Old Testament

JUDITH IS CAPTURED

Judith 10: 18—16: 25

Judith told the soldiers of Holofernes

(enemy of the Jewish people in Bethu-

lia) that she had decided to go over to

their leader and help him defeat the

Jewish people. None of this was true.

She was actually planning to bring

about the victory herself in the power

of God. She was given a banquet by

Holofernes, but refused to eat any of

the “unclean” food. She had brought

her own kosher food with her. When

Holofernes became sleepy she lost no

time in cutting off his head! Then Ju-

dith and her maid simply walked away

from the camp and back to their own

town. She called to the watchmen,

“Open the gates! God is with us. Once

more he has made manifest his

strength in Israel.” There was a great

celebration in Bethulia that night. Eve-

ryone praised her, but she gave all the

credit to God. As you can imagine,

seeing the headless body of Holofer-

nes put an end to the enemy’s

planned attack.

New Testament

THE SERMON ON THE PLAIN

Luke 6: 17-49

Jesus preached the Sermon on the

Mount which is recorded in Matthew

chapters 5, 6, and 7. A similar ser-

mon is recorded by Luke. Jesus had

come down the mountain and

preached a sermon on the plain. In

this sermon he talked about how

people are blessed by God, especial-

ly those who are poor, who are hun-

gry, and who are sad. He let them

know in advance that as disciples

they would suffer during their life-

times. Jesus used the word “woe”

which is a strong word meaning a

kind of suffering that is deserved.

This word he used for those who

were rich because of not helping the

poor and the hungry. Jesus told us to

love our enemies, to do good without

expecting repayment, and not to

judge anyone. He taught us to give

unselfishly. This sermon contains the

famous parable about the man who

built his house on a rock.

MY FAITH

What is a prayer of

INTERCESSION?

Intercession is a

prayer where we ask

for help for someone

else. It’s OK to tell

the person you are

praying for them.

They are usually glad

to hear that you care

that much about

them. Does someone

need help? sick?

lonely? in a difficult

situation? Pray that

they receive the

strength and cour-

age that only God

can give.

BIBLE BOOKS

The Second Book of

Chronicles starts

with the reign of

King Solomon,

wealthy and wise. He

built the first temple.

In his old age he fol-

lowed pagan gods.

Generations of trou-

ble followed for

God’s people. This

book tells us about

the divided kingdom,

the exiles, and their

return to Jerusalem.

MAY HAS BEEN DESIGNATED AS MENTAL HEALTH MONTH People with mental problems are our neighbors. They are members of our congregations, members of our

families; they are everywhere in this country. If we ignore their cries for help, we will be continuing to partici-

pate in the anguish from which those cries for help come. A problem of this magnitude will not go away.

Because it will not go away, and because of our spiritual commitments, we are compelled to take action.

(Rosalynn Carter)

Look for community events to highlight mental health issues affecting children, adolescents, adults and old-

er adults. This is an opportunity to educate your faith community about mental illness and help them be-

come caring congregations for persons with a mental illness and their families.

REGISTRATION

&

ONLINE GIVING

Every person’s finances

and family situation is

different. Jesus makes it

clear that it matters not

how much one gives, but

that it is planned,

calculated, at least

somewhat sacrificial (see

Luke 24:1-4), and not

simply from what is

“leftover” at the end of the

month. We propose the

tithe (10%) as the ideal

every family can consider

working towards. This

means taking steps to give

5% to one’s parish, and

5% to other charities or

causes you have personal

passion for. You can

register online at

www.saintbrendan.org

and click on the link

“Online Registration/New

Parishioner” on lower left

corner of website and to

give online, click on the

“Online Giving” link. It’s

quick, secure, convenient,

and easy. Your support

helps sustain our parish.

If you need help with

online giving, please call

the Parish Office at

425-483-9400.

MALAWI NEWS This is the “out church” at Lugola, one of 6

churches within the St. Joseph Parish cen-

tered in the main village of Namalaka where

Pastor Fr. Davie Mambo resides. He was

able to provide Easter Sunday services at all

the churches with the help of two additional

priests. Lugola has a health clinic and a

school. It is a bustling “suburb” village.

Lungwena is large as well and has a primary

school with close to 3000 students where we have been able to support a

lunch program for the students so they may focus on their studies. The next

three weeks we are selling raffle tickets in the Narthex for a beautiful hand-

made quilt. The funds raised will assist with flood relief and food insecurity.

The quilt winner will be drawn and announced at the June 1st All Parish Festi-

val of Flavors for Pentecost. mhedden40@hotmail.com
