Page 2 READINGS FOR SUNDAY, AUGUST 19, 2018 TWENTIETH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME First Reading: Proverbs 9:1-6 Second Reading: Ephesians 5:15-20 Gospel: John 6:51-58 FOCUS: We grow in wisdom as we grow in our understanding of God. Our human understanding limits us, and so Scripture and the Church provide teachings that help us to know, love and trust in God. In Jesus, we come to know the Father; and through Jesus, as the Bread of Life, we come to have eternal life. LITURGY OF THE WORD: In the first reading, Wisdom has prepared her table for those seeking understanding. In the reading from Ephesians, we are instructed to live not as foolish persons but as wise. In the Gospel, Jesus tells the crowds that he is the bread from heaven, and that whoever eats of him will have eternal life. Readings for next week, August 26, Twenty-First Sunday in Ordinary Time: Joshua 24:1-2a, 15-17, 18b; Ephesians 5:21-32 or 5:2a, 25-32; John 6:60-69 From Liturgical Commission Publishing, Lansing, MI FOSTERING STEWARDSHIP AS A WAY OF LIFE PARISH SACRIFICIAL GIVING In today s second reading, St. Paul reminds us that, blessed by the Lord, the good steward should give thanks to God the Father always and for everything in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Page 3 Flip the Classroom Comes to St. Mary s Religious Education Program As we get ready to begin another year of religious education here at St. Mary s, I am happy to offer to your family a new program called Flip the Classroom that will be available to all of our children in Grades 1 through 6. For the past five years, St. Mary s has been using the Faith and Life Series, published by Ignatius Press, as our religious education textbooks. Now, Ignatius Press is offering an interactive online program for religious education classes like ours. This new program recognizes that children are becoming better at, and more comfortable with, learning through technology rather than through traditional methods. Flipping the Classroom allows children to learn at home, at their own pace, with fun and interesting classes that they access online. This program uses religious videos, interactive games, religious art and music, along with traditional content in order to teach the children all aspects of the Catholic Faith at every grade level. Each lesson will be completed before the child can progress to the next, allowing children to learn at their own pace. Parents and our administrators in the religious education program will be able to track the student s progress through the lessons during the year. Because of this, the students enrolled in the Flip the Classroom program do not come to weekly religious education classes. Instead, eight times a year they come for a one-hour class, or talk, or prayer service at Msgr. Ryan Hall. Each online lesson takes about forty minutes to complete. They may be done on a computer or a tablet, and at any time and in any place. This means families with busy schedules will have more free time, while the student is actually spending more time learning the Catholic Faith, and hopefully also enjoying it much more. Families with children in Grades 1 to 6 may choose to enroll the students in the Flip the Classroom program or you may opt to stay in the traditional weekly religious education classes. Because Grades 7 & 8 are part of a set Sacrament of Confirmation program, children in those grades are not eligible for Flip the Classroom. You must make your decision by September 10, 2018. Also, once your child is enrolled for the year, you will not be able to change programs. The 2018 fee for either the Flip the Classroom program or for the traditional weekly religious education classroom is the same as last year: $100 for one child; $200 for two children; and $275 for three or more children. If you are interested in learning more about this new program before making your decision, we are offering an information session at Msgr. Ryan Hall on Monday, August 20 at 7:00 pm. We hope to see you there.
