ASSOCIATE PASTOR’S MESSAGE 3
I n the Gospel this Sunday, our Blessed Lord uses parables to teach about the kingdom of heaven. The kingdom of God or the kingdom of heaven is a recurrent theme in the Gospels. When we pray the Our Father, we pray “Thy kingdom come.” Since we pray for the coming
of God’s kingdom and it is a part of the Gospel message, we can ask what is the kingdom of God or the kingdom of heaven? There are three levels of meaning to the kingdom of heaven: the kingdom of nature, the kingdom of grace, and the kingdom of glory. God rules or governs each level.
In the Profession of Faith we say, “I believe in one God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible.” With these words, we acknowledge God as the creator of all that exists. God needed “no pre-existent thing or any help in order to create” (CCC 296). “God creates freely ‘out of noth-ing’” (CCC 296). But God didn’t just create the universe and then leave it to itself. God “not only gives” created things “being and existence, but also, and at every moment, upholds and sustains them in being” (CCC 301). So, “God creat-ed the universe and keeps it in existence” (CCC 320). By His divine providence, God “works also through the actions of creatures” (CCC 323). “Divine providence consists of the dispositions by which God guides all His creatures with wisdom and love to their ultimate end” (CCC 321). At the level of the kingdom of nature we see that: 1) God is creator of all things, 2) God keeps things in existence, and 3) God governs creation through natural physical laws.
Human beings have a privileged place in God’s creation: “To human beings God grants the ability to cooper-ate freely with his plans” (CCC 323). With our intellect and will, we are made in the image and likeness of God. We have the capacity to know and to love. By the choices we make and the actions we take, we give expression to what we love. While we should love God above all things, original sin has wounded our human nature. Left to ourselves, we could not love God as we should. We need help to love rightly. By His grace, God goes beyond the natural course of things and directs and aides us in this life so that we attain eternal life. But, we have to cooperate with God’s grace. We must freely allow God to rule and govern our lives, trusting that He desires what is truly best for us. While we are subject to God in the kingdom of nature simply because He created us, we must choose to be a part of the kingdom of grace. We pray for this in the Our Father when we say, “thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” We commit to doing the will of God.
The kingdom of glory is found in heaven. The path to the kingdom of glory is through the kingdom of grace. It is important that we ask for the grace we need and that we cooperate with that grace.
God Bless Fr. Richard A. Yevchak, IVE
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name;
thy kingdom come, thy will be done
on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.

PHÚC ÂM: Mt 13, 24-30 {hoặc 24-43} Tin Mừng Chúa Giêsu Kitô theo Thánh Matthêu. Khi ấy, Chúa Giêsu phán một dụ ngôn khác cùng dân chúng rằng: "Nước trời giống như người kia gieo giống tốt trong ruộng mình. Trong lúc mọi người ngủ, thì kẻ thù của ông đến gieo cỏ lùng vào ngay giữa lúa, rồi đi mất. Khi lúa lớn lên và trổ bông thì cỏ lùng cũng lộ ra. Đầy tớ chủ nhà đến nói với ông rằng: 'Thưa ông, thế ông đã không gieo giống tốt trong ruộng ông sao? Vậy cỏ lùng từ đâu mà có?' Ông đáp: 'Người thù của ta đã làm như thế'. Đầy tớ nói với chủ: 'Nếu ông bằng lòng, chúng tôi xin đi nhổ cỏ'. Chủ nhà đáp: 'Không được, kẻo khi nhổ cỏ lùng, các anh lại nhổ luôn cả lúa chăng. Hãy cứ để cả hai mọc lên cho đến mùa gặt. Và đến mùa, ta sẽ dặn thợ gặt: "Các anh hãy nhổ cỏ lùng trước, rồi bó lại từng bó mà đốt đi, sau mới thu lúa lại chất vào lẫm cho ta". {Người lại nói với họ dụ ngôn khác mà rằng: "Nước trời giống như hạt cải người kia gieo trong ruộng mình. Hạt đó bé nhỏ hơn mọi thứ hạt giống, nhưng khi mọc lên, thì lớn hơn mọi thứ rau cỏ, rồi thành cây, đến nỗi chim trời đến nương náu nơi ngành nó". Người lại nói với họ một dụ ngôn khác nữa mà rằng: "Nước trời giống như men người đàn bà kia lấy đem trộn vào ba đấu bột, cho đến khi bột dậy men". Chúa Giêsu dùng dụ ngôn mà phán những điều ấy với dân chúng. Người không phán điều gì với họ mà không dùng dụ ngôn, để ứng nghiệm lời tiên tri đã chép rằng: "Ta sẽ mở miệng nói lời dụ ngôn, Ta sẽ tỏ ra những điều bí nhiệm từ lúc dựng nên thế gian". Sau khi giải tán dân chúng, Người trở về nhà. Các môn đệ đến gặp Người và thưa rằng: "Xin Thầy giải thích dụ ngôn cỏ lùng trong ruộng cho chúng con nghe". Người đáp rằng: "Kẻ gieo giống tốt là Con Người. Ruộng là thế gian. Còn hạt giống tốt là con cái Nước trời. Cỏ lùng là con cái gian ác. Kẻ thù gieo cỏ lùng là ma quỷ. Mùa gặt là ngày tận thế. Thợ gặt là các thiên thần. Cũng như người ta thu lấy cỏ lùng, rồi thiêu đốt trong lửa thế nào, thì ngày tận thế cũng sẽ xảy ra như vậy: Con Người sẽ sai các thiên thần đi thu tất cả gương xấu và mọi kẻ làm điều gian ác khỏi nước Chúa, rồi ném tất cả chúng vào lửa: ở đó sẽ phải khóc lóc nghiến răng. Bấy giờ kẻ lành sẽ sáng chói như mặt trời trong Nước của Cha mình. Ai có tai để nghe thì hãy nghe".} Đó là lời Chúa.

