Five children on June 27 and fourteen children on July 10 made their First Communion. Others will receive theirs over the summer, spreading out the sacrament of First Communion as a result of COVID-19 restrictions for large gatherings. As we look ahead to the religious education program this fall, with evolving knowledge of controlling the virus, I hope and expect that we will be able to hold classes in person in some manner. Registration for fall classes is underway and can be completed by going to the parish website, religious education tab. You can also use the following link to register. Please fill out all four forms. The PREP calendar is posted on the website also. https://stlaurenceelgin.org/religious-education/

Readings for Today, Fifteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time

Reading 1: Is 55:10–11 Thus says the LORD: Just as from the heavens the rain and snow come down and do not return there till they have watered the earth, making it fertile and fruitful, giving seed to the one who sows and bread to the one who eats, so shall my word be that goes forth from my mouth; my word shall not return to me void, but shall do my will, achieving the end for which I sent it. Responsorial Psalm: The seed that falls on good ground will yield a fruitful harvest. You have visited the land and watered it; greatly have you enriched it. God’s watercourses are filled; you have prepared the grain. R. The seed that falls on good ground will yield a fruitful harvest. Thus have you prepared the land: drenching its furrows, breaking up its clods, Softening it with showers, blessing its yield. R. The seed that falls on good ground will yield a fruitful harvest. You have crowned the year with your bounty, and your paths overflow with a rich harvest; The untilled meadows overflow with it, and rejoicing clothes the hills. R. The seed that falls on good ground will yield a fruitful harvest. The fields are garmented with flocks and the valleys blanketed with grain. They shout and sing for joy. R. The seed that falls on good ground will yield a fruitful harvest. Reading 2: Rom 8:18–23 Brothers and sisters: I consider that the sufferings of this present time are as nothing compared with the glory to be re-vealed for us. For creation awaits with eager expectation the rev-elation of the children of God; for creation was made subject to futility, not of its own accord but because of the one who subject-ed it, in hope that creation itself would be set free from slavery to corruption and share in the glorious freedom of the children of God. We know that all creation is groaning in labor pains even until now; and not only that, but we ourselves, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, we also groan within ourselves as we wait for adoption, the redemption of our bodies.

Gospel: Mt 13:1–23 or Mt 13:1–9 In the shorter form of the reading, the passages in brackets are omitted. On that day, Jesus went out of the house and sat down by the sea. Such large crowds gathered around him that he got into a boat and sat down, and the whole crowd stood along the shore. And he spoke to them at length in parables, saying: “A sower went out to sow. And as he sowed, some seed fell on the path, and birds came and ate it up. Some fell on rocky ground, where it had little soil. It sprang up at once because the soil was not deep, and when the sun rose it was scorched, and it withered for lack of roots. Some seed fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it. But some seed fell on rich soil, and produced fruit, a hundred or sixty or thirtyfold. Whoever has ears ought to hear.” [ The disciples approached him and said, “Why do you speak to them in parables?” He said to them in reply, “Because knowledge of the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven has been granted to you, but to them it has not been granted. To anyone who has, more will be given and he will grow rich; from anyone who has not, even what he has will be taken away. This is why I speak to them in parables, because they look but do not see and hear but do not listen or under-stand. Isaiah’s prophecy is fulfilled in them, which says: You shall indeed hear but not understand, you shall indeed look but never see. Gross is the heart of this people, they will hardly hear with their ears, they have closed their eyes, lest they see with their eyes and hear with their ears and understand with their hearts and be converted, and I heal them. “But blessed are your eyes, because they see, and your ears, because they hear. Amen, I say to you, many prophets and right-eous people longed to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it. “Hear then the parable of the sower. The seed sown on the path is the one who hears the word of the kingdom without under-standing it, and the evil one comes and steals away what was sown in his heart. The seed sown on rocky ground is the one who hears the word and receives it at once with joy. But he has no root and lasts only for a time. When some tribulation or persecution comes because of the word, he immediately falls away. The seed sown among thorns is the one who hears the word, but then world-ly anxiety and the lure of riches choke the word and it bears no fruit. But the seed sown on rich soil is the one who hears the word and understands it, who indeed bears no fruit. But the seed sown on rich soil is the one who hears the word and understands it, who indeed bears fruit and yields a hundred or sixty or thirtyfold.” ] Excerpts from the Lectionary for Mass for Use in the Dioceses of the United States of America, second typical edition © 2001, 1998, 1997, 1986, 1970 Confraternity of Christian Doctrine, Inc., Washington, DC.

