parece tan fácil de entender, pero no lo es cuando usted habla en el nombre de ellos. A pesar de que es difícil y la gente se burle de ti y te persiga, recuerda que Dios está a tu lado. Una cosa que es importante, en tu ministerio vive siempre la vida con amor. No es fácil, pero vale la pena. Tengas una gran semana y un bendecido 4 de julio. Tu amigo, Fr.

Mối ưu tư hàng đầu của Ngài là làm cho mọi ngườiø được nghe biết Tin mừng. Mối ưu tư ấy đã được diễn tả trong lúc thổ lộ tâm tình với các môn đệ :”Lúa chín thì nhiều mà thợ gặt thì ít. Vậy các con hãy xin chủ ruộng sai thợ gặt lúa về”(Lc 10,2). Sau khi đã trang bị cho họ những khả năng tinh thần tuyệt diệu, Đức Giêsu đã sai 72 môn đệ đi loan báo Tin mừng bình an cho mọi người. Ngài ân cần khuyên họ đừng lo tìm an toàn nơi các phương tiện vật chất trần gian. Họ vâng lời ra đi và đã trở về trong hân hoan. Đức Kitô cho họ biết họ hãy vui mừng vì tên tuổi họ đã được ghi trên Nước Trời. Ngày nay, Đức Giêsu vẫn muốn cho công việc rao giảng Tin mừng ấy phải được tiếp tục trong Hội thánh. Vậy những ai được và phải loan báo Tin mừng ấy ? Đó là mọi Kitô hữu. Tất cả những ai đã được chịu phép rửa tội đều có sứ mạng nên thánh và truyền BAN ĐIỀU HÀNH & MỤC VỤ CỘNG ĐOÀN Linh Mục Chánh Xứ: Cha John Henderson Linh Mục Quản Nhiệm: Cha Phêrô Nhật Hoàng Linh Mục Hưu Dưỡng: Cha Giuse Nguyễn Đức Hậu Chủ Tịch Cộng Đoàn: Anh Bùi Lợi Phó Chủ Tịch Nội Vụ: Anh Phạm Đình Hiếu Phó Chủ Tịch Ngoại Vụ: Anh Nguyễn Tấn Trực Thủ Quỹ & Tài Chánh: Anh Nguyễn Văn Bình Đại Diện Cộng Đoàn VN với GX Mỹ Anh Phạm Tuấn Thư Ký:Chị Lê Thị Anh Thư Hội Các Bà Mẹ Công Giáo: Chị Nguyễn Anna Dung Ca Đoàn Hương Chiều Anh Lương Thế Phiệt Thiếu Nhi Thánh Thể & Giới Trẻ: HT Kim Trang Thừa Tác Viên Lời Chúa : Chị Lê Thị Tuyết Dung Thừa Tác Viên Thánh Thể/ Lễ Sinh: Anh Nguyễn Tín Trường Giáo Lý & Việt Ngữ: Thầy Phạm Quốc Hùng giáo (Redmptoris Missio)).

Bênêđictô, viện phụ-Lễ Nhớ 9/7: Thứ Bẩy trong Tuần 14 TN 10/7: CN 15 Thường Niên Truyện : Đôi tay của Chúa. Vào cuối thế chiến thứ hai, để thu phục thiện cảm và tin tưởng của người dân trong làng vừa mới đuợc giải phóng khỏi tay quân Đức Quốc xã, toán lính thuộc lực lượng đồng minh cố gắng lượm lại từng mảnh vỡ của bức tượng Chúa Giêsu đã được dựng lên ở quảng trường trước ngôi nhà thờ nhỏ, trung tâm sinh hoạt của làng quê miền cực nam nước Italia. Sau nhiều ngày cố gắng, toán lính đã gắn lại được gần như toàn bức tượng của Chúa. Nhưng chỉ có đôi tay bức tượng là không thể nào hàn gắn lại được. Vì các mảnh vụn lớp thì bị bể quá nhỏ, lớp thì đã bị nát thành như bụi. Sau nhiều giờ bàn luận và gần như sắp quyết định bỏ dở công việc, thì một người trong toán lính có sáng kiến tìm lấy hai khúc gỗ gắn vào nơi hai cánh tay bị bể nát của bức tượng, rồi viết vào đó một hàng chữ bất hủ, không những đánh động được tâm hồn những người dân trong làng, mà còn thu hút được nhiều khách du lịch đến vùng này để đọc tận mắt hàng chữ đầy ý nghĩa. Các bạn có thể đoán được hàng chữ này không ? Đó là :CHÍNH BẠN LÀ ĐÔI TAY CỦA CHÚA”. Lời Chúa qua các bài đọc lễ Chúa Nhật + Bài đọc 1 : Is 66,10-14c. Dân Do thái vẫn tỏ ra chán nản vì Giêrusalem vẫn chưa được phục hưng như bao người mong đợi. Tiên tri Isaia yên ủi họ bằng cách nêu lên những niềm hy vọng về một tương lai còn mờ mịt. Sau những cơn đau dữ dội của việc sinh con, người phụ nữ Sion cảm thấy vui mừng thư thái.