The Couple Checkup is designed to help you and your
partner build a more satisfying and intimate relationship. Just answering
the questions will stimulate thoughts and attitudes about your relationship.
It is designed to activate dialogue, discovery, and increase the overall
quality of your relationship.
It will help you discover your strengths as a couple. Strengths are what enable you to
enjoy, and to continue developing a healthy relationship. It will also help
you identify issues that are threatening the vitality of your relationship
and may need to be addressed.

You enter this Church...not as a stranger, but as a guest of God. He is your heavenly Father.
Come, then, with joy in your heart and thanks on your lips into His presence, offering Him your love and service.
Be grateful to the strong and loyal ones who, in the name of Jesus Christ, built this place of worship, and to all who have beautified it and hallowed
it with their prayers and praise.
Ask His blessing on those who love His house of faith as the inspiration of their labor, rejoicing in the power of the Holy Spirit, and may that
blessing rest on you, both on your going out and your coming in.
| 8:00 am Mass at St. Peter's is aired on Radio Station KANE (am 1240) every Sunday |

"Forming Good Stewards" |
Eighteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
August 1, 2010 |
"Take care to guart against all greed" (Luke 12:13-21)
Greed is a very insidious and seductive emotion. It is at the root of all sin.
It was a factor in the sin of the first man and woman in the Garden. They were
not content to be grateful for all God had given them. They wanted to be
God.
George Carlin had a comedy routine about stuff. He said that we get
stuff and then we need to get a house to put our stuff. Then we
get more stuff, so we need a bigger house for our stuff. We go
on vacation and take some of our stuff. But we buy stuff we
don't need and come home with more stuff. Our lives are filled with
stuff.
And we get very attached to our stuff. Our attachment to our stuff
stems from our erroneous belief that when we acknowledge God as the source of
all that we are and all that we have and all that we ever will be, we can enjoy
the stuff we have and share it with others without being obsessed about
getting and keeping more stuff than we really need to enjoy life. |

 Prayer
for the Hurricane Season
O God, Master of this passing world, hear the humble
voices of your children. The Sea of Galilee obeyed your order and returned to
its former quietude; You are still the Master of land and sea. We live in the
shadow of a danger over which we have no control: The Gulf, like a provoked and
angry giant, can awake from its seeming lethargy, overstep its conventional
boundaries, invade our land and spread chaos and disaster.
During this hurricane season we turn to You, O loving Father. Spare us from past
tragedies whose memories are still so vivid and whose wounds seem to refuse to
heal with the passing of time. O Virgin, Star of the Sea, Our Beloved Mother, we
ask you to plead with your Son on our behalf, so that spared from the calamities
common to this area and animated with a true spirit of gratitude, we will walk
in the footsteps of your Divine Son to reach the heavenly Jerusalem where a
stormless eternity awaits us. Amen
