DEAR PARISHIONERS,

F arming is a matter of hard work and patient faith. All the farmer can do is plant the seed and nurture it with water and care. God’s unseen hand in creation transforms the tiny seed into a

great harvest. Today’s Gospel parables of the seed that grows by itself and the mustard seed, then, are calls to patience, hope, and readiness. The mustard seed, that tiny speck containing the chemical energy to create the great tree, is a natural parable for the greatness that God raises up from small beginnings. The faith of the sower is centered in the spirit of trust and gratitude that God makes all things work together for good.

Jesus may have been making a quoted reference to the Zealots, a Jewish sect, that sought the political restoration of Israel. Some Zealots were terrorists, employing murder and insurrection to destabilize the Roman government. The Zealots dreamed of a messiah who would restore the Jewish nation. Jesus, however, calls them to see their identity as God’s people, not in terms of political might, but of interior faith and spiritual openness to the love of God.

THANK YOU to the Thursday morning MESS (Men Exploring Sunday Scripture) who served a very successful dinner last Sunday at the Dubuque Rescue Mission. Also, thank you to the priests who have been assisting at Resurrection these past weeks during Fr. Marr’s absence and during my time out of commission. This is not how I hoped to end my final weeks at Resurrection. I ask for your continued prayers for healing.

As always, I pray God’s blessing upon you and your family this week. Continue to enjoy our summer.

Fr. Joe Hauer, Pastor

A FAMILY PERSPECTIVE

Parenting is a lot like the story of the farmer in the Gospel parable today. All growth is the Lord’s work. We have no control over the process. In fact the farmer doesn’t even understand it, for the seed grows even when he sleeps. As parents we can influence our children but nothing we do can guarantee results.

JUSTICE JOGGER

FOUR IOWA BISHOPS SPEAK RE: IMMIGRANT JUSTICE “We [Iowa Bishops] voiced principled opposition to Senate File 481, the new immigration enforcement law, and remain profoundly disappointed that it was passed by the Legislature and signed by the governor.

• "We should be looking to help immigrants, not to harass them.

• "We again call upon our Legislature and Congress to pursue solutions that help immigrants find a welcome, and, as a consequence, strengthen our communities with their families, enrich our social fabric by their faith and their cultural heritage, and provide a good and stable workforce."
