Why do Cqtholics hsve finro versions of the Creed?

The Apostles' Creed is the summary of the beliefs of the early Church. The Nicene Creed is the expanded form of the Apostles' Creed, stemming from two Church councils (Nicaea, 325 AD;

Constantinople, 381 AD) intended to combat Arianism, which

proposed that fesus was not God but a kind of super-saint.

Therefore, the Nicene Creed emphasizes Jesus' divinity and his divine Sonshrp (Catechism of the Catholic Church, no.465). The Nicene Creed is common to both the Western and Eastern Churches.

Mninfcrin your spirifuql heolth Just as visiting the doctor for regular checkups is key to

maintaining our physical health, consistent maintenance is important for good spiritual health.

Try these suggestions to craft. a schedule to stay in top spiritual condition:

Daily: Everything we need to know to strengthen our consciences and make good decisions is in the Bible. lt is in Scripture that we discover God's guiding voice. Thke time daily to pray, read Scripture, and ask the Holy Spirit to reveal its message for you.

Weekly: Attend Mass each Sunday and Holy Day,

from

Communion. This is key.

Sacrament of Reconciliation ( Confession), Annually: In our noisy world, it can be hard to hear God's voice. Find a Catholic reueat center near you and get awaywith God. Or, spend a whole day in a favorite park or vacation spot praying and listening. Center your day around God.

In this Gospel reading, Iesus compared God's kingdom to a vineyard in the charge of a generous landlord. In the parable, the landlord hired groups of workers at different times of the day: atthe start of the workday, at midmorning, noon, midafternoon, and finally, at five o'clock in the evening.

Yet he paid all the same wage.

The vineyard is God's kingdom and Cod is the landlord. Some Bible scholars propose that the earlier groups of workers represented the Iewish people, who had followed God's laws for thousands of years, while the

Sept. 4 - St. Rose of Viterbo t1252).

Born to poor parents in Viterbo, Italy, Rose used her gift of preaching to teach the women and girls in her neighborhood about the faith. As a young woman, she spoke out in support of the pope against the Ghibellines, who supported the emperor, Frederick II. She wanted to join the Carmelites, but was refused, She died at the age of seventeen and was buried at that same convent.

Sept. 14 - Exaltation of the Holy Cross (300s). St. Helena (mother of

Gentiles were the latecomers. The workers also stood for those whom God cails at different stages of life: from infanry, adoiescence, adulthood, and old age.

All the laborers received the same reward. It must za--.z have shocked Iesus' Iisteners to hear that the landlord paid those ,E who worked one hour as if they'd worked for eight.

Still, all were rewarded. Clearly, God's ways are not our ways. What is important is not how many hourc we've served God, but that we served him when he called us.

Emperor Constantine), made a pilgrimage to Jerusalem, retracing places in Jesus'life. She discovered three crosses, one of which was thought to be the Cross on which Jesus died. On the site, Constantine built the Basilica of the Holy Sepulcher.

why do we have to attend Mass?

While God is everywhere, he is present in the Eucharist in a special way. When, in the context of the Mass, the priest speaks

the words

of

consecration over 'the bread and

wine on the altar, the1, are mysteriouslv tlansfotrned into the Body, Blood, Soul, and Diviniry of Christ. Alrhough the characteristics of the bread and wine remain, they are substantially drffer.ent (Catechism of the Catholic Church,

#1376).ln that moment, Iesus is as present as he was to his Aposties in the Upper Room.

lhe Eucharrst does lor our souls whar food does for our bodies. You wouldn'r go for weeks rvithout eating and still expect to be strong and healthy. From the Eucharist, we receive ali the graces lve need for the rest of the -,veek, Jesus says, "Come to me, all you who labor and are burdened, and I will gitte you rest"

(Matthew 11:28). Our need for srrength and rest are satisfied by Christ. Tl-re Church commands us to recelve rveekly rvhat is, in fact, essential for our spiritual well-being.

September 11 .2tl11 'J'y1,g111.1:-[:ourth Sundu.v itt Or"dinurt, Tinte (A) Sir 27:30--28:7: Rom 14:7-9: Mr l8:21-3-5

Often u,hen rve think of a .judge, ive think of severity or cold justic.e. Coudroont and criminal-justice dramas-

even some news coverage

of maior crimes and

scandals--love depicting the offender as receiving his ilr her just rewards, rvitli the .iudge or prosecutor srnugly reflecting or sigiring irt reliet.

