He joined the Augustinians and studied philosophy (in Latin in those days) at Villanova and then theology (mostly in English) at Augustinian College in Washington, D.C. “It was the most exciting time ever to be in formation, because this was during the Second Vatican Council. Things just kept changing and changing and changing!” As an Augustinian, Father Tom has been a high school teacher and a college instructor and administrator. He has served in parish ministry and Province administration, and was delighted to be able to spend a total of 27 years in South Florida and Southwest Florida. Father Tom comes to us from St. Augustine Roman Catholic Church, Philadelphia, PA. Welcome back Father to Southwest Florida! Telephone ...................................

We should all busy ourselves with our own journeys to God, and not worry so much about what others are doing. The pope listed his Top 10 tips for bringing greater joy to one's life: 1. "Live and let live." Everyone should be guided by this principle, he said, which has a similar expression in Rome with the saying, "Move forward and let others do the same." 2. "Be giving of yourself to others." People need to be open and generous toward others, he said, because "if you withdraw into yourself, you run the risk of becoming egocentric. And stagnant water becomes putrid." 3. "Proceed calmly" in life. The pope, who used to teach high school literature, used an image from an Argentine novel by Ricardo Guiraldes, in which the protagonist -- gaucho Don Segundo Sombra -looks back on how he lived his life. "He says that in his youth he was a stream full of rocks that he carried with him; as an adult, a rushing river; and in old age, he was still moving, but slowly, like a pool" of water, the pope said. He said he likes this latter image of a pool of water -- to have "the ability to move with kindness and humility, a calmness in life." 4. "A healthy sense of leisure." The pleasures of art, literature and playing together with children have been lost, he said. "Consumerism has brought us anxiety" and stress, causing people to lose a "healthy culture of leisure." Their time is "swallowed up" so people can't share it with anyone. Even though many parents work long hours, they must set aside time to play with their children; work schedules make it "complicated, but you must do it," he said. Families must also turn off the TV when they sit down to eat because, even though television is useful for keeping up with the news, having it on during mealtime "doesn't let you communicate" with each other, the pope said. 5. Sundays should be holidays. Workers should have Sundays off because "Sunday is for family," he said. 6. Find innovative ways to create dignified jobs for young people. "We need to be creative with young people. If they have no opportunities they will get into drugs" and be more vulnerable to suicide, he said. "It's not enough to give them food," he said. "Dignity is given to you when you can bring food home" from one's own labor. 7. Respect and take care of nature. Environmental degradation "is one of the biggest challenges we have," he said. "I think a question that we're not asking ourselves is: 'Isn't humanity committing suicide with this indiscriminate and tyrannical use of nature?' " 8. Stop being negative. "Needing to talk badly about others indicates low self-esteem. That means, 'I feel so low that instead of picking myself up I have to cut others down,'" the pope said. "Letting go of negative things quickly is healthy." 9. Don't proselytize; respect others' beliefs. "We can inspire others through witness so that one grows together in communicating. But the worst thing of all is religious proselytism, which paralyzes: 'I am talking with you in order to persuade you,' No. Each person dialogues, starting with his and her own identity. The church grows by attraction, not proselytizing," the pope said. 10. Work for peace. "We are living in a time of many wars," he said, and "the call for peace must be shouted. Peace sometimes gives the impression of being quiet, but it is never quiet, peace is always proactive" and dynamic. Faith Formation Needs You! As the new school year begins, we look forward to the start of our Blestways and Faithways program. Parents are registering their children for classes while our faculty prepares to build and strengthen each student’s faith. However, St. Elizabeth Seton still needs an energetic, positive teacher to guide student learning during the Sunday classes. If you feel called to work with our wonderful students and want to bring them to the healing light and love of Jesus, please contact Susan Reagan, Faith Formation Facilitator at 239.455.3900, extension 208. twentieth sunday in ordinary time...

[email protected] FAMILY LIFE COMMITTEE In our Gospel and readings this week there is a strong theme that asks this question... "Who we will serve?" The question for us is whether we will really surrender in love to God and serve Him or whether will we allow something else in our life, something false and empty, to be our God. For the next four weeks we will be singing an exciting new opening hymn called "Servant Song". Let us sing it out strong proclaiming these words... "As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord"! Have you thought about joining the choir?

Help me finish all my homework – on time. Help me listen to my teachers and coaches. Help me play fair and play safely. Help me be honest when I’m tempted to cheat. Help me always tell the truth. Help me be kind to everyone at school and to treat others as I’d want them to treat me. Help me make good friends and help me be a good friend to others. Help me know how I can help others and to ask for help when I need it myself. Help me love and respect, trust and appreciate my parents - and to be honest with them. Help me remember that you’re with me always Lord, and that you’ll never leave my side. Amen Perhaps marriage, family, a friend or a personal calling is making you think about becoming Catholic.
