July 30, 2017 Seventeenth Sunday in Ordinary Time ~Jesus Invites St. Joan of Arc Welcomes~ Dog s bury their treasured bones so that they can enjoy them later.

Who knows how many buried treasures lie undiscovered under the beaches of the Caribbean. There is the legend of Superstition Mountains near Apache Junction, Arizona in the U.S. Legend has it that there s a hidden gold mine up there.

2 July 30, 2017 Seventeenth Sunday in Ordinary Time ~Jesus Invites St. Joan of Arc Welcomes~ Dog s bury their treasured bones so that they can enjoy them later. Humans do the same thing, only their treasure is money. There must be plenty of coffee cans full of cash still buried in the backyards of rich old guys who didn t trust the banks. Who knows how many buried treasures lie undiscovered under the beaches of the Caribbean. There is the legend of Superstition Mountains near Apache Junction, Arizona in the U.S. Legend has it that there s a hidden gold mine up there. The Superstition Mountains are a tourist attraction and each year thousands try to find the mine. Today s Gospel parable is a very clever buried treasure story. The discoverer buried the treasure in the field and then sold everything he had to buy that field. Jesus, of course, is using this story to remind us of the treasure of his kingdom and how we need to sell everything we have in order to possess it.
