Catholic Quotes St. John Chrysostom

“Therefore let us purge our soul from all re-

sentment. This is sufficient for us, in order that

we may be heard; and let us pray with watch-

ing and much perseverance, that having en-

joyed His bountiful mercy, we may be found

worthy of the good things promised, through

the grace and mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ,

with Whom to the Father, together with the

Holy Spirit, be glory, might, honor, now and

ever, world without end. Amen.”

The heart of God can be moved, because God is a person, not a force. This Christian truth shines

through in today's Gospel. Jesus had a particu-lar mission to accomplish during his earthly

lifetime. He was to fulfill the Old Testament prophecies and lay the foundation of the

Church. The parameters of this mission did not include Canaanites (ancestral enemies of the

Israelites). And yet, Jesus makes an exception to these parame-

ters after his encounter with the Canaanite woman. She touched his heart because she had what Christ's heart

most yearns for: love, faith, and humility. Her love comes across in her self-forgetfulness. She

was so concerned for her daughter, that she was even willing to make a humiliating spectacle

out of herself, tagging along behind a Jewish rabbi in public, screaming to get his attention. Her faith comes across in how she addresses

Jesus. She calls him "Lord" and "Son of Da-vid." She falls on her knees and does him hom-

age - she knows she is in God's presence. She believed in Jesus, so much so, in fact, that Je-

sus himself compliments her on her faith! Her humility comes across in the way she makes her request. She didn't come to him burning

with anger at God for allowing her innocent daughter to be tormented by demons. She understood that mira-

cles were undeserved gifts from God, just like existence itself. Love, faith, and humility: these are the ingredients for prayer

that moves the heart of God.

Prayer for an End to Racism

Mary, friend and mother to all, through your Son, God has found a way to unite himself to every human being,

called to be one people, sisters and brothers to each other.

We ask for your help in calling on your Son, seeking forgiveness for the times

when we have failed to love and respect one another.

We ask for your help in obtaining from your Son the grace we need to overcome the evil of racism

and to build a just society.

We ask for your help in following your Son, so that prejudice and animosity

will no longer infect our minds or hearts but will be replaced with a love that respects

the dignity of each person.

Mother of the Church, the Spirit of your Son Jesus

warms our hearts: pray for us.

From "Open Wide Our Hearts: The Enduring Call to Love", a pastoral letter against racism

“2270 Human life must be respected and protected absolutely from the moment of conception. From the first moment of his existence, a human being must be recognized as having the rights of a person -- among which is the inviolable right of every innocent being to life. (71)”

The Spiritual Communion (Those who are unable to make sacramental Communion

with Christ by participating in the Eucharist, can express the desire to receive him in their spirit with these words that help to

make spiritual communion with him:)

My Jesus, I believe that you are truly present in the Most Holy Sacrament of the Altar. I love you above all things and desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive you sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen

Altar Guild Membership Drive

The St. Elizabeth Altar Guild is con-ducting their 2020-2021 Membership Drive. The yearly membership fee is

$15. Your fee can be mailed to either Judy Munchrath or the church office. You may also bring it to the rectory or drop an envelope into the mail slots on the door. The Altar Guild is a very important part of our Catholic mission.

If you would like to become a registered parishioner, please be sure to complete a registration card (found on the table opposite the water fountain in the rear of the church or ask the Ushers) and turn it in to the Rectory during office hours or place it in the collection basket. Temporary enve-lopes are also available in the rear of the church if you have forgotten to bring your collection envelopes to Mass. Wel-come to the parish!

The Queenship of Mary (Excerpt 1954 Pope Pius XII Encyclical

“AD CAELI REGIAM”) 41. In order to understand better this sublime dignity of the Mother of God over all creatures let us recall that the holy Mother of God was, at the very moment of her Immaculate Conception, so filled with grace as to surpass the grace of all the Saints. Wherefore, as Our Predecessor of happy memory, Pius IX wrote, God 'showered her with heavenly gifts and graces from the treasury of His divinity so far beyond what He gave to all the angels and saints that she was ever free from the least stain of sin; she is so beautiful and perfect, and possesses such fullness of innocence and holiness, that under God a greater could not be dreamed, and only God can comprehend the marvel.' 43. Let all Christians, therefore, glory in being subjects of the

Virgin Mother of God, who, while wielding royal power, is on fire with a mother's love.

Beautiful flowers on the altar during the Mass remind us of the beauty of

God’s creation and our efforts to give Him glory and praise. If you would like to contribute flowers for our Sunday Masses, please contact Bertha at the rectory (214) 331-4328).
