through the summer.

As we now come to the end of our look at the idea of confessing our faith, we have seen in the Scriptures, the teachings of the saints, and will now see in the Catechism the importance of this type of confession. Early on when I introduced this topic as an aspect of mercy, I admitted that:

For this and a host of other reasons, people are often not willing to talk about their faith. The bottom line is that they don’t want to be attacked on any level. It’s easier to keep ones faith to ones self. We simply go along to get along.

The point of all of this is that this type of thinking is contrary to what a living faith should be. Early on in the Catechism we read the following about confessing our faith: “the confession of faith finds its proper place in the celebration of worship. Grace, the fruit of the sacraments, is the irreplaceable condition for Christian living, just as participation in the Church’s Liturgy requires faith. If faith is not expressed in works, it is dead (cf. Jas 2:14–16) and cannot bear fruit unto eternal life.” No one is going to make the faith alive for others unless the Body of Christ makes this commitment. Long before the Catechism discusses sacramental confession of sins, the focus of discussion is confession as an aspect of living faith. “Those who belong to Christ through faith and Baptism must confess their baptismal faith before men.” Later in the discussion of the Creeds, the Catechism says the following: “Communion in faith needs a common language of faith, normative for all and uniting all in the same confession of faith. ” The point in all of this is to show that the two fold confession we make as believers is nothing new in the faith. How are we going to make our faith alive for others unless we actually do it. This is why our ability to speak about the faith is as important as our confession of those things that hinder us from living the life of faith. This type of language may sound new to many cradle Catholics. However, if one examines ones own heritage, most of us who consistently seek to live our faith will see in those that passed it on to us a commitment and resolve that expressed a living faith rooted in action that confessed faith in the ordinary things of life. The difference for us is that contemporary culture needs voices for the proclamation of the Gospel. The world around us today has changed. No longer do our homes have a consistent sense of Catholic or even Christian culture. The secular world permeates our beliefs with a host of ideas that have nothing to do with the Gospel. In fact, the shrill and loud voices of the common culture proclaim ideas that are part of a belief system that at its roots suggest anything can go because I say so. On this level of discussion, truth is in the eye of the beholder. People can believe this sort of thing but it has nothing to do with Christianity. In fact it may even be contrary to Christianity.

This is why our Confession of Faith needs to begin with truth not of human origin but of Divine revelation. For us that starts with confession of our sins, but also of the faith that empowers us to see something the secular world wants to deny. They want to deny the sovereignty of God. For people of faith though, this is not an option.

May the Lord continue to bless these children abundantly!

From the Pastor’s Desk

Religion Classes for K-5 and Middle School are now on summer break for June, July and August

Religious Education Registration - Registration for all of our children’s and youth religious education programs is underway for 2016-2017. Forms and FAQs are available via the parish website, the parish office, or from the welcome desk in the Narthex. We are also able to prepare children with special learning needs to receive the sacraments. Please call Lisa Nueslein, our program director, for assistance or questions. The Archdiocesan Religion Curriculum Guide may be viewed at http://adw.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/ReligiousEducationCurriculumGuide.pdf. Vacation Bible Camp (VBC) - VBC has been a tradition at St. Paul parish for many years. It takes many many volunteers to offer this week-long summer program (workers are not paid for giving their time for this week.) Unfortunately, we were not able to recruit the volunteer base that would be needed to offer a program this summer. So, Saint Paul parish will not be offering VBC this summer. However, the good news is that one of our parishioners has volunteered to coordinate VBC for the summer of 2017. And we are beginning the planning process now! Our first planning meeting will be coming up soon. Please join us if you are able to contribute time and talent to our VBC for the summer of 2017. You may contact Margaret Kenny to discuss how you might support this program (there is lots of pre work to do as well as work to do during the week of the event.) Margaret may be reached at [email protected]. Reminder for Families of Candidates being

confirmed Sept 11, 2016 - If your student still hasn’t fulfilled the requirements of our program, please see the website listed below to access a guide to completing all missed requirements. Over the summer students should be finishing their Social Justict Outreach Reflection and Acts of the Apostles self-directed bible study. ALSO: Now that your teen is a rising high school freshman, be sure to check out

our upcoming events for St Paul Youth Group this

summer and as the new school year begins in Sept.

Health Care Ministry - As the temperatures rise during the Summer heat related illnesses can escalate rapidly. There are several heat related illnesses, including heat stroke (most severe), heat exhaustion and heat cramps. All age groups and pets are affected. To avoid problems occurring, stay ultra hydrated. Water is good but Gatorade is better to replace salt and retain fluid. Keep a watchful eye out for warning signs. Cramping, especially in the leg, is a sign the body is losing salt and electrolytes. cramping and light sweating leads to heavier, profuse sweating, lightheaded, maybe nausea. When this happens your body stops sweating and can no longer cool itself. This is a medical emergency, call 9-1-1. When the body loses excessive salt and water heat exhaustion happens. People who work outdoors and athletes are susceptible. Symptoms include severe thirst, fatigue, headache, nausea, dizziness, clammy skin. Uncontrolled heat exhaustion can lead to heat stroke. Treat the victim quickly. Move them to shade or air conditioned area, give them water or a cool nonalcoholic drink, and apply wet towels or have them take a cool shower. Heat cramps are muscle spasms usually affecting the legs or abdominal muscles often after physical activity. Sit or lie down in the shade, drink cool water or a sports drink, stretch affected muscles, seek medical attention if you have heart problems or if the cramps do not get better in an hour. The best way to avoid heat related problems is to limit outdoor exposure during hot days. Air conditioning is the best way to cool off. Drink more liquids that you think you need, avoid alcohol, wear loose lightweight clothing and a hat, replace salt lost from sweating by drinking a fruit juice or sports drink, avoid the outdoors during the hottest part of the day, wear sunscreen, pace yourself when you run or exert your body. For more information see: www.nsc.org, cdc.org and www.nih.

SUMMER STORMS PREPAREDNESS

Neighbor Helping Neighbor - Every year, people are killed or seriously injured by severe weather. What you can and should do during a severe summer storm to help those in your neighborhood who are disabled, homebound, elderly, or unable to assist themselves due to a medical condition: Check on neighbors with difficulties during power outages/extreme heat. Assist with yard clean-up. Offer to go replace food loss due to power outage for the elderly/homebound and less fortunate neighbors, assist with relocation to a safe place if needed. Our parish communities are measured by how they serve

“the least of these” in our parish and beyond its

boundaries - the hungry, the homeless, the sick, those in

prison , the stranger (cf. Mt 25:31).

Witness to Life Mass and Procession - “A great prayer for life is urgently needed, a prayer which will

Please bring donations for the Capitol Hill Pregnancy Center (diapers, onesies, baby blankets and sleepers). The Papal Fiat will be present to collect them before Mass (please arrive at 9:45am)!

Archdiocesan Prayer for

The Year of Mercy

Almighty God and Father, You have created all things and know

the desire of every heart. In this Year of Mercy, we reflect on your

great love for us, and

acknowledge our sinfulness and

need for your healing mercy. Trusting that you never tire of forgiving us,

we open our hearts to receive your

forgiveness and love. Having encountered you, Mercy itself,

and guided by the Holy Spirit, may we witness to the love

we have received by sharing it

with those most in need: the hungry,

the homeless, the afflicted, and the oppressed. We ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.
