PASTOR’S POTPOURRI JEREMIAH THE PROPHET AND OUR CALL TO BE PROPHETS Jeramiah, like all the prophets, was ridiculed and made to seem unsuccessful. That is why he says that the Lord se-duced him because of all the people who would not listen to his warnings. He decided to quit…but he could not do it. The power of the Word of God was so strong that he says he could not not speak the Lord’s Word to the people, even if they rejected him and the Word. This was his vocation.
The late biblical scholar, Father Bruce Vawter defined a prophet this way: “Prophets are the conscience of the peo-ple.” Another man by the name of Hans Walter Wolff said, “Prophets are the people in the community who provide us with the future implications of our present actions.” Both these statements overlap. Prophets are always the community’s reformers. St. Paul would say in 1 Corinthians 14: “Pursue love, but strive eagerly for the spiritual gifts, above all that you may prophesy.”
Biblical prophets constantly remind their audiences to “return to the Lord”… to relate to God, not to an institution, nor to a set of rules and regulations or to an authority structure. God’s people are expected to go one on one with the Holy One: the essential force in their daily lives.
Yet, as Jeramiah graphically points out, strange and disturbing things happen to those who dare to relate to that supreme Other One. May the Lord give us the inspiration and courage to be prophets, despite the cost. (Excepts from CELEBRATION, August 31, 2014) Msgr. Bob
Twenty Second Sunday in Ordinary Time What profit would there be if you gained the whole world, yet forfeited your life? That’s not a question we in the west take very seriously.
We can’t imagine what the Christians in Mosul have to face every day, but maybe we should make ourselves imagine it. Christians have been the target of 80 percent of all religious discrimination in 139 countries around the world. Attacks on
Christians jumped 309 percent in seven years, and more than 100 million have been persecuted. Since the time of Jesus, the world has seen 70 million Christian martyrs, and fully 50 percent of those have lived in the 20th century.
It’s hard to get an accurate count of the martyrs of this century, and certainly the events in Mosul will take those numbers to, in the words evocative of our country’s own terror 13 years ago, more than we can bear. A conservative number is between seven and eight thousand yearly. John Allen, author of The Global War on Christians, writes “Two thirds of the 2.3 billion Christians in the world today live…in dangerous neighborhoods. They are often poor. They often belong to ethnic, linguistic and cultural minorities. And they are often at risk. That point is more important than being precise about the death toll.”
D.C. The CUA national collection provides funding for academic scholarships. Established in 1887, it is the only institution of higher education founded by the U.S. bishops. Students are enrolled from all 50 states and almost 100 countries. At St. Clare and St. Mary’s we will take portion of our tithe to contribute to this collection. Thank you for your generosity.

REFLEXION DE LAS LECTURAS DE HOY
JEREMÍAS 20:7-9. El nombre Jeremías significa "el Señor se levanta". Pero por las protestas del profeta, podemos decir que el Señor lo abandonó. Sus amigos se rieron de él y decidió no ser el interlocutor del Señor. Sin embargo, la palabra de Dios ardía en su corazón. El debía continuar haciendo el trabajo a que Dios lo había llamado. El decidió ser fiel a Dios a pesar del sufrimiento que sabía le llegaría.
ROMANOS 12:1-2. Al igual que Jeremías, Pablo nos recuerda que hacer la voluntad de Dios no es siempre fácil. Debemos estar dispuestos a hacer la voluntad de Dios a costa de nosotros mismos. Ser un sacrificio espiritual con frecuencia significa ponernos antes, ser diferentes, transformarnos para complacer a Dios.
MATEO 16:21-27. Jesús corrige a Pedro quien no entendió cuando Jesús dijo que iría a Jerusalén a sufrir, morir y resucitar de nuevo. Pedro, al igual que muchos otros, esperaba que Jesús fuera el Mesías conquistador. Jesús le dijo que él estaba juzgando por los estándares de los hombres y no por los de Dios. Pedro no se había dado cuenta de que Jesús iba a salvarnos en la cruz, y que todos los discípulos tenían que aceptar la cruz. Esta sería parte de la vida de todos sus discípulos, para todos los que lo siguieran. PREGUNTAS PARA DIALOGAR
¿Por qué los trabajadores en las ruinas de las Torres Gemelas tomaron una viga en forma de cruz de los escombros y la colocaron en el centro del lugar? ¿Por qué la palabra cruz significa sufrimiento y sacrificio? ¿Qué hizo Jesús para enseñarnos sobre el sufrimiento? ¿Qué cruz crees que tú y tus amigos tienen que cargar? ¿Cómo puedes mostrar que estás dispuesto a cargarla?
Saint Clare of Assisi would like to introduce our new Physical Education Instructor and kindergarten aid AND a St. Clare School alumni Elizabeth Shearon.

grade class, graduating from SCA in 2005.
She attended Vail Christian High School and continued her education at the University of Montana in Missoula where she received her BA in Elementary Education
with a psychology emphasis. Elizabeth traveled to New Zealand where she student taught 1st grade for 3 months and

Catholic Schools
Believe in a Higher Standard!
Catholic schools are known for their high level of academic achievement and high graduation rates. As a group, Catholic school students score above average on national academic tests. Nationally, 99.1 percent of students at Catholic high schools graduate. Of these graduates, 84.7 percent go on to college, compared to 44.1 percent of public school graduates. Catholic schools provide an education that goes beyond preparation for a secular life. They produce students dedicated to their faith, values, families and communities by providing an intellectually stimulating environment rich in spiritual and moral development. Commitment to service is a core value of Catholic schools. Catholic students learn service – giving their time, talents and effort to help others – both as an ex-pression of faith and good citizenship.
