IMPORTANT Hospital Information: If you are going to the hospital, please speak to the receptionist at the church and let them know when you will be admitted and what hospital you are going to. It would also be very helpful if we knew your room number. Federal Privacy Regulation – HIPPA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act), prohibits all hospitals from informing churches of a patient’s presence unless the patient gives permission for the hospital to do so. IMPORTANTE: Si vas a estar hospitalizado, notifica en la oficina de nuestra iglesia , en qué hospital vas a estar. Ayudaría además, que posteriormente nos indiques el nú-mero de la habitación. La Regulación Federal de la Privacidad – HIPPA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act), prohíbe a los hospitales dar información de pacientes ,a menos que el paciente lo autorize.

Reflection on the Sunday Readings By Fr. Eamon Tobin In the first reading, Moses reminds the Israelites that the law of God is “already in your mouths and in your hearts.” The truth is echoed by the lawyer in the Gospel who readily quotes the law. Jesus, echoing Moses, urges the lawyer to do what he already knows. The compassionate action of the Good Samaritan reveals to us the “image of the invisible God” which Paul speaks about in the second reading. Let us listen to God’s Word to hear what it is he wants to say to us in these readings today En la primera lectura, Moisés les recuerda a los isra-elitas que la ley de Dios “ya está en sus bocas y en sus corazones”. El abogado del Evangelio se hace eco de la verdad y cita fácilmente la ley. Jesús, haciéndose eco de Moisés, insta al abogado a hacer lo que ya sabe. La acción compasiva del buen samar-itano. Nos revela la "imagen del Dios invisible" de la que habla Pablo en la segunda lectura. Escuchemos la Palabra de Dios para escuchar lo que él quiere de-cirnos en estas lecturas de hoy.

We are excited to announce that we will be getting new kitchen cabinets and countertops with additional cabinets for a coffee bar thanks to Premier Cabinets and Trim that have offered us a very generous estimate. Work should begin this week. There will be no access to the kitchen during this remodel. Thank you for your cooperation with this. Nos complace anunciar que obtendremos nuevos ga-binetes de cocina y mostradores con gabinetes adi-cionales para una cafetería, gracias a Premier Cabi-nets y Trim, que nos han ofrecido una estimación muy generosa. No habrá acceso a la cocina durante esta remodelación. Gracias por su cooperación con esto. 321-345-4923

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION There’s a different pace to a summer Sunday, especially on those days when we dream of air conditioning and wave any available paper to stir the air. Yet we persist in gather-ing, even with so many breaks from the usual routines. We distance ourselves not only from routines, but from sched-ules and familiar well-worn paths. These are playful days and contemplative days. We see long-lost friends and visit almost-forgotten places. We have more leisure than any people before in the history of the world, and we need it because our lives are so care-worn and tiring. More of us walk barefoot and look up at the stars or dip our toes in the lake or sea, sing around campfires, read novels on the beach, and eat comfort food with our fingers. We see how beautiful life can be, and are more aware than usual of how God is always breaking in with signs of love. In Genesis today, Abraham and Sarah practice hospitality to their visitors, who turn out to be God dropping in. During the summer months, God practices hospitality in return, inviting us into a season of celebration. Keeping Sunday holy is a good habit to cultivate in these days when our spirits are especially receptive to God’s deep desire for us to know divine love. —James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE América es un continente nacido del mestizaje que tomó a los europeos, los indígenas y los africanos para engendrar algo nuevo. Normalmente pensamos en el mestizaje de sangre que produjo nuevas razas latinoameri-canas. Pero también existe el mestizaje cultural que produce nuevos elementos latinoamericanos. Uno de estos es el sarape, hijo de la tilma pre-colombina y el manto español. Este mestizaje en tela tiene sus principios en el siglo XVIII con una proliferación de talleres en Zacatecas, Saltillo y otros lugares. Esta cobija colorida, de algodón o lana, fue desarrollada para añadir color y belleza a los charros de siglos pasados. A través de la historia el sarape ha sido usado por vaqueros, jinetes, soldados y revolucionarios. Hoy día el sarape, jorongo, frazada, gabán o cobija se ha convertido en símbolo de tradición mexicana y se encuentra decorando hogares, restaurantes e iglesias. México no es el único país que ha desarrollado un mestizaje en tela, también Guatemala, Colombia, El Salvador y otros más tienen sus telas y tapetes particulares que mezclan los colores y los diseños para celebrar el talento y la creatividad del mestizaje latinoamericano. —Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright © J.

