Family Perspectives

By Bud Ozar

If we want to be happy at home we

must commit (“lose ourselves”) to

our family. If we try to be

independent from others (“save

ourselves”) we end up lonely and

alone. Happiness is found in

commitments. The gospel is true:

We save our life by losing it!

Marriage Moments

www.Susan Vogt.net

Are you in a “mixed marriage”? Often

this term has been used fr Catholic/

Non-Catholic marriages but it could

mean mixed races, mixed classes,

mixed ethnicities, or even mixed

technology (PC vs MAC). How has

your life been enriched by the

difference our spouse brings?

Parenting Pointers

www.Susan Vogt.net

Twenty years ago, on September 11,

2001, terrorists attacked NYC and

Washington DC. How old were you?

If your children are old enough, share

your experience of how you felt. Are

there things that frighten them

today? Remember that brave people

in one of the 4 planes sacrificed their

own lives to save unknown future

victims.

The Church of St. Peter�

Saratoga Springs, New York�

September 12, 2021�

Please remember in your prayers all those members of our parish family who are sick or suffering in any

way, all those in hospitals or nursing homes, and all our shut ins. We pray for all those who have died recently.

Let us not forget the victims of violence at home and abroad.

We remember the men and women serving in the armed forces and their families along with all

first responders and health care workers during these extraordinary times, as we continue to pray for

peace and resolutions to worldwide disease and unrest.

A Word from Pope Francis

You may know all the command-

ments, all the prophesies, all the truths of

the faith, but if this isn’t put into practice,

is not translated into works, it serves

nothing.

A faith without works, a faith that doesn’t get you

involved, isn’t faith. It words and nothing more

than words.

Homily, February 21, 2014

Lord,

I am grateful for the gift of faith.

Help me to practice what

I believe in my heart.

From Faithful Meditations for Every Day

in Ordinary Time, Rev. Warren Savage &

MaryAnn McSweeny

Catechetical Sunday

September 19th, 2021�

“Say the Word and My Soul Shall Be Healed”�

�

This day gives us an opportunity to reflect

on the role that each person plays, by virtue

of Baptism, in handing on the faith and

being a witness to the Gospel.

Those whose vocation it is to serve as catechist

will be called forth to be commissioned for their ministry

during Mass.

A special blessing will be offered during the 9 a.m.

Mass for those called to be Catechists for our

� young people.��

� Are you interested in a Bible

study covering the entire Bible in

chronological order over a year? We will

read 3 or 4 chapters a day along with weekly meet-

ings for discussion. Reading the Bible in the order

that events actually occurred makes it more clear

and highlights connections between the Old and

New Testaments.

If you are interested, please e mail

Deacon Brian at [email protected]

After a long hiatus, we’ve begun having servers

during our Masses. If you were an altar server before the

pandemic and would be interested in returning to this

ministry, or if you would like to get a start,

contact Tillman Nechtman at

[email protected]

First Communion are eligible.�
