Jureta, D. Obranović, D. Hrvojević WEDDING BANNS:Dona Mihovilovic/Matt Liesen (2)                          U SVEMU "PRVAK"           Blagdanom Krista Kralja Crkva završava svoju liturgijsku godinu. Već samim tim upućuje da je Kraljevstvo Božje istom u nastajanju. Ta u Očenašu izražavamo stalnu želju i nastojanje: "Dođi kraljevstvo tvoje"!  U koncilskoj konstituciji Radost i nada, u završnici br. 39 stoji: "Ovdje na zemlji Kraljevstvo je već otajstveno prisutno, a kada dođe Gospodin, dovršit će se", točnije - doseći će svoje puno ostvarenje. Ima i onih koji se pitaju da li je danas suvremeno govoriti o Kristu kao kralju. Kraljevi spadaju u minula društvena uređenja. No sigurno je da nam Biblija upravo kroz kraljevski rječnik otkriva neke vrlo važne i dragocjene sastavine naše vjere. I o Kristu i o nama kršćanima. Stoga u ime vjere ne smijemo zabaciti taj rječnik, a još manje sadržaj. Najbolje ćemo se približiti tom sadržaju ako riječ kralj osvijetlimo sličnim izražajima.  Krist je npr. Alfa i Omega. On je kao Bogočovjek Alfa - Prvi u Božjem naumu u svijetu, čovjeku i čovječanstvu.  On je i Omega.  U njemu je čovjek već dosegao svoje puno obožanstvenje i proslavu: "Sjedi mi zdesna!". (Ps 110,1).  No, on treba da i u nama, i u svemu stvorenju ostvari svoju Puninu. Kraljevstvo Božje koje nastaje zadaća je svih Kristovih učenika. Ono traži stalne, uvijek nove i svjesnije angažmane.   DR. FRANJO TOPIĆ - Dobro došli Danas je gost u našoj župi dr. Franjo Topić, svećenik sarajevske  nadbiskupije  i predsjednik Hrvatskog kulturnog društva  Napredak.

OUR PRAYER Imagine Jesus by your side or in front of you.  Make your way through the crowd to Jesus just as the bleeding woman did.  When you pray like this at home, you can cry to Jesus if you need to, and let him wipe your tears. I have read that tears contain a depressant in our bodies, concentrated 40 times more than normal, so crying is good way to release depressants. In your imagination touch Jesus' cloak, wishing for his healing.  Feel the love of Jesus healing you. Hear Jesus say to you, "Your faith has restored you to health". Or, in your imagination see Jesus take you by the hand as He took Jairus' daughter by the hand and let Jesus help you up..."I tell you to get up".  Jesus said about the girl, "She is not dead, only asleep". Hear Jesus say to you, "Your wound is not permanent, it is only temporary. I am healing you".  Let Jesus comfort you after the hurt you received.  Let the love of Jesus replace all the damage and hurt and woundedness.  Just as the Good Samaritan poured oil and wine on the wounds of the injured man on the road to Jericho, let Jesus pour His love on your wounds and replace your wounds with His love.  Touch Jesus' garments and let your bleeding, your suffering, dry up.  Hear Jesus say to you, "You are not dead, only asleep. Get up."  Tell Jesus about your pain and hurt.  In your imagination see Jesus putting His hand on your head and feel the healing and love of Jesus flow through you from your head down to your feet.  Feel the love of Jesus replacing your wounds with His love, healing you and making you whole again. Finally, thank Jesus for helping and healing you. Memorabilia Needed We need your help. We would like to put together a history of our parish.
