"Whetre caring people are cared for""

Sts. Peter and Paul Church

Our walk with Jesus is fuII of contrasts: hurnan and divine, grace and nature, sin

and

mercy.

The Raphael

Transfiguration by Sanzio, iike the Scripture that inspires it, is also full of contrasts. The composition is in two registers. Up above we have the heavenly glory of Christ enveloped in a fantastic aura of divine light symbolizing his divi.ne Sonship. The power of the experience leaves the disciples prostrate while the two Old Testament figures of Moses and Elijah float in suspended adoration. Down below, we have the other apostles, dealing ineffectively with a possessed boy. There is obvious chaos, with fingers pointing everywhere and faces turning in all directions. There is the serenity of heavenly white against the diabolic and

READINGS

First Beading- Daniel T: 9-7O, 13-14

The images in Daniel portray power and they prefigure similar images in the Transfiguration. In this vision, white clothing is described and a throne of frery flames. Both images are of purity and power. The powerful one can sit on a throne of fire and not be consumed.

Second Reading

- Peter 7:

75-79

God has called the Israelites to be holy and He calls us to be holy. We who are His must strive to be holy consecrated to His service.

earthly darkness.

This contrast is present in our own lives. We feel a call to the beauty of God's life, we want it wholeheartedly, and we resolve to make that beauty a reality. But we also know that when we come down the mountain and into our daily lives, we struggle with confusion, temptation, and earthly concerns. It is easy in Christ's glorious presence, but when we get into traffic, our offices, or the trials of raising toddlers or teenagers, it isn't so simple. Here is where we need the power of God's mercy and love. Peter wanted to stay in Christ's presence and enjoy it, soak it up, remain, and never go down the mountain again. He heard the Father's voice, knew he should listen to the Son, and was resolved to do so! Although he wants to stay, listen, and learn, Christ touches him and tells him to not fear, get up, and get going. We need to go down the mountain and into our lives. That is where the faith and love we learn from Jesus in prayer is needed. He lets us see his glory so we can go down and bring that glory into a needy world. Mark Haydu, LC

Gospel

- Matthew 77: 7-9

For modem readers, the story of the transfiguration of Jesus is one of the most difficult to understand. However the meaning is clear. If we want to share in Jesus' glory, we must be prepared to participate also in his suffering.

MAY GOD BLESS YOU ON YOUR SPECIAL DAY IN AUGUST!

'..that evangelization is everyone's responsibility? Some Catholics still think that "Father X', will take care- of all the needs of the church and they are quite willing to let him do it. Among these needs is to tell others ,iioot tt Good News, which is what evangelization does. The word "evangelization" comes from the Greek and means " the spreading of the news by angels' Catholics, along with other Christian faiths, have relied on evangelizatiLn since the beginning of the church. In a world of many religions, it is ever more important that the Good News become available everywhere. In a recent Sunday Gospel, |esus relates the parable of the sower of seeds. This sowing, is a great me[aphor for the spreading of the beliefs of the church. To sow the seeds of faith is to evangelize and to give othgfs who do not know |esus Christ a chance to become familiar with him. In past centuries when the church eyangelized the peoples of Latin and South America, Asia and Africa fand even our is]ands!), it did so like the farrier who tries to force plants to grow in unfriendly soil with rough strategies of conversion. The churph doesn't believe in this form of evangelizing any longer. Next week I will share what evangelization :means today.

FAITH FSRMATISN

GROWING IN FAITH TOGETHER

As a parent,

encouraging your child(ren's) spiritual growth is a huge part of your daily life. During your child's baptism, your priest reminds you of this immense spiritual task. Let's explore some ideas to help you in your quest for growing your child(ren) in the Catholic faith.

Create a circle of support You're not the only family trying to raise your child(ren) in our Faith. Surround yourself with people on the same journey. Reach out to others during Mom's Club, preschool, Vacation Bible Schoot and parish events. By linking arms, we strengthen each other. Go to Mass We know how important attending Mass is, for the entire family. lt's hard, especially with many little ones, but put it on your calendar and make it a habit to attend Mass every Sunday.

