NINETEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME AUGUST 7TH, 2011<br />

MISSION STATEMENT<br />

Loved and chosen by God, we are <strong>the</strong> <strong>Parish</strong> of <strong>Christ</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>King</strong> In Springfield, Illinois.<br />

Through Baptism, we share responsibility for continuing <strong>the</strong> mission of Jesus.<br />

We are called to be stewards who foster and support <strong>the</strong> gifts given to each by <strong>the</strong> Spirit.<br />

TODAY WE CELEBRATE THE 19TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME.<br />

We hear <strong>the</strong> gospel that follows <strong>the</strong> story of <strong>the</strong> miraculous feeding of <strong>the</strong> 5000.<br />

It is <strong>the</strong> account of one of Peter’s professions of faith and tells us so much more<br />

about Jesus, for Peter boldly proclaims “He is truly <strong>the</strong> Son of God.” (Mt. 14:33)<br />

The disciples of Jesus are ordered to precede him to <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r side of <strong>the</strong> lake.<br />

Jesus remains on shore in deep prayer. The boat starts to toss and turn. For Mat<strong>the</strong>w<br />

<strong>the</strong> boat symbolizes <strong>the</strong> church as it struggles to survive in a dangerous and<br />

hostile environment. Jesus <strong>com</strong>es to <strong>the</strong> disciples walking on water; <strong>the</strong>y be<strong>com</strong>e<br />

frightened and assume it is a ghost and <strong>the</strong>ir response is fear. Jesus tells <strong>the</strong>m,<br />

“Do not be afraid.”<br />

Peter demands Jesus prove himself by inviting him to <strong>com</strong>e to him [Peter] on<br />

<strong>the</strong> water. Peter gets frightened and begins to sink. He cries out to Jesus for help.<br />

Jesus catches him and scolds him for his lack of faith. Peter is reprimanded not<br />

because he has weak faith but because he doubted Jesus was <strong>com</strong>ing to <strong>the</strong>m on<br />

<strong>the</strong> water. For Mat<strong>the</strong>w this story is about having courage and believing that <strong>the</strong><br />

Lord is present in <strong>the</strong> church. This is especially challenging when <strong>the</strong> church<br />

seems to be sinking and getting battered from all sides.<br />

Peter so well represents believers who doubt. We doubt because we are afraid<br />

and we are afraid because <strong>the</strong> forces that surround us seem so vast and powerful<br />

that <strong>the</strong>y are beyond our control. We feel as though we are sinking. The story says,<br />

“Take courage it is I; do not be afraid.”<br />

AUGUST 15, MONDAY, is <strong>the</strong> Solemnity of <strong>the</strong> Assumption of <strong>the</strong><br />

Blessed Virgin Mary. This is a holyday of obligation for all Catholics in <strong>the</strong><br />

United States. Due to <strong>the</strong> fact that <strong>the</strong> holyday falls on a Monday, <strong>the</strong> obligation<br />

to attend mass is lifted for Catholics in our diocese. Mass for <strong>the</strong> Assumption<br />

will be celebrated at 6:30am. In 1950 Pope Pius XII defined <strong>the</strong> dogma of<br />

<strong>the</strong> Assumption of <strong>the</strong> Virgin Mary “when <strong>the</strong> course of her earthly life was<br />

finished was taken up body and soul into heavenly glory, and exalted by <strong>the</strong><br />

Lord as Queen of all things.”<br />

THE 2011-2012 SCHOOL YEAR is soon upon us. <strong>Christ</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>King</strong> School formally<br />

starts with our registration day on Thursday, August 18th in <strong>the</strong> gym. Several of our<br />

grades as well as preschool on Tuesday/Thursday still have openings available.<br />

Let us pray that our staff, students and families have a successful year of learning<br />

and <strong>com</strong>ing to know more about Jesus, <strong>the</strong> Way, <strong>the</strong> Truth, and <strong>the</strong> Life!<br />

A BIG AND GRATEFUL THANK YOU from myself and my entire family on<br />

<strong>the</strong> expressions of sympathy, masses, prayers and monetary offerings on <strong>the</strong><br />

recent death of my mo<strong>the</strong>r: Rosie Lantz. She lived a long and full life and now<br />

she enjoys <strong>the</strong> peace of heaven. A special thank you as well to <strong>the</strong> funeral<br />

luncheon <strong>com</strong>mittee for ac<strong>com</strong>modating so many, and to all who provided<br />

dishes—Thank you! What a great parish family we have at <strong>Christ</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>King</strong>!!!<br />