DIOS EN TU INTERIOR: En todo, ya sea en lo conocido o en lo que sólo es percibido, Dios está.—San Buenaventura

Lecturas de Domingo, Decimoquinto Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario

Primera lectura: Is 55, 10–11 Esto dice el Señor: “Como bajan del cielo la lluvia y la nieve y no vuelven allá, sino después de empapar la tierra, de fecundarla y hacerla germinar, a fin de que dé semilla para sembrar y pan para comer, así será la palabra que sale de mi boca: no volverá a mí sin resultado, sino que hará mi voluntad y cumplirá su misión”. Salmo Responsorial: Señor, danos siempre de tu agua. Señor, tú cuidas de la tierra, la riegas y la colmas de riqueza. Las nubes del Señor van por los campos, rebosantes de agua, como acequias. R. Señor, danos siempre de tu agua. Tú preparas las tierras para el trigo: riegas los surcos, aplanas los terrones, reblandeces el suelo con la lluvia, bendices los renuevos. R. Señor, danos siempre de tu agua. Tú coronas el año con tus bienes, tus senderos derraman abundancia, están verdes los pastos del desierto, las colinas con flores adornadas. R. Señor, danos siempre de tu agua. Los prados se visten de rebaños, de trigales los valles se engalanan. Todo aclama al Señor. Todo le canta. R. Señor, danos siempre de tu agua. Segunda lectura: Rom 8, 18-23 Hermanos: Considero que los sufrimientos de esta vida no se pueden comparar con la gloria que un día se mani-festará en nosotros; porque toda la creación espera, con se-guridad e impaciencia, la revelación de esa gloria de los hijos de Dios. La creación está ahora sometida al desorden, no por su querer, sino por voluntad de aquel que la sometió. Pero dándole al mismo tiempo esta esperanza: que también ella misma, va a ser liberada de la esclavitud de la corrupción, para compartir la gloriosa libertad de los hijos de Dios. Sabemos, en efecto, que la creación entera gime hasta el presente y sufre dolores de parto; y no sólo ella, sino también nosotros, los que poseemos las primicias del Espíritu, gemimos interiormente, anhelando que se realice plenamente nuestra condición de hijos de Dios, la redención de nuestro cuerpo.

Evangelio: Mt 13, 1–23 o bien: Mt 13, 1–9 En la forma más corta de la lectura, se omiten los pasajes entre corchetes. Un día salió Jesús de la casa donde se hospedaba y se sentó a la orilla del mar. Se reunió en torno suyo tanta gente, que él se vio obligado a subir a una barca, donde se sentó, mientras la gente permanecía en la orilla. Entonces Jesús les habló de muchas cosas en parábolas y les dijo: “Una vez salió un sembrador a sembrar, y al ir arrojando la semilla, unos granos cayeron a lo largo del camino; vinieron los pájaros y se los comieron. Otros granos cayeron en terreno pedregoso, que tenía poca tierra; ahí germinaron pronto, porque la tierra no era gruesa; pero cuando subió el sol, los brotes se marchi-taron, y como no tenían raíces, se secaron. Otros cayeron entre espinos, y cuando los espinos crecieron, sofocaron las plantitas. Otros granos cayeron en tierra buena y dieron fruto: unos, ciento por uno; otros, sesenta; y otros, treinta. El que tenga oídos, que oiga.” [ Después se le acercaron sus discípulos y le preguntaron: “¿Por qué les hablas en parábolas?” Él les respondió: “A ustedes se les ha concedido conocer los misterios del Reino de los cielos; pero a ellos no. Al que tiene, se le dará más y nadará en la abun-dancia; pero al que tiene poco, aun eso poco se le quitará. Por eso les hablo en parábolas, porque viendo no ven y oyendo no oyen ni entienden. En ellos se cumple aquella profecía de Isaías que dice: Oirán una y otra vez y no entenderán; mirarán y volverán a mirar, pero no verán; porque este pueblo ha endurecido su corazón, ha cerrado sus ojos y tapado sus oídos, con el fin de no ver con los ojos, ni oír con los oídos, ni comprender con el corazón. Porque no quieren convertirse ni que yo los salve. Pero, dichosos ustedes, porque sus ojos ven y sus oídos oyen. Yo les aseguro que muchos profetas y muchos justos desearon ver lo que ustedes ven y no lo vieron y oír lo que ustedes oyen y no lo oyeron. Escuchen, pues, ustedes lo que significa la parábola del sem-brador. A todo hombre que oye la palabra del Reino y no la entiende, le llega el diablo y le arrebata lo sembrado en su corazón. Esto es lo que significan los granos que cayeron a lo largo del camino. Lo sembrado sobre terreno pedregoso significa al que oye la palabra y la acepta inmediatamente con alegría; pero, como es inconstante, no la deja echar raíces, y apenas le viene una tribu-lación o una persecución por causa de la palabra, sucumbe. Lo sembrado entre los espinos representa a aquel que oye la palabra, pero las preocupaciones de la vida y la seducción de las riquezas la sofocan y queda sin fruto. En cambio, lo sembrado en tierra buena, representa a quienes oyen la palabra, la entienden y dan fruto: unos, el ciento por uno; otros, el sesenta; y otros, el treinta”. ]

