MASS ANTIPHONS 18th Sunday In Ordinary Time YrC
ENTRANCE ANTIPHON: O God, come to my assistance; O Lord, make haste to help me! You are my res-cuer, my help; O Lord, do not delay.
RESPONSORIAL PSALM: [Ps 89:3-6, 12-14, 17.v.1] RESPONSE: In every age, O Lord, you have been our refuge. GOSPEL ACCLAMATION: Alleluia, alleluia! Happy the poor in spirit; the kingdom of heaven is theirs! Alleluia! COMMUNION ANTIPHON: You have given us, O Lord, bread from heaven, endowed with all delights and sweetness in every taste. Today’s Readings: Ecc 1:2, 2:21-23; Paul/Col 3:1-5, 9-11; Luke 12:13-21. Next week: Wis 18:6-9; Heb 11:1-2, 8-19; Luke 12:32-48.
A Catholic priest is a man who has been called by God to live in persona Christi – in the person of Christ. That means, that when a man is ordained a priest, he receives a permanent mark on his soul – similar to the mark we all receive at baptism – that changes him forever and makes it possible for him to perform certain actions that otherwise only Jesus could perform.
A priest’s primary purpose is to offer the Sacrifice of the Mass, and to feed God’s people with the Body and Blood of Jesus in the Eucharist, which the Church has always understood to be the main way that Christ’s death on the Cross is made available to people. Only a validly ordained priest can give this great gift to the world. What this means is truly amazing. Because of the gift of holy orders – the priesthood – a man’s very soul is changed and he is made like Jesus in a way that someone who is not ordained can never experience. Jesus is God. And, as God, He is able to share His power with those men he calls to the priesthood, allowing them to do for God’s people what Jesus Himself does: feed us with His Body and Blood, forgive our sins, and more. St. John Vianney, the holy priest whom the Church now calls the patron saint of all parish priests, once said, “The priest will not understand the greatness of his office until he is in heaven. If he understood it on earth, he would die, not of fear, but of love.” The point he is making is that what happens when a man is ordained to the priesthood is that he becomes so much like Jesus, it’s hard for our minds and hearts to really understand it. And when a priest performs his ministry, he is doing it in the name and with the divine power of Jesus. Everyone is called to grow closer to God, especially a priest. So, he must spend time in prayer. This is especially important because the Church has always taught that a priest is “a priest forever.” Once someone is ordained, he will always be a priest, even after he dies. Today, the world needs good priests, just like it always has. Do you think God is calling you to live the wonderful life of a priest? If so, be sure you pray and ask Him to help you say “yes!” (Vocations Week 4—11 August)
O God our Father,
in Jesus you call all Christian families and Homes to be
signs of living faith. By the light of the Holy Spirit, lead us to be
thankful for the gift of faith, and by that gift may we grow in our relationship with Jesus, your Son,
and be confident witnesses to Christian hope and joy to all we
meet. In the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Serra International’s objectives are to foster and promote vocations to the Catholic priesthood and religious life, and to encourage its mem-bers to fulfill their own Christian vocations to service. The organization takes its name from Fr Junipero Serra, a Spanish Franciscan mission-ary priest who assisted the native Indians of America and in so doing helped form the new frontier state of California. Fr Junipero Serra was canonized by Pope John Paul II in 1988. Since 1935, Serra International has grown from the informal luncheon of four men in Seattle USA to a global association of over 20,000 indi-viduals in more than thirty-six countries. It has operated for over 25 years in some parts of Australia. The main activities of Serra are in fostering and promoting vocations through:
A personal commitment to prayer
Eucharistic adoration
Offering Masses
