Dedication of the Lateran Basilica Genesis 28:11-18 Psalm 84 1 Corinthians 3:9c-13, 16-17 Luke 19:1-10 St. John Lateran Basilica is the oldest of Rome’s major basilicas and is the cathedral church of the pope, the bishop of Rome. Originally a mansion of a wealthy Roman family, it was acquired by Constantine and gifted to the church, becoming the residence of the pope. In the fourth century it was dedicated to the Savior, and later popes dedicated it to John the Baptist (10th century) and John the Evangelist (12th century). Jacob’s dream at Luz reveals to him that he is in “the house of God” (Gn 28:17), “Bethel” in Hebrew. The Lord renews the promises made to Abraham by promising Jacob land, descendants, and blessings. A new promise is also offered in light of Jacob’s fleeing to another land: protection from his enemies. His vision of a “stairway” (v 12) with “messengers [angels] … going up and down” reminds him of God’s presence among the people. Paul writes that as people of faith, each of us is a “temple of God,? … that the Spirit of God dwells in” (v 16). God dwells not just in buildings of brick and mortar but also in our hearts. As members of God’s household, we are called to be living stones building up the body of Christ, the church. In Luke’s Gospel, Zacchaeus seeks out Jesus, whose response to Zacchaeus’ initiative is to invite himself to stay at the tax collectors house. He who “has come to seek / and to save what was lost” (v 10) has found one of the lost in Zacchaeus. The grumbling of the bystanders shows that they do not understand Jesus’ mission. God desires to dwell with all people, not just the righteous. Zacchaeus’s response to Jesus illustrates that “salvation has come to this house” (v 9). For reflection: Is my image of church more about buildings or people? Has my understanding of the church as the body of Christ changed over the years? We are still accepting registrations from students currently in 8th grade through 12th grade to attend our Catholic Heart WorkCamp mission. The mission trip will take place June 21st—June 27th.

Así que empieza orando por quienes estan más cerca de ti. Son las personas más fáciles de recordar. Orar por nuestros seres queridos es "una dulce obligación" 2. El siguiente dedo es el índice. Ora por quienes enseñan, instruyen y sanan. Esto incluye a los maestros, profesores, médicos y sacerdotes. Ellos necesitan apoyo y sabiduría para indicar la dirección correcta a los demás. Tenlos siempre presentes en tus oraciones. 3. El siguiente dedo es el más alto. Nos recuerda a nuestros líderes. Ora por el presidente, los congresistas, los empresarios, y los gerentes. Estas personas dirigen los destinos de nuestra patria y guían a la opinión pública. Necesitan la guía de Dios. 4. El cuarto dedo es nuestro dedo anular. Aunque a muchos les sorprenda, es nuestro dedo más débil, como te lo puede decir cualquier profesor de piano. Debe recordarnos orar por los más débiles, con muchos problemas o postrados por las enfermedades. Necesitan tus oraciones de día y de noche. Nunca será demasiado lo que ores por ellos. También debe invitarnos a orar por los matrimonios. 5.Y por último está nuestro dedo meñique, el más pequeño de todos los dedos, que es como debemos vernos ante Dios y los demás. Como dice la Biblia "los últimos serán los primeros". Tu meñique debe recordarte orar por tí. Cuando ya hayas orado por los otros cuatro grupos verás tus propias necesidades en la perspectiva correcta, y podrás orar mejor por las tuyas.

PRAYING PACEM IN TERRIS: Moreover, a ruling authority is indispensable to civil society. That is a fact which follows from the moral order itself. Such authority, therefore, cannot be misdirected against the moral order. It would immediately cease to exit, being deprived of its whole raison d'être. God Himself warns us of this: "Hear, therefore, ye kings, and understand: learn, ye that are judges of the ends of the earth. Give ear, you that rule the people, and that please yourselves in multitudes of nations. For power is given you by the Lord, and strength by the Most High, who will examine your works, and search out your thoughts." And lastly one must bear in mind that, even when it regulates the relations between States, authority must be exercised for the promotion of the common good. That is the primary reason for its existence. (83-84) Excerpt of Saint John XXIII’s Pacem in Terris Provided by Justice & Peace Ministries, Archdiocese of Atlanta BACKPACK WEEKEND FOOD PROGRAM This week at Edge, we will spend time learning about the biblical character of Ruth and her example of friendship. We will talk about the importance of being a good friend and ways that we can honor God by being a good friend to those around us. If there are qualities of a good friend that you recognize in your middle school youth, this would be a great opportunity to affirm them. Here are some questions to ask your child after Edge. x Why is Ruth one on the great women of the Bible? What does her story teach us? x What do you think is the most important trait to have in a best friend? x Who do you consider your best friend? What is something you appreciate about them? x Who is someone that you have a hard time being a good friend to? Why is that? What is one thing you could do to be an example of Christ-like love to them this week? Did you know that some children in our community go home from school on weekends with very little food at home? A Gift of Love Services , through the BACKPACK FOOD PROGRAM, furnishes approximately 100 needy children two meals a day, plus snacks for the weekend (or for the holidays when they are out of school). Through your donations, 3 children will be sponsored. Items needed on continual basis: Pop tarts Soup Canned chicken or tuna Saltines Hot & Cold single servings of cereal Chips Fruit cups Beanie Weenies Juice boxes Pudding snacks Applesauce Mac & Cheese Cheese or Peanut Butter Crackers Milk Boxes (non refrigerated) Items that children can prepare themselves Donations can be left in a labeled container in the lobby.

St. Francis Table was started in response to the fact that there was a need for food for the hungry on Saturday. While various churches oīered food during the week, there was no food program running on Saturday. St. Francis Table began operaƟon on Holy Saturday, April 10, 1982 during the period when Franciscans Friars staīed the Catholic Shrine of the Immaculate ConcepƟon in Atlanta. The name, St. Francis Table originated with the Franciscans who live their lives in imitaƟon of St. Francis of Assisi. Today Currently, St. Francis Table feeds 300 to over 500 people every Saturday. The only requirement for the people to be fed, is that they are hungry. THAT IS WHERE YOU COME IN... Currently, St. John Vianney has seven groups that volunteer one Saturday each month to work at the St. Francis Table. You can volunteer with one group and it will work out that you support the St. Francis Table twice each year. You can join more teams and volunteer more oŌen… your call. When you join a team, the team leader will contact you with the meeƟng Ɵme at SJV, usually it is around 5:30AM. You will travel to the Shrine of the Immaculate ConcepƟon in Atlanta. You will make sandwiches and make soup with donaƟons that have been provided by local restaurants. The guests are invited in at 10AM. They enter through the door located on the MarƟn Luther King Boulevard side of the Shrine. They each receive a meat and cheese sandwich, bowl, cup, spoon and napkin. AŌer they are seated, the volunteers serve the soup from large pitchers. Each person is fed unƟl they have their Įll, they leave through the door on the parking lot side of the church and as they leave through the parking lot door they are given desserts. AŌer each group leaves, the next group is let in. The kitchen stays open and serves soup and sandwiches unƟl 12:00 noon when clean up begins. We help with clean up and then travel back to SJV. We usually arrive by 1:30PM. Volunteers can be teen through adult! Interested in volunteering: Contact Sharon Loiselle to join a team.
