A Christian is a keyhole through which others see God
July 5, 2020 14th Sunday in Ordinary Time
We are all familiar with the refrain, “You have put on Christ. In him you have been baptized. Alleluia, alleluia!” In Baptism, we “put on” Christ. In putting on Christ, we put on all that Christ is and represents: hope, faith, and love. We are no longer bound to the sins and failures of the flesh, that part of us that resists God and relies exclusively on human means. It also means that we are not in debt to our past, complete with its sins, failures, regrets, fears, and unfulfilled dreams. There is always hope. In putting on Christ, we put on God’s vision for the world, for all of His children and for us. We have been given a road map to guide our paths and a blueprint to follow for our life’s journey.
There is no need for regret, and we are not tethered to our past. Is there anything in your past that you regret? Any decision or memory that continues to haunt you? We have all made mistakes, and we have this uncanny ability to continue beating ourselves up over things we can no longer do anything about, except learn from them. To put on Christ means that I can now bring God’s unconditional love to my hurtful memories and sinful choices. With each new moment and every new choice, I can start clean and live in freedom.
Imagine adults when the disciples were preaching and baptizing. They came to baptism not really knowing who they were, with pasts that were broken, seeking to live the joy of the Gospel they heard spoken to them and wanting the love they saw witnessed in the lives of those who believed. What tremendous celebrations their baptisms must have been! They could now have the support of a community, full participation in the sacraments of the church, focus for their disordered lives, consolation, healing, and an understanding of what life is really all about.
Our lives are meant to be celebrations of the Spirit we have received in Baptism.
How does that joy get expressed in and through you? When we truly understand that we have put on Christ, our burdens can become much lighter. It is odd that so many Christians look like they are carrying the weight of the world on their shoulders. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if those weights could be lifted and joy experienced!

The Pope’s Prayer Intention for JULY
Our Families We pray that today’s families may be accompanied with love, respect and
guidance.
FORMATION CORNER
St. Anthony of Padua has re-
sumed weekend Mass at the
usual times of 5pm Saturday,
and 10am Sunday.
Father Todd will preside from
the altar during Mass, most
likely in a wheelchair. He has
gotten permission to have a
lay minister distribute the Eu-
charist.
We will follow all of the guide-
lines set forth by the Archdio-
cese of Milwaukee.
Also at that time we will re-
sume our livestreaming of the
Liturgy.
Keep logging into Formed for
great entertainment!
Blessing for Our Nation God of all things, we come before you in thanksgiv-ing for all that you have created. For the world and its beauty, but especially for the people around us. We ask you today to give us wisdom and courage to look at the world and all its problems and inspire us to dream great ways to improve upon what you have so graciously given to us. Make us worthy to call you Father. And together bestow insight upon us to honor your created things. Bless, protect, and gift us ever anew with your love. We ask all this as members of this country, in Christ's name. Amen.
Have you considered ASCS for your child’s education?
This is what one of our families had to say about their recent experience…
“I was VERY impressed and VERY relieved how ASCS handled the shutdown and virtual learning. I never had to guess what was happening next, or who to ask a question. The video that was shared to all of us by the teachers at Easter time brought me to tears because it just felt that we were a family. It kept me going during that tough time and I didn’t fear because I knew we had people to fall back on if we needed to. I have loved that from the start of when we became part of ASCS. I will forever praise ASCS and the entire faculty!” We are here for your family, too, and our doors will be open in the fall to provide an outstanding, Catholic education for your children! (3 year-old Preschool through 8th grade.) Call today-space is limited. (262) 925-4024

As we celebrate Independence Day, St. Joseph Catholic Academy is grateful for the blessing of religious freedom. Because of this constitution-al right, SJCA is allowed to teach our Catholic faith in the classrooms, share the Eucharistic in our chapels, and pray openly and often throughout the school days. Because of the Catholicism taught every day at SJCA, all of our students grow deeper in their faith. May God bless our school, our country and all of those who keep us safe and free.

PARISH DATES: July 8—Parish Council 7pm (socially distanced in the gym)
Due to the injury to Father Todd, we did not resume First Friday Mass on July 3 nor Thursday morning 7am Mass on July 2. Sorry for any inconvenience that this may have caused. Hopefully, we will resume Thursday mornings on July 16 and First Fridays on August 7. Thank you for you understanding and prayers.