Beloved in Christ, our Gospel Passage (Luke 10:38-42) reiterates listening is crucial in our relationship with God. What God wants to say to us or do for us is far more important than what we want to say to God or do for Him. Many

times, we display activism like Martha and want to do many things for God; but we do not pray or listen to God as Mary did. The Gospel Passage calls for a healthy balance which leans more toward listening and prayer than activism. It means, we should never rely solely on our own human strength. As we know, listening is crucial in any authentic relationship. If you are on a date or you’re with your spouse,

you want to know what the person cares about; listening to you is key. That’s how the person can know your likes and dislikes; the person doesn’t presume your likes and dislikes. This is why Jesus declared Mary’s response as greater than Martha’s. Mary gave Jesus full attention, listening to Him. Martha basically presumed what Jesus wanted, and unintentionally gave Him distracted attention. Just as we are tended to believe about activism, Martha thought she was doing better than Mary and demanded Jesus should ask Mary to come and help her. Jesus handled it very well: “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and worried about many things. There is need of only one thing. Mary has chosen the better part and it will not be taken from her.” Let us always first listen to God, hear what He wants, and what He thinks; then we can respond properly. Accordingly, PRAYER is not so much about vocalization or presentation of our petitions for different needs. More importantly, it is about spending time with God just to appreciate God and ponder His beauty and splendor – especially during Holy Hour, Adoration, Visits to the Blessed Sacrament, and through Meditation and Contemplation. BIBLE VERSES OF THE WEEK: “Be still, and know that I am God. I am exalted among the nations, I am exalted in the earth!” (Ps 46:10); “But the LORD is in his holy temple; let all the earth keep silence before him” (Hab 2:20). Vacation Bible School: special thanks to our faith formation coordinators, parish staff and distinguished volunteers for a successful, exciting and very engaging program for our children and young people. We appreciate and thank our parents for bringing our children. Desde el escritorio del pastor: Amados en Cristo, nuestro pasaje del Evangelio (Luc 10:38-42) reitera que escuchar es crucial en nuestra relación con Dios. Lo que Dios quiere decirnos o hacer por nosotros es mucho más importante que lo que queremos decirle a Dios o hacer por Él. Muchas veces, expresamos activismo como Marta y queremos hacer muchas cosas por Dios; pero no oramos ni escuchamos a Dios como lo hizo María. El pasaje del Evangelio exige un equilibrio saludable que se incline más hacia la escucha y la oración que al activismo. Significa que nunca debemos confiar únicamente en nuestra propia fuerza humana. Como sabemos, escuchar es crucial en cualquier relación auténtica. Si tiene una cita con su novia o está con su cónyuge, quiere saber qué le importa a la persona; escucharte es clave. Así, la persona puede saber tus gustos y disgustos; la persona no presume tus gustos y disgustos. Por eso, Jesús declaró que la respuesta de María era mayor que la de Marta. María puso toda su atención a Jesús, escuchándole. Marta básicamente presumió lo que Jesús quería, y sin querer le prestó atención distraída. Al igual que somos tendientes a creer sobre el activismo, Marta pensó que estaba mejor que María y le exigió a Jesús que le pidiera a María que la ayudara. Jesús lo manejó muy bien: “Marta, Marta, muchas cosas te preocupan y te inquietan, siendo así que una sola es necesaria. María escogió la mejor parte y nadie se la quitará.” Primero escuchemos a Dios, escuchemos lo que Él quiere y lo que piensa; entonces podemos responder adecuadamente. En consecuencia, la ORACIÓN no tiene tanto que ver con la vocalización o presentación de nuestras peticiones por diferentes necesidades. Más importante aún, se trata de pasar tiempo con Dios solo para apreciar a Dios y reflexionar sobre su belleza y esplendor, especialmente durante la Hora Santa, la Adoración, las Visitas al Santísimo Sacramento y la Meditación y la Contemplación. VERSOS BÍBLICOS DE LA SEMANA: “Estén quietos, y sepan que Yo soy Dios; Exaltado seré entre las naciones, exaltado seré en la tierra” (Sal 46:10); “Pero el SEÑOR está en Su santo templo: Calle delante de Él toda la tierra” (Hab 2:20). Escuela Bíblica de Vacaciones: Gracias especiales a nuestros coordinadores de formación de fe, personal de la parroquia y distinguidos voluntarios por un programa exitoso, emocionante y muy atractivo para nuestros niños y jóvenes. Apreciamos y agradecemos a nuestros padres por traer a nuestros hijos.