Đó là hình ảnh dân Do thái, Chúa sẽ ban phúc lành cho dân, và phúc lành quí giá nhất là bình an. + Bài đọc 2 : Gl 6,14-18. Đây là đoạn cuối thư gửi cho tín hữu Galata, thánh Phaolô nói lên trọng tâm của Đạo thánh là mầu nhiệm thập giá của Đức Kitô. Có những người coi thập giá là cớ vấp phạm, có người cho là sự điên rồ, nhưng thánh Phaolô đã khám phá ra giá trị tuyệt với của nó : Thập giá đã mang lại ơn cứu độ, là lẽ sống của thánh Phaolô và là nguồn bình an và hạnh phúc của ngài. + Bài Tin mừng : Lc 10,1-12.17-20. Bài Tin mừng được chia thành hai phần : a) Đức Giêsu sai các môn đệ đi rao giảng Tin mừng: Đức Giêsu tuyển chọn 72 môn đệ. Con số 72 được nhắc đến là để ám chỉ 72 nước phát xuất từ miêu duệ ông Noê sau đại hồng thủy, hình ảnh thế giới mà tất cả mọi người được Đức Giêsu sai đi rao giảng Tin mừng,. b) Khi đi truyền giáo trở vê: Sau khi đi truyền giáo trở vê, các môn đệ vui mừng kể lại cho Đức Giêsu nghe về những thành công của mình, Ngài nhắc nhở các ông rằng những thành công ấy đáng ghi nhận , nhưng thành công lớn lao là họ được Thiên Chúa coi họ là công dân Nước Trời. Truyền giáo bằng sống niềm tin Trong bí tích Rửa tội, Linh mục hỏi người chịu phép rửa : - Hôm nay con xin gì cùng Hội thánh ? Người chịu phép thưa : - Thưa, con xin đức tin. Linh mục hỏi tiếp : - Đức tin sinh ơn ích gì cho con ? Người chịu phép thưa : - Thưa, đức tin đem lại cho con sự sống đời đời. Như vậy, Thiên Chúa đã ban đức tin cho người chịu phép rửa tội, và một khi đã là một Kitô hữu thì phải có đức tin. Một Kitô chỉ có đức tin thôi chưa đủ, còn phải sống đức tin nữa, nghĩa là phải thể hiện đức tin ấy trong cuộc sống hằng ngày. Có người cho rằng sống đức tin Kitô giáo là biết “sống tử tế” với mọi người. Sống tử tế là sống thế nào cho xứng với danh hiệu là “Kitô hữu”, người được mang tên Chúa, được thuộc về Chúa. Sống trong một dân tộc còn nhiều người chưa biết Chúa. Sống trong một đất nước còn nhiều khó khăn. Sống trong một xã hội còn nhiều giả dối, gian manh, lừa đảo, tiêu cực, thì đối với người Kitô, tin và sống niềm tin của mình là phải sống, phải tin thật tử tế, tức là tin và sống tình nhân loại, sống quảng đại, tóm lại là sống tình người với nhau. Tin và sống như thế không phải chỉ là cách sống dành cho các nữ tu, các linh mục mà cũng chính là sứ mạng và ơn gọi của mỗi Kitô hữu chúng ta Felix Frankfurter là một quan toà nổi tiếng của toà án tối cao của Hoa kỳ. Một lần kia ông được đưa vào bệnh viện, ở đó ông quen biết một y tá có tên là Lucy. Họ có những lúc ngồi nói chuyện thân mật và ông biết nhiều điều về Lucy. Trước đó, chưa bao giờ ông gặp được người nào có lòng quảng đại và nhân hậu như chị. Và ông bắt đầu tự hỏi và suy nghĩ, cố gắng phám phá suối nguồn của thái độ của chị. Điều ông khám phá như sau : Suối nguồn ấy không có gì là bí ẩn. Nó đơn giản , chỉ là sự áp dụng thực hành đức tin của chị. Lucy không bao giờ biết đức tin sống động của chị có ảnh hưởng như thế nào, nhưng chị đã làm cho Đức Giêsu hiện diện cụ thể trong bệnh viện này. Chị đem đến đôi bàn tay mà Đức Giêsu cần đến. Đức Giêsu cần những nhân chứng cho người ta như chị Lucy đến nỗi Người có thể trở thành Đấng an ủi như Người muốn làm. Một quan hệ thật sự với Đức Giêsu sẽ có một ảnh hưởng cả khi người có mối quan hệ ấy không đề cập đến Đức Giêsu. Dĩ nhiên, những người tin vào Đức Giêsu và yêu mến Người, cũng sẽ, khi thuận lợi, nói về Đức Giêsu một cách rõ ràng cởi mở
