Harvest Hope · Contact Church of St Martin or: Barb Kohorst 320 548.3319 Every good and perfect...

When making decisions, we often struggle with what voice to follow. We acknowledge the presence of God, the existence of the Trinity, the priority of

the Gospel, and the virtues and values they embody. Yet, even with all of that truth, knowledge, and tradition behind us, we think we know better.

When confronted with a decision, we easily dismiss what we know we ought and need to do and entertain responses that stem from lesser desires and

wants. We eventually may come around and realize that what God asks us to do is what we need to do, even if it wasn’t our original intention. God

accepts our return to Him with joy. What becomes dishonest is deceiving ourselves, God, and others by originally saying yes to what we know we need

(and are asked to do) and willfully doing something else. That is blatant hypocrisy.

Stewardship Presentations at Our Parishes

Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Fa-

ther of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.

-James 1:17

We begin a series of stewardship presentations in our parishes this

weekend. The goal is to keep you informed about the vitality and fiscal

health of your parish. I (Fr. Edward) will be giving these presentations

at the following masses:

September 26 & 27 , 5pm Seven Dolors, 8am & 10:30am Saint Bene-

dict

October 4, 7:30am Seven Dolors, 9:30am St. martin

October 11, 8:30am St. Anthony, 10:30am Seven Dolors

In this unusual year, I would like us all to consider what we need to do

to set the boat of our churches in the water with the sales lifted, so

that we catch the winds of the Holy Spirit blowing us to where we need

to be.

World Day of Migrants & Refugees

In his address Pope Francis said that, “When we know their stories, it is

easy to feel concern for the well-being for migrants and refugees.”

Their stories are each unique, but just as our ancestors once did, they

generally come in search of a better and safer life for their families. It

is often pointed out that immigrants who settle in the United States

make an important contribution to the U.S. economy. They fill neces-

sary position in many sectors. They are statistically less likely to com-

mit crimes, but more likely to suffer them. The current global health

and economic crisis has severely affected the lives of many who live

away from their own homes. Jesus’ blessing of those who “welcome

the stranger” as a Corporal Work of Mercy is as striking now as ever.

Psalms and Old Testament Study

Monday Mornings

I have rekindled my passion for Old Testament study during these unu-

sual six months. So, I am eager to share some fruit of that and to hear

your reflections. We will gather 8:15-9am (after the 7:30am mass) at

Seven Dolors and spread out in the gym. The study will take place

each Monday. There is no reason to worry if you can only come a few

times, or if you need to skip a session, because it will not be a system-

atic study. I will warmly welcome anyone who happens to come on a

particular Monday morning. I will choose the Psalm or Old Testament

reading from the ensuing Sunday and give a 15-20-minute explanation

of the text. How it relates to overall themes of the Old Testament, and

how it enlightens our understanding of Jesus Christ. After that explana-

tion we will have opportunity for individuals to share reflections or ask

questions. All are welcome, from any parish! Bring your bible!!

Scripture Quote for the Day

Your ways, O LORD, make known to me;

teach me your paths,

guide me in your truth and teach me,

for you are God my savior.

Psalm 25: 4-5

not been stocked with supplies over the pandemic. If

you are out and find some of these items and would be willing to

donate them that would be a great help.

Thank you in advance.

Reminder as we move into the year that if your child is not feeling well

on a Wednesday evening that they should stay home. They always have

the option to do the lesson on the web that week. We want to keep our
