TODAY’S READINGS
First Reading — They took Jeremiah and
threw him into the cistern
(Jeremiah 38:4-6, 8-10).
Psalm — Lord, come to my aid! (Psalm 40).
Second Reading — Let us keep our eyes
fixed on Jesus, the leader and perfecter of
faith (Hebrews 12:1-4).
Gospel — I have come to set the earth on fire,
and how I wish it were already blazing
(Luke 12:49-53).

THE COSTS OF DISCIPLESHIP
Today’s responsorial psalm, Psalm 40, is more familiar to us
with the refrain “Here am I, Lord.” This “Here am I” is Jeremiah’s
great prophetic response to God’s call. But today’s story of
Jeremiah and the refrain “Lord, come to my aid!” remind us that
there are always two sides to following the call of God. The author
of the Letter to the Hebrews knew this, too. He reminded his
readers that even weighted down with burdens and sins, we can still
persevere by keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus, who himself knew
the shame and pain of the cross, but saw beyond it to the joy of
sitting at the right of the throne of God.
Jesus himself gave the disciples a “sneak preview” of a baptism
that would not be as wondrous as the one in the Jordan that
inaugurated his ministry, but would be one of fire and anguish.
Today’s words from scripture may not be terribly soothing, but in
their honesty and strength we can acknowledge the difficulties of
daily discipleship, and take comfort in the assurance of our own
salvation in Christ.

del Tiempo Ordinario
LECTURAS DE HOY
Primera lectura — El pr ofeta del Señor sufre peligros y deshonra para proclamar el no
grato mensaje de Dios para la ciudad
(Jeremías 38:4-6, 8-10).
Salmo — Señor, date prisa en socorrerme!
(Salmo 40 [39])
Segunda lectura — No te desanimes.
Persevera en la lucha igual que Cristo soportó
la cruz (Hebreos 12:1-4).
Evangelio — J esús vino a pur ificar la tier r a
con su santo fuego y a sembrar división y no
paz (Lucas 12:49-53).

EL COSTO DE SER DISCÍPULO
El Salmo responsorial de hoy, Salmo 40 (39), nos es muy
familiar por el refrán “Señor, date prisa en socorrerme”. La historia
de Jeremías hoy y el refrán “¡Señor, date prisa en socorrerme!” nos
recuerda que siempre hay dos caminos para seguir el llamado de
Dios. El autor de la Carta a los Hebreos también lo sabía. Él
recordaba a sus lectores que aunque nos agobien desgracias y
pecados, podemos todavía perseverar si mantenemos nuestros ojos
fijos en Jesús, quien también conoció la vergüenza y el dolor de la
cruz, pero vio más allá del sufrimiento, el gozo de sentarse a la
derecha del trono de Dios.
Jesús mismo dio a sus discípulos una “idea” de un bautismo que
no sería tan maravilloso como el del Jordán que inauguró su
ministerio, sino de fuego y angustia. Las palabras de la Sagrada
Escritura hoy pueden no ser terriblemente apaciguadoras, pero en su
honestidad y fortaleza podemos reconocer las dificultades que el
discípulo enfrenta a diario, y consolarnos por la seguridad de nuestra
salvación en Cristo.

Give it up for
Mercy Challenge
The Goal is to raise $5,000.00
For what you ask?
Our Good Samaritan Fund
What is the Good Samaritan Fund you ask?
The fund allows us to help those in need of Emergency
shelter for one or two nights.
Emergency utility assistance, allowing them to keep the lights,
gas or water on.
Gas cards and food cards
Individuals and families come to us in need all of the time.
Please Help us Help Them
So please join the challenge.
How can you participate?
Give up one item per day and place the money you would
have spent on that item into your
Give it up for Mercy container. Pick one up at the Give it up
for Mercy table .
For example I will give up my first morning cup of coffee
that’s $2.00 a day X 31= $62.00
Now if everyone gave just that $2.00 a day ,all we would need
to meet our goal is for only 80 of us to participate.
Now the challenge . My daughter told me she is going to
give up $5.00 per day = $155
(Not Being Competitive at all). I will now be giving up 3 cups
of coffee a day= $186
(how much coffee do I drink a day? (You don’t want to know)
So challenge each other is to what your commitment is and let
us know when you pick up your container…
Any questions please call Carolyn Hite

I am very grateful for the generous gifts of prayer, talents and
financial support that you share with our parish family
throughout the year. We are fortunate that many of our
parishioners respond with such generosity to the needs of our
faith community.
At present we have received $87,948 (258 donors) in pledges
toward our target of $81,800! Your gift will assist us in
reaching this request.
The DDF serves many people in ways that we, as an
individual parish, could not do. Social service ministries and
religious education for both youth and adults provide
continuity in our lifelong pursuit of a closer relationship
with God.
Please consider making a pledge in support of this effort.
Your gift is very important. May God continue to bless each
one of us and our faith community family.
