Dear Holy Family Parishioners,

This has been a weird year. In February, I started working for

OPV Catholic as the youth minister and DRE for middle

school. Just as I was starting to figure things out, we were

instructed to quarantine. Adapting religious education and

youth ministry to the virtual realm was immensely stressful.

I prefer physical interaction over virtual any day. I am now

working through a backlog of Baptisms, First Communions,

and Confirmations and I am struggling to relearn virtually

many of the things I was starting to pick up back in the

Spring. It’s been a stressful time. And my 11-month old

daughter isn’t sleeping. So add exhaustion to the stress. I

would have had a nervous breakdown by now if it wasn’t for

our Mother Mary. When I get in the car and forget which

church I am supposed to be at, I pray a Hail Mary. When my

daughter is awake for two hours at night, I pray the Rosary.

Mary helps me through my stress and exhaustion.

This weekend we celebrate the Solemnity of the Assumption

of the Blessed Virgin Mary. This feast day is held in

recognition of Mary’s transition, body and soul, into heaven.

The belief of Mary’s Assumption has been held by Catholics

for more than a millennium. The Church Fathers recognized

Mary’s Assumption in chapter twelve of Revelation: “a

woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet,

and on her head a crown of twelve stars.” We hear from this

passage is in the first reading.

In the gospel this weekend, we hear about Mary’s visit to her

cousin, Elizabeth. Luke tells us that, upon hearing Mary’s

greeting, Elizabeth was “filled with the Holy Spirit” and

proclaimed that Mary was the mother of the Lord. The Holy

Spirit enabled Elizabeth to realize the truth and to speak it.

This week, 114 of last year’s eighth grade students will finally

be confirmed. After a three month delay, they too will be

“filled with the Holy Spirit” and receive the strength to live as

disciples of Christ. I am so proud and excited for our students

as they receive God’s grace!

To our confirmation students: I know this has been a difficult

time. You’ve missed out on graduation parties, vacations,

sporting events. You might not be able to visit with friends.

You’re about to transition into high school. It’s all stressful.

But you are not alone. When my baby isn’t sleeping at night,

I beg God to let her sleep, but I also ask for Mary’s

intercession because God never had a sleepless baby. As a

mother, Mary can empathize with me. Mary knows. This is

why you picked confirmation saints; because they’ve

struggled and you can ask for their help. Talk to them, and

don’t forget that your mother Mary is here for you too.

The first week of August, Steph and I sent out CCD

registration over Flocknote. The Fall CCD program will look

very different this year as we switch to a virtual-only program.

We hope that in January 2021 we will be able to return CCD

to the classroom. In the meantime, because it’s important to

build a sense of community in the physical world, each month

all Holy Family Parish students (CCD families and Catholic

School families) will have the opportunity to attend a grade-

based Mass. Each month will feature a different class grade.

For example, we will start with 6th graders in October. These

Masses will be for students and families to worship together

(while following social distancing guidelines). The students

will be invited to serve as lectors, ushers, and altar servers,

or just be present. After the student Masses, we will offer

group activities (such as crafts or skits).

It’s going to be a weird year, but it doesn’t have to be a

terrible year. When you’re stressed and exhausted

remember to turn to Mary and the saints.

In peace,

Meredith

SCRIPTURE READINGS FOR THE 20TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME

READING I IS 56:1, 6-7

Thus says the LORD: Observe what is right, do what is just;

for my salvation is about to come, my justice, about to be

revealed. The foreigners who join themselves to the LORD,

ministering to him, loving the name of the LORD, and

becoming his servants—all who keep the sabbath free from

profanation and hold to my covenant, them I will bring to my

holy mountain and make joyful in my house of prayer; their

burnt offerings and sacrifices will be acceptable on my altar,

for my house shall be calleda house of prayer for all peoples.

�

RESPONSORIAL PSALM PS 67:2-3, 5,6,8

R. O God, let all the nations praise you!

May God have pity on us and bless us; may he let his face shine

upon us. So may your way be known upon earth; among all

nations, your salvation.


May the nations be glad and exult because you rule the peoples

in equity; the nations on the earth you guide.


May the peoples praise you, O God; may all the peoples praise

you! May God bless us, and may all the ends of the earth fear

him!


�

READING 2 ROM 11:13-15, 29-32

�

Brothers and sisters: I am speaking to you Gentiles.

Inasmuch as I am the apostle to the Gentiles,

I glory in my ministry in order to make my race jealous

and thus save some of them. For if their rejection is the

reconciliation of the world, what will their acceptance be but

life from the dead? For the gifts and the call of God are

irrevocable. Just as you once disobeyed Godbut have now

received mercy because of their disobedience, so they have

now disobeyed in order that, by virtue of the mercy shown to

you, they too may now receive mercy. For God delivered all

to disobedience, that he might have mercy upon all.