Pray with Your Children A farnily rosary is a beautifulthing, but you've got to staft out small. Pray 'Bless Us O Lord'belore meals and bedtime prayers together. Even small children can learn the Hail Mary or Our Father. Take a look at some Catholic prayer books and explore some new favorites for your family. To be continued next week...

! t Kgs. 3:1! And God said to him, "Because'you have asked this, and have nat asked for yourself tong tite i or rlches or the lite of your enemies, but have asked for yourself understanding ta discern what is right... 'Ano'ai K8kou, Last week, we attended the Diocese young adults meeting! Hopefully, this will be the first step in getting more involved island-wide... but for now, it's coming tlme to help with the chores again... As always, the second Saturday morning of the month, we'll be helping clean the church...

More people have responded to the polls! This week's comment was, "The clergy should also be involved and help catechized young adult members so that the young adult members have a sense of paternal authority in the group and lead them in spiritualgrowth and direction." Actually, the clergy is involved! Fr. Khanh himself asked us to start a young adults group, and often follows up with us and otfers us the guidance and resources of the church. So he's involved, it's actually just a matter of young adults realizing that we're here! Of course, much of our guidance in spiritual growth and direction also comes from the sisters. This is for two reasons. First of all, because they're awesome. Secondly, practically speaking, Father is only one rnan, but holds many responsibilities. Father still makes time for us, so it's not a problem at all [for us, any\ilay], but it would be a problem for people looking to instill an image of paternal authority. ln previous generations, this was something often singularly sought, due to a number of misconceptions. I recommend reading Prof. Miller's article about the better subject: l"rt-tp_:lr'ww-w._8risi-sn:a$a:ine_.S*-m1*0"S$f-w:-q_m-Afi$:S.-tj-tlr_afity.:jn:thg:*.hugch understanding.

OUR PARISH SOCIAL MI$SION Marco Polo Fire Disaster Recovery Efforts Update for by the Red Cross and our own parish response efforts, we know that the impact of this disaster affects the lives of victims far past the immediate emergency responses.

As urgent needs are cared

This type of disaster displaces individuals & families, destroys possessions and causes loss of wages. The unexpected crisis the residents have experienced puts a strain on their finances and livelihood. These can cause overwhelming stress and negative vulnerabilities, as parents, caregivers, children and individuals struggle with day to day life without the comforts of their home, clothing, possessions and peace of mind.

lf you are a member of our Sts. Peter and Paul Ohana and you were impacted by the recent fire disaster with a need for assistance, please contact our Parish Social Mission Helpline at (808) 38s- PRAY {772s1 All information we receive remains confidential.

Please continue to pray

We are sincerely gratefulto all of our donors who have provided our team with the resources needed to reach out and help these families and individuals in their time of need. Your generosity has not only helped bring them material relief but most importantly has sent a message to them of your caring compassionate love letting them know they are not alone. MAHALO FOR YOUR LOVING KINDNESS!

for the victims and all those working to help restore their

lives.

Prayer for those affected by the Marco Polo Fire God of compassion, You created a world for us to know your love and peace, yet amidst the beauty of creation we encounter pain and hurt and forces beyond our control. At times like this our hearts are shaken and ache with sorrow at the destruction of lives, homes and livelihoods. Hear our prayer generous and loving God, for those affected by the Marco Polo fire and for all those working to bring relief and fresh hope. Amen

Z.A)y'dFwm,?oprftnnd& "By [Jesus'J Transfiguration he invites us to gaze at him. And lookins at Jesus purifies our eyes and prepares them for eternal life, for the vision of heaven. Perhaps our eyes are a little sick because we see so many things that are not af Jesus, things that are even against Jesus: worldly things, things that do not benefitthe light of the soul. And in this way, this light is slowly extinguished, and without knowing it, we end up in interiar darkness, in spiritual dairkness, in a darkened faith: darkness, because we are unaccustomed to looking and imagining the things of Jesus." second Sunday of Lent, March 16,2014
