CATHOLIC WOMEN OF OUR LADY Minute Meditation

“Recite your Rosary with faith, with humility,

with confidence and with perseverance” —St. Louis de Monfort

Pro Life Fact “The first ‘receiving’ of the child is from the parents, but it does not stop there. We are all

called to ‘receive’ every child who is conceived.”—Source: Fr. Frank Pavone, Pro-Life Reflections for Every Day. 2009

The Assumption of the Blessed

Virgin Mary ~ August 15th The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin

Mary into Heaven at the end of her earthly

life is a defined dogma of the Catholic

Church. On November 1, 1950, Pope Pius

XII, exercising papal infallibility, declared in

Munificentissimus Deus that it is a dogma of the Church

"that the Immaculate Mother of God, the ever Virgin Mary,

having completed the course of her earthly life, was

assumed body and soul into heavenly glory."

Celebrated every year on August 15, the Feast of the

Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary commemorates the

death of Mary and her bodily assumption into Heaven,

before her body could begin to decay--a foretaste of our

own bodily resurrection at the end of time. Because it

signifies the Blessed Virgin's passing into eternal life, it is

the most important of all Marian feasts and a Holy Day of

Obligation. However, since the feast falls on a Saturday in

2015, the holy day of obligation is abrogated in the United

States and some other countries. http://catholicism.about.com/od/holydaysandholidays/p/Assumption.htm

GOD’S WORK We are so busy! Most of us have more

than one job to do, and we never seem to

have enough time. We are

workers, volunteers, parents, friends, and

most of us are more than one thing at a time.

But which of these is the work of God?

We seldom view our ordinary work as being the work

of God. We may think that we have to be ministers or

priests, missionaries or charity workers, engaged full-time

in works formally identified as being “God’s work.” But

everything we do with a faithful heart and with love for

others is God’s work. We each have our own role to fill in

the world, and many gifts are necessary. We cannot always

see the direct connection of our daily work to the plan of

God. But we trust and we believe that God leads us to do

what is needed, where it is needed. What is “God’s work?”

“This is the work of God, that you believe in the one he

sent” (John 6:29) Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

THE BEGINNING

OF EVERYTHING

Everyone recognizes the truth of

good proverbs, and so they endure from

generation to generation. The Russians

have a surprisingly bold one that fits

this Sunday’s Gospel: “Bread is the

beginning of everything.”

Judging from the first reading, Elijah might have

felt that it was too late for bread—too late for life itself.

This great prphet was at the end of his rope and endur-

ance. Then, not one, but two angels visit him. One of-

fers food and drink. The other gives startling directions.

For Elijah, this food from the angels is bread for his

journey. On the strength of the heaven‑sent gift of

food, he walks to the mountain of God.

In today’s Gospel, Jesus offers himself, not just as

bread for the journey, but as bread for life itself. He

gives his flesh as life for the world. “I am the bread of

life” (John 6:48). He is the beginning of everything. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
