ST. JOSEPH THE WORKER CHURCH

MISSION STATEMENT

We, the members of this Christian Catholic

Community of St. Joseph the Worker Church in

Bonneauville, Pennsylvania, endeavor to live the Gospel of

our Lord Jesus Christ and practice the teachings of that

same Gospel in our worship, our beliefs, what we learn,

and the way in which we serve others.

As a Catholic Community of Faith, Hope, & Love,

we invite others to join us in our goal of renewal, and

welcome them into our gospel fellowship.

IS ANYONE SICK AMONG YOU? Please notify Fr. Benny or Deacon Weaver of any

Please call the parish office to add a name to our prayer list. Help us to keep our list current by letting us know when we may remove a name.

The adoration is a prayer which prolongs

Eucharistic celebration and communion, and in which the

soul continues to nourish itself: it is nourished with love,

with truth, with peace; it nourished itself with hope,

because the One before whom we prostrate does neither

judge us, nor humiliates us, but transforms us and makes us

free. Pope Benedict. We have an Hour of Adoration

each Thursday from 7 PM – 8 PM in our Parish. Please

come and join! Let us spend an hour with Our Lord

and recite together the Evening Prayer.

18th Sunday of Ordinary Time

In the Gospel reading, Jesus says: "Do not work for food that perishes but for the food that endures for eternal life." In other words: In your daily life, work hard to obtain what-ever will nourish your soul and sustain you past death into eternity. Jesus says: "The work God wants you to do is to believe in the one he sent." Why does he call this "work"? To fully believe, we must work at getting rid of every doubt and distrust that interferes with our belief in Christ, our trust in his words (including what he inspired in the official teachings of the Church), and our willingness to conform to his way of life. This work requires (1) identi-fying our vulnerabilities that make us doubt and distrust, (2) uncovering what we're afraid will happen if we do trust, and (3) overcoming that fear by gaining a better un-derstanding of the truth. Any fear that interferes with our holiness is always based on something untrue. Jesus says: "The bread of

God, which nourishes your soul, is that which comes down from heaven and gives life." He’s referring to his presence in the Eucharist, the bread that he provides in every Mass. What work do you need to do so that you can be nourished more fully by the Eucharist? Is there something that's stopping you from receiving the

Eucharist? Work hard to remedy that obstacle! It will make a difference to your eternal soul. If you're sincere about uniting yourself to Christ, he will make possible whatever is needed to clear the way. Because the Eucharist is Jesus, it can heal us, purify us, and help us be-come more like Christ himself. How-ever, it takes conscious effort to fully embrace this opportunity. Why would we want to be lazy about that? The benefits of hard work in our faith life will endure for eternity.

Reflect & Discuss:

1. What raises doubts in your mind about Christ's presence and power in your daily life?

2. What in your relationship with Je-sus needs more work so that your belief in him will give you confi-dent hope that he is guiding you to heaven?

3. How has the Eucharist helped you on your journey to heaven? How has it changed you, purified you?

4. Is it possible that Christ's true presence in the Eucharist can also help those who are unable to receive communion? How so?
