The Eighteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
BARNS FILLED WITH RICHES
The mortgage is paid off. So are the loans that were taken out for college tuition and children’s
weddings. The second home that was once a far-off dream is now so close that it seems safe to dig out the
real estate magazines. And then . . . a daughter or son can no longer take care of a child. It’s time to start
over, this time as grandparents in the parents’ role. Thousands of older adults face this situation today, becoming temporary or permanent guardians of their grandchildren.
Vanity of vanities. The years of toil with sights set on a great reward now belong to someone else:
food, clothing, braces, summer camps, and school tuition.
But, as one grandmother said of her 13-year-old granddaughter, Megan, “It has all been worth it. She brings such joy.
What would I do without her?”
And so the barns filled with “riches” are again taken down and new and true riches are discovered. Once again a new
self is found in Christ, and the storehouse is filled with life that is truly pleasing to God. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
GRANEROS LLENOS DE BIENES
Ya pagamos la hipoteca. Y también los préstamos que se tomaron para el pago de la universidad y las bodas de los hijos. La segunda casa, que una vez fue un sueño lejano está ahora tan cerca que sería recomendable empezar a revisar las revistas
de bienes raíces. Y en ese momento. . . un hijo o una hija no puede atender a su propio hijo. Es entonces tiempo de volver a empezar, esta vez como abuelos en el rol de padres. Miles de adultos mayores se enfrentan hoy a esa situación, y se convierten en
tutores temporales o permanentes de sus nietos.
Vanidad de vanidades. Los años de trabajo arduo con miras a una gran jubilación hoy pertenecen a
alguien más: comida, ropa, ortodoncia, campamentos, escolaridades.
Pero, como dijo una abuela de su nieta de 13 años, “Todo ha valido la pena. Ella me da una enorme
alegría. ¿Qué haría yo sin ella?”
Y así el granero lleno de “bienes” se vacía y descubrimos nuevas y verdaderas riquezas. Otra vez
encontramos nueva vida en Cristo, y el almacén se llena de la vida que realmente agrada a Dios.

NOT YOUR ORDINARY
BIBLE STUDY!.........
Our Little Rock Scripture study will be
adding a new feature to its study this
August. On Thursday evening, August
22nd at 7pm in Renehan Hall, we will be reading
Rediscovering Catholicism by Matthew Kelly. This
book was our Christmas gift last year from Fr. Olin and it
is truly one that should be opened and read if not shared
with everyone you know! If you do not have the book, and
would like to get a copy to join us in this study, the cost is
$3 per book. After this 6 week course, we will begin our
Scripture study on the Gospel of Matthew! The cost of
this study is $15 for the materials.
We also are offering the same study on Wednesday
mornings, beginning August 21st at 9:30am. Since that
group already read, Rediscovering Catholicism, we will
begin with the book, Rhythm of Life by Matthew Kelly.
You can purchase that book on your own or call me and I
will purchase multiple copies together at $10 per book.
Let me know ASAP if you want to join us. After this study,
we will continue with our scripture study on the Gospel
of Matthew as well. We are called to be a light to the
world. Slow down and take the time to be that light.

Shelly Smith at 661-252-4683.
