We’re glad you came to join with us in our worship time today. We hope you come again! Page - 974 14th Sunday in Ordinary Time Sunday, July, 3rd, 2016 14th Sunday in Ordinary Time "The harvest is abundant but the laborers are few; so ask the master of the harvest to send out laborers for his harvest." Can we be counted among the laborers? Are we ready and willing to work for the sake of our faith, or are we looking for the easy way out? Our faith is more than a personal experience. It's more than a routine that fits into our weekly schedule. Our faith is meant to be shared with others, even when that requires a bit of work on our part. In today's Gospel, Jesus calls his followers to "Go on your way," to prepare people for the Lord. And we are called to do the same. We are meant to go on our way-out of our homes, and even out of our churches-to share the good news of the Gospel and to serve those in need. It can be tempting to think, "I believe, I go to church, isn't that enough?" But Jesus tells us that there is an abundant harvest out there-countless people who may just need to know that Jesus loves them or that someone is willing to help. If we don't step up to the task then those people will miss out on that word of encouragement, that personal invitation to Mass, that act of kindness that might have made all the difference in their life. God may be calling some of us to an even deeper commitment-to be a lay minister in a parish or to discern a religious vocation, for example-but there is no doubt that God is calling all of us to labor for his kingdom in some way. This mission isn't for someone else. It's for us to carry out the work of the disciples because we are today's disciples. When we accept this mission, we will not only enjoy seeing the benefits that others receive, we will also rejoice with those whose "names are written in heaven." Parish Pastoral Council This Susan Simard has spent the past three years actively involved in the parish life and has been an important voice on the Parish Pastoral Council. For the last year and a half Susan has served as the chairperson, leading the monthly meetings and guiding the discussion. She has been instrumental in organizing and bringing new and faith filled ideas to the table for the benefit of everyone in the parish. Every parish event, big or small, takes planning, “marketing” and, let’s face it, hard work to make it a success! Susan was always willing to go the extra mile and did so with enthusiasm and a smile. We are sad to announce that Susan has decided to step down from this committee yet, at the same time, we know how blessed we are to have volunteers like her who generously devote time and talent to help our parish community continue to grow and thrive. Susan, may God always bless you abundantly for your devotion to His people and your service to this parish. In Christ, Fr. Marcos Happy Independence Day!

Help us remember that our rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness were signed into our heritage with the willing blood of American patriots. Most of all, help us remember that the rights of all people are more than words on a document, and that all people have rights because you have given us the dignity of human life. Grant freedom to all, and give us the strength to protect the rights of others.

Page 5- 974 Parroquia San Luis de Gonzaga Consejo de la Pastoral Parroquial Bodas Durante los últimos tres años, Susan Simard ha participado en la vida parroquial activamente y ha sido una voz importante dentro del Consejo de la Pastoral Parroquial. Durante este último año y medio ella ha servido como presidenta de este consejo, dirigiendo y guiando las reuniones mensuales. Ella ha sido un miembro clave para organizar y traer nuevas ideas de formación para toda la comunidad parroquial. Cada evento parroquial, sea grande o sea pequeño, requiere de una planificación, de buena “promoción” y de mucho empeño para que este sea un éxito; Susan, con una gran sonrisa y entusiasmo, siempre ha estado dispuesta a hacer un esfuerzo adicional por que estos eventos se realizaran perfectamente. Hoy estamos tristes de anunciar que Susan ha tomado la decisión de dejar su puesto dentro del Consejo de la Pastoral Parroquial, sin embargo reconocemos que somos afortunados de tener voluntarios como ella, quienes dedican generosamente su tiempo y sus talentos para que nuestra comunidad parroquial continúe creciendo y prosperando. Susan, que Dios te bendiga en abundancia por toda tu dedicación y tu gran servicio a esta parroquia. En Cristo, P. Marcos Favor de comunicarse a la oficina parroquial seis meses antes de llevarse acabo el evento. Bautismos Las charlas pre-bautismales se ofrecen cada 3er sábado del mes a la 1pm en Milette Manor. Los padres y padrinos deben asistir. Los bautizos en español son el 2do y 4to domingo del mes a las 12:30pm. La próxima charla se llevará a cabo el 16 de julio. Por favor confirme las fechas deseadas antes de hacer planes. 14º Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario En el Evangelio de hoy Jesús invita a sus discípulos a trabajar en el demandante campo de la evangelización. Esta demanda es entendida muy bien por los inmigrantes que hacen su labor arduamente y la mayoría de las veces con dificultades en sus labores. Diariamente hay mucho trabajo en el campo pero pocos trabajadores comprometidos a hacerlo bien. Jesús lo describe así. "La cosecha es mucha y los trabajadores pocos. Rueguen, por tanto, al dueño de la mies que envíe trabajadores a sus campos". Rogar, pedir, llevar a cabo, con paga o sin paga los misioneros evangelizadores se mueven de un lugar a otro para levantar la cosecha y en cada nuevo campo seguir plantando la semilla del Reino de Dios. ¿Qué riesgos has encontrado al compartir el Evangelio a otros? ¿Cómo has experimentado el gozo del poder transformativo de Dios en tu vida? Dejar a Dios el cuidado moderador de cada uno para ser formados en su misión es un reto de todos los días. La última parte del Evangelio muestra los aspectos beneficiosos de un dificultoso trabajo. Los propios esfuerzos se notan y se ven situaciones nunca vistas de los discípulos. "Señor, hasta los demonios se nos someten en tu nombre". El gozo verdadero les viene del poder de Dios, por haber confiado al llamado de llevar a cabo la misión. Todos los bautizados que responden a la invitación de ir a trabajar en la viña nunca van solos. ¡Señor, envía operarios a tu mies! Así sea. Radio Inmaculada ¡Dios Bendiga a América!
