A brief description of the role of the council and of the qualities needed in council members is included in this week’s bulletin. I ask you to read the insert in this week’s bulletin and to pray that God will inspire men and women to come forth to minister in our parish as members of the parish pastoral council. More details about the selection process will follow in the coming weeks. A Prayer for the Pastoral Council Selection Process Come, O Holy Spirit of the living God, and show us your ways. Guide our parish discernment of those who are called to the ministry of leadership in and through the work of the parish pastoral council. Grant us wisdom to know our gifts. Call us to put those gifts at the service of your people. Give us zeal and holy courage to respond generously to your invitation. And grant your grace to all in our parish faith communities as they seek to live out the mission of Jesus. We pray this in his name, who with you and the sustaining Father is one God, forever and ever. Amen. Msgr. John Talesfore, Pastor St. Matthew Catholic Church 2 September 4, 2016 ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Discernimiento para integrar el Consejo Pastoral Parroquial Viendo hacia el futuro, necesitamos volver a establecer el consejo pastoral parroquial.

Les pido que lean el volante y oren para que Dios inspire a los hombres y mujeres para venir a servir en nuestra parroquia como miembros del consejo pastoral parroquial. Tendremos más detalles sobre el proceso de selección en las próximas semanas. Oración para el Proceso de Selección del Consejo Pastoral Ven, Espíritu Santo de Dios vivo, y muéstranos el camino.

Oramos esto en tu nombre, que contigo y el Padre es un solo Dios, por los siglos de los siglos. Amen Monseñor John Talesfore, Pastor MITIGATING GRIEF THROUGH PRIOR PLANNING Death is an inevitable event most of us do not want to face, but there are things we can do today (beforehand) that will help our families and loved ones when this reality occurs. To assist with this need, we are sponsoring in St. Timothy three Monday evening presentations on October 10,17 and 24, 2016 between 7:00 - 8:30pm. In the GYM. Each will address a different aspect of these needs that will be faced by our families and loved ones when they are coping with death. This prior planning on our part can help to relieve the stress and grief that they will inevitably experience at that time. The Topics are as follows: October 10, 2016 “Prior Planning in legal and financial areas to mitigate the grief of loved ones” Mr. Kendall Coffman, Esq. October 17, 2016 “Prior Planning for a funeral and burial in the Catholic tradition to mitigate the grief of loved ones” Ms. Monica Williams, Director, Holy Cross Cemetery –Archdioceses of San Francisco Mr. Rick Riffel, Funeral Director of Schneider and Sullivan October 24, 2016 “Walking and surviving the path of Greif” Sr. Toni Gallagher, RSM, Bereavement coordinator -Archdioceses of San Francisco This is a Free Event!

Esta frase de Jesús es una exageración que nos estremece para enfrentar desafíos que cambian la vida. Enfrentando un conflicto ante quien ser leal, los discípulos deben reordenar sus prioridades, aún sus relaciones, para poner en primer lugar a Jesús y al Evangelio. La segunda lectura presenta un ejemplo de la vida real. Pablo desafía a un rico recién converso al cristianismo, Filemón, a recibir nuevamente a Onésimo no como su esclavo y además fugitivo que era sino como hermano en Cristo. Además de pedirle que le otorgue la libertad y que deje de tener la posición de esclavo, le pide que lo acepte como un hombre libre y más aún como hermano en Cristo. ¿En este Año Jubilar de la Misericordia a qué estamos siendo desafiados por ser discípulos de Jesús? “If anyone comes to me without hating . . . father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, and even his [or her] own life” (Luke 14:26). Hating? Can anyone imagine a less appropriate Gospel for the Jubilee Year of Mercy? But scholars call this Semitic hyperbole. Jesus exaggerates to jolt us into confronting lifechanging challenges. Faced with conflicting loyalties, disciples must reorder priorities, even relationships, to give Jesus and the gospel’s demands first place. Today’s second reading presents a real-life example. Paul challenges his wealthy convert, Philemon, to welcome back Philemon’s runaway slave, Onesimus, whom Paul has baptized in prison. Not only with unconditional forgiveness but with a counter-cultural, world-shattering change of status—as an equal. No, even more—a beloved brother in Christ. What in my life does the Jubilee Year of Mercy challenge me to “hate”—meaning reform, redo, even utterly revamp—so I can give everyone, no conditions, no exceptions, shockingly Christlike love? —Peter Scagnelli, Copyright © J.
