FROM THE GREEN COMMITTEE There is a nobility in the duty to care for creation through little daily actions, and it is wonderful how education can bring about real changes in lifestyle (Laudato si 211). This week's tip: Use the microwave, small electric pans, toaster ovens or convection ovens for meals rather than your stove or oven. You ll use about one-third to one-half as much energy. Use appliances that are certified safe by the UL (formerly Underwriters Laboratories) or another OSHA approved safety testing organization and appliances that have a high Energy Star efficiency rating.

4 AUGUST 6, 2017 BURYING CREMATED REMAINS AT CATHOLIC CEMETERIES Catholic Cemeteries of the Archdiocese of Washington seeks to assist families who are still holding the cremated remains of loved ones and are ready to inter them in sacred ground. The cemeteries of the archdiocese have prepared for the interment of cremated remains in ground burial sections, columbariums, or mausoleum niches, with respectful options for memorialization. Working with the pastor, charity burials also are available to families who desire interment, but cannot financially afford the full cost of burying their loved one. For more information, contact the manager at Gate of Heaven Cemetery (13801 Georgia Ave., Silver Spring, MD, ); or All Souls Cemetery (11401 Brink Rd., Germantown, MD, NEW MISCARRIAGE SECTIONS AT CATHOLIC CEMETERIES According to the American Academy of Family Physicians, nearly one in four women experience an early pregnancy loss in her lifetime. Yet, women who lose their baby in the first trimester often do not know their right to claim and respectfully bury what the medical community calls the product of conception after a miscarriage. No matter how early the loss, many Catholic couples long to name, inter, and remember their baby as an eternal member of the family. Catholic Cemeteries now offers burial options to answer that great desire of their hearts. For more information on the new Miscarried Baby Sections at Catholic Cemeteries, contact your parish priest or the manager at Gate of Heaven Cemetery (13801 Georgia Ave., Silver Spring, MD; ); Resurrection Cemetery (8000 Woodyard Rd., Clinton, MD; ); All Souls Cemetery (11401 Brink Rd., Germantown, MD; ), or St. Mary s Queen of Peace Cemetery (38888 Dr. Johnson Rd., Mechanicsville, MD; ). CATHOLIC ADVOCACY NETWORK REGISTRATION The Maryland Catholic Advocacy Network provides a simple and quick way for you to communicate with your elected officials, and features: alerts on legislation; quick, easy-to-use, pre-drafted messages to send to your elected officials (as-is or modified to suit your style); updated information on the issues; and news stories from around the country. Subscribe to the network at FEAST OF THE TRANSFIGURATION OF THE LORD STEWARDSHIP In the Gospel today, Peter yearns to do something to make concrete the Transfiguration he had witnessed. But to be a good steward of this spiritual gift, he was instructed to be still, to listen to Jesus, and to wait for His direction. Good advice for us, too!

Recommend a good book, magazine or article, exposing them to Christian values and principles. Give them a copy! Follow up with a friendly discussion on Gospel values and how these relate to the busyness of modern-day life and to the challenge of balancing family life with work and attending to both our material and our spiritual needs. Summer is a great time to help others reflect on the need for renewal and true "re-creation," both of which can be acquired as we develop our relationship with the God who helps us prioritize and live a balanced life.

POPE FRANCIS From the event of the Transfiguration I would like to take two significant elements [...]: ascent and descent. We all need to go apart, to ascend the mountain in a space of silence, to find ourselves and better perceive the voice of the Lord. This we do in prayer. But we cannot stay there! Encounter with God in prayer inspires us anew to descend the mountain and return to the plain where we meet many brothers weighed down by fatigue, sickness, injustice, ignorance, poverty both material and spiritual.
