"Whoever wishes to come after me must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me." In this famous passage about Christian discipleship, we usually tend to focus on Jesus' call to take up our cross. This can feel frightening or unattractive to us. It can seem as though the choice to be Christian is a choice for pain and suffering. But we must not forget the last part of this verse: Jesus tells us to follow him. He is walking

this journey ahead of us. He is the one who first takes up the cross. We are simply called to follow in his footsteps. Think of how much easier it is to follow a path that someone else has already trod. Think about hiking, for example, and consider what's involved in "blazing your own trail." You have to advance face-first into the brambles and bushes; you have to navigate the right direction to your destination; you have to scale the hills and cross the waters without the aid of stair or bridge. On the other hand, when we hike on a path that someone else has created, we are spared all of these extra trials. Yes, the journey may still be intense, but we make it with great comfort and confidence, knowing that we are going in the right direction and that we have every advantage along the way thanks to someone else's efforts. This is what it is to follow the path of Christ. Every human person will have their "crosses," whether they are Christian or not. Physical pain, disappointment, rejection, grief, and the like are not unique to the followers of Jesus. What's unique is that our Lord and Savior has walked this path before us. Through his passion and cross, Jesus has taken all of this into his own hands, blazing a trail that safely leads each of us to the joy of resurrection. LPI, Inc.

24º Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario Pedro contesta rápidamente al Señor, dando la respuesta que las personas sintetizaban de figuras proféticas y bíblicas. Su fe era sincera, aunque todavía poco profunda: algo así como decir de dientes para fuera, no desde el fondo del corazón. No es hasta los días de la Pasión que Pedro conoce mediante su traición y negación lo que significa una fe profunda. ¡Vaya que conocer a profundidad su fe le costó lágrimas! Ni Pedro ni sus compañeros entendían lo que era seguir a Jesús. El mesianismo de Cristo debía pasar por su sufrimiento y muerte en la cruz. El profeta Isaías nos lo muestra en la lectura de hoy, como el siervo sufriente: "Ofrecí la espalda a los que me golpeaban, la mejilla a los que me tiraban la barba. No aparté mi rostro de los insultos y salivazos" (Is 50, 6). Muchas veces, tampoco nosotros entendemos el significado de tomar la cruz para seguir a Jesús. Cada día tiene su propio afán; cada día tiene su propia carga. El mensaje lo resume Santiago en su carta: seguir a Jesús es aceptar su estilo de vida, servir a pesar de la carga pesada que llevamos y vivir la fe y obras en una forma balanceada. ¿Cómo entendemos nosotros este mensaje? ¿Cuál es la cruz de mi vida? ¿La llevo con dignidad? Es bueno tener en mente que de nada nos sirve decir que amamos a los demás si en ocasiones no amamos ni respetamos a los de la propia familia. De nada nos vale decir que somos cristianos solo durante el ratito que estamos en Misa si al salir de ahí vivimos como si no lo fuéramos. Jesús nos pregunta hoy, ¿quién soy para ti? ¿Cuál es nuestra respuesta? LPI, Inc.

registered parishioner makes the process much easier when it is time for infant baptism, school or religious education registration, weddings, when asked to be a baptismal or confirmation sponsor, and even funerals. A registered parishioner receives all parish mailings, too. Church law advises that territories or boundaries no longer limit parish registration. All Souls accepts anyone who wants to share in the life of the parish regardless of where they live. In order to register, you need to complete a which registration card.

I would like to offer a heartfelt thank you to all of you serving as Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion at All Souls. We are in need of individuals (presently serving in our parish as EMHC’s) to serve in our Ministry to the Sick (MTS). Eucharistic Ministers to the Sick take communion to those who cannot attend Mass because of illness, injury or age issues. These ministers keep parishioners connected to our parish and bring them the comfort and strength of the Eucharist during difficult times in their lives. We minister to people in their homes, in nursing homes, assisted living facilities , hospitals, and retirement communities within our parish. Time commitment for this ministry varies by minister. Some choose to commit to bringing communion to a homebound parishioner weekly for many years. Ministers choose the commitments that fit their work schedule and family needs. We firmly believe that the Holy Spirit guides our Minister to the homebound parishioner who needs them the most. If you would be willing to offer your time and prayerful support to those that are unable to attend Mass, your involvement as a MTS member would be greatly appreciated. Please contact Adam Heyboer at 407.697.4402 for more information. God bless you, Father Gilbert Medina.

There will be a speaker at all of our Masses next weekend, Sept. 19 & 20 and a diocesan collection in all of the parishes of the Diocese of Orlando for our Sister Diocese in the Dominican Republic. Please use the envelope in your church envelope packet. This collection will be taken up with our regular offertory collection. Your donations are truly appreciated.
