DESCRIPTION
Immaculte Heart of Mary Church Sunday BulletinTRANSCRIPT
August 14, 2011 WHY PRAY? The “foreigners” as Isaiah calls them, the “Gentiles” as Paul calls them, or the “Canaanites” as Matthew calls them are called to worship the one true God in prayer. As we listen to today’s readings, perhaps we are tempted to ask: Why pray? The question is rhetorical; it is tantamount to asking why should friends talk to one another or people in love kiss one another. Prayer is a way of relating to God, a way of talking to God. The apostles had the opportunity to talk to Jesus in the flesh. We have the opportunity to talk to Jesus Christ in prayer. Our relationship with him must be enthusiastic; it cannot be faint-hearted. John Donne, a fifteenth-century poet, knew what the
qualities of good prayer were. Donne asks God to treat him differently from most Christians. The poet does not want God to merely “knock, breathe, shine, and seek to mend,” but also to “break, blow, burn, and make me new” (Holy Sonnets, XIV). It takes a dynamic faith on our part to come to God in prayer. As Jesus once said, “Knock and the door will be opened to you” (Matthew 7:7). It may take pounding the door down, but if we are as persistent as the woman in today’s Gospel, the results will follow. © Copyright, J. S. Paluch Co.

DID YOU KNOW? What’s Your Plan in the Event of an Emergency?
~ Did you know that every Catholic school in the Los
Angeles Archdiocese is required to have a written plan for
emergency procedures? The plan must include provisions for fire,
earthquake, disaster and evacuation drills and lockdown
procedures that conform to local, state and county requirements.
Each school’s plan must be updated annually, and made
available to parents. Does your own family have a similar plan
for what to do and where to gather in the event of an
emergency? City and County disaster preparedness agencies are a good resource to use for making your own emergency plan. For particular help, you may call Assistance Ministry
at (213) 637-7650.

Cuál es su plan en caso de emergencia?
¿Sabía usted que cada escuela católica en la Archidiócesis de Los Ángeles tiene un plan de
emergencia escrito? El plan incluye disposiciones para el
incendio, terremoto, ejercicios de desastre y plan de evacuación
que cumple con requisitos a nivel local y estatal. El plan de cada
escuela es actualizado anualmente y esta a la
disposición de los padres. ¿Tiene su propia familia un plan similar para saber qué hacer y dónde reunirse en caso
de una emergencia? Las agencias de preparación en caso de desastres de la ciudad y el
condado son un buen recurso y pueden ayudarle a preparar su propio plan de emergencia. Para obtener ayuda, llame a la
Oficina del Ministerio de Ayuda al (213) 637-7650.
