‘POPE FRANCIS AMONG THE WOLVES’
During my recent vacation in Ireland, I read Marco Politi’s newly published book, Pope
Francis Among the Wolves. Marco Politi has been a leading international expert on Vatican
issues for more than forty years. Politi, in his book, highlights Pope Francis’s emphasis on
pastoral sensitivity and compassion for all who struggle with living the Christian message.
Sadly, this has provoked the ire legalists and traditionalists.
Politi claims that the Pope is isolated in the Vatican, with no pro-Bergoglio party evident in the Curia.
Pope Francis will not be easily dissuaded from his vision of Church as prior to his election as Pope, Cardinal
Bergoglio is described by Politi as a clever, even “cunning”, strategist who knows all about dirty tricks from
the bare-knuckled politics of Argentina.
Among the Pope’s strongest supporters is the retired Pope Benedict XVI. On June 28, the 65th anniversary
of the retired pope’s priestly ordination, Benedict expressed his gratitude to Francis, saying that his goodness
“from the first moment of your election, in every moment of my life here, touches me deeply.” Recalling
Benedict’s promise of obedience to his successor in the days leading up to the conclave, Francis said he had
heard that some people, after complaining “about the new pope,” have been “sent away” by Benedict. “If [the
report] isn’t true, it is well-founded, because this man is like that: a man of his word, a righteous man!” Francis exclaimed.
Pope Benedict XVI, who was one of the most influential theologians at the Second Vatican Council, often
exhorted the People of God to re-read the documents of the Council to rediscover what they contained. Pope
John XXIII convoked the Second Vatican Council and Pope Paul VI guided the Council to its conclusion and
began the implementation of its decrees.
The Holy Spirit was truly speaking through the bishops of the world who met from 1962-65, in communion with each other and with the Successor of Peter. It is important that we continue to digest what the Spirit
was saying through them.
In the years after the Council, many things that were labeled “Vatican II” were nowhere in the documents
of Vatican II, but came from the opinions of this or that individual. On the other hand, the Council documents
were rejected by a minority of individuals who wanted to retreat to the past way of doing things. Studying the
documents themselves is the antidote to both extremes.
The Council did intend to renew and reform the liturgy, to bring the riches of Sacred Scripture to more
Catholics, to involve the laity more in the daily life of the Church, to reach out to the modern world with
Christ’s teaching. It hoped, through the foundation of the Synod of bishops, to establish a permanent means
of keeping the Pope in touch with the whole Church. It wanted to promote unity among Christians and harmony with non-Christians. Most of all, the Council hoped for a spiritual renewal in all of us, so that we would
answer the Universal Call to Holiness. These, and the other projects of the Council, have been partially realized. There is still much more to do. Not all the goals of the Council have been met.
Pope Francis received his theological education during Vatican II. He has declared unequivocally that the
genuine reforms of the Council are to be continued and strengthened. He has given an example in his manner
of living and his own ministry of where the Council said the Church should be. He has called upon all of us to
assist him in the reform of the Church. We pray that God will give him a long life so he will be able to realize
his hopes.

Fr. Michael Moore is with us again this weekend,
August 13th and 14th. Many of you know him
already from his many visits to St. Isidore Church.
This time he is making the MISSIONARY COOPERATIVE PLAN APPEAL on behalf of the St,
Patrick Fathers. He is a member of the St. Patrick
Fathers and has been on their USA Promotion Team
since 1994.
St Patrick’s Missionary Society (also known as St.
Patrick’s Fathers) was formally established on March
17, 1932. The Society was founded by Irish Diocesan
priests who initially had gone to work on a temporary
basis in Nigeria, West Africa, but who later wished
to dedicate their lives fully to the missions. Later as
the new missionary society grew, more work was
undertaken,m not only in Nigeria but also in Kenya
(1951), Brazil (1962), Malawi (1970), Grenada
(1970), Zambia (1973), Sudan (1983), Zimbabwe
(1989), Cameroon (1989) and Homelands of South
Africa (1989).
There are now 291 priests in the Society, of
which 21 are newly-ordained African priests.
After a drop in vocations in recent years, there
are now more than 50 students and two deacons
preparing for the priesthood information centers in Nigeria, Kenya and South Africa.
Most of the people among whom we work are
extremely poor, and we have no means of training our seminarians and supporting our priests
in their work other than the donations we receive.

RCIA Inquiry
Throughout the history of Christianity, people of all faiths have found their way to the Catholic Church.
While each person’s journey is as unique as the individual , all are drawn to the one God
and for the same purpose – to know Him, to love Him and to serve Him.
The Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults offers a program of faith formation for adults
that will prepare them for full initiation/communion into the Catholic Church.
New Group Now Forming!
For more information or to register, contact Lyn Ford, Director of Religious Education (925-362-1905).
Bible Study:
Matthew, The King & His Kingdom
by Jeff Cavins and Sarah Christmyer
Matthew
Matthew: The King and His Kingdom is an exciting
study that explores the life and mission of Jesus
as recorded in the Gospel. Matthew demonstrates
how the promises and prophecies of the Old Testament are fulfilled in Christ, who establishes a
New Law and inaugurates the Kingdom of Heaven
on earth. Participants will see Jesus as the awaited Messiah who relives the life and struggles of
Israel to become the faithful and victorious King.
Set in the rich context of Jesus' Jewish culture,
this study will help participants understand who
Jesus is and what his life and teachings mean for
us today.
Wednesday, September 7th (9:15—11 AM)
Thursday, September 8th (7:15—9 PM).
No previous scripture knowledge needed!
*Class registration fee: $65;

SSP in year 2.
FAITH FORMATION REGISTRATION
THE GOSPEL THIS WEEK:
Jesus wants his followers to know the truth.
Jesus tells us that, if we are truly living as
Christians, sometimes we will experience trouble and division. We cannot experience the
peace of Christ until we turn away from sin and
let God reign in our lives. Sometimes when
people chose to do God's will, those they love
turn against them. This can happen when people do not fully understand or accept the message of Jesus. This conflict with loved ones is
what Jesus speaks of today. Remember that
Jesus himself suffered rejection.
DISCUSS AS A FAMILY:
When does faith require divisions?
When does it require unity?
LITTLE FARMERS
Fall registration is currently underway. Forms
are available at church entrances, in the Faith
Formation Office and on our website: http://

St. Isidore School continues to strive to keep tuition as low as possible. The
revenue from tuition and key fundraising events covers approximately 82%
of the schools actual operating costs. This leaves a “Gap” of approximately
$500 per student. This past year “Mind the Gap”, tuition and our fund raising
efforts collectively raised the necessary funds needed to effectively run our
school. The benefit of “Mind the Gap” to school families, grandparents and
extended families is that your generous donations are tax-deductible. Whether
you are able to donate $100 or $10,000, every donation benefits our children
and our school. Please donate to “Mind the Gap” today and help make a
difference!
