Prayer for Grace for our Country
Dear Father united to Jesus in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the Sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present, celebrated around the world, in the Holy Spirit. We offer up all we do united to the Mass. We unite in one mind and one heart as members of the mystical body of Christ, with Christ our head in the pure and holy Hearts of Jesus and Mary, through the powerful intercession of Mary with all the angels and saints and souls in purgatory, and we beg for the saving grace, for our country, the United States. Please help us. We further pray for unity to always do the will of God in love. We spread the Blood of Jesus on the leaders and people of the United States and cast the devil into hell. We consecrate our country to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart and all our dioceses, and beg for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. God help us. We pray for our families, the priests, the Church and the world. In the Name of Jesus please hear us, we pray. We pray for our new president as he takes office. We pray that we are united as one nation under God to work together in love as God wants.

Fr. Joe Robinson's 80th Birthday
28th Sunday in Ordinary Time
Isaiah 25: 6-10a
On this mountain, for all peoples,
Yahweh Sabaoth is preparing
a banquet of rich food,
a banquet of fine wines,
of succulent food, of well–strained wines.
On this mountain, he has destroyed
the veil which used to veil all peoples,
the pall enveloping all nations;
he has destroyed death for ever.
Lord Yahweh has wiped away the tears
from every cheek;
he has taken his people’s shame away
everywhere on earth,
for Yahweh has spoken.And on that day, it will be said,
‘Look, this is our God,
in him we put our hope
that he should save us,
this is Yahweh, we put our hope in him.
Let us exult and rejoice
since he has saved us.’
For Yahweh’s hand will rest
on this mountain,
Psalm 23: 1-6
Yahweh is my shepherd, I lack nothing.
In grassy meadows he lets me lie.By tranquil streams he leads me
to restore my spirit.
He guides me in paths of saving justice
as befits his name.Even were I to walk in a ravine as dark as death
I should fear no danger, for you are at my side.
Your staff and your crook are there to soothe me.You prepare a table for me
under the eyes of my enemies;
you anoint my head with oil;
my cup brims over.Kindness and faithful love pursue me
every day of my life.
I make my home in the house of Yahweh
for all time to come.
Philippians 4: 12-14, 19-20
I know how to live modestly, and I know how to live luxuriously too: in every way now I have mastered the secret of all conditions: full stomach and empty stomach, plenty and poverty. There is nothing I cannot do in the One who strengthens me. All the same, it was good of you to share with me in my hardships.
And my God will fulfill all your needs out of the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus. And so glory be to God our Father, for ever and ever. Amen.
Matthew 22: 1-14
Jesus began to speak to them in parables once again, ‘The kingdom of Heaven may be compared to a king who gave a feast for his son’s wedding. He sent his servants to call those who had been invited, but they would not come. Next he sent some more servants with the words, "Tell those who have been invited: Look, my banquet is all prepared, my oxen and fattened cattle have been slaughtered, everything is ready. Come to the wedding." But they were not interested: one went off to his farm, another to his business, and the rest seized his servants, maltreated them and killed them. The king was furious. He despatched his troops, destroyed those murderers and burnt their town. Then he said to his servants, "The wedding is ready; but as those who were invited proved to be unworthy, go to the main crossroads and invite everyone you can find to come to the wedding." So these servants went out onto the roads and collected together everyone they could find, bad and good alike; and the wedding hall was filled with guests. When the king came in to look at the guests he noticed one man who was not wearing a wedding garment, and said to him, "How did you get in here, my friend, without a wedding garment?" And the man was silent. Then the king said to the attendants, "Bind him hand and foot and throw him into the darkness outside, where there will be weeping and grinding of teeth." For many are invited but not all are chosen.’
October 12, 2014
(Isaiah 25, 6-10a; Matthew 22, 1-14) Today's first reading and today's gospel give us a beautiful picture of what it is we're praying for when we say "thy will be done." God's will is for our complete and eternal happiness. Our gospel warns us, however, that in order to be part of his beautiful plan, we need to respond to the invitation he offers us. Our second reading is part of a thank you note St. Paul wrote to the Philippians for the money they sent him to help him most probably while he was in prison. The Philippian community was the only community that were thoughtful enough to offer him any support in his ministry.INTRODUCTION –
HOMILY –
Once more I wish to remind you that at this point in Matthew's gospel we are beginning the last week of Jesus' life here on earth. That week is known to us as Holy Week. As that week began, Jesus entered Jerusalem triumphantly, he went into the Temple and in anger drove out those carrying on business in the Temple, accusing them of having turned the Temple into a den of thieves. Then Jesus began teaching the crowd. People who were blind and lame were forbidden by law to enter the Temple, but when they entered and approached Jesus, instead of scolding them for entering, he healed them. The elders and priests confronted Jesus and demanded to know who gave him the authority to do what he was doing. He responded to them with three parables describing the kingdom of heaven. We have already heard two of those parables on the past two Sundays. Today we hear the third.It is very similar to last Sunday's parable. The king in the parable represents God. A royal wedding at the time of Jesus would have been a spectacular event, as exciting and awesome as anything the ordinary person might get to experience in their entire lifetime. As the parable begins it is assumed that the invited guests would have accepted the invitation when it was first offered, but by the time of the great event, they all changed their mind. They do not even offer an excuse, rather their rejection of the invitation and their violence toward the messengers from the king has the appearance of a rebellion on the part of the citizens against the king. And so the king's response is severe and he invites others to the banquet. The last part of the parable about not having a wedding garment reminds us if we are going to participate in this awesome event, we must come with the right attitude. Those judged worthy of the eternal banquet must come equipped with the deeds of an authentic Christian life. Their good deeds go with them as the book of Revelation tells us, and we should have some good deeds to bring with us.
I want to shift now to today's second reading. St. Paul is thanking the Philippian community for their goodness to him. He has a nice way of expressing his gratitude, as he says: "it was kind of you to share in my distress." In many ways the people of this parish share in the work of the parish, through sharing with us their time, talent and treasure. Today I want to talk about the treasure part of what you share. It is required of pastors that I do so. In a few days, I will send a letter out along with a finance report for our fiscal year July 1, 2013 to June 30, 2014. That same report is in today's bulletin, in case you do not get a letter. Financially it was not a year to brag about. We ended the year almost $40,000 in the red. However, God is good. A very kind and thoughtful person bailed us out by leaving St. Boniface Church a bequest for about $90,000 which just came to us a couple of weeks ago. God is good! That bequest will not only help us with our $40,000 deficit from our last fiscal year, but it will help us with sidewalk repair around the area of the school which was recently completed.
We had no big surprises this past year, and we do not anticipate any major repairs this current fiscal year. What concerns me most is that already this fiscal year, since July 1, our collections are down almost $15,000. If they continue to drop at that rate, we will end the fiscal year about $60,000 in the red. I know that many of our parishioners come from outside of Northside and age and weather make it more difficult for them to be here. When you can't get here to Mass on a particular weekend, please, if you can, increase your contribution the next time you do come, or use direct deposit. We cannot close the church down when people are missing and we always have bills to pay.
We have an important ministry here at St. Boniface. You share in that ministry by your financial support. I am optimistic about our future. New people are going to be moving into Northside when a couple of building projects are finished and I am hopeful these should increase our attendance. But until we see that happen, St. Boniface has to rely on our faithful and generous parishioners. If you can share more generously, please do so. I know you are asking right now "what do you mean by more generously; give us a number." I figure it will take between a 5% and 10% increase in weekly income to bring us to where we need to be. I especially thank all of you for your support each Sunday and I pray you will help us to keep serving the Lord as we do. Remember, you will not outdo the Lord in generosity. You will be blessed by God more generously than you can imagine for your generous sharing in his work. Amen.

