Twenty-Third Sunday in Ordinary Times
St. Bernardine of Siena

Twenty-Third Sunday in Ordinary Time
September 8, 2013
Fill us at daybreak with your kindness,
that we may shout for joy and gladness all
our days.
— Psalm 90:14
Dear Parishioners:
Labor Day is a memory, schools have now reopened, and many of us settle back into our normal
routine.
There are certain things that need to be in our normal routine – and I’m not talking about brushing
your teeth, annual checkups, eating a good diet and getting enough sleep. You guessed it – the concerns of
the body are very important but I want to bring up the concerns of the soul. There are routines we need, in
order to nourish and care for our spiritual side, our souls.
Many of us have the time and ability to do extraordinary things. Some come to Mass daily either at
the 6:30 or 8:30 am. Others spend hours volunteering at Guadalupe Center or other charitable and helpful
organizations. Some will say the rosary or read the Scriptures. Most of us however have busy days with
little time left over.
Busy or not, I am very convinced that no matter what our days are like, there is one spiritual
exercise that must occur every single day. It can take many forms and can be as long or as short as we
wish. The time of day does not matter. What matters is that it happens and, I’m sure you will agree with
me, that every day needs a moment with the Lord.
We call it prayer. It can be one moment or a thousand. And that moment, in our daily routine can
transform us. It will ground us and place us squarely in our relationships to our Lord and others. It will
comfort us and guide us. It’s the moment we know we are not alone. So create the good habit if you don’t
have it already and make a moment of prayer an essential part of your normal routine.
God bless you,
Father McNamara
A Prayer for
Priestly Vocations
Lord Jesus, You called chosen men
To be with you, to preach the
Good news of salvation and to
Have authority over the powers
Of darkness. Send your Holy Spirit
Upon the men you have chosen
For the priestly ministry. May they
Answer your call and follow you
With generous hearts. Amen
