“We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared

for is the greatest poverty. We must start in our own homes to remedy this kind of poverty.” ~ St. Mother Theresa of Calcutta

“Good humor is a tonic for mind and body. It is the best anti-

dote for anxiety and depression. It is a business asset. It at-

tracts and keeps friends. It lightens human burdens. It is the

direct rout to serenity and contentment.” ~ Grenville Kleiser

“Kindness and Truth shall meet; justice and peace

shall kiss.” (Ps 85) Today I pray blessings for all

of our Church; our Church worldwide and our Church local.

My time in the Philippines gives me pause to pray blessings

for everyone. This weekend our readings are filled with the

message of blessing. It does not matter where poverty re-

sides whether in Great Falls or in Malaysia. It matters that

as Christians we address it through our prayer and our ac-

tions; through our thoughts and our words. It matters that

we care! Please consider working in the Family Promise

Monsignor House. We will host again in August. We would

love to work alongside you at the Monsignor House. If you

have been thinking about this please call Kathie & leave a

message @ 781.5033.

Eagle Scout Project

Thanks to Caimin Boland and his Boy Scout Eagle Project

we have three new planters in the Holy Spirit Parish Com-

munity Garden. The project consisted of about 25 hours of

planning and about 65 hours of working. Caimin raised

more than $475 for the cost of the project and was able to

assemble the required materials donated by the City of Great

Falls, United Materials and Boland Well Systems. His pro-

ject will double the size of the garden significantly increas-

ing the amount of vegetable production. Caimin would like

to thank Jacob and Caleb Mee, Troy Child, Boland Well

Systems, and Parishioners of Holy Spirit for their help with

the project.

Liturgical Bits and Bytes: Confiteor Near the beginning

of Mass, the community acknowledges its sinfulness and

dependence on God’s mercy. One option is for all to recite

the Confiteor, the prayer that begins, “I confess to almighty

God.” As people admit their sin, they strike their breast.

The Confiteor is an old prayer, but its current place-

ment in the Mass is an innovation. Prior to the Second Vati-

can Council, the priest recited the Confiteor by himself, one

of several prayers at the foot of the altar that introduced the

Mass, and the servers repeated it after him. The people

prayed the Confiteor later, just before receiving communion.

This was because for many years, people did not receive

communion at Mass frequently. When they received com-

munion outside of Mass—for example, when they were

sick—they said the Confiteor first. As communion at Mass

became more common, the Confiteor came with it. So essen-

tially, a communion service had been inserted into the

priest’s Mass, as if the people’s communion had nothing to

do with the priest’s communion or the sacrifice preceding it.

The priest even distributed communion from the tabernacle

rather than the newly consecrated bread and wine on the al-

tar.

In the revisions of the Mass following the Council,

the Confiteor became one of three options for the penitential

act near the beginning of Mass. The Confiteor was removed

from the communion rite, where it interrupted the natural

flow of events. It remained at the beginning, but as one op-

tion rather than an obligatory prayer. It was offered to the entire

assembly to recite rather than to the priest alone. This enabled

everyone to participate in the Mass from the very start as the

priestly people. One way people participate consciously is to ac-

knowledge to one another and to God that they have sinned, to

say aloud, “I confess.” Paul Turner Copyright © 2012 Resource Publications, Inc. 160 E. Virginia St. #170, San Jose, CA 95112, (408) 286-8505.
