Twenty Second Sunday in Ordinary Time
Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,
The Week Ahead
A bulletin article of “Thank you’s!”
Please allow me to express my deepest gratitude and
thanks to all who donated their time, material, or
resources in any way to our school “face lift” project on
rd
Saturday, September 3 . This was a huge effort where
many people from the entire parish were involved to
provide some seriously needed attention to our school
building before religious education classes begin. It is a
beautiful and edifying expression of our communion in
and love of Christ when volunteers across the parish
step-up to help and work together on a project. As your
shepherd, I can think of fewer more beautiful
expressions of our common faith when projects like this
happen. In my prayers of thanksgiving for all who
helped on this project, I could not help but recall the
words of Psalm 133: “Behold how good and how
pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity.” A
special “Thank you” to Kathy Beutler, chair of our
Finance Council, who directed and coordinated this
undertaking. THANK YOU one and all!!!
Mon – Fri: Morning Prayer 7:30 a.m.; Daily Mass 8:00 am
Update on Youth Group and Confirmation
Another round of “Thank you’s!” is owed to three
individuals who have stepped-up to help coordinate out
Youth Group and Confirmation programs. I am very
pleased to announce that Garret Wolfard and Kristina
Fessler have agreed to direct our Youth Group
program for the next few months until I hope to hire a
Youth Minister & Director of Religious Education in
January. Garret and Kristina bring a vitality and vigor to
youth ministry which I am confident will be beneficial to
our program. They are also preparing for their wedding
in October, and so I am doubly grateful to them for
saying “yes” at this busy and exciting time in their life.
Please keep them in your prayers.
Also, I am very grateful to Don Kelley for volunteering
to direct our Confirmation program for the coming year.
Don has previously helped direct youth ministry here at
St. Paul’s and currently helps with our RCIA program
and our once-a-month children’s liturgy at the 10:30 am
Mass. Don, too, is a busy individual and so I am very
grateful for his own “yes” to assist in preparing our
youth to receive the sacrament of Confirmation next
Spring.
I am still on the lookout for someone to help direct our
th th
6 -8 grade youth program. More on this in the coming
weeks…
Again, THANK YOU to all who volunteer their time,
treasure, and talent at St. Paul Catholic Church. May
Christ the Lord shower His choicest blessings upon
you!
-Fr. Basil

St. Paul Parishioners
Christ did not promise an easy life. Those who
desire comforts have dialed the wrong number.
Rather, he shows us the way to great things,
the good, towards an authentic human life.

Estimados hermanos y hermanas en Cristo,
Este artículo del boletín es para darles "Gracias." Quiero que me permitan expresar mi más profunda gratitud y
agradecimiento a todos los que donaron su tiempo, material o recursos, a nuestro proyecto de limpieza "Lifting"
del edificio de la escuela parroquial, el sábado 3 de septiembre. Esto fue un gran esfuerzo para todas las
personas de la parroquia que participaron y para toda la parroquia entera. Esto es proporcionar la atención
necesaria a nuestro edificio de la escuela antes de que comiencen las clases de educación religiosa. Es una
expresión hermosa y edificante de nuestra comunión y del amor de Cristo, cuando voluntarios a través de la
parroquia ayudan y trabajar juntos en un proyecto de la Iglesia. Como su pastor, puedo pensar acerca de sus
expresiones más hermosas de nuestra fe común cuando los proyectos suceden como este. Ofrezco mis
oraciones de acción de gracias para todos los que ayudaron en este proyecto, y quiero hacerlo recordando las
palabras de este salmo 133: "He aquí que bueno y tan delicioso es para los hermanos morar juntos en
unidad". "Gracias especiales" también a Kathy Beutler, Presidente de nuestro Consejo de Administración,
quien coordino y dirigió esta actividad. “MUCHAS GRACIAS” a cada uno y a todos los que ayudaron.
ACTUALIZACION DEL GRUPO DE JOVENES Y EL DE LA CONFIERACION.