Guiding Light homily series — Reflect on the Word — Cycle B The Word leaves an impression on our souls. In my thoughts and reflections are born a more tangible understanding of these eternal concepts presented in the Gospels and the readings. Anyone can read a sentence, but not anyone can absorb it's true meaning. Truth, in this day and age, is almost a matter of opinion or individual entitlement. We believe that Christ's truth is our Roman Catholic Church. We, as priests, champion it's teachings; we are ambassadors for the Pope and Christ to those faces looking at us. We are the light by which our congregation reads to reflect upon real truth and we do it hand in hand. $15 |

Guiding Light homily series — Steadfast to the Son — Cycle A The sunflower is a great example of how we should be steadfastly guided by light. What a powerful thought that this exceptional plant is not stuck in one pose day in and day out, yet adaptable and magnetized to the sun. We feel the same about our Son. Our heads turns to face Christ as each day presents its challenges to find light. We join together like plants in a field and soak up the Son through the pulpit. We are a warm circle of strength using the wind of our breath to carry our priests' words, Christ's words, to new rich soil. $15 |

Guiding Light — Focusing on the Word — Cycle B At times we may feel that our path to Christ is a bit "out of focus". Like the disciples in the Book of Mark, this ordinary life clouds our vision of Christ's Divinity. We may doubt the practicality or possibility of applying His teachings and example to our modern life. Cycle B's homilies are a "guiding light" to help us realize Jesus' Messianic greatness and His promise of better things to come. $15 |
|
|
|

Guiding Light — Feed My Soul — Cycle C In a world rapidly advancing and encouraging personal gain, we are faced with modern problems. There is a challenge to find time in our busy schedules for Sunday Mass or a family meal. We are able to research, shop, bank and even work without hearing one human voice. It is no wonder that we may often feel disconnected and famished at our week's end. In Fr. Joe's third book of homilies from Cycle C, we are reminded of the charity that Christ intended us to show each other. We have a calling to turn the other cheek and be the Good Samaritan to others. We are rewarded with the Father's kingdom and love when we are not worthy. We are not left alone or hungry. $15 |

Priestly Newsletter — 2000 #1 — CD. — Christ is Our Strength — Fr. Edward Carter, S.J. read it the year he died. It is so beautiful. "This brief passage contains one of the greatest lessons of the spiritual life. As we progress along our spiritual journey, we become increasingly aware of how weak we are in our—selves, but how strong we are in Christ. To experience our weakness involves suffering. The degree and kind of suffering can vary. The suffering can include the experience of the classical dark night of the spirit as described by St. John of the Cross. One of the main purposes of the dark night is to make a person keenly aware of his or her helplessness without God." quote by Fr. Carter from the newsletter $10 |
