Welcome Friends A warm Star of the Sea welcome to our guests on this Walk for Life weekend! We hope you find our parish a refuge of prayer and home away from home. May

God reward you for making the sacrifice to come all this way to defend the lives of our youngest children. I also thank God for our parish-ioners who have assiduously pre-pared to welcome you. Thanks to Maggie Tuttle, who coordinated lodging for 210 young people from the following six communities: Wyoming Catholic College (Lander, WY); St. Mary?s High School (Phoenix); St. Timothy?s Parish (Mesa, AZ); Western Oregon Students for Life; St. Au-gustine Academy (Ventura, CA); St. Anne?s Parish (San Diego). It?s quite a spectrum, from LifeTEEN to the Fraternity of St. Pe-ter, all united in adoration of the Holy Eucharist and in humble thanksgiving for the gift of human life. We thank Grand Knight Bud Feria and his Knights of Columbus for providing our citywide bar-becue on Saturday night, and Sr. Maria Concepta and her Sisters of Life for lead-ing our Holy Hour, and Dr. Pat Kastle from LifeRunners for speaking to us with the sisters. Walk for Life is essentially moved by young people (like our dearest

Eva Muntean and Dolores Meehan) and feels a lot like World Youth Day itself (I?ve been to eight of them in my years, but had to miss Panama this week to be right here our own Youth Day in San Francisco). The joy of our gathering her in the city of St. Francis contrasts starkly with the anger and fear of those who promote abortion and other unnatural practices. Only in His Will is our peace! True joy is to follow the Laws of Nature and of Nature?s God (as

our Declaration of Independence puts it). May God be with us all, friends and oppo-nents alike! Classical School I welcome to my old friend Mr. Michael Van

Hecke, the headmaster, St. Augustine Academy, a ?Classical School? in Southern California. He comes with forty students and faculty to the Walk for Life. You might know we are transforming our own school into an Integrated Classical Pro-gram with their help. Another friend of mine, Fr. Peter Irving, ?went classical? with his parish school (Holy Innocents in Long Beach) three years ago and doubled his enrollment. It took a lot of work, and San Francisco is not Long Beach, but we are on our way. Michael Ortner, a DC tech entrepreneur, will be speaking on Monday on the ?classical advantage? for tech ca-reers on Monday night at 6pm in the au-ditorium. It should be a most interesting presentation. Fr. Joseph Illo frilloblog.com

The Sunday Scriptures by Fr.

In Luke's account, Our Lord begins his public ministry with these words: "Today, this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing." Listen well to the Word of God at Mass today, and see how it is fulfilled here in San Francisco on this Walk for Life weekend.

STAR OF THE SEA STEWARDSHIP PRAYER

Almighty and Eternal God, we thank you for everything we have and are. We believe that everything is a grace from your fatherly providence. Most of all, we thank You for Jesus, your Son and our Redeemer, who shows the way to eternal life through his Passion, Death, and Resurrection. Our Lord was the perfect steward of your gifts, receiving only to give, and giving only to receive.

Filled with the burning desire to be His disciples, we long to imitate the life of Your Christ. With grateful hearts we offer our prayers, our talents, and our material resources in the same spirit of trustful surrender, by the grace of Jesus Christ, in the Unity of the Holy Spirit, one God forever and ever. Amen.
