The first, a vision reported by the prophet Daniel, was well known to Jesus and his apostles. The vision account was written in quite mystical and figurative language. It is a vision of heaven, powerful and memorable. There are flames of fire, burning wheels, the Ancient One, and a Son of Man. Clearly, Daniel saw something. But was it a dream? Was it real? Was it merely a clever myth? Peter wants no such confusion about his vision! We are told in Matthew s Gospel what he and his friends James and John saw when they went up on the mountain with Jesus one day. Jesus warned the three witnesses to tell no one until the Son of Man has been raised from the dead (Matthew 17:9). Lest readers of one of the Gospels discount the story or simply write it off as a pious myth, Peter gives his own account of the Transfiguration of Jesus in his second letter to the church. He writes with authority, as an eyewitness. He reports this message from God concerning Jesus: This is my Son, my beloved, with whom I am well pleased, and he assures us that the message is altogether reliable (2 Peter 1:17, 19). Copyright J. S. Paluch Co., Inc. First Reading I saw one like a Son of man coming on the clouds of heaven (Daniel 7:9-10, 13-14). Psalm The Lord is king, the most high over all the earth (Psalm 97). Second Reading Be attentive to the prophetic message, as to a lamp shining in a dark place (2 Peter 1:16-19). Gospel Jesus was transfigured, and his clothes became white as light (Matthew 17:1-9). SING YOUR SONG Alas for those who never sing, but die with their music within them. Oliver Wendell Holmes

Where are our 15 guests now? The Village House Program, (SFC Helping Others) Village House: An Interfaith Shelter of Hope program ran by the city of San Jose. The ladies have just moved to the eight location St. John Vianney. After leaving SFC last March the ladies spent the last five months at Willow Glen United Methodist (April), St. Paul United Methodist (May), St. Julie s Parish and have just left Cathedral of Faith. Four ladies from our month of March group have placed and moved on. We are currently at 14 women and will be adding a 15th woman this month. Three of our guest are waiting to move into rented housing, which Village House hopes to obtain within the next couple of months. We are always in need of Volunteers! Without our volunteers, this program would not be so successful. St. John Vianney needs our help staffing this month s program. Please visit our site, sign up for a shift or two and see who has moved on and who has joined the program. Meet the new ladies and say hello to our friends still with us and who are looking forward to moving on having had the benefit of this program to help them along.
