St. Simon the Apostle Nativity of St. John the Baptist June 24, 2018

The Nativity of Saint John

the Baptist God loves infinite variety. God creates every human person as an unrepeatable being, each with a distinct purpose in life. Today, on the feast of John the Baptist, we praise God for creating this one-of-a-kind powerhouse prophet and preacher. Maybe some of us share personality traits with John the Baptist. Or maybe we couldn't be more unlike him. God will use whatever gifts we have, bold or discreet. God wants salvation to "reach to the ends of the earth," as today's reading from Isaiah

says, so we can all find a way to serve the Lord. Nothing less than the salvation of the world is at stake; we have received the "word of salvation," Saint Paul says in the Acts of the Apostles. Today's feast is a perfect time to ask the Lord what gifts we have, and how we can use them to share the love of Jesus.

RIPE AND READY Teachers and coaches know how to modify their tactics to reach various learners. God does the same with us, perfectly assessing the precise intervention we need in particular situations. God sent Jesus into the world at the ripest moment in human history. Although plenty of prophets, for centuries, had foretold the coming of the Messiah, the profound honor of meeting Christ himself fell to John the Baptist. The Gospel of Matthew tells us what this blessed prophet was like: "John wore clothing made of camel's hair and had a leather belt around his waist. His food was locusts and wild honey." Out of an infinite variety of people throughout all of human history, God chose John the Baptist, in his wildness, to make us ready to meet the Son of God.

LEAST LIKELY TO SUCCEED

Few, if any, of us would be likely to choose John the Baptist as the one to prepare the world to meet its savior. Most of us would feel awkward around John, given his food and clothing choices, and his constant reminders to repent of our sins. John's own father, Zechariah, doubted God's providence when he learned his wife Elizabeth would give birth to John. As a punishment, the angel Gabriel removed Zechariah's ability to speak. Luke's Gospel reading today recounts the moment when Zechariah acknowledges God's plan for his son. He supports Elizabeth--who had trusted in God's providence all along--and regains his voice. Zechariah rejoices in God's wisdom, praising God to all their neighbors. John's story reminds us how our instincts often run counter to God's wisdom. Though we avoid awkward and difficult people, God chooses a locust-eating man to show us the way to Jesus. The lesson of John the Baptist is never to underestimate the power and wisdom of God. This inspires hope! We, like John, are "fearfully, wonderfully made" (Psalm 139). God has beautiful plans for each of us. Copyright (c) J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

Parish Stewardship of Treasure :

June 24, 2018 - The Nativity of St. John the Baptist “…Behold, one is coming after me; I am not worthy to unfasten the sandals of his feet.” – ACTS 13:25 Stewardship is a lifestyle, it’s not a program or a process. It’s how we are called to live our lives twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week! It challenges us to live “God-centered” lives, not “self-centered” lives. Reflect on your daily activities, do you do them for the glory of God or for

June 24-Feast of John the Baptist In the Gospel today, we celebrate the birth of John the Baptist and everyone pondered the question: “What, then, will this child be? For surely the hand of the Lord was with him.” This month, “the hand of the Lord has been acting through you” as your gifts to the Society of St. Vincent de Paul brought his love and care to the poor by assisting families in St. Simon parish, providing in food, utility, rent and other bills.

Thank You!

St. Vincent De Paul Society News :

June 24th - Solemnity of the Nativity of Saint John the Baptist -Dynamic Catholic, Alive – Chosen and Called How beautiful the readings are today for this solemnity! They remind us that God knows us and loves us so deeply. He knows us better than we know ourselves. Even before we were born, He saw what our lives would be like. Just like the prophet Isaiah and John the Baptist, we are called to be servants of God who dedicate our lives to Him. Our Triune God must be the center of everything that we do, not just another item among the many on a checklist. Today, invite God to come into every dimension of your life, especially your family life. With this approach of consecration to God, making Him the focal point of our relationships, our work, and our leisure, we can bring others into a similar relationship with God and help them recognize their true identity as sons and daughters called to serve. Let us be like St. John the Baptist, who constantly sought to point others to Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God, during his short life.

Living with Intention: Strategic Tools for

Middleagers and Beyond Sundays, 1:30-3:30pm at Mercy Center, 2039 N.

Geyer Rd. 63131 This holistic 5 part Sunday Series will guide you on ways to live with intention, reduce unnecessary stress, maintain a healthy brain, provide optimal care for our aging loved ones, and care for ourselves while caring for a loved one. All are welcome to attend any or all of the sessions. Creating the BEST Rest of Your Life* - Sunday, June 24 The days just seem to fly by. It’s not uncommon to find we have lost sight of our goals and intentions in the challenge of ‘just getting through’ day by day. Through the use of interactive coaching tools and strategies, you will assess your current satisfaction in multiple life zones and chart a course to help you reach your goals and intentions. Five Fast Fixes to Reduce your Stress* - Sunday, July 15 Stress is very important in keeping us engaged, focused and motivated. However, too little or too much is problematic. You will learn 5 validated and reliable strategies to help you manage your stress. Healthy Aging and the Brain* - Sunday, August 12 Many people think that as they age, they automatically lose their mental edge. It doesn’t have to be that way. Learn techniques to improve your memory and stay sharp at any age. Also find out if you are doing the right things to keep your brain healthy. How to Talk about the Hard Stuff with your Aging Parents* - Sunday, September 23 With advances in modern medicine, Americans are living longer, often with more chronic conditions than in previous generations. This has created a new life stage for many adult children as they step in and help steer the course for their parents’ ultimate health and well-being. You will learn strategies that will help make the difficult conversations around health challenges more comfortable and productive. Taking Care of the Caregiver* - Sunday, October 14 This session will address the challenges care givers face and how they can affect the caregiver’s quality of life. To be the best caregiver, we know we have to take care of ourselves. This session focuses on self-care, renewal and reengagement.

Cost per session: $20. Please register for the class/classes you will attend. Online registrations available until noon the Friday before a class with credit card payment (no refunds).
