A WORD FROM YOUR PASTOR1. A reminder that there will be no Eucharistic

Adoration this Monday due to the Labor Day holiday.

2. Please see below a Labor Day Prayer from the Book of Common Prayers:

Labor Day Prayer God our Creator, we are the work of Your hands. Guide us in our work, that we may do it, not for

self alone, but for the common good. Make us alert to injustice, ready to stand in solidarity, that there may be dignity for all inlaborandinlabor’sreward. Grant this through Christ our Lord. Amen. 3. A SPECIAL COLLECTION FOR THE GULF

COAST This week, we are witnessing the devastation

caused in Texas and other parts of the Gulf Coast region caused by Hurricane Harvey. The recovery is expected to take years, and many government and social aid agencies, including Catholic Charities USA, are already working tirelessly to bring comfort and relief to the millions of people affected by this disaster.

It is clear that the road to full recovery will be a long one, and additional support will be needed. In times of tragedy, we are reminded that the Church is always a primary source of healing and peace. However, as is often the case, the Church itself in these regions is both a source of help and aid as well as a victim. Many of the Churches will be damaged and their resources depleted, which makes it more difficult to fulfill the mission of providing aid, comfort, and the pastoral outreach to those in need.

With this in mind, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops has requested, and Bishop Campbell has approved, a special collection from the Diocese of Columbus for those affected by Hurricane Harvey. These funds will be used to support the efforts of Catholic Charities USA and other Catholic agencies as they reach out to provide humanitarian aid in Texas and other parts of the Gulf Coast region.

This collection will occur here at St. Edward the weekend of September 16th-17th. Please be generous.

WELCOME!You may have come as a stranger to us, yet you are known to Our Lord, Jesus Christ. In His name we pray you will find peace, hospitality and friendship with us.

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. We 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. Workbooks, which accompany this study, are $29.00 and may be purchased at the first session.

FOLLOW ME: MEETING JESUS IN THE GOSPEL OF JOHNMen and women! Please join us for our weekly Bible Study on Thursdays beginning September 14th after the 9:00 a.m. Mass (9:30-11:00) in classroom 8.

Jesus wants you to be more than just a believer – He wants you to be His disciple and friend. Follow Me: Meeting Jesus in the Gospel of John is your guide to a personal encounter with Christ. As the Good Shepherd, Jesus seeks after us. He comes to meet us and beckons us to follow Him. He calls us to be His disciples, to trust Him, to open ourselves to His merciful love, and to love others as He has loved us. Follow Me invites you to experience the joy of a renewed friendship with Christ. The sessions will include a video presentation and discussion questions. Cost of the workbook is $17.00. Please contact Gayle Blubaugh at 740-739-6740 or [email protected] to register or for further information.

The Catechism CornerThis week in our Catechisms we continue reading through Paragraph 4 entitled, “Christ’s Faithful- Hierarchy, Laity, Consecrated Life, paragraphs 874-879 – “Why the ecclesial (church) ministry?” 874 – Christ himself is the source of ministry. He instituted the Church. He gave her authority and mission, orientation and goal. The goal is that all may attain salvation. 875 – No one, no individual and no community, can proclaim the Gospel to himself. The one sent by the Lord does not act or speak on his own authority but by virtue of Christ’s authority. 876 – The sacramental nature of ecclesial (church) ministry is its character of service. 877 – The sacramental nature of ecclesial ministry has a collegial character. The Lord Jesus instituted the Twelve who went out together to the service of all. 878 – The sacramental nature of ecclesial ministry has a personal character. Christ’s ministers act in communion with one another, but they always act in a personal way as well. 879 – Sacramental ministry in the Church is a service exercise in the name of Christ. It has a personal character and a collegial form.

Our Second Reading from St. Paul’s letter to the Romans is quite short, but as is ever the case with Holy Scripture it contains a central message which is quite important to us. One of the ongoing challenges of being Catholic and Christian in today’s society is that society, cultural norms, sometimes seem to work against our efforts to live as followers and disciples of Christ.

