STEWARDSHIP BY THE BOOK / ADMINISTRACIÓN SEGÚN “EL LIBRO”
In today’s second reading, St. Paul tells the Romans, “God’s gifts and his call
are irrevocable.” To what is God calling me today? What gifts are mine to
share? (See Romans 11:29)
En la segunda lectura de hoy, San Pablo dice a los Romanos: “Los regalos
de Dios y Su llamado son irrevocables.” ¿Para que me esta llamando Dios
hoy? ¿Cuáles son los dones que tengo yo para compartir? (Ver Romanos
11:29)

2014 ARCHBISHOP’S ANNUAL APPEAL
WHY PRAY?
Update: This past weekend, we received Archbishop’s
Annual Appeal contributions in the amount of $779.00.
When added to previous donations, it gives us a total of
$21,244.00, which is about 91% of our total goal amount
of $23,400.00. Pledge envelopes can be returned to the
Church second collection basket or the Parish Rectory.
OLG Mission has a goal amount of $4,500.00. So far, we
have received a total of $1,032.00.
The “foreigners” as Isaiah calls them, the “Gentiles” as
Paul calls them, or the “Canaanites” as Matthew calls
them are called to worship the one true God in prayer.
As we listen to today’s readings, perhaps we are tempted
to ask: Why pray? The question is rhetorical; it is tantamount to asking why should friends talk to one another or
people in love kiss one another. Prayer is a way of relating
to God, a way of talking to God. The apostles had the
opportunity to talk to Jesus in the flesh. We have the
opportunity to talk to Jesus Christ in prayer. Our relationship with him must be enthusiastic; it cannot be fainthearted. John Donne, a fifteenth-century poet, knew what
the qualities of good prayer were. Donne asks God to treat
him differently from most Christians. The poet does not
want God to merely “knock, breathe, shine, and seek to
mend,” but also to “break, blow, burn, and make me
new” (Holy Sonnets, XIV).

■GENERAL
It takes a dynamic faith on our part to come to God in
prayer. As Jesus once said, “Knock and the door will be
opened to you” (Matthew 7:7). It may take pounding the
door down, but if we are as persistent as the woman in
today’s Gospel, the results will follow.
