MISA EN ESPAÑOL
The process for developing a pastoral plan for Our Lady of the Lake as requested by Bishop McKnight in his Better Together initiative has been completed. Today I had the pleasure of submitting the pastoral plan of Our Lady of the Lake to the Diocese. Our plan, and the plans of all the other parishes in the Diocese, will form the base of a diocesan-wide pastoral plan that will go into effect this Advent.
While the diocesan process has been underway for almost a year, our parish has already been involved in a jounrey of planning for the future through the work we put into developing our long range plan. The discernment that took place last summer and fall have been invaluable to me as I developed our specific plan in response to Bishop McKnight’s three pillars of pastoral planning: a spirituality of stewardship, the co-responsibility of the laity and the clergy, and the parish as a center of mercy and charity.
In the coming weeks I will publish the details of each activity our parish will emphasize in the coming months and even years as we put our pastoral plan into action, especially
BISHOP’S MONTHLY PRAYER INTENTION
For our parish and school commu-nities, that we may be bound by a spirit of unity to work together for the common good during the
pandemic.
Por nuestras comunidades parro-quiales y escolares, para que
estemos regidos por un espiritu de unidad para trabajar juntos por el bien común durante la pandemia.

as we will respond to our problem identification process and the Lenten discernment groups. There are three major activities, each of which embodies one of the pillars of the Diocesan initiative. To these three, I have taken the liberty to add a fourth point, especially in response to the Church’s call to a new era of evangelization, as recently outlined in the Congregation for the Clergy’s document on parishes as centers of evangelization.
Activity One: The parish will form a Stewardship Commission to assume the same type of leadership role currently enjoyed by the existing five commissions of the parish. (Stewardship)

Dear Friends in Christ,We are still facing a time in history
that will always be monumental, challenging our courage, straining our finances, endangering our families and our very way of life. When God is placed first in our lives, we will tackle this moment with bravery and purpose. Human beings are instilled with an innate desire to know God. That makes sense when you consider the fact that God is our Father in every sense of the word. My Lord did not want our family to go through the horror of losing a child, no more than my earthly father did! Both cried with us. I know my Lord will never abandon me because I know Him personally and know that He cares deeply about the current state of our world.
You may hear that God is sending retribution for our sins, or that His plan will ‘put people in their place,’ or silence some portion of society and any number of conjectures to answer ‘why.’ Blame is a reflection of bias; good or bad, according to our heart. But to whom do we choose
EDUCATION COMMISSIONChair: Linda Adams
to listen? Our hearts can deal with anything if we are in a personal conversation with God; conversing means expressing your thoughts and listening for His. There is plenty of blame to go around for our current strife and consequences of Covid 19, but that is hindsight, not foresight. Each of us is a Child of God, whether we believe it or not, and until we realize today’s blessings, His grace, and look forward to the blessings of tomorrow, we have jeopardized a personal relationship with God. St John Vianney said, “Grace my children, is a supernatural assistance which leads us to good.”
Embrace the Grace through a child. Children inherently know God. Take a child by the hand and together count your blessings. Do nothing else except acknowledge those gifts, beginning with your own existence. Then, just TRY not to smile. Try to NOT be grateful. I dare you to NOT feel His love and grace. Then, if you feel like sharing, let me know what happens!
Blessings and Prayers to All!
Getting Closer to God
To All The Children Of Our Parish: Take the hand of someone in your family, and together count the blessings in your life. Here is a checklist to get you started:
1. Thank you for my mom and dad.2. Thank you for my brother(s) and sister(s). List all their names.3. Thank you for my grandparents. List their names4. Thank you for the times I can eat ________________! My favorite food.5. Thank you for my teachers. List their names.6. Thank you for my aunts and uncles. List their names.7. Thank you for my best friends. List their names.8. Thank you for my pet(s). List their names.9. My favorite thing to wear is _______________.10. My favorite place to visit is ________________.11. Don’t forget Msgr Makarewicz!

St. Nicholas Academy is a supportive living experience for boys from families that are under-resourced who want to give their sons every opportunity to succeed in school and life. St. Nick’s partners with families and St. Peter Interparish School to provide this opportunity. St. Nick’s is seeking Christian, married couples or single individuals who are willing to be part of a pool of relief parents.

Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil; May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; And do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host, by the divine power of God, thrust into hell Satan and all evil spirits who wander through the world for the ruin of souls. Amen
Then a cloud covers everything. In scriptural imagery this clearly speaks of the presence of God the Spirit. From within the cloud comes a voice, which can only be the voice of God Himself: “This is my Son, the Beloved. Listen to him.”
This is now the endorsement of the Father Himself for Jesus. As Jesus asked the Apostles one day, “Who do people say the Son of Man is”, they are now being told to listen very carefully, since Jesus, as Son, speaks with the voice of God.
“Listen to him,” is the confirmation and the endorsement from God our Father of the real identity of Jesus.
Yes, we too need to listen to everything that Jesus says both by his words and his actions.
The Transfiguration is the supreme endorsement of God the Son by God the Father, and it is a special moment of encouragement from God the Holy Spirit that Jesus will carry us through any difficult and/or Blessed days ahead.
Blessings – Dcn Jim

How many times in the Gospel’s has the trinity of the God the Father, God the Son – Jesus, and God the Holy Spirit appeared? If you said two, you would be correct.
The first time is when Jesus was baptized. As Jesus, God the Son, was being baptized, God the Holy Spirit descended upon Jesus like a dove, and God the Father said – “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.” (Mt 3:17)
The second time is when Jesus was transfigured on a mountain where his face shone like the sun and his garments became white as light. Suddenly a bright cloud, God the Holy Spirit, overshadowed him and a voice form the cloud, God the Father said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased; listen to him.”
This Thursday, 6 August 2020, is The Transfiguration of the Lord. Again, it is when Jesus took Peter, James, and John up to a Mountain where he was transfigured along with having Moses and Elijah appear talking with Jesus.
Note the similarity of the two where God the Father said, “This is my beloved son with whom I am well pleased” in each. During the trans-figuration, however, God the Father went on to say, …listen to him”. What is the meaning with God the Father saying this?
The three apostles: Peter, James, and John, see Jesus as they have never seen him before – in dazzling glory. What else did they see? They saw, on either side of Jesus, Elijah and Moses talking with Jesus. Moses represents the Law while Elijah represents the tradition of all prophets. Between them they are the summation of all God’s revelations to his people and they are endorsing Jesus as the continuation of that tradition. The new covenant!

FRIDAY ADORATION
Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament is available every Friday from 8:30 AM to 4:00 PM.
All others are invited to attend Adoration anytime throughout the day. If you are able to commit to a regular weekly time slot on Fridays, please contact Debbie Noland or the office.
The goal is to have at least three persons committed to a period of adoration so that if there are occasions when someone can’t make it, there will always be someone present. If you foresee not being able to attend during your committed hour, please contact the others who have signed up for that period to ensure that someone is there.

FUN FROM THE WEBSITE continued from front coverActivity Two: The Social Concerns
Commission, under the leadership of Deacon Jim Hankins, will take the lead in our parish’s growth as a center of mercy and charity. (Mercy and Charity)
Activity Three: The pastor will work with the chairs of the five existing commissions in the devel-opment, chartering, and staffing of a Parish Pastoral Council. (Co-respon-sibility of Laity and Clergy)
Activity Four: The parish will embrace pastoral conversion in the service of the evangelizing mission of the Church, especially in evange-lization of the youth and young families. (Evangelization)
The month of August will be a great opportunity for all of us to think through the implications of the plan, especially how to integrate our existing pastoral and spiritual activities into the timeline of the plan. The commissions will each have an opportunity to reflect on the plan especially in how each commission can bring its resources to these activates. Finally, and most important, we will invite the partic-ipation of all our parishioners in the planned activities as we have a formal event to mark the official promulgation of the plan in October.
I feel so blessed by God at this time to be part of such a holy process. Bishop McKnight’s vision has been a tremendous help to me, particularly during this time of crisis with the pandemic. The entire process has made it easier for me to focus on the essentials of parish life and recommit my ministry to evangelization. I look forward to leading the parish into the future, knowing that the Holy Spirit has already lit the way through the prayerful discernment and willing cooperation of the parishioners of Our Lady of the Lake Catholic Church.
Made for More will be held Sept. 15, 7-9:30 p.m. in the Cathedral. Tickets are limited due to social distancing. Purchase tickets at http://corproject.
