Twenty-Sixth Sunday In Ordinary Time
St. Michael Church
Newark, New York
To our Friends at St. Michael’s Parish:
Please accept my most heartfelt
thanks for your generous donation to
Catholic Charities of Wayne County in
the amount of $1,879.98 received from
your second collection taken up in the
parish recently. I am most grateful for the opportunity Fr.
Felix provided me to serve with him at Mass and to speak
with all of you in August about the many ways we serve in
our community.
Our agency operates gratefully through the thoughtful
gifts of generous churches and donors and we are very appreciative of your support of the many advocacy and outreach programs we are privileged to provide. Your generosity will help us counsel, clothe, and comfort people struggling under the burden of their everyday life challenges.
Our ability to help would not be what it is today without the
generosity of communities like St. Michael’s.
We are grateful for the opportunities you provide us to be
of service to our brothers and sisters in need. Please accept
my personal thanks for this kind gift, and my best wishes for
a blessed and joyful autumn season.
In gratitude!

Autumn Prayer
O God of Creation, you have blessed us
with the changing of the seasons.
As we embrace these autumn months,
may the earlier setting of the sun remind
us to take time to rest.
May the crunch of the leaves beneath our feet
remind us of the brevity of this earthly life.
May the steam of our breath in the cool air remind
us that it is you who give us your breath of life.
May the scurrying of the squirrels and the
migration of the birds remind us that you
call us to follow our will.
We praise you for your goodness
forever and ever.
Amen.
Familia: Cuna de la Iglesia
Recientemente yo estaba hablando con algunos padres
de familia y yo compartí con ellos que por medio de la
familia adquirimos nuestra identidad personal, cultural y
religiosa. Piénselo. Nuestro padre y nuestra madre, nuestros abuelos y hermanos nos mostraron tanto cariño y
compartieron enseñanzas. Mis padres me besaban y me
abrazaban; yo supe que me amaban. Ellos jugaron conmigo y me llevaban a paseos. Mi formación como persona
empezó cuando yo era una niña. En mi familia empecé a
conocer a Dios por medio de mis padres. Me hablaban de
Dios y me enseñaron a orar y alabar a Dios y a dar gracias
a Dios. Ellos, en el lenguaje de la Iglesia, estaban evangelizándome. Llegué a saber algo de Jesucristo por medio
de ellos. Sí, es en la familia donde la Iglesia debe nacer.
Tantas veces comparto esta verdad con los padres que
desean bautizar a sus hijos.
Hay que creer en Dios y acudir a Dios en los momentos
difíciles y alegres. Ese amor que un niño recibe de sus
padres puede ayudarle tener una imagen de nuestro Dios
de amor. Padres, son ustedes que son los primeros educadores de sus hijos; son ustedes que comparten el conocimiento de la fe y los ayudan a adquirir valores necesarios
para la vida cristiana. Su ejemplo de vida es el modo más
efectivo de enseñar. Cuando yo era más joven yo escuchaba, “La familia que ora junta se queda junta.” Hay
mucho de verdad en eso; hay que dar gracias a Dios por
sus bendiciones, buscando fuerza, pidiendo consejos, pidiendo perdón y pidiendo por las necesidades de otros.
Cada miembro de la familia puede hacer su oración espontáneamente. Padres, acepten su responsabilidad de evangelizar; profesen su fe en Dios por medio de la Misa con
su familia y por los otros sacramentos. Actúen según los
valores del evangelio; ayuden a sus hijos desarrollar su
espiritualidad sencilla reconociendo la presencia de Dios
de tantas maneras y diariamente. Celebren la vida con
gozo: cumpleaños, nacimientos, bodas, amistades, fiestas,
etc. Comparten historias y el lugar de Dios en ellas. Den
la bienvenida y ayuda a los necesitados y sufrientes. Sean
personas de paz; eviten acciones violentas. Obren justamente, tratando a otros con respeto, evitando discriminación. Perdónense unos a otros; dejen atrás los resentimientos para hacer la paz con otros. Los hijos llegan a
creer que a pesar de todo, ustedes y Dios los quieren.
Los hijos primero van a encontrar a Dios en su iglesia
doméstica—en su propio hogar; más adelante van a confirmar su membrecía en la Iglesia universal, y espero que
van a querer participar activamente en ella. Primero, padres, ustedes tienen que cumplir su tarea.

Martes, 29 de sept., 7:00 p. m.: Reflexión bíblica en la
capilla. Traigan sus biblias. (Libro gracioso del A.T.)
St. Michael Church
Newark, New York
Dear Parish Family,
In today’s Gospel reading from Mark, Jesus is talking
about removing body parts to prevent ourselves from
sinning! Yikes! Could you imagine everyone walking
around with a hand, foot, or eye missing? Yes, I said
everyone, because none of us are without sin. But, is
that what Jesus literally means, to remove a body
part if we used it as part of our sin? I don’t think so!
I believe Jesus is exaggerating to get his point
across. Being physically whole doesn’t do us any good
if we go around sinning and setting a bad example for
the “little ones” mentioned in the Gospel.
This coming week, take some time to think about the
example you set to others. Do you act in ways or
make choices that you would want friends, family, or
little children to follow in your footsteps? If you do,
make every effort to replace those actions and
choices with those you and Jesus would be proud of.
Go celebrate the sacrament of Reconciliation and
decide to make every effort in following Jesus more
closely. We all stumble and sin in life, but God gives
us forgiveness if we are just sincere about changing
our ways and ask for God’s forgiveness.
Have a blessed week.
Peace and love to all, June