Paul sums up that struggle succinctly as he says, “Do not conform yourselves to this age, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and pleasing and perfect.” Paul offers two suggestions in terms of combating the temptation to conform and agree.

First, he calls for a “renewal” of our minds. Often in today’s society the standard opinion is that it is feelings, how we feel, that are most important. Living in that way ignores the mind approach. Second, if we do try to sort things out intellectually we can only be successful in God’s eyes if we seek truth. The question we must pose to ourselves and to which we need to seek a conclusion is not “How do I feel?” or even “What do I think?” The important question for us is “What is true and what does God’s Word say?”

The philosopher and author C. S. Lewis defined truth simply when he wrote: “No philosophical theory which I have yet come across is a radical improvement on the words of Genesis, that ‘…in the beginning God made heaven and earth’.” www.catholicsteward.com

Accepting New Patients

“What page, what passage of the inspired books of the Old and New Testaments is not the truest of guides for human life?” ~Saint Benedict, from the Rule of Saint Benedict (73:3)

“At the end of life we will not be judged by how many diplomas we have received, how much money we have made, how many great things we have done. We will be judged

by "I was hungry, and you gave me something to eat, I was naked and you clothed me. I was homeless, and you took me in.” ~Saint Teresa of Calcutta (Mother Teresa)

Monday, September 4 ~ Twenty-Second Week in Ordinary Time ~ Labor Day ~

Holy Gospel: Luke 4:16-30 Jesus came to Nazareth, where he had grown up, and went according to his

custom into the synagogue on the Sabbath day. He stood up to read and was handed a scroll of the

prophet Isaiah. He unrolled the scroll and found the passage where it was written: The Spirit of the Lord is

upon me, because he has anointed me to bring glad tidings to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim

liberty to captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free, and to proclaim a year

acceptable to the Lord. Rolling up the scroll, he handed it back to the attendant and sat down, and the

eyes of all in the synagogue looked intently at him. He said to them, “Today this Scripture passage is

fulfilled in your hearing.” And all spoke highly of him and were amazed at the gracious words that came

from his mouth. They also asked, “Is this not the son of Joseph?” He said to them, “Surely you will quote

me this proverb, ‘Physician, cure yourself,’ and say, ‘Do here in your native place the things that we heard

were done in Capernaum.’” And he said, “Amen, I say to you, no prophet is accepted in his own native

place. Indeed, I tell you, there were many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah when the sky was closed

for three and a half years and a severe famine spread over the entire land. It was to none of these that

Elijah was sent, but only to a widow in Zarephath in the land of Sidon. Again, there were many lepers in

Israel during the time of Elisha the prophet; yet not one of them was cleansed, but only Naam’an the

Syrian.” When the people in the synagogue heard this, they were all filled with fury. They rose up, drove

him out of the town, and led him to the brow of the hill on which their town had been built, to hurl him

down headlong. But he passed through the midst of them and went away.

Meditation: It was customary for Jesus to go weekly to the synagogue to worship and on occasion to

read the scriptures and comment on them to the people. His hometown folks listened with great attention

on this occasion because they had heard about the miracles he had performed in other towns. Jesus

startled them with a seeming rebuke that no prophet or servant of God can receive honor among his own

people. He then angered them when he complimented the gentiles who seemed to have shown more faith

in God than the “chosen ones” of Israel. They regarded gentiles as “fuel for the fires of hell.” Jesus' praise

for “outsiders” caused them offence because they were blind-sighted to God's mercy and plan of

redemption for all nations.

Prayer: O God, Creator of all things, who have commanded the human race to bear the burden of labor,

grant that the work we are beginning may progress in this life and, by your favor, advance the spread of

the Kingdom of Christ. Who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God for ever and

ever. Amen.

Contemplation: The word “gospel” literally means “good news.” Isaiah had prophesied that the Messiah

would come in the power of the Holy Spirit to bring freedom to those oppressed by sin and evil (see Isaiah

61:1-2). Jesus came to set people free from the worst tyranny possible – the tyranny of slavery to sin and

the fear of death, and the destruction of both body and soul. God's power alone can save us from

emptiness and poverty of spirit, from confusion and error, and from the fear of death and hopelessness.

