Twentieth Sunday in Ordinary Time Statement from The Most Reverend Paul J. Swain Bishop of Sioux Falls August 13, 2017 In response to the demonstrations promoting racism in Charlottesville, VA The recent violence in Charlottesville, Virginia saddens and shocks all people of good will. It also ought to prick our consciences. Racism, especially in this instance of white supremacy, is sinful. It is to be both rejected and condemned. Hateful and criminal violence is only its most extreme expression. Inherent in our Catholic faith is that all persons are created by God in His likeness and, therefore, are children of God. Every person in all our diversity is deserving of respect and the freedom to live lives of dignity and safety. As St. Paul reminds us: “For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free person, there is not male or female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.” (Gal 3:27-28). Christ’s invitation is offered to all. Let us reject all forms of violence and pray for greater respect, mutual understanding, and reconciliation. Lord, make us instruments of your peace . . . where there hatred let us sow love. Twentieth Sunday in Ordinary Time August 20, 2017 Jesus said, “O woman, great is your faith! Let it be done for you as you wish.” And the woman’s daughter was healed from that hour.”

Twentieth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Statement from The Most Reverend Paul J. Swain
Bishop of Sioux Falls August 13, 2017
In response to the demonstrations promoting racism in Charlottesville, VA
The recent violence in Charlottesville, Virginia saddens and shocks all people of good will. It also ought to prick our consciences.
Racism, especially in this instance of white supremacy, is sinful. It is to be both rejected and condemned. Hateful and criminal
violence is only its most extreme expression.
Inherent in our Catholic faith is that all persons are created by God in His likeness and, therefore, are children of God.
Every person in all our diversity is deserving of respect and the freedom to live lives of dignity and safety.
As St. Paul reminds us: “For all of you who were baptized into
Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free person, there is
not male or female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.” (Gal 3:27-28). Christ’s invitation is offered to all.
Let us reject all forms of violence and
pray for greater respect, mutual understanding, and reconciliation.
Lord, make us instruments of your peace . . .
where there hatred let us sow love.

Safe environment training is for all adults who are hired by the church, or volunteers with youth or vulnerable adults. Such programs are religious education, youth discipleship, Martha's kitchen, and taking communion to the homebound. Please get your training completed by Sept 1. Any questions please call JoLynn. 1.
