SEPTEMBER 27, 2020 - 3 - TWENTY-SIXTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME

My deepest thanks to all parishioners of St. Timothy parish for all you do to increase charity and to take on sacrifice.

Fr. Ed

By the time the Lord made woman, He

was into his sixth day of working overtime. An

angel appeared and said, "Why are you

spending so much time on this one?"

And the Lord answered, "Have you seen

my spec sheet on her? She has to be

completely washable, but not plastic, have

over 200 movable parts, all replaceable and

able to run on diet coke and leftovers, have a

lap that can hold four children at one time,

have a kiss that can cure anything from a

scraped knee to a broken heart-and she will do everything with

only two hands."

The angel was astounded at the requirements.

"Only two hands!? No way! And that's just on the standard

model? That's too much work for one day. Wait until tomorrow

to finish."

But I won't," the Lord protested. "I am so close to finishing

this creation that is so close to my own heart. She already heals

herself when she is sick AND can work 18 hour days."

The angel moved closer and touched the woman. "But you

have made her so soft, Lord."

"She is soft," the Lord agreed, "but I have also made her

tough. You have no idea what she can endure or accomplish."

"Will she be able to think?", asked the angel.

The Lord replied, "Not only will she be able to think, she will

be able to reason and negotiate."

The angel then noticed something, and reaching out,

touched the woman's cheek. "Oops, it looks like you have a leak

in this model. I told you that you were trying to put too much into

this one."

"That's not a leak," the Lord corrected, "that's a tear!"

"What's the tear for?" the angel asked.

The Lord said, "The tear is her way of

expressing her joy, her sorrow, her pain, her

disappointment, her love, her loneliness, her

grief and her pride."

The angel was impressed. "You are a genius,

Lord. you thought of everything! Woman is

truly amazing."

And she is!

Women have strengths that amaze men. They

bear hardships and they carry burdens, but

they hold happiness, love and joy. They smile when they want

to scream. They sing when they want to cry. They cry when

they are happy and laugh when they are nervous. They fight for

what they believe in. They stand up to injustice. They don't take

"no" for an answer when they believe there is a better solution.

They go without so their family can have. They go to the doctor

with a frightened friend. They love unconditionally. They cry

when their children excel and cheer when their friends get

awards. They are happy when they hear about a birth or a

wedding. Their hearts break when a friend dies. They grieve at

the loss of a family member, yet they are strong when they think

there is no strength left. They know that a hug and a kiss can

heal a broken heart. Women come in all shapes, sizes and

colors. They'll drive, fly, walk, run or e-mail you to show how

much they care about you. The heart of a woman is what makes

the world keep turning. They bring joy, hope and love. They

have compassion and ideals. They give moral support to their

family and friends. Women have vital things to say and

everything to give.

HOWEVER, IF THERE IS ONE FLAW IN WOMEN,

IT IS THAT THEY FORGET THEIR WORTH.

Appeal renew the human spirit.

CHURCH IS OPEN—NORMAL MASS SCHEDULE

For those who have concerns about attending weekend Mass at

this time:

“The obligation to attend Mass on Sunday is lifted until

further notice.” – Bishop John Noonan

If you have reservations about coming to church on the

weekends, think about coming to daily mass to be able to

receive the Blessed Sacrament.

SACRAMENT OF PENANCE

“In case of physical or moral impossibility in which a person

cannot personally go to confession to a priest, according to the

Catechism of the Catholic Church and the Code of Canon Law,

a person is to make an Act of Contrition with a sincere desire to

go to confession as soon as it is possible” (CCC 1484; CIC 960).

AN ACT OF SPIRITUAL COMMUNION

My Jesus,

I believe that You

are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.

I love You above all things,

and I desire to receive You into my soul.

Since I cannot at this moment

receive You sacramentally,

come at least spiritually into my heart.

I embrace You as if You were already there

and unite myself wholly to You.

Never permit me to be separated from You.

Amen

MISSIONARY ROSARY MAKERS

If you would like to honor Our Lady in a special

way, plus assist in the work of domestic and foreign

missions, come see us Tuesdays at 9:15 AM in

Room 7. We will teach you how to make rosaries.

FEAST OF THE GUARDIAN ANGELS

SAINT OF THE DAY FOR OCTOBER 2

THE STORY OF THE FEAST OF THE GUARDIAN ANGELS

Perhaps no aspect of Catholic piety is as comforting to parents

as the belief that an angel protects their little ones from dangers

real and imagined. Yet guardian angels are not only for children.

Their role is to represent individuals before God, to watch over

them always, to aid their prayer, and to present their souls to

God at death.

The concept of an angel assigned to guide and nurture each

human being is a development of Catholic doctrine and piety

based on Scripture but not directly drawn from it. Jesus’ words in

Matthew 18:10 best support the belief: “See that you do not

despise one of these little ones, for I say to you that their angels

in heaven always look upon the face of my heavenly Father.”

Devotion to the angels began to develop with the birth of the

monastic tradition. Saint Benedict gave it impetus and Saint

Bernard of Clairvaux, the great 12th-century reformer, was such

an eloquent spokesman for the guardian angels that angelic

devotion assumed its current form in his day.

A feast in honor of the guardian angels was first observed in the

16th century. In 1615, Pope Paul V added it to the Roman

calendar.

REFLECTION

Devotion to the angels is, at base, an expression of faith in

God’s enduring love and providential care extended to each

person day in and day out.

