SEPT. 1, 2019 22ND SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME ARCHDIOCESE ANNOUNCEMENTS Prayer Chain Phone # 694-4771 Readings::Sirach 3:17–18, 20, 28–29 Psalm 68:4–7,10–11 Hebrews 12:18–19, 22–24.Luke 14:1, 7–14 We come to the wedding banquet of heaven by way of humility and charity. This is the fatherly instruction we hear in today’s First Reading, and the message of to- day’s Gospel. Jesus is not talking simply about good table manners. He is revealing the way of the kingdom, in which the one who would be greatest would be the servant of all (see Luke 22:24–27). This is the way, too, that the Father has shown us down through the ages—filling the hungry, sending the rich away empty, lifting up the lowly, pulling down the proud (see Luke 1:52–53). We again call to mind the Exodus in today’s Psalm— how in His goodness the Lord led the Israelites from imprisonment to prosperity, rained down bread from heaven, made them His inheritance, becoming a “Father of orphans.” We now have also gained a share of His inheritance. We are to live humbly, knowing we are not worthy to receive from His table (see Luke 6:7; 15:21). We are to give alms, remembering we were ransomed from sin by the price of His blood (see 1 Corinthians 6:19–20). The Lord promises that if we are humble we will be ex- alted and find favor with God; that if we are kind to those who can never repay us, we will atone for sins and find blessing in the resurrection of the righteous. We anticipate the fulfillment of those promises in every Eucharist, today’s Epistle tells us. In the Mass, we enter the festal gathering of the angels and the firstborn chil- dren of God. It is the liturgy of the heavenly Jerusalem in which Jesus is the high priest, the King who calls us to come up higher (see Proverbs 25:6–7) --Scott Hahn Copyright © 2019 The St. Paul Center for Biblical The- ology, All rights reserved. CLARE HOUSE—Due to budget cuts Clare House is creating a volunteer pool to help keep the Women’s shelter operating during the day. The shifts are broken down to two three-hour shifts, 9 am-12 pm or 12 pm to 3 pm. Duties will consist of answering phone calls, signing off on chores, answering the door intercom, processing donations, helping in the kitchen, and interacting with participants in the program including children. If you are interested, you may complete a volunteer application: https://www.cssalaska.org/get-involved/ volunteer/volunteer-application/ or call Brigette Guzy (222-7384) Questions?
