Parish Treasures
In the coming Sundays we will be recognizing our “parish treasures”, which are the individuals that serve at the different ministries within Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church. Last Sunday, we recognized those who are serving High School Religious Education Ministry. This Sunday we would like to thank and recognize those serving within the Infant Baptism and Adult Faith Formation Ministry. Thank you for your servant heart in being members of OLPH Ministries.
Recently Departed
Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them.
May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
 Jason Faga

CCD Traffic Advisory
CCD classes are back in session. We ask all drivers to drive slow and follow traffic rules. Let us all keep our children safe. In addition, the road by the garage and carport will be coned which means drivers cannot make a left turn by the garage from 8 am to 10:30 am. You either turn right or drive into the school ground and exit through the other gate by Room 8. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

WHERE'S LAZARUS?
How could two people be so close in proximity yet be worlds apart in disposition? Lazarus sat alone in a solitude only someone who had totally given up can relate to and had nothing else to live for, except for the faith that he had in God. Every day Dives would walk past him without even a glance, caught up in his own world where he had everything he ever wanted in excess. So physically close and yet so far. Last week’s Gospel had us reflect on stewardship and how we should use the gifts we receive from God and help those who need the help. Jesus used this week’s Gospel parable to address the Pharisees but also to teach his disciples a lesson in faith. The Pharisees lived in the love of money and all it could buy where the disciples gave everything up and were poor with the poverty of beggars. For the disciples, their faith in Jesus was all they had. This lesson is also for us today and it comes as a truth with a very sharp edge. Jesus also said in John 12:8 “The poor you will always have, but you will not always have me.” We don’t have to look hard for people who need help. If we neglect our responsibilities to anyone, what kind of end will we receive? We reap what we sow. As for the rich man who was tormented in the netherworld, Moses and all the prophets provided him with all the warning he needed, he just didn’t listen. We too have all the warning we need we just need to listen. It’s not hard, choose right and good over self.
Have you ever heard of the children’s book “Where’s Waldo?” it’s a picture book sort of like a puzzle where you need to find “Waldo” (a boy wearing a striped shirt, beanie and glasses) among the many other things in the picture. Sometimes it takes a while to find him. You’re probably wondering why I’m asking you this question, well, in our responsibility to be good stewards we need to seek out the Lazarus’ of our world, to help them and care for them. Trust me they’re easier to find than Waldo. The last time I preached we learned about the merit in the good things we do when we do it humbly, remember? The Hawaiian word for it is Ha’a Ha’a. So as we go about our daily lives don’t forget to be on the lookout for Lazarus, be good stewards and be Ha’a Ha’a.
Peace, Deacon Eric Kim
