September 12-13
What does Comprehensive Youth Ministry look like here?
From the USCCB’s document, Renewing the Vision:
“The ministry of prayer and worship with adolescents has several distinct dimensions that provide direction to comprehensive ministry efforts by promoting the authentic participation of youth in liturgy. We do this by incorporating the
world of young people into worship…encouraging those
who preach to use current examples involving youth in
liturgical ministries… allowing music and song to express
the vitality of young
people… provide visual aids to encourage young people's
participation, and explore the appropriate use of multimedia at liturgy…and focusing on the hospitality provided at
liturgy… Through immersion in the symbols, stories, and
rituals of the communal prayer life, our youth gain not only
a knowledge but an appreciation of the power of the
sacraments.
BEGINNING TODAY, SEPTEMBER 13, OUR 6PM LITURGY
WILL FOCUS ON MEETING THE DISTINCT NEEDS OF
OUR YOUTH AND YOUNG ADULTS! INVITE A YOUTH OR
YOUNG ADULT WHO IS NOT CURRENTLY CONNECTED
TO A FAITH COMMUNITY TO JOIN US!”

Reflecting on God’s Word
Going to the school of Jesus was not always easy for the disciples.
Beginning with this event, Jesus begins to educate them about what
it means to be his disciple. He starts with the basics: Who he is. Like a
good teacher, he engages them in a discussion, asking two questions,
going from the easier one to the more demanding one: Who do others
say I am? Who do you say I am?
The first question gets a quick answer, but the second one gets only
Peter’s response. By saying “You are the Christ” (Mark 8:29), Peter
was naming Jesus as the long-awaited Anointed One, the one who
would come to restore Israel’s political kingdom and overthrow the
Romans. But this was not to be. Jesus counters Peter by speaking of
himself as the Son of Man who must suffer, be rejected, be killed, and
then rise after three days.
Peter is aghast at this and places himself in front of Jesus so that Jesus
has to tell him to get behind him. Peter is blocking his way, like an
obstacle, a stumbling block, an adversary (Satan), preventing Jesus
from going in the direction he is heading. Peter had learned about
a Messiah of power and prestige and Jesus was talking about a Man
of pain and punishment. Peter wanted a political Messiah, not a
suffering one. Peter saw the disciples taking part in the pomp and
pageantry of a new age, and Jesus was speaking of denying oneself
and picking up a cross.
But graduating from the school of Jesus means moving out of our
comfort zone into a distressful district: a place where we take up the
cross of self-denial and self-sacrifice. Of course, it all depends on how
we answer his question: Who do you say that I am?
