God Delights in You.

Take to heart these words, my friends;

“God delights in you.”

In today’s Gospel, we hear Jesus say to His dis-

ciples; “Do not be afraid any longer, little flock,

for your Father is pleased to give you the

kingdom.”

One morning walking into the Church, I noticed

a young couple sitting in the front pew with a

little child. The child captured everyone seated

behind him and everyone in their own way

started to look at he child, wave, smile, open

wide their eyes, and get the child to know a

simple truth, that everyone in that little chapel

delighted in the child’s presence.

This, my friends, is how God delights in us –

like little children who have simply captured

His heart, the Lord delights in you. Even when

we sin or lost our way, God still looks tenderly

at us, and delights in our presence. Therefore,

“Do not be afraid any longer, for your Father is

pleased to give you the kingdom.”

God Love you,

Fr. Fleming

Dios se regocija en ti.

Tomen en serio estas palabras, mis amigos;

"Dios se regocija en ti."

En el Evangelio de hoy, escuchamos a Jesús

decir a Sus discípulos; "No tengan miedo por

más tiempo, pequeño rebaño, porque tu Padre

se complace en darte el reino."

Una mañana entrando en la Iglesia, noté a una

joven pareja sentada en el banco delantero con

un niño pequeño. El niño capturó la atención

de todos los que estaban sentados detrás de él y

todos a su manera comenzaron a mirar al niño,

saludar, sonreír, abrir los ojos y hacer que el

niño supiera una simple verdad, que todos en

esa pequeña capilla se deleitaron con la

presencia del niño.

Así, amigos míos, es como Dios se regocija en

nosotros, como niños pequeños que

simplemente han capturado Su corazón, el

Señor se regocija en ustedes. Incluso cuando

pecamos o perdemos nuestro camino, Dios

todavía nos mira con ternura, y se regocija en

nuestra presencia. Por lo tanto, "No tengas

miedo por más tiempo, porque tu Padre se

complace en darte el reino."

Dios te ama,

Padre Fleming

August 15-Holy Day of Obligation Mass Times: St. Mary 8:00am

Join us for Family Prayer Night on the

Feast of the Assumption at SSJJ

On August 15th, at 6:30pm, prior to mass,

the Knights of Columbus will be

sponsoring its first Family Prayer Night.

Family Prayer Night is an excellent

opportunity for families to come together

for prayer, food and fellowship. We will

start before mass with a bilingual rosary,

and offering of roses to Our Lady of the

Assumption. After mass we will assemble outside the front of

the church for a children’s crowning of Our Lady’s statue and

a song. We will then assemble downstairs for some fellowship,

food, and refreshment. An event for family, young or old!

Look for a Family Prayer Night brochure in your church for

more information.
