A MESSAGE FROM YOUR PASTOR
We are told today that Jesus teaches with authority and we know that his authority
comes from God. Let's face it, most of us do not like authority- it is usually seen as something that
stifles us and restricts us. Left on our own, we want to do what we want. However, submitting to
Jesus' authority is what makes us disciples. He has the authority to teach, to remove unclean spirits,
to forgive sins and to restore life. All that Jesus does is part of God's plan to restore humanity's
broken relationship with him.
Do we really believe that Jesus can work in our lives? He has the power to remove those things
that keep us from being the person God wants us to be. He has the power to rid us of the demons of
useless worry and anxiety that St. Paul speaks about today. God has given Jesus power and
authority over all things. When we trust in that authority and in his love for us, he can help us to be
free to serve him as true disciples.
In Christ,
Msgr. Emery

Stewardship Reflections
“Brothers and sisters: I should like you to be
free of anxieties.” – 1Corinthians 7:32
How much anxiety do we bring upon ourselves
by constantly worrying about not having
enough or attaining more things? God won’t
necessarily give you everything you want, but
he will provide everything you need. Try this –
use the word “pray” instead of the word “worry”
in the future.
Reflections on the Catechism
“Calling the Disciples”
2173 The Gospel reports many incidents
when Jesus was accused of violating the
Sabbath law. But Jesus never fails to respect
the holiness of this day. He gives this law its
authentic and authoritative interpretation: “The
Sabbath was made for man, not man for the
Sabbath.” With compassion, Christ declares
the Sabbath for doing good rather than harm,
for saving life rather than killing. The Sabbath
is the day of the Lord of mercies and a day to
honor God. “The Son of Man is lord even of
the Sabbath”
(Mary Jane Tannen 13th of the Month Club)
