The Gospel tells us “This is my beloved Son. Listen to him.” By “listening” we are able to live the gospel. Gospel living is something so simple as taking the time to listen to those who need to spill out their hearts when seeking help. Through your gift to the Society of St. Vincent de Paul you enable the members of the Society to become a “listening heart” to the hungry, the homeless and the struggling poor.

GOD’S WORK We are so busy! Most of us have more than one job to do, and we never seem to have enough time. We are workers, volunteers, parents, friends, and most of us are more than one thing at a time. But which of these is the work of God? We seldom view our ordinary work as being the work of God. We may think that we have to be ministers or priests, missionaries or charity workers, engaged full-time in works formally identified as being “God’s work.” But everything we do with a faithful heart and with love for others is God’s work. We each have our own role to fill in the world, and many gifts are necessary. We cannot always see the direct connection of our daily work to the plan of God. But we trust and we believe that God leads us to do what is needed, where it is needed. What is “God’s work?” “This is the work of God, that you believe in the one he sent” (John 6:29).

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION Customs surrounding wedding rites are often in tension with our liturgical tradition. Sometimes practices are almost forced on engaged couples. Anyone who has ever planned a wedding knows how quickly the invoices expand. A hundred dollars here, a hundred there, often for non‑essentials, when more deeply traditional practices, like an expression of charity for the poor, fall by the wayside. One such practice often labeled as “deeply traditional” is the aisle runner for the bride. Actually, the American tradition is to clean our church buildings, in contrast to European village churches, which often had dirt or cobblestone floors. There, a band of linen (rented) or a carpet of flowers might be set in place for a bridal party. Here, plastic roll‑ups are procured and positioned by the ushers for the bride’s entrance. The problems are many, not the least of which is that there is no “bride’s entrance” in our official liturgy. Another is that in a wedding Mass, the communicants have to navigate the treacherous aisle with the sometimes-slippery runner. The aisle runner is neither a treasure nor a tradition, and by omitting it, the couple who asks for canned goods for the poor to be brought to church at their wedding Mass will find an extra hundred dollars or so for the cause!

REFLECTING ON GOD’S WORD Unlike mortals, angels do not die. Nor do they need to eat or drink. Without corruptible bodies, they live eternally with God. But the psalm for today describes the manna that the Israelites ate in the desert as “the bread of angels” (78:25). As the first reading tells us, it seemed to them that it came down from heaven every night. Through the manna, God gave them life when death seemed imminent. Through the manna, their faith in God’s eternal care for them was revived. In the case of the Israelites, they received life by eating the bread from heaven. And the life they were given allowed them to believe. In the case of the disciples of Jesus it’s the other way around. We must believe in Jesus as “the true bread from heaven” (John 6:32) in order to receive the eternal life that he provides.

READINGS FOR THE WEEK

LIVING GOD’S WORD The Eucharist has been called the “bread of angels” (Psalm 78:25). It is a free gift from God. It is offered to give us eternal life because through it we receive the life of Christ, “the true bread from heaven” (John 6:32). Jesus promised that those who believe and eat it will hunger and thirst for nothing throughout all eternity.

GOVERNING OUR PASSIONS Whoever governs their passions is master of the world. We must either command them, or be commanded by them. It is better to be the hammer than the anvil.

—St. Dominic

A SECRET The secret of happiness is to count your blessings while others are adding up their troubles.

KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS REQUEST FOR SALE ITEMS

Now at the midpoint between our April and October Charity Rummage Sales, we take note that while certain categories of sale items are coming in on schedule, we are significantly behind in others. Of course we still need donations of all types, with the exception of clothing and shoes, but we are in special need of kitchen and dining items: flatware, glassware, sets of dishes, small electronics like mixers, coffee makers, microwaves, waffle irons, etc., pots/pans, large electronics like refrigerators, freezers, and laundry equipment. We also badly need bedding including quilts, comforters, pillows, sheets, pillowcases, and other linens. Costume jewelry is also a high priority. As in the past, we appreciate donations of seasonal decorations, religious articles, flower arrangements, decorator items, electronics related to entertainment, toys and games, art work, tools, sports equipment and books of popular fiction. The on-going success of our Sales has been dependent upon many volunteer workers, our faithful donors, and of course our patrons who purchase. Some of you fit into all three categories, but many of you fit into two of the categories. Members of Council 6419 are grateful for your support. Please remember us again when you are ready to discard sellable items. Call Jim (282-7027 or 525-7022), Tom (767-1631), Stan ( 520-5974), or Bob (545-6118].
