3 Reshaping Fatherhood: A Father s Day Reflection By Mark Mallett Fatherhood is one of the most amazing gifts from God. And it s time we men truly reclaim it for what it is: an opportunity to reflect the very face of the heavenly Father. Fatherhood has been framed by feminists as an abuse, by Hollywood as a burden, by machomen as a killjoy. But there is nothing more lifegiving, more fulfilling, more honorable than to generate new life with one s wife and then have the opportunity and privileged obligation to nourish, defend, and shape that new life into another image of God. Fatherhood sets a man as a priest over his own home, which means to become a servant to his wife and children, to lay his very life down for them. And in this way, he shows them the face of Christ, who is the reflection of the Heavenly Father. Oh, what an impact a dad can have! What a gift a holy man can be! The Scriptures highlight three holy fathers: Abraham, David, and Saint Joseph. And each one of them reveals an interior disposition necessary for every man to show the face of Christ to his family and the world. Abraham: Father of Faith. He never let anything, not even the love of his family could come between him and God. What children need to see today is a dad who puts God above everything and everyone which is, in fact, putting his family s and neighbor s best interest at heart. The dad who prays and obeys is a living icon of faith. David: Father of Humility. He was handsome, successful, and rich, but David also knew he was a great sinner. His humility was expressed in psalms of tears, a man who faced himself for who he truly was. What children need to see today is not Superman, but a real man a man who is transparent, human, and in need of a Savior; a man who is no afraid to admit his wife is right, to apologize to his children when eh has failed, and to be seen standing in the confessional line. Joseph: Father of Integrity. He honored Mary, and he honored his angelic visitors. Joseph was ready to do anything to protect those he loved, honor his own name, and honor the name of Dog. What children need to see today is not a wealthy businessman, but an honest one; not a successful man, but a faithful one; not a lazy man, but a hard worker who does not cut corners or compromise, even if it costs him. Dear fathers, my dear brothers in Christ, by being a man of faith, Abraham became the father of many; by being a man of humility, David established an everlasting throne; by being a man of integrity, Joseph became the Protector and Defender of the entire Church. What will God make of you if you are a man of all three? Happy Father s Day and God Bless! Father Richard York, your Pastor

4 Saint Francis of Assisi Church Pastor s Message June 14, th Anniversary Brothers and Sisters, At this time of year, we are curtailing all our meetings and activities. We all need to take time to rest and enjoy some down time. It is necessary to attend to projects that we are not able to do during the busy visitor season. Our Parish Office will have reduced hours in order for the Staff to do inventory, filing, end of year reports, paining, scrubbing, and so many other projects. At our Church, we continue spiritually to focus each month on our Spiritual Birthday (1 st Sunday) our Confirmation (2 nd Sunday); the blessing of your Marriage Anniversary (3 rd Sunday); and the importance of a reverent and frequent reception of Holy Communion. The primary Sacrament is the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass on Sunday. This year is the 40 th Anniversary of our Church. Saint Francis of Assisi Church in Grove City has offered the Sacraments at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass every day for 40 years. As testimony to our life as a Catholic Eucharistic Community, ADORATION and BENEDICTION of the Holy Eucharist is now in our Church EVERY Friday morning after the Mass at 8:15am. Especially during this our Anniversary Year, I encourage you to join the 40 Adorers at Adoration from 9:00am to 10:00am each Friday. Many Parishioners participate in Benediction at 10:00am. I encourage every Parishioner who is able, especially our Retired to offer 10 minutes to a half hour of prayer before the Blessed Sacrament at Saint Francis of Assisi Parish at FRIDAY ADORATION. Honor our PAST Visit Church to say Thank You Celebrate the Present Visit Church to pray for Someone special in your life Pray for the Future Visit Church to pray for Our Children and Youth God Bless Us, Father Richard York, your Pastor
