Worship Aid 1. How Great Is Our God Oct. 20, 2019

The splendor of the King clothed in majesty let all the earth rejoice, all the earth rejoice. He wraps himself in light, and darkness tries to hide, and trembles at His voice, trembles at His voice.

How great is our God! Sing with me: How great is our God! And all will see how great, how great is our God!

And age to age He stands and me is in his hands, Beginning and the End, Beginning and the End. The Godhead, three in one, Father, Spirit, Son, the Lion and the Lamb, Lion and the Lamb.

2. Lord, I Need You

Lord, I come, I confess. Bowing here, I find my rest. And without You, I fall apart. You’re the one that guides my heart.

Lord, I need You, oh, I need You. Ev’ry hour I need You. My one defense, my righteousness; Oh, God, how I need You.

Where sin runs deep, Your grace is more. Where grace is found is where You are. And where You are, Lord, I am free. Holiness is Christ in me. Where You are, Lord, I am free. Holiness is Christ in me.

(bridge) So, teach my song to rise to You when tempta on comes my way.

And when I cannot stand, I’ll fall on You. Jesus, You’re my hope and stay. And when I cannot stand, I’ll fall on You. Jesus,

You’re my hope and stay.

3. Come Thou Fount

Come, Thou Fount of ev’ry blessing, tune my heart to sing Thy grace; streams of mercy, never ceasing, call for songs of loudest praise. Teach me some melodious sonnet, sung by flaming tongues above;

praise His name, I’m fixed upon it, Name of God’s redeeming love.

Come Thou Fount (Repeat)

Hither to Thy love has blest me; Thou hast brought me to this place; and I know thy hand will bring me, safely home by Thy good grace. Jesus sought me when a stranger, wand’ring from the fold of God;

He, to rescue me from danger, bought me with His precious blood.

Oh to grace how great a debtor, daily I’m constrained to be! Let Thy goodness, like a fe er, bind my wand’ring heart to Thee:

Prone to wander, Lord I feel it, prone to leave the God I love; Here’s my heart, oh take and seal it; seal it for Thy courts above.

Text: Robert Robinson; Tune: trad. American melody (Ne leton) Sung By David Crowder Band. CCLI # 1595099

4. Open My Eyes 392 MI Open my eyes, Lord. Help me to see your face. Open my eyes, Lord. Help me to see.

Open my ears, Lord. Help me to hear your voice. Open my ears, Lord. Help me to hear.

And the first shall be last, and our eyes are opened, And we’ll hear like never before. And we’ll speak in new ways, And we’ll see God’s face in places we’ve never known.

Open my heart, Lord. Help me to love like you. Open my heart, Lord. Help me to love.

I live within you. Deep in your heart, O Love. I live within you. Rest now in me. © 1999, Jesse Manibusan, Oregon Catholic Press onelicense.net License # A-722757

5. Bread of Heaven Bread of heaven, Savior broken, cup of life outpoured; we your people thirst and hunger.

Come renew us, Lord; come renew us, Lord.

1.From the mountain, blessing spoken where we came to pray; with the simple truth before us: love them in my name; love them in my name.

2. From the garden dark with sorrow, from the tears you wept, bloomed the flower of salva on: new life born of death, new life born of death.

(bridge) From the hill where love was li ed on the heavy wood, flow the blood and streams of mercy where

your mother stood, where your mother stood. (interlude, to verse 3)

3. From the tomb that could not hold you in the dark of night, broke the morning of redemp on, raising us to life, raising us to life.

7. This Is Amazing Grace Who breaks the power of sin and darkness, whose love is mighty and so much stronger? The King of glory, the

King above all kings. Who shakes the whole earth with holy thunder and leaves us breathless in awe and wonder?

The King of glory, The King above all kings.

This is amazing grace, this is unfailing love, that You would take my place, that You would bear my cross. You laid down Your life that I would be set free. Oh, Jesus, I sing for all that You’ve done for me.

Who brings our chaos back into order, who makes the orphan a son and daughter? The King glory, the King of glory.

Who rules the na ons with truth and jus ce, shines like the sun in all of its brilliance? The King of glory, the King above all Kings.

Worthy is the Lamb who was slain! Worthy is the King who conquered the grave! Worthy is the Lamb who was slain!

Worthy is the King who conquered the grave! Worthy is the Lamb who was slain! Worthy is the King who conquered the grave!

