Parish Mission Statement We, the parish family of St. Anthony Roman Catholic Church welcome all, young and old, active or inactive, committed

or alienated, to enrich their lives by joining and participating in our faith community. We seek to reflect the light of Jesus

Christ by reaching out to serve all, and by sharing our joy and hope, as we continue our faith journey. May our lives,

inspired by the Holy Spirit, and nourished by the Eucharist, bear witness to our love for neighbors near and far.

ST. ANTHONY PARISH COHASSET, MA

Dear Parishioners,

On Monday we celebrate Labor Day, considered by many the

end of the summer season, although the weather this past week

could give one reason to question the proximate ending of

summer. Labor Day is celebrated as a Federal Holiday, having

been first celebrated in New York City on Tuesday, September

1882 in accordance with plans of the Central Labor Union. The

purpose of setting aside Labor Day as a special holiday was to

honor the labor movement and the contributions to society its

members make to the strength, prosperity, laws and the well-

being of our country. Work is understood as human activity

designed to accomplish something needed and values for its

function in civilized life. Work is a term commonly applied to

manual or physical labor, but there is no satisfactory reason for

excluding intellectual or other psychological effort from one’s

understanding of it. Some years ago Father Hug Rahner, the

brother of the great German theologian Father Karl Rahner wrote

a book titled “The Theology of Work.” There was no paucity of

materials from which Father Rahner could draw in his research.

The Bible has an incredible wealth of counsel for work, and

nearly 900 passages apply to ordinary work. Physical work was

held in great esteem among the Hebrews, and work penetrated

the whole fabric of the Old Testament. The Hebrews were a

working people, despite the existence of mitigated forms of

slavery and serfdom. Freed from slavery of Egypt and Yahweh’s

own action, they served God in work, rest and worship.

Throughout the gospels we read of people at work. Work directed

to God merited a divine blessing; evil work, or wrongly

motivated effort, deserved God’s wrath.

There is a movement called Theology of Work Project whose

vision is that every Christian be equipped and committed to work

in God’s interests. A Christian approach makes work more

meaningful and productive, benefits society and the people we

work with and for, gets us through the challenges we face on the

job, draws people to Jesus and brings glory to God. So important

is work in our culture that employment/unemployment statistics

are a vital consideration in the political world of our day. Sincerely,

Fr John R. Mulvehill