SEPTEMBER 27, 2020 - 7 - TWENTY-SIXTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME

PRAYING THE OUR FATHER

Tertillian tells us that practically the whole teaching of

Christianity is summed up in the Lord’s Prayer. On that

foundation we can build our private prayers for

whatever we really need.

Just a few succinct words, but how much they contain of what

the prophets, the Gospels, and the Apostles said! How many of

the speeches, examples, and parables of the Lord! How many

duties are dealt with at once!

The honor of God in the “Father”;

The witness of faith in the “Name”;

The offering of obedience in the “Will”;

The remembrance of hope in the “Kingdom”;

The complete admission of our sins in the prayer to Forgive”;

The watchful fear of temptation in the “Lead us not . . .”

The petition for life in the Bread”;

And no wonder. Only God could teach us how he wanted us

to pray to him.

The religious rite of prayer, then, ordained by God himself, and

enlivened by his own spirit as it came forth from the divine

mouth, ascends into by its own right, commending to the Father

what the Son has taught.

But since the Lord, who foresees everything we need, also told

us, after giving us his rule of prayer, “Ask and it will be given

you” (Matthew 7:7), and we each have our own requests to

make according to our own circumstances, our other needs have

the right - after beginning the legitimate traditional prayers as a

foundation, so to speak - to build an outer superstructure of

requests, though remembering what the Master taught us.

-Tertillian “On Prayer,” Chapters 9-10

IN GOD’S PRESENCE, CONSIDER . . .

When I pray the Our Father, do I think about the meaning of

each phrase?

Do I build my own prayers on the foundation of Jesus’ own

prayer?

CLOSING PRAYER

Slowly pray the Lord’s Prayer and reflect on the meaning of

every phrase.

Benedict Press 2010)

CATECHISM CORNER: HOW TO EAT AN ELEPHANT

ONE BITE AT A TIME

Article 125 of the Catechism of the Catholic Church:

The Gospels are the heart of all the Scriptures

“because they are our principal source for the

life and teaching of the Incarnate Word, our

savior.”

REFLECTION:

St. Jerome say, “Ignorance of Scripture Is ignorance of Christ.”

This is especially true where the four Gospel are concerned.

Every effort to know Christ better must include a deep familiarity

with Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.

PRAYER:

Father of our Lord Jesus Christ unfold for your people the

mystery of your Word made flesh through the sacred writings of

the Evangelists.

(Source: “Day By Day With The Catechism,” Peter A. Giersch, Catholic Book

Publishing, 2006)

ST. AUGUSTINE ON “THE NEED FOR DAILY BREAD”:

When we say; “Give us this day our daily bread,” you admit that

you are God’s beggar. But do not be ashamed; however rich

anyone may be on earth, that person is God’s beggar. The

beggar stands before the house of the rich Being.

Rich people need their “daily bread.” Why do they have an

abundance of everything? For no other reason than that God

has given it to them. What, then, will they have if God should

withdraw his aid?

-Sermon 56, 9

PRAYER.

Lord, all things are Yours, for you made them. We thank you.

-Sermon 16A, 6

SAINT THÉRÈSE OF LISIEUX

SAINT OF THE DAY FOR OCTOBER 1

(JANUARY 2, 1873 – SEPTEMBER 30, 1897)

SAINT THÉRÈSE OF LISIEUX’S STORY

“I prefer the monotony of obscure sacrifice to all ecstasies. To

pick up a pin for love can convert a soul.”

These are the words of Thérèse of Lisieux, a Carmelite nun

called the “Little Flower,” who lived a cloistered life of obscurity in

the convent of Lisieux, France. And her preference for hidden

sacrifice did indeed convert souls. Few saints of God are more

popular than this young nun. Her autobiography, The Story of a

Soul, is read and loved throughout the world. Thérèse Martin

entered the convent at the age of 15 and died in 1897 at the age

of 24.

Life in a Carmelite convent is indeed uneventful and consists

mainly of prayer and hard domestic work. But Thérèse

possessed that holy insight that redeems the time, however dull

that time may be. She saw in quiet suffering a redemptive

suffering, suffering that was indeed her apostolate. Thérèse said

she came to the Carmel convent “to save souls and pray for

priests.” And shortly before she died, she wrote: “I want to spend

my heaven doing good on earth.”

Thérèse was canonized in 1925. On October 19, 1997, Pope

John Paul II proclaimed her a Doctor of the Church, the third

woman to be so recognized in light of her holiness and the

influence of her teaching on spirituality in the Church.

Her parents, Louis and Zélie, were beatified in 2008, and

canonized in 2015.

REFLECTION

Thérèse has much to teach our age of the image, the

appearance, the “self.” We have become a dangerously self-

conscious people, painfully aware of the need to be fulfilled, yet

knowing we are not. Thérèse, like so many saints, sought to

serve others, to do something outside herself, to forget herself in

quiet acts of love. She is one of the great examples of the gospel

paradox that we gain our life by losing it, and that the seed that

falls to the ground must die in order to live.

Preoccupation with self separates modern men and women from

God, from their fellow human beings, and ultimately from

themselves. We must re-learn to forget ourselves, to

contemplate a God who draws us out of ourselves, and to serve

others as the ultimate expression of selfhood. These are the

insights of Saint Thérèse, and they are more valid today than

ever.