Have a good week!<br />

MAY GOD REWARD YOUR GENEROSITY<br />

August 7—19 Sunday in Ordinary Time<br />

It is so easy to miss God’s presence in our lives. Preachers<br />

often talk about great signs signaling major events.<br />

We hear stories about saints who performed miracles or<br />

had wondrous visions. So perhaps, it is understandable<br />

that we expect God to be ac<strong>com</strong>panied by some sort of<br />

obvious fanfare and drama. The story of Elijah listening<br />

for <strong>the</strong> Lord, reminds us that God is most likely to <strong>com</strong>e<br />

in a “tiny whispering sound.” Are you learning to listen<br />

more closely so that you can hear <strong>the</strong> Lord’s “tiny whispers?”<br />

What can you do to improve your hearing?<br />

I will hear who God proclaims:<br />

The Lord—for he proclaims peace.<br />

—-Psalm 85:9<br />

“Take courage, it is I; do not be afraid.” No matter<br />

how strong <strong>the</strong> winds, Jesus is <strong>the</strong>re to take our hands and<br />

guide our marriage. The next Worldwide Marriage Encounter<br />

Weekend in this area is September 23rd through<br />

<strong>the</strong> 25th. Early registration is highly re<strong>com</strong>mended. To<br />

register or for more information call 888-889-9963<br />

Breakfast Benefit for St. Clare’s Clinic<br />

An all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet will be held on Sunday,<br />

August 14 from 8am until noon at Knights of Columbus<br />

St. Clare’s Health Clinic. For questions, call <strong>the</strong><br />

Council Office at 787-2360.<br />

ELECTRONIC GIVING:<br />

forms are available at <strong>the</strong> church exits and parish<br />

NINETEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME AUGUST 7TH, 2011<br />

The incredible success of <strong>Christ</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>King</strong>’s 2nd Annual Vacation Bible<br />

School “PandaMania” is <strong>the</strong> result of <strong>the</strong> work of more than 120 volunteers.<br />

Our planning <strong>com</strong>mittee decided to expand our program this summer<br />

to add an additional 20 preschoolers to our already 150 elementary<br />

age student group. Our 2011 Mission was <strong>the</strong> “1000 Baby Item Challenge”<br />

to support <strong>the</strong> services of <strong>the</strong> Mini O’Beirne Crisis Nursery. Each<br />

day our children and volunteers brought in more and more donations for<br />

<strong>the</strong> crisis nursery. By Friday we had collected an astounding 1128 baby<br />

and food items to donate to <strong>the</strong> nursery! In addition <strong>the</strong> children worked<br />

toge<strong>the</strong>r to make 34 hand-tied baby blankets that we sent to <strong>the</strong> nursery.<br />

Thank you to all of our volunteers! Your support during <strong>the</strong> planning,<br />

decorating, set-up, <strong>the</strong> event, and clean-up was invaluable!<br />

Every year our Station Leaders nominate a youth crew leader to receive<br />

<strong>the</strong> Outstanding Youth Leader Award. The five winners from this year<br />

were: Jesse de Castro, Dani Healey, Zack Scott, Emily Sestak, and Sarah<br />

Treat. These five individuals stood out for a number of reasons from encouraging<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir children each day, engaging with <strong>the</strong>ir kids, and exemplifying<br />

God’s Love! Great job everyone!<br />

ROMAN MISSAL—Third Edition<br />

What is <strong>the</strong> timeline for <strong>the</strong> approval and implementation<br />

of <strong>the</strong> Roman Missal?<br />

After <strong>the</strong> Latin Missale Romanum was published in<br />

2002, <strong>the</strong> International Commission on English in <strong>the</strong><br />

Liturgy (ICEL) began its work of preparing a draft<br />

English translation of <strong>the</strong> text. ICEL presented <strong>the</strong><br />

first section—<strong>the</strong> Order of Mass which contains <strong>the</strong><br />

fixed prayers of <strong>the</strong> Mass, including <strong>the</strong> people’s<br />

parts—to <strong>the</strong> English-speaking conferences of bishops<br />

in 2004. The United States Conference of Catholic<br />

Bishops (USCCB) approved <strong>the</strong> final version in<br />

2006, and <strong>the</strong> Holy See confirmed this section in<br />

June 2008. The remaining sections were approved<br />

between 2007 and 2009. The USCCB <strong>com</strong>pleted its<br />

approval of <strong>the</strong> Roman Missal in November 2009.The<br />

Holy See granted <strong>the</strong> final approval of <strong>the</strong> text in <strong>the</strong><br />

spring of 2010. Cardinal Francis George, OMI, president<br />

of <strong>the</strong> USCCB, announced that parishes must<br />

begin <strong>the</strong> revised translation on November 27, 2011,<br />

<strong>the</strong> weekend of <strong>the</strong> First Sunday of Advent.<br />
