Amen This weekend our Mass Presiders are: The Cathedral 6.00pm Saturday 8.00am 10.00am noon 7.30pm Fr Bob Harwood Fr David Pascoe Fr David Pascoe Fr Leonard Uzuegbu Fr Leonard Uzuegbu St Patrick s, Fortitude Valley St Benedict s, East Brisbane St Joseph s Kangaroo Point 9.00am 12 noon 6.00pm Saturday 9.00am Sunday Fr Bob Harwood Fr Michael Rego SM Fr Leonard Uzuegbu Mons Anthony Randazzo Foxes, birds and ploughs Jesus often used images of his surroundings to help us understand the depths and truths of the Kingdom of God. He grew up in the fertile region of Galilee amidst farming areas. He often found himself on mountains or near lakes. He spoke of the flowers being clothed with more grandeur than Solomon s robes and the splendour of a healthy harvest. Some have called Jesus an environmentalist however he was also very real about the challenges of the natural world - the weeds which choked, the branches which did not yield and the grass which is here today but, gone tomorrow. Jesus took the time to notice and to wonder at the events of the natural world which revealed so many truths about its creator. He taught us that it is one thing to see a tree. It is another to wonder at its splendour and its longevity. It is one thing to take the spoils of the harvest. It is another to give thanks for the goodness of God and God s commitment to the creation. What do we notice? How often do we allow ourselves to stop and to appreciate the presence of God in the everyday? For some, the everyday is dodging traffic, making the next appointment and gulping down a meal. Our days are dominated by demands upon us which are not God motivated but rather for selfish gain. Expressions of love and peace and justice are in our hearts but, not always in our diaries and, why should they be? Probably because some lives are so busy that we might need to make an appointment to experience these things. The trouble is, these can be easily postponed if something work driven comes up. Stop and smell the flowers, is an expression from a novel about a golfer. Now, there is a game which sums up life. The odd good shot keeps you interested. The rest get you frustrated. The ball lands on a good lie and the next it is in the sand or the water. The lie of the green is not always what we expected (well, that s my golfing experience). Stopping to smell the flowers is good advice amidst anxious times. The point is, Jesus did stop and Jesus did notice and if we do it more often ourselves, how much more may be revealed to us about the goodness of God and how much more meaning will be given to our lives.

Praise him for his grace and favour To our fathers in distress; Praise him still the same for ever, Slow to chide, and swift to bless. Glorious in his faithfulness. 3. Father-like, he tends and spares us; Well our feeble frame he knows; In his hands he gently bears us, Rescues us from all our foes. Widely as his mercy flows. 4. Angels, help us to adore him; Ye behold him face to face; Sun and moon, bow down before him; Dwellers all in time and space. Praise with us the God of grace! Hail, holy Queen, Mother of Mercy, Hail, our life, our sweetness and our hope. To thee do we cry, Poor banished children of Eve; To thee do we send up our sighs, Mourning and weeping in this valley of tears. Turn then, most gracious advocate, Thine eyes of mercy toward us; And after this our exile, Show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus. O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.

5 COMMUNIO Inclina aurem tuam, accelera, ut eruas nos. Incline thine ear to me, and speedily rescue us. PLAINSONG THE LITURGY OF THE WORD FIRST READING 1 Kings 19: RESPONSORIAL PSALM Ps 15: COMMUNION MOTET At the Solemn Mass, the Choir sings Tantum ergo Sacramentum Veneremur cernui: Et antiquum documentum Novo cedat ritui: Præstet fides supplementum Sensuum defectui. Genitori, Genitoque Laus et jubilatio, Salus, honor, virtus quoque Sit et benedictio: Procedenti ab utroque Compar sit laudatio. Amen. At the 12:00pm Mass, the Schola sings I waited for the Lord, he inclined unto me, he heard my complaint. O blest are they that hope and trust in him. Hence so great a Sacrament Let us venerate with heads bowed And let the old practice Give way to the new rite; Let faith provide a supplement For the failure of the senses. To the Begetter and the Begotten Be praise and jubilation, Hail, honour, virtue also, And blessing too: To the One proceeding from Both Let there be equal praise. Amen. WIDOR MENDELSSOHN Preserve me, God, I take refuge in you. I say to the Lord: 'You are my God.' O Lord, it is you who are my portion and cup; it is you yourself who are my prize. R. I will bless the Lord who gives me counsel, who even at night directs my heart. I keep the Lord ever in my sight: since he is at my right hand, I shall stand firm. R. And so my heart rejoices, my soul is glad; even my body shall rest in safety. For you will not leave my soul among the dead, nor let your beloved know decay. R. You will show me the path of life, the fullness of joy in your presence, at your right hand happiness for ever. R. SECOND READING Galatians 5: GOSPEL ACCLAMATION GOSPEL Luke 9:51-62 HOMILY