R. Alleluia, alleluia.

Jesus proclaimed the Gospel of the kingdom and cured every

disease among the people.

R. Alleluia, alleluia.

GOSPEL ROM 11:13-15, 29-32

At that time, Jesus withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon.

And behold, a Canaanite woman of that district came and called

out, “Have pity on me, Lord, Son of David! My daughter is

tormented by a demon.”

But Jesus did not say a word in answer to her. Jesus’ disciples

came and asked him, “Send her away, for she keeps calling out

after us.” He said in reply, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of

the house of Israel.” But the woman came and did Jesus

homage, saying, “Lord, help me.” He said in reply, “It is not right

to take the food of the childrenand throw it to the dogs.” She

said, “Please, Lord, for even the dogs eat the scraps that fall

from the table of their masters.” Then Jesus said to her in reply,

“O woman, great is your faith! Let it be done for you as you

wish.” And the woman’s daughter was healed from that hour.

LAS VIRTUDES TEOLOGALES (tercera parte).

Fe, esperanza y caridad. Fueron infundidas por Dios en nuestra

alma el día del bautismo.

IV. LA VIRTUD TEOLOGAL DE LA ESPERANZA: ¿Cómo de-

be reaccionar un cristiano ante el mal, los problemas, las dificul-

tades de la vida? Hay quienes caen en el desaliento y piensan

que no hay nada que hacer, que todo es inútil. Hay otros que

dicen que nuestra esperanza es ingenuidad e idealismo. Hay

quien nos dice que la esperanza es algo egoísta. ¿Por qué no

es propio de un cristiano el desaliento y la desesperación? ¿En

verdad Dios actúa en nuestras vidas? ¿Cuál debe ser la mayor

aspiración de un cristiano?

1. Definición: Es la virtud teologal por la cual deseamos a Dios

como Bien Supremo y confiamos firmemente alcanzar la felici-

dad eterna y los medios para ello.

2. Fundamento: Vivo confiado en esta esperanza porque creo

en Cristo que es Dios omnipotente y bondadoso y no puede

fallar a sus promesas. Así dice el Eclesiástico: “Sabed que na-

die esperó en el Señor que fuera confundido. ¿Quién que per-

maneciera fiel a sus mandamientos, habrá sido abandonado por

Él, o quién, que le hubiere invocado, habrá sido por Él despre-

ciado? Porque el Señor tiene piedad y misericordia” (2, 11-1)

3. Efectos:

a) Pone en nuestros corazón el deseo del cielo y de la posesión

de Dios, desasiéndonos de los bienes terrenales.

b) Hace eficaces nuestras peticiones.

c) Nos da el ánimo y la constancia en la lucha, asegurándonos

el triunfo.

d) Nos proyecta al apostolado, pues queremos que sean mu-

chos los que lleguen a la posesión de Dios.

4. Obstáculos:

a) Presunción: esperar de Dios el cielo y las gracias necesarias

para llegar a él, sin poner por nuestra parte los medios necesa-

rios.

b) Desaliento y desesperación: harta tentados y a veces venci-

dos en la lucha, se desaniman y piensan que jamás podrán

enmendarse y comienzan a desesperar de su salvación.

5. La Eucaristía, prenda del mundo venidero: La esperanza

de la venida del Reino se realiza ya de manera misteriosa y

verdadera en la comunión eucarística. La comunión es el co-

menzar a gustar esa promesa del cielo y alimentar el deseo de

la posesión eterna. Es una anticipación de la vida eterna aquí

en la tierra. Y es la seguridad y la certeza de nuestra esperan-

Holy Family Parish Angel Fund Established to Assist

Holy Family Catholic School Families—DONATE BELOW

Both former St. John the Baptist and St. Joseph Parishes held Angel Funds, which helped with families

in need to afford tuition at the parish school. At St. John it was called the Father Bartley Angel Fund. At

St. Joseph, there was no name attached. Both Schools have merged this year, and the parishes have

merged also. Therefore, the Angel Funds have merged also and will be used to help support families in

need at the merged Holy Family School. Even though the schools are now part of the PERCES

(Pittsburgh East Regional Catholic Elementary Schools), this fund will remain a parish fund. Any

bequests or remembrances for the Angel Funds to help support a Catholic Education at Holy Family

School can be sent to Holy Family Angel Fund at the parish office. Please consider making a donation

today so we can help as many families as possible , especially through these difficult financial times.

Thank You!
