Today’s Readings
First Reading — Rejoice and be glad for
I will spread prosperity over Jerusalem
like a river, and the wealth of nations
like an overflowing torrent (Isaiah 66:10
-14c).
Psalm — Let all the earth cry out to God
with joy (Psalm 66).
Second Reading — May I never boast
except in the cross of our Lord Jesus
Christ (Galatians 6:14-18).
Gospel — Jesus sends his disciples out
in pairs to bring his peace and proclaim
the kingdom of God (Luke 10:1-12, 1720).
Let us boast of nothing but the cross of
Christ. Through it his grace and power
are made known to his servants. Tremendous deeds shall be performed in
his name: the reign of God is proclaimed, peace is given as gift, and the
forces of sin are overcome.

when it comes.

End of Life: Legal and Policy Issues, Reverence for Life
The California Catholic Conference of Bishops, comprised of Bishops
from the two archdioceses and 10 dioceses of California,
issued the following statement on the legalization
of physician-assisted suicide on June 9, 2016:
Every human being possesses inherent dignity, which deserves our respect.
Each of us should feel loved, worthy and cared for at every moment of our
lives, especially when our earthly journey is nearing its end.
Prayer for The Sick, Elderly and Dying
O God, source of all life and hope, look kindly on our brothers and sisters
facing the end of their lives, fill them with the hope of your mercy and give them
peace and comfort. We pray for our citizens to choose life and fight against
assisted suicide. Lord, move our hearts to work for life and for the protection of
the elderly, the sick, and the disabled. Renew our commitment to building a
community where every human life is welcomed and wanted, valued and
defended, from conception to natural death. We ask this through the
intercession of Saint John Paul II. Amen.
Oración para los enfermos, ancianos y moribundos
Oh Dios, fuente de vida y esperanza, mira con bondad a nuestros hermanos y
hermanas que están enfrentando el fin de su vida, llénalos de esperanza en tu
misericordia y dales paz y consuelo. Te pedimos por nuestros ciudadanos
para que opten por la vida y luchen contra el suicidio asistido. Señor mueve
nuestros corazones para trabajar por la vida y por la protección de los
ancianos, los enfermos y los discapacitados. Renueva nuestro compromiso
con la construcción de una comunidad donde toda vida humana sea
bienvenida y querida, valorada y defendida, desde su concepción hasta su
muerte natural. Todo esto te pedimos por la intercesión de San Juan Pablo II.
Amén.

Pray for the Sick
DID YOU KNOW?
Please remember in your prayers all
the sick of our parish, especially:
The United States has the highest fire death and injury rate in the world. Every
80 seconds, a family—somewhere in the U.S.—is impacted by a residential fire.
A little planning and effort can help minimize your family’s risk. You can start
by installing, testing, and maintaining smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.
For a list of other suggestions please email [email protected] or call
(213) 637-7227 to receive a copy of the VIRTUS® article “A Reminder About
Fire Safety in the Home.”
¿SABÍA USTED?
Seguridad contra incendios: planeación y preparación
Estados Unidos tiene el índice más alto de muertes y heridas por incendio en
el mundo. Cada 80 segundos, una familia en algún lugar del país, es
impactada por un incendio residencial. Un poco de planeación y esfuerzo
puede ayudar a minimizar el riesgo de su familia. Usted puede comenzar por
instalar, probar y mantener detectores de humo y de monóxido de carbono.
Para una lista de otras sugerencias, por favor envíe un correo electrónico a
[email protected] o llame al (213) 637-7508 para recibir una
copia del artículo de VIRTUS®, “A Reminder About Fire Safety in the
Home” (Un recordatorio de seguridad contra incendios en el hogar).