Faith Formation Beth Shank
Catechesis of the Good Shepherd
Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is a Faith For-mation program that has been available at our parish since October 2009. It is a way of religious formation for children that is quite different from published programs. It does not use a catechetical series of text books or take place in a classroom, taking the presen-tations (curriculum) from the resources of the Holy Bible, Catechism of the Catholic Church, 50+ years of observation and working with children from Sofia Cavalletti that has been handed down through the gen-erations, and many good Catholic History resources.
The focus of the program is to deepen the child’s existing relationship with God; to encourage the formation of a personal prayer life; to participate fully in the liturgical and sacramental life of the Church; and to develop a deeper understanding of Catholic identity and tradition.
Atrium times are as follows:
Monday 3:30pm - 5:00pm: • Level I Ages 3-6 • Level II Ages 7-9 (1st - 3rd grade)
• Level III Ages 10-12 (4th - 6th grade) OPENING THIS FALL!
Wednesday 6:00pm - 7:10pm (Community Closing Prayer follows in Church)
• Level I Ages 4 - Kindergarten
Spaces are limited, so to reserve your child’s space or to view and learn more about the Atrium contact Beth Shank in the parish office.

WHY SHOULD MY TEEN GO
“My parents kind of forced me kind of against my will- I was kind of open to trying it out, but not so much… which is why I’m all for parents making kids go to holy stuff…totally changed my life….don’t remember all the words so much the speakers spoke, but I remem-ber the faces of the people on the stages…there was a light and life to the full that shown from the speak-ers. Jesus said ‘I came so we might have life to the full’ and I saw something within them that I could de-scribe as life to the full. I didn’t understand it, but I wanted it Witnessing that totally changed my life.” ~Chris Stefanick

XVI DOMINGO DEL TIEMPO ORDINARIO 23 DE JULIO 2017
LA MISERICORDIA, EL PODER Y EL AMOR DE DIOS La primera lectura de hoy, del libro de la Sabiduría, va al punto una y otra vez, ¡al menos cinco veces en cin-co versículos! Dios es poderoso, pero compasivo con todos. La fuerza de Dios se muestra en la bondad y la clemencia, no en la aspereza o la condenación, y quienes gobiernan al pueblo de Dios deben gobernar de igual manera, con bondad. Esta amorosa bondad y delicadeza no son contrarios al poder de Dios, sino directo resultado de la primacía de Dios sobre todo. ¿Quiénes somos no-sotros, entonces, para juzgar el corazón de nuestros her-manos cristianos y a toda la gente, cuando Dios ordena justicia con amor y clemencia? De igual manera, el Espíritu Santo suple nuestra ig-norancia de lo que necesitamos, hablando en un lenguaje que no comprendemos todavía. Pero Dios conoce nues-tras necesidades antes que nosotros, entiende las interce-siones del Espíritu, y nos ayuda en nuestra necesidad. Esta es nuestra esperanza: la misericordia, el poder y el amor de Dios. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.