SAINTS AND SPECIAL OBSERVANCES Sunday: Sixteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time Monday: St. Mary Magdalene Tuesday: St. Bridget Wednesday: St. Sharbel Makhlūf Thursday: St. James Friday: Ss. Joachim and Anne Saturday: Blessed Virgin Mary

LOS SANTOS Y OTRAS CELEBRACIONES Domingo: Decimosexto Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario Lunes: Santa María Magdalena Martes: Santa Brígida Miércoles: San Sharbel Makhlūf Jueves: Santiago Viernes: San Joaquín y Santa Ana Sábado: Santa María Virgen

St. Mary Magdalene is one of the greatest saints of the Bible and a legendary example of God's mercy and grace. The precise dates of her birth and death are unknown, but we do know she was pre-sent with Christ during his public ministry, death and resurrection. She is mentioned at least a dozen times in the Gospels. The Gos-pels agree that Mary was originally a great sinner. Jesus cast seven demons out of her when he met her. After this, she told several women she associated with and these women also became follow-ers. Despite the scholarly dispute over her background, what she did in her subsequent life, after meeting Jesus, is much more signif-icant. She was certainly a sinner whom Jesus saved, giving us an example of how no person is beyond the saving grace of God. Mary likely watched the crucifixion from a distance along with the other women who followed Christ during His ministry. Mary was present when Christ rose from the dead, visiting his tomb to anoint his body only to find the stone rolled away and Christ, very much alive, sitting at the place they laid Him. She was the first witness to His resurrection.

Making disciples is not just a nifty idea someone thought up. It is a biblical mandate

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Matt. 28:19

Hacer discípulos no es solo una idea ingeniosa que alguien haya pensado. Es un mandato bíblico. Por lo tanto, vayan y hagan discípulos de todas las naciones, bautizándolos en el nombre del Padre, y del Hijo y del Espíritu Santo. Mate. 28:19

Pope Francis’ Prayer Intention for July: That those who administer justice may work with integrity, and that the injustice which prevails in the world may not have the last word. Intención de oración del Papa Francisco para julio: Que aquellos que administran justicia puedan trabajar con integridad, y que la injusticia que prevalece en el mundo no tenga la última palabra.

He who does justice will live in the presence of the Lord (Psalm 15). ¿Quien será grato a tus ojos, Señor? (Salmo 15)

A MINDSET OF SERVICE There’s a lot of traveling, delivering, and visiting going on in our readings today. In Genesis Abraham cares for the needs of three mysterious travelers. The psalm responds, celebrating the kind of righteousness that Abraham practices. Then, in his letter to the Colos-sians, Saint Paul describes his own ministry as almost like a delivery service: he, God’s steward, brings the word of God to their community. Finally, Luke’s Gospel shares the well-known story of Mary and Martha, and the different ways they welcome Jesus into their home. Amid all this coming and going, we are invited to pay attention to the ways we tend to the needs of others. Each of us can ask, How am I present to God and others in my life? Copyright © J. S.

LECTURAS DE LA SEMANA Lunes: Cant 3:1-4b o 2 Cor 5:14-17; Sal 63 (62):2-6, 8-9; Jn 20:1-2, 11-18 Martes: Ex 14:21 — 15:1; Ex 15:8-10, 12, 17; Mt 12:46-50 Miércoles: Ex 16:1-5, 9-15; Sal 78 (77):18-19, 23-28; Mt 13:1-9 Jueves: 2 Cor 4:7-15; Sal 126 (125):1bc-6; Mt 20:20-28 Viernes: Ex 20:1-17; Sal 19 (18):8-11; Mt 13:18-23 Sábado: Ex 24:3-8; Sal 50 (49):1b-2, 5-6, 14-15; Mt 13:24-30 Domingo: Gn 18:20-32; Sal 138 (137):1-3, 6-8; Col 2:12-14; Lk 11:1-13

UNA MENTALIDAD DE SERVICIO Hay varios viajes, entregas y visitas que pasan en las lecturas de hoy. En el libro del Génesis, Abraham atiende las necesidades de los tres viajeros misteriosos. La res-puesta del salmo, celebra la justicia que Abraham practi-ca. Entonces, en su carta a los colosenses, san Pablo des-cribe su propio ministerio como algo que es para darse como servicio: él, administrador de Dios, trae la palabra de Dios a su comunidad. Finalmente, el Evangelio de Lu-cas, comparte la historia bien conocida de Marta y Ma-ría, y la manera diferente como recibieron en su casa a Jesús. En medio de todo este trajinar, se nos invita a po-ner atención en las formas que atendemos las necesida-des de los demás. Cada uno de nosotros podemos pregun-tar, ¿cómo presento mi vida a Dios y a otros? Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
