Food for Thought: John 3:16-18 This familiar passage from the Gospel of John tells us that God loved the world so much

that he gave his only Son to us, so that everyone who believes in him will live forever. Think about how much God loves you. Describe how this makes you feel. Based on these feelings, what kind of a prayer could you say to

God? Either quietly or out loud, say this prayer. (Perhaps your family could write this prayer together).

Juan 3:16-18 Este pasaje conocido del Evangelio de Juan, nos dice que Dios amo tanto al mundo que nos dio su único Hi-

jo, para que todo aquel que crea en el, viva por siempre. Piensa acerca de cuanto Dios te ama. Describe como te hace sentir. Basado en estos sentimientos, ¿Que clase de oración le podrías decir

a Dios? Haz una oración, en silencio o en voz alta. (Tal vez tu familia podría escribir la oración juntos).

Most Holy Trinity Sunday Readings: Scr ipture Readings: Exodus 34.4-6, 8-9; 2 Corinthians 13.11-13; John 3.16-18

“God so loved the world that God sent the only Son that whoever believes in him may not die but have eternal life.” - John 3.16

During Jesus’ lifetime his disciples recognize he is an exceptional man who has come in God’s name and calls God Father and source of all.

After his resurrection, Jesus’ disciples experience the risen Jesus with them, and as Jesus promised, they also experience the Spirit of God

working in their hearts and animating their lives. Out of these experiences of God beyond them, with them, and within them come the first

understandings of God as three in one love.

The early Greek theologians use the word perichoresis to describe three persons in communion. Peri means all around, near as in the

word perimeter. Chor means to dance around, to circle. A chorus intertwines voices in harmony and may dance, circling, intertwining. A

chore is a regular task that requires getting out and about, such as feeding animals or taking out trash. Doctors make rounds to see their pa-

tients.

The word Perichoresis helps us imagine three persons interacting dynamically, making the rounds of each other as in a dance, reciprocally

and mutually exchanging beauty and delight. The word perichoresis helps us resist seeing the three persons in God in order of chronology

and importance. It eliminates the hierarchical order we assume in the Sign of the Cross—Father first, then the Son, and Spirit subordinate.

Our God is not a single monarch but instead three persons in one, their shared love at the heart of the universe.

What difference does now we image the Trinity make in our lives?

Busy Person's Retreat

Part 4. What is Your Attitude toward Work? (section 2)

You may think of "work" as only something you get paid to do, but,

work is essential to the lives of every one. Of course, getting paid to

work is the way most people are able to provide food, clothing, and

shelter. Paychecks buy transportation, security, education, recreation.

The money earned can be used to support your church, the govern-

ment, and worthy causes.

Does your salary also enable you to reach out to those who are hun-

gry, thirsty, strangers, naked, ill, and imprisoned? As Jesus tells us in

the parable of the Last Judgment (Matthew 25:31-46), "Whatever

you did for one of these least brothers and sisters of mine, you did

for me."

Most of us find more ways to spend money than we have bank ac-

counts or credit cards! How did you manage last month? Jot down

the major categories in which you spend money. What do you dis-

cover about your values?

Extending your heart and mind beyond yourself involves creativity

in using your imagination. Working creatively can move you beyond

the merely routine and repetitious. If you feel trapped in a job or a

family situation that gives you little joy or fulfillment, can you think

of ways to be creative about your work?

A book you may find helpful as you think about your relationships

and your work is Dorothy Soelle's To Work and To Love: a Theolo-

gy of Creation, Fortress Press, 1984.

Ask yourself now: In what one way is my work (either daily tasks or

my job) life-giving? How do I deal with difficulties at work and with

my own limitations?

What is one way I can be creative at work, relate to someone at

work, or change a dehumanizing system?

While work is a vital dimension of humanity, for some people it can

become obsessive or addictive. Do you know people who replace

God and even family with the gods of success, ambition, or power?

Being a "workaholic" means being addicted to work and, as a result,

being subject to burnout and despair. True work needs to be bal-

anced by prayer and leisure.

Ideally through your work you should be able to express yourself,

share with others, and contribute to the building up of the world.

Perhaps you know people who have boring or distasteful jobs but yet

bring a positive attitude to their work. Satisfaction is found not only

in work well done but also in human relationships.

Have you encountered people in service jobs who can either make or

break your day by their attitude toward their work? One bus driver in

particular is fondly remembered by many riders for the hospitality he

offered as he greeted each rider warmly. His genuine interest in each

rider brightened their lives. He obviously enjoyed his job very much

and made the job into a daily blessing for himself and others. Any

work, no matter how routine or "boring" can become a blessing for

others as well as for ourselves. ~~Look for section 3 of Part 4 Next

Despite uncertainty about refugees entering the U.S., the Refugee Resettlement Coalition of the Lane County hasn’t stopped caring about refugee families.

Conditions in refugee camps are even more difficult because of the uncertainty and hopelessness refugees face regarding the future. What can one person do?

- You can bring help and hope to a refugee family by making a relief kit. Relief kits remind refugee families that someone cares. A relief kit supplies the most

basic items needed by families in refugee camps, including: 4 bath towels (Med wt, dark/ bright colors), 4 adult toothbrushes, 4 large bars bath soap, 2 wide

tooth combs (6-8 inches), 1 box band aids (40 count, assorted), 1 fingernail clipper (good quality), 1 pkg sanitary pads (18-24 ct, thin maxi), 1 13-24 oz bottle

shampoo in resealable plastic bag, 4 lg bars laundry soap (Fels Naptha, Sunlight or Zote brands)

Kit contents should be new items and placed in a plastic garbage bag for easy transport. Kits can be dropped off at Windermere Real Estate (1600 Oak ST,

Eugene, Parking behind building) Mon-Fri 8:30-5 or Catholic Community Services (1025 G st, Springfield) Mon– Fri, 9:30-4:30.

Saturday, July 1, 2017. Veselka, Springfield’s Ukrainian dance troupe, performs at this popular annual outdoor festival. Eighty dancers—