The gospel of salvation is “good news” for us today. Do you know the joy and freedom of the gospel?

Tuesday, September 5 ~ Twenty-Second Week in Ordinary Time

Saint Teresa of Calcutta (Mother Teresa), Religious

Holy Gospel: Luke 4:31-37 Jesus went down to Capernaum, a town of Galilee. He taught them on the

Sabbath, and they were astonished at his teaching because he spoke with authority. In the synagogue

there was a man with the spirit of an unclean demon, and he cried out in a loud voice, “What have you to

do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are – the Holy One of God!”

Jesus rebuked him and said, “Be quiet! Come out of him!” Then the demon threw the man down in front

of them and came out of him without doing him any harm. They were all amazed and said to one another,

“What is there about his word? For with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and they

come out.” And news of him spread everywhere in the surrounding region.

Meditation: When Jesus spoke he needed no authorities to back his statements. He was authority

incarnate – the Word of God made flesh. When he spoke, God spoke. When he commanded even the

demons obeyed. If demons, the fallen angels, believe in the power and authority of the Son of God, how

much more should we believe in the power and authority of the gospel – the good news of Jesus Christ –

with the full assent of our minds and hearts and entrust our lives to the Lord Jesus Christ? If we approach

God's word submissively, with an eagerness to do everything the Lord desires, we are in a much better

position to learn what God wants to teach us through his word.

Prayer: O God, who called Saint Teresa to respond to the love of your Son thirsting on the cross with

outstanding charity to the poorest of the poor, grant us, we beseech you, by her intercession, to minister

to Christ in his suffering brothers. Through our Lord Jesus Christ your Son who lives and reigns with you

and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Prayer seeking the intercession of Saint Teresa of Calcutta: Jesus, you made Saint Teresa an

inspiring example of firm faith and burning charity, an extraordinary witness to the way of spiritual

childhood, and a great and esteemed teacher of the value and dignity of every human life. Grant that she

may be venerated and imitated as one of the Church's canonized saints. Hear the requests of all those

who seek her intercession, especially the petition I now implore... (mention here the favor you wish to

pray for). May we follow her example in heeding Your cry of thirst from the Cross and joyfully loving You

in the distressing disguise of the poorest of the poor, especially those most unloved and unwanted. We

ask this in Your name and through the intercession of Mary, Your Mother and the Mother of us all. Amen.

Contemplation: When you read or hear the word of God how do you respond to it? Do you hear it with

indifference, selective submission, or with the full assent of faith and obedience? When Jesus taught he

spoke with authority. He spoke the word of God as no one had spoken it before. When the Rabbis taught

they supported their statements with quotes from other authorities. The prophets spoke with delegated

authority – “Thus says the Lord.” If we approach God's word submissively, with an eagerness to do

everything the Lord desires, we are in a much better position to learn what God wants to teach us through

his word. Are you eager to be taught by the Lord and to conform your life according to his word?

Wednesday, September 6 ~ Twenty-Second Week in Ordinary Time

Holy Gospel: Luke 4:38-44 After Jesus left the synagogue, he entered the house of Simon. Simon’s

mother-in-law was afflicted with a severe fever, and they interceded with him about her. He stood over

her, rebuked the fever, and it left her. She got up immediately and waited on them. At sunset, all who had

people sick with various diseases brought them to him. He laid his hands on each of them and cured

them. And demons also came out from many, shouting, “You are the Son of God.” But he rebuked them

and did not allow them to speak because they knew that he was the Christ. At daybreak, Jesus left and

went to a deserted place. The crowds went looking for him, and when they came to him, they tried to

prevent him from leaving them. But he said to them, “To the other towns also I must proclaim the good

news of the Kingdom of God, because for this purpose I have been sent.” And he was preaching in the

synagogues of Judea.