Here in the middle of summer, many people grow vegetable and flower gardens, or appreciate the work of others by buying produce from roadside stands and farmer’s markets. All our readings today embrace one of God’s smallest but most common miracles as a metaphor: the seed and its cycle, and all that it stands for. Isaiah reminds us that just as God waters the earth and cares for it so that seeds may grow, so the Word of God will come and not return to God until it has borne fruit. Psalm 65 describes the cycle of growth and personifies fields that “shout for joy.” Romans has “creation groaning in labor pains” as it waits for its seed to come to fruition, redemption of the body. Similarly, Jesus teaches the crowds by using the parable of the sower and the seed. GROWTH REQUIRES PATIENCE

Every child in school has experienced the excitement of growing a simple bean seed planted in a paper cup or watched a time lapse video of the growth process. We watch this miracle sprout in a matter of days, and marvel at the whole process. A seed must be planted and die to itself in order to create a new life. Then it must be fertilized and watered and cared for. But most importantly, one must be patient and wait. Seeds take a certain amount of time to develop and may require being dormant for a while. Similarly, a human baby takes nine months to grow from the time the seed is fertilized.

But no matter what we do, and how well we do it, not all seeds will yield fruit. Sometimes the conditions are just not right to allow it. Not all preg-nancies go full term. Farmers know the pain of a drought year, or storms that ruin a crop before it can be harvested. Diseases and blight and other things can take hold.

SOME WILL BE LOST

Growing up in the Western states, beautiful fields of wheat and beans were a common sight for me, but I did not fully understand this parable until going to the Holy Land and seeing the rocky ground that Jesus spoke of. This was an “aha” moment, as I witnessed what a miracle it was when something had the strength and tenacity to grow among the crags despite the arid conditions. What a sign of faith and trust and hope even to plant crops there, knowing that some would be lost! It would seem easier to write them all off, or even less work not to plant them at all.

Jesus could do that to us, but he has not. He has faith and trust that a number of the seeds planted in us will bear great fruit. They will not wither and fade away, but will produce fruit, a hundred-, or sixty- or thirty-fold. And his faith in us gives us hope. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

CRECER REQUIERE DE PACIENCIA Cada niño en la escuela ha tenido la experiencia de ver crecer una semilla de frijol en un vaso de papel o ver una grabación de video del tiempo transcurrido del proceso de crecimiento. Observamos el brote milagroso de esta semilla en pocos días, y nos maravillamos de todo el proceso. Una semilla debe ser plantada y morir a sí misma para crear una nueva vida. Luego se debe fertilizar, regar y cuidarse. Pero lo más importante, uno debe ser paciente y esperar. Las semillas requieren de cierto tiempo para desarrollarse y requieren estar inactivas durante un tiempo. De la misma manera, a un bebé humano le lleva nueva meses para crecer desde que la semilla es fecundada. Pero no importa lo que hagamos, y que tan bien lo hagamos, no todas las semillas darán fruto. Algunas veces las condiciones no son las adecuadas para permitirlo. No todos los embarazos llegan a término. Los agricultores conocen el dolor de un año de sequía, o de las tormentas que arruinan los campos antes de la cosecha. Las enfermedades, las plagas y otras cosas pueden arriesgar la cosecha.

ALGUNOS SE PERDERÁN Crecí en los estados del Oeste estadounidense y para mí fue muy común ver los campos de trigo y frijol, pero solo entendí bien esta parábola hasta que fui a Tierra Santa y vi el suelo rocoso del que Jesús habló. Ese fue un momento de “aja”, pues fui testigo del milagro de la tenacidad y fuerza para crecer de algo en medio de peñascos y condiciones áridas. ¡Qué signo de fe, confianza y esperanza se debe tener para plantar un cultivo allí, sabiendo que algunos se perderán! Parecería más fácil descartarlas a todas, o incluso trabajar menos para no plantarlas. Jesús podría hacernos eso, pero no lo ha hecho. Él tiene fe y confianza en que varias de las semillas plantadas en nosotros darán grandes frutos. No se marchitarán ni se desvanecerán, sino que producirán fruto, un ciento, sesenta o treinta veces más. Y su fe en nosotros nos da esperanza. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

GOD WITHIN: In everything, be it a thing sensed or a thing known, God is hidden within.—St. Bonaventure

God’s Word for Children

Remember O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession was left unaid-ed. Inspired by this confidence I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word In-carnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen.