But in the scriptrual sense. a judge is rnuch more. A goorl judge is an educator" teacher, aild pareut. Ciood jLrdges prornote wise livirg and respect for authurity and the law. Their tools are soruetimes mercy. sometimes penance, but ahvays prornpted by love.

A better image to understand the judge's role is a parent educating his or her child. Sometimes education means letting something slide; sometirnes it means holding the child accauntable. Both can be expressions of love.

Today's readings caution us against selfish passions that prompt us to judge. One rvho has been forgiven much but is tiren harsh with others will be severely punished-*or as Siracli puts it, God "remembers their sins in detail."

Mercy toward others is key to the Gospel message.

Some think they are good Christians because they don't steal and haven't killed anyone. They may even be active in their parish but are highly critical of others.

Remember, as Jesus said: "The fiteasure with which you measure will be measured out to you" (tr{atthew 7:2). And, "So will rny heavenly Father do to you, unless each of you fbrgives his brother from his heart."

FAITH FSRMATION

-

This year, the Church will celebrate Catechetieal Sunday on September 17, 2A17 - The 2017 theme will be "Living as Missionary Disciples." Catechetical Sunciay is a wonderful opportunity to reflect on the role that each person plays, by virtue of Baptism, in handing on the faith and being a witness to the Gospel. Catechetical Sunday is an opportunity for all to rededicate themselves to this mission as a comrnunity of faith. Our Faith Formation ministry at Sts. Peter and Paul will accompany all those who journey as missionary disciples.

Bisfiop Larry Silva will commfssion our cafechisfs at the 9am rnass on $rnday $epfember 17.

The faith formatfon classes wiJI celebrafe mass with the bfshop af ffie 9am mass so ffiere urifl fre no classes tlris Sunday. Classes will re*ums nexf $unday, Sepfem$er ?4. l4le encourage all famiiies tojoin us. ln virtue of their baptism, all the members of the People of God have become missionary disciples (cf. Mt 28:19)....The new evangelization calls for personal involvement on the part of each of the baptized. Every Ch*stian is challenged, here and now, to be actively engaged in evangetization; indeed, anyone who has truly experienced God's saving love does not need much time or lengthy training to go out and proclaim that love. Every Christian is a missionary to the extent that he or she has encountered the love of God in Christ Jesus: we no longer say that we are "disciples" and "missionaries", but rather that we are always "missionary disciples". (Evangellii Gaudium, 119) t*-"---"-""-""-"

YOUNG ADULT MINISTRY Rom. 13:B-9 Owe no one anything, except ta love one another;for he who loves his neighbor has futfilled the taw. The commandments, "You shall not cammit adulteryr, Yau shall not kill, You shallnot steal, You shallnot cove(" and any other commandment, are â&#x201A;Źummed up in fhls senfence, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."

'Ano'ai Kdkou, As always, we are ever vigilant in our studies, prayers, and efforts to help the commun,ity. Originally when we began, I imagined that the problems we must overcome were doubt, despair, and selfishness. After all our efforts for so long, all our accomplishments and failures, I have come to understand that our biggest barriers to change are fear, pride, and apathy. We continue to learn and evolve our plans and efforts accordingly, with positive results beginning...

On Sundays al 4:30pm, all young adults are invited to the gatheri*g and fellowship at the courtyard. Then at 5:00pm, there's a choir practice to prepare for the 6:00pm mass. Hope to see you all there.

On Sunday, September 17 after the 5 PM mass the Bishop will meet with the youth, young adults and those in the 6 PM mass who are the young adults. There will be something light to eat. The Bishop would like to hear from these groups and they in turn can ask him questions about the

i

church or any other things that they want to find out about in the Catholic faith.

In the body of Christ, there is :5 Z a responsibility to help and encourage should be the sharing of each other to follow fesus. Among the baptized, there another higher, not virtues ancl sorne accountability to the church. we call one to help fellow duty through accusation, but through love and service. It is my with mine' I flnd that believers in their discipleship, as it is their duty to help me to help me be a better I appreciate those who care enough about me to want in fellowship, ttol catholic, priest, or person.
