Question of the Week Who was Saint Augustine?
“You made us for yourself, and our hearts are restless
until they rest in You.” The man we know as Augustine of
Hippo (feast day August 28) made this passionate
declaration to God in his Confessions written in Africa in
the fourth century. A prolific writer and even more
famous orator, this impassioned thinker and Christian
convert wrote some of the earliest extended scripture
commentaries. He left an indelible mark on teachings
concerning baptism, original sin, chastity, and doctrines
about Jesus as well. He chased suspicious ideas around the
church tirelessly and defined orthodoxy on many issues.
For a lot of folks, however, Augustine fascinates as a
person: Sexual desire and intellectual craving for
knowledge were the twin demons of his life. His restless
heart found repose in the mystery of God reluctantly—but
not without a considerable struggle that he chose to
document personally for us.
The man who would become Saint Augustine was once a
faithless lover, an unreliable dad, a lousy prospect for a
husband, and a guy who regularly broke his mother’s
heart. That he also became an irreplaceable paving stone
in church thought is wonderfully encouraging for all of us
who currently fall short of who we might yet be. - Alice Camille

“Every good and perfect gift is from above” (James 1:17). You likely have received at least one request from Bishop Christopher Coyne requesting your support of the Bishop’s Annual Appeal. We are getting closer to our goal and ask that you prayerfully consider the request and respond generously. In addition to monies distributed for charitable works, such as Vermont Catholic Charities’ Emergency Aid, the Diocese is a valuable resource to all parishes, both large and small. Our parish is now at 57.06% of our pledge goal. Thank you to all who have participated so far.
To date, our pledge goal progress is $17,163 toward a total goal of $30,081.
Kids’ Corner ~ Sharing the Gospel In today's Gospel a little girl was so sick that
people thought she was dead. However,
Jesus said she was just asleep. He held her
hand and said, "Get up, little girl." Every day you work hard
doing chores at home and learning at school. If you are tired
and do not want to get out of bed, Jesus will hold your hand
and say, "Get up and enjoy the day."
Prayer Lord, help me get out of bed quickly to learn about your
world. Something to Draw Draw a little girl in bed with Jesus holding her hand. Mission for the Week Make a Get Well card and give it to someone who is sick.
