This is a conference that celebrates the life of the domestic church. Pope Francis greeted the families in a video anticipating his visit to the conference by stating: Families face many challenges in their efforts to embody faithful love, bring up children with sound values, and to be a leaven of goodness, love, and mutual concern in the larger community. His hope was that this conference would serve to encourage families throughout the world to build up the Church by preparing their children, who are the future of the Church, today, in the present, for the future while remaining rooted in the past. This message and hope for the World Meeting of Families dovetails nicely with the Holy Father s audience message from this past Wednesday, which happened to coincide with the beginning of the conference. While in Rome and speaking to an audience of pilgrims from all over the world, Pope Francis reflected on the Second Commandment: You shall not invoke the name of the Lord, your God, in vain. He pointed out the importance of parents to teach their children to pray the first act of faith well the sign of the cross. They need to know what it means. We are calling upon the name of our triune Godhead: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. He instructed his listeners: So I give you this homework, this task, to teach children to make the sign of the cross. Making the sign of the cross is a way that we honor God as we begin and end our prayer. Right invocation of God keeps our minds on God that we may remain in Him and He in us. The Holy Father pointed out that we then can call God Father in union with the Son and proclaim His name holy without hypocrisy because it is truth. This is what it means to pray with our hearts. This is what it means to love Christ.

FIRST READING - Deuteronomy 4:1-2,6-8 Moses said to the people: "Now, Israel, hear the statutes and decrees which I am teaching you to observe, that you may live, and may enter in and take possession of the land which the LORD, the God of your fathers, is giving you. In your observance of the commandments of the LORD, your God, which I enjoin upon you, you shall not add to what I command you nor subtract from it. Observe them carefully, for thus will you give evidence of your wisdom and intelligence to the nations, who will hear of all these statutes and say, 'This great nation is truly a wise and intelligent people.' For what great nation is there that has gods so close to it as the LORD, our God, is to us whenever we call upon him? Or what great nation has statutes and decrees that are as just as this whole law which I am setting before you today?" NEXT SUNDAY S READINGS SEPTEMBER 2, 2018 3. SECOND READING - James 1:17-18,21-22,27 Dearest brothers and sisters: All good giving and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no alteration or shadow caused by change. He willed to give us birth by the word of truth that we may be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures. Humbly welcome the word that has been planted in you and is able to save your souls. Be doers of the word and not hearers only, deluding yourselves. Religion that is pure and undefiled before God and the Father is this: to care for orphans and widows in their affliction and to keep oneself unstained by the world. GOSPEL - Mark 7:1-8,14-15,21-23 When the Pharisees with some scribes who had come from Jerusalem gathered around Jesus, they observed that some of his disciples ate their meals with unclean, that is, unwashed, hands. For the Pharisees and, in fact, all Jews, do not eat without carefully washing their hands, keeping the tradition of the elders. And on coming from the marketplace they do not eat without purifying themselves. And there are many other things that they have traditionally observed, the purification of cups and jugs and kettles and beds. So the Pharisees and scribes questioned him, "Why do your disciples not follow the tradition of the elders but instead eat a meal with unclean hands?" He responded, "Well did Isaiah prophesy about you hypocrites, as it is written: This people honors me with their lips,but their hearts are far from me; in vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines human precepts. You disregard God's commandment but cling to human tradition." He summoned the crowd again and said to them, "Hear me, all of you, and understand. Nothing that enters one from outside can defile that person; but the things that come out from within are what defile. "From within people, from their hearts, come evil thoughts, unchastity, theft, murder, adultery, greed, malice, deceit, licentiousness, envy, blasphemy, arrogance, folly. All these evils come from within and they defile." Key Scriptural Passage: This is a great mystery, and I am applying it to Christ and the church. Each of you, however, should love his wife as himself, and a wife should respect her husband. (Ephesians 5:32-33) Questions for Discussion: Adult: In what way has the example of Christian marriage (your own or that of another couple) helped you understand the relationship between Christ and his church? Child: What can you do for your family to show them Jesus love and care? The Emmaus Center will be offering the following groups and classes this fall: Grief Support Group for those who are grieving the loss of a loved one Hope Remains Group for survivors of a loss to suicide Caregivers Support Group for those who are taking care of someone with a long-term illness Parenting Class for anyone who is helping raise a child (classes will be split based on the age of the child.

St. Philip the Apostle Bible Study David the King Please join us for Bishop Robert Barron s newest study and experience how the whole New Testament opens up once we see it through the person of David. This seven week study begins the week of Sept. 10 th, 2018. All classes are held at the St. Philip s Meeting House. Class options are Monday s @10 am, Tuesdays @ 10 am, Tuesdays @ 6:30 pm, and Thursdays @ 9 am. All students will receive their materials for this study in their classroom on the first day of class. For more information contact Essie Leslie at 979/541-6262 or ehleslie@hotmail.com David s kingship recalls that of Adam in the Garden of Eden, and also foreshadows that of Jesus, the son of David. Adam was the first king and steward of the rightly ordered Garden of Eden. He was called to govern the garden according to God s mind and purposes, yet he did not fulfill his kingly responsibility. After Adam, David emerged as the model king who would restore order in the Garden and bring the world under the lordship of God. Like Adam, David fell, and his reign began a succession of compromised kings and rejected prophets until the coming of the King of kings and Lord of lords, Jesus Christ. Acts 13:22 After removing Saul, he made David their king. He testified concerning him: I have found David son of Jesse a man after my own heart; he will do everything I want him to do.