Meditation: Who do you take your troubles to? Jesus' disciples freely brought their troubles to him

because they found him ready and able to deal with any difficulty, affliction, or sickness which they

encountered. When Simon Peter brought Jesus to his home for the Sabbath meal (right after Jesus

preached in the synagogue in Capernaum), his mother-in-law was instantly healed because Jesus heard

Simon's prayer. Jesus could not avoid drawing a crowd wherever he went. No one who asked Jesus for

help was left disappointed. Jesus' numerous healings and exorcisims demonstrated the power and

authority of his word, the “good news of the kingdom of God.”

Prayer: God of might, giver of every good gift, put into our hearts the love of your name, so that, by

deepening our sense of reverence, and, by your watchful care, keep safe what you have nurtured.

Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one

God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Contemplation: Have you noticed that Jesus always puts human need ahead of everything else? His

compassion showed the depths of God's love and concern for all who are truly needy. Jesus gave the

people the word of God and he healed them physically as well as spiritually. We can never intrude upon

God nor exhaust his generosity and kindness. He is ever ready to give to those who earnestly seek him

out. Do you allow Jesus to be the Lord and Healer in your personal life, family, and community? Approach

him with expectant faith. God's healing power restores us not only to health but to active service and care

of others. There is no trouble he does not want to help us with and there is no bondage he can't set us

free from. Do you take your troubles to him with expectant faith that he will help you?

Thursday, September 7 ~ Twenty-Second Week in Ordinary Time

Holy Gospel: Luke 5:1-11 While the crowd was pressing in on Jesus and listening to the word of God, he

was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret. He saw two boats there alongside the lake; the fishermen had

disembarked and were washing their nets. Getting into one of the boats, the one belonging to Simon, he

asked him to put out a short distance from the shore. Then he sat down and taught the crowds from the

boat. After he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into deep water and lower your nets for a

catch.” Simon said in reply, “Master, we have worked hard all night and have caught nothing, but at your

command I will lower the nets.” When they had done this, they caught a great number of fish and their

nets were tearing. They signaled to their partners in the other boat to come to help them. They came and

filled both boats so that the boats were in danger of sinking. When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at the

knees of Jesus and said, “Depart from me, Lord, for I am a sinful man.” For astonishment at the catch of

fish they had made seized him and all those with him, and likewise James and John, the sons of Zebedee,

who were partners of Simon. Jesus said to Simon, “Do not be afraid; from now on you will be catching

men.” When they brought their boats to the shore, they left everything and followed him.

Meditation: God chooses ordinary people, like you and me, as his ambassadors and he uses the ordinary

circumstances of our daily lives and work situations to draw others into his kingdom. Jesus speaks the

same message to us today: we will “catch people” for the kingdom of God if we allow the light of Jesus

Christ to shine through us. God wants others to see the light of Christ in us in the way we live, speak, and

witness the joy of the gospel. Saint Paul the Apostles says: “But thanks be to God, who in Christ Jesus

always leads us in triumph, and through us spreads the fragrance of the knowledge of him everywhere.

For we are the aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are

perishing” (2 Cor. 2:15).

Prayer: God of might, giver of every good gift, put into our hearts the love of your name, so that, by

deepening our sense of reverence, and, by your watchful care, keep safe what you have nurtured.

Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one

God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Contemplation: This incident tells us an important truth about how God works in and through each of us

for his glory. God expects of us greater things than we can do by ourselves. When we cooperate in his

works, we accomplish far beyond what we can do on our own. Saint Therese of Lisieuxonce wrote: “Jesus

has so incomprehensible a love for us that he wills that we have a share with him in the salvation of souls.

He wills to do nothing without us. The Creator of the universe awaits the prayer of a poor little soul to

save other souls redeemed like it at the price of all his Blood.” Do you live the gospel to those around you

– neighbors, co-workers, relatives, students – to help them grow in the knowledge of his truths and love?

Friday, September 8 ~ Twenty-Second Week in Ordinary Time

Feast of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary

Holy Gospel: Matthew 1:1-16,18-23 The Book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the

son of Abraham. Abraham became the father of Isaac, Isaac the father of Jacob, Jacob the father of Judah

and his brothers. Judah became the father of Perez and Zerah, whose mother was Tamar. Perez became

the father of Hezron, Hezron the father of Ram, Ram the father of Amminadab. Amminadab became the

father of Nahshon, Nahshon the father of Salmon, Salmon the father of Boaz, whose mother was Rahab.