Pastoral Let ter

World Mission Sunday Ever since the early Christian church understood the great commissioning from Jesus to His disciples of going out and making disciples of all, we have been a missionary church. However, the way that the church has done this work has changed throughout history. Beginning with Paul and Barnabas who traveled throughout the Middle East and continuing with the members of religious communities after the discovery of new lands and continents; the urgency of the church has been to evangelize the world. Today the Catholic Church celebrates and remembers those who have done this ministry, even at the expense of their own lives. Our own State of California was evangelized by Franciscan missionaries. They established a total of 21 missions (some better known than others e.g. San Juan Capistrano or San Diego) between 1769-1833. The American College in Leuven (1857) where several of us priests of the Diocese of Orange were sent to study, was originally a missionary house of formation. After their ordination, those priests mainly from Belgium and France were sent to the Northwest part of the US. Most of them never returned to their native homeland. Not to forget that the majority of the founding pastors in our diocese were from Ireland—or the Holy Land as Father Eamon O’Gorman calls it. The first commissioning from Jesus still gives purpose to our Catholic Church. We at St Joseph hear our mission statement as Mass is about to begin every weekend. This tradition of our community invites us to reflect on our own calling to make disciples in faith and action. This can only be accomplished with persistence: whether it’s during a battle like Moses or feel that we are in prison like Paul. Jesus is constantly teaching us the importance of not giving up, but being persistent to the end. Father Miguel Hernandez

Turn the darkness of death into the dawn of new life.

Be our refuge and strength, To lift us from the darkness of this grief to the lift and peace of your presence, where every year will be wiped away.

Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord,

and let perpetual light shine upon them. Amen.

KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS

CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS AND FAKE HISTORY by Gerald Korson

ONCE THE TARGET OF ANTI-CATHOLIC SENTIMENT, COLUMBUS IS OFTEN SLANDERED BY THOSE WHO MISREPRESENT HIS LEGACY

An 1846 painting depicts Christopher Columbus and members of his crew on a beach in the West Indies after arriving on his flagship Santa Maria Oct. 12, 1492. The work was commissioned by the U.S. Congress and installed in the Capitol Rotunda in 1847. Landing of Columbus, 1846, by John Vanderlyn

Driven in large part by political correctness and partisan academics and activists, it has become fashionable in recent years to criticize Christopher Columbus and the holiday named in his honor. A closer look, however, reveals the famed explorer to be a man of faith and courage, not a monster.

Many of Columbus’ modern critics rely on a warped and politicized reading of history, and it is not the first time the explorer has endured such attacks. When a resurgence of anti-Catholic bigotry erupted in early 20th-century America, Columbus was a favorite target then as well. Despite animus among some groups today, the majority of Americans view the explorer positively and with pride. In a K of C-Marist poll from December 2016, 62 percent of Americans expressed a favorable opinion of the explorer and 55 percent said they were in favor of Columbus Day, the holiday named for him. By contrast, fewer than 3 in 10 view Columbus unfavorably and only 37 percent oppose the holiday named for him.

Nonetheless, there have been political efforts to strip Columbus of honor, and the question of whether to continue to recognize Columbus Day is under review in many places. Some states and municipalities have removed the explorer’s name from the holiday or eliminated the observance entirely.

A RENEWED DEFENSE In a speech to the young people of Genoa in May, Pope Francis talked about how a disciple of Christ needs the “virtue of a navigator,” and he pointed to the example of Columbus who faced “a great challenge” and showed “courage,” a trait he indicated was essential to becoming a “good missionary.”

As it did a century ago, the Order is defending Columbus today. When Colorado lawmakers weighed a bill to repeal Columbus Day as a state holiday earlier this year, the Knights of Columbus helped lead the opposition. The Knights of Columbus has defended its patron from unfair attacks, urging that he continue to receive official recognition as a man of faith and bravery. Columbus represents the kind of heroic courage and religious faith that inspired the establishment of the United States. Although he surely holds special meaning for Catholics and for Italian Americans, Columbus is a figure all citizens of the New World can celebrate. For this reason, Supreme Knight Carl Anderson said in his annual report this year, “We will continue to defend the truth about Columbus and Columbus Day.” (Knights of Columbus, 1 Columbus Plaza, New Haven, CT 06510)
