Just in case being in church makes us proudly consider ourselves especially religious, today’s Gospel suggests that we’d be wiser to admit that we’re sometimes lost. Then we’ll eventually be happily counted among Jesus’ “found,” because today Jesus focuses on a lost sheep, lost coin, lost son. Jesus does so because the Pharisees and scribes, proudly considering themselves especially religious, “began to complain” that Jesus “welcomes sinners and eats with them.” So Jesus warns them—and us—to stop judging others. Marvel instead that God’s amazing grace has found us! Indeed, we should become Jesus’ friends lovingly trying to ϐind others. So Exodus asks, if God “relented in punishment” and pardoned us, shouldn’t we forgive fellow sinners graciously? Even Paul admits his “arrogance” as “foremost among sinners.” We too, happy at being “mercifully treated,” should share with everyone else Jesus’ unfailing patience. Copyright © J. S.

Dear Parishioners,

Today we open our Religious Education Program which is the religious instruction for

Catholic children who are students in Public Schools.

We are fortunate to have Deacon Rachid Murad as our Faith Formation Director, his

secretary, Mrs. Cynthia Velez and a dedicated staff of voluntary catechists.

Perhaps you might have spare time on a Sunday morning and could serve in a variety

of capacities to assist the program. If you have any questions, simply call the Faith Formation

Office at 718-748-6553.

As you know our Annual Joseph Moran Memorial Golf Outing will be held on Friday,

September 27th, at Dyker Heights Golf Course and the luncheon will be held in our gym.

This year we have postponed the 50/50 raffle until later in the Fall so you will be

hearing from me about that.

I am very grateful to all of you for your support of the Annual Catholic Appeal. We

have paid off our diocesan goal so we are now working for our parish.

For every $100.00 gift paid, the donor will receive a chance in the raffle on December 8th.

Let’s pray for each other,

Msgr. Kevin B. Noone
