Jesus, all over the world seasons are changing, but You never change.
You are still the Lord of Lords, the King of Kings, the Word made flesh to dwell among us.
You are eternal God who is both Our Lord and our friend.
You are always aware of us, and our needs.
You are constantly interceding for us to the Father.
You are always sending us the grace needed to get through all of the problems and
frustrations of life.
Thank You Jesus, for all You do for us, and thank You Jesus, for Your unending love.
Lord make us like You and give us the desire to really help others.
Amen and Amen.
Thank you Lord, for loving us totally.

This weeks readings and reflections
Sunday BIG MOUTH
http://presentationministries.com/obob/obob.asp?d=9/4/2011
"If your brother should commit some wrong against you, go and point out his fault,
but keep it between the two of you." -Matthew 18:15
If we have been wronged, it's absolutely essential to keep it to ourselves. Only after
having talked to the other person are we free to bring someone else into the situation
or refer it to the Church (Mt 18:16-17). However, many times we sin by telling someone
about the problem before we should. Our conversation sometimes even deteriorates
into gossip and slander. These sins are major catastrophes even if the other person
doesn't know it. After we have ruined the Lord's process of reconciliation through
sinful conversation and/or gossip, what do we do?
1. Go to Confession as soon as possible. You must admit you have sinned and receive
God's forgiveness.
2. Pray for the strength not to sin again, and ask the Lord to turn your forgiven sins to
the good (Rm 8:28).
3. Apologize to the person with whom you spoke.
4. If the person you talked about is aware of your sin, you must apologize and seek forgiveness.
5. Make reparation. Ask the Lord what He would have you do to repair the damage you've done.
6.Proceed with the three steps of reconciliation of Matthew 18:15ff.

"For if you confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised
Him from the dead, you will be saved." -Romans 10:9
The purpose of life is to develop a deep, personal relationship with Jesus and love Him with all
our hearts (Lk 10:27). But no matter how long we "hang around" Jesus by engaging in

Notable quotations from Pope Benedict XVI and official
teachings of the Roman Catholic Church
WITNESS IN THE NEW MEDIA
REAL WORLD FAITH
Even when it is proclaimed in the virtual space of the web, the Gospel demands to be
incarnated in the real world and linked to the real faces of our brothers and sisters,
those with whom we share our daily lives. Direct human relationship always remain
fundamental for the transmission of the faith!
AN INVITATION TO CHRISTIANS
I ... invite Christians, confidently and with an informed and responsible creativity, to
join the network of relationships which the digital era has made possible. This is not
simply to satisfy the desire to be present, but because this network is an integral
part of human life.