Boaz became the father of Obed, whose mother was Ruth. Obed became the father of Jesse, Jesse the

father of David the king.

David became the father of Solomon, whose mother had been the wife of Uriah. Solomon became the

father of Rehoboam, Rehoboam the father of Abijah, Abijah the father of Asaph. Asaph became the father

of Jehoshaphat, Jehoshaphat the father of Joram, Joram the father of Uzziah. Uzziah became the father of

Jotham, Jotham the father of Ahaz, Ahaz the father of Hezekiah. Hezekiah became the father of

Manasseh, Manasseh the father of Amos, Amos the father of Josiah. Josiah became the father of Jechoniah

and his brothers at the time of the Babylonian exile.

After the Babylonian exile, Jechoniah became the father of Shealtiel, Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel,

Zerubbabel the father of Abiud. Abiud became the father of Eliakim, Eliakim the father of Azor, Azor the

father of Zadok. Zadok became the father of Achim, Achim the father of Eliud, Eliud the father of Eleazar.

Eleazar became the father of Matthan, Matthan the father of Jacob, Jacob the father of Joseph, the

husband of Mary. Of her was born Jesus who is called the Christ.

This is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about. When his mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, but

before they lived together, she was found with child through the Holy Spirit. Joseph her husband, since he

was a righteous man, yet unwilling to expose her to shame, decided to divorce her quietly. Such was his

intention when, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph, son of David,

do not be afraid to take Mary your wife into your home. For it is through the Holy Spirit that this child has

been conceived in her. She will bear a son and you are to name him Jesus, because he will save his people

from their sins.” All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: Behold, the virgin

shall be with child and bear a son, and they shall name him Emmanuel, which means “God is with us.”

Meditation: Understandably many ask the question: “What is the significance of the genealogy in

Matthew's gospel?” This genealogy is arranged in three sections portraying three great stages in the

spiritual history of the people of the old covenant. The first stage begins with Abraham, the father of the

chosen people, and ends with David, God's anointed King. The second stage takes us to the exile of God's

people in Babylon. This is the period of Israel's shame and disaster due to her unfaithfulness. The third

stage takes us to Jesus, God's anointed Messiah. Jesus the Messiah is the direct descent of Abraham and

David, and the rightful heir to David's throne. God in his mercy fulfilled his promises to Abraham and to

David that he would send a Savior and a King to rule over the house of Israel and to deliver them from

their enemies. Jesus is the fulfillment of all God's promises. He is the hope not only for the people of the

Old Covenant but for all nations as well. Afterall, Jesus is the Savior of the world.

Prayer: Impart to your servants, we pray, O Lord, the gift of heavenly grace, that the feast of the Nativity

of the Blessed Virgin may bring deeper peace to those for whom the birth of her Son was the dawning of

salvation. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy

Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Contemplation: Matthew begins his gospel with the genealogy of Jesus from Abraham's lineage through

the line of David, King of Israel. Matthew concludes his genealogy by stating that both Mary, Jesus'

mother and Joseph, his foster father, came from the line of David. Mary was asked to assume in faith a

burden of tremendous responsibility. That required faith and trust. Also, Mary was not yet married. Sexual

relations outside of marriage (fornication) was a sinful act then, and remains so today. Mary was only

espoused to Joseph, and such an engagement had to last for a whole year. She was asked to assume a

great risk. She could have been rejected by Joseph, by her family, by all her own people. Mary knew that

Joseph and her family would not understand without revelation from God. She nonetheless believed and

trusted in God's promises. Joseph, a just and God-fearing man, believed the message given to him to take

Mary as his wife and to accept the child in her womb as the promised Messiah. Like Mary, Joseph is a

model of faith for us. He is a faithful witness and servant of God's unfolding plan of redemption. Are you

willing to trust and obey the Lord as Mary and Joseph did?