Otra ronda de "Gracias!" se debe a tres personas que se han intensificado para coordinar programas de
confirmación y grupo juvenil. Me complace anunciar que Garret Wolfard y Kristina Fessler han aceptado dirigir
nuestro programa de jóvenes en Ingles para los próximos meses hasta contratar a un ministro de jóvenes y
Director de educación religiosa en Enero. Garret y Kristina aportan una vitalidad y vigor al ministerio de la
juventud que estoy seguro será beneficioso para nuestro programa. Ellos se están preparando para su boda en
octubre, y estoy doblemente agradecido a ellos por decir "sí" en este momento importante y ocupado de su
vida. Por favor, oremos por ellos para que dios les de sabiduría en lo que hagan. También, estoy muy
agradecido a Don Kelley por aceptar ser voluntario para dirigir nuestro programa de confirmación para el
próximo año. Don Kelley, ha ayudado anteriormente con el ministerio juvenil de aquí de nuestra Parroquia St.
Pablo y actualmente ayuda también con nuestro programa de RICA y la liturgia Misa de las 10:30am.
Pido a Dios muchas bendiciones para todos ustedes.
En Cristo
P. Basilio
REFLEXION
A Jesús no le agradan las actitudes recelosas ni las decisiones a medias. Prefiere que cada ser humano manifieste lo que siente, piensa y
vive, sin remilgos. Alaba a las personas de una sola pieza que se presentan con la verdad por delante aunque su realidad existencial sea
amarga. A estas personas les cabe la posibilidad de ser curadas, de señalarles nuevos caminos, de ofrecerles atractivas posibilidades de
superación.
En el evangelio de hoy, Jesús fustiga a los que le siguen por curiosidad, a los que buscan el propio beneficio, a los que caminan
ciegamente tras la multitud, a los que les agrada lo espectacular, a los que siempre van de la mano del poder...
El ofrecimiento que Jesús hace a la multitud que le sigue, muy poco tiene que ver con el beneficio o la conveniencia. Los que quieren estar
cerca de Jesús y ser discípulos suyos, tienen que dejarlo TODO: familia, bienes materiales, deseos de poder, ambiciones elevadas, lazos
que les aten. Únicamente, una cosa tienen que llevar consigo sin dudarlo ni un solo momento: la propia CRUZ.
Muchos se sienten decepcionados y se quedan fuera del camino. Otros siguen adelante, a ver si Jesús cambia de opinión. Otros
interpretan sus palabras de forma equivocada; prefieren pensar que no le han entendido. Y, la verdad, es que las expresiones de Jesús no
inducen a equivoco alguno. Hay que cargar la propia cruz: carácter, defectos, obligaciones, familia, trabajo, desencantos, frustraciones...
Para seguir a Jesús, hay que alejarse de la multitud.
Para seguir a Jesús, hay que estar siempre en camino.
Para seguir a Jesús, hay que dejar que Él nos guíe
Para seguir a Jesús, hay que renunciar a muchas cosas.
Para seguir a Jesús, hay que negarse a uno mismo.
Para seguir a Jesús, hay que poner freno a las pasiones.
Para seguir a Jesús, hay que asumir los propios deberes.
Para seguir a Jesús, hay que ser fieles al Evangelio.
Para seguir a Jesús, hay que pedir fuerzas al Espíritu.
Para seguir a Jesús, hay que vivir en comunidad de fe.
El seguimiento de Jesús exige constancia. Es un buen momento para recordar las promesas que le hicimos a Jesús cuando recibimos el sacramento de la
Confirmación, revivir los propósitos que con tanto fervor declaramos en aquel retiro que creíamos definitivo en nuestra vida, tener en cuenta las
repetidas decisiones que hemos tomado a lo largo de nuestra vida y que se han difuminado como una nuble vaporosa. Hay que tomar decisiones. Es
preciso responder a la llamada de Cristo. Ya es hora de tomar la propia cruz y seguir a Cristo sin condiciones. Sin demoras. Sin indecisiones.
Solo de verdad.
