One characteristic of those who are poor in spirit is their ability to ask for help; they know when others can provide what they lack. Today’s readings encourage us to practice poverty in spirit by asking God for what we need. What could be more natural than to ask God for good things? God is, after all, the inventor of goodness and the giver of all good things. Asking God for help puts us in conversation with God. These conversations take many forms. The reading from Genesis shows Abraham bantering with God like a skilled negotiator, while Saint Paul’s letter to the Colossians praises God for answering us even when we don’t deserve it. In Saint Luke’s Gospel, Jesus not only gives us words to use in our conversations with God (the Our Father), but also promises that God always listens to our prayers. UNLESS WE BECOME LIKE CHILDREN Elsewhere in Luke’s Gospel Jesus tells us we must become like children to enter the kingdom of God. Today’s Gospel gives us a practical example of how to become childlike: ask questions, and expect answers. We need to ask as many questions as the neediest, most inquisitive children we know. Moreover, like babies, we need to expect to be cared for. Jesus models this for us, going so far as to let us call God our own Father. The Our Father prayer that Jesus teaches us asks God for many things: a divine plan for our world, daily sustenance, forgiveness, help, and protection. Jesus invites us to ask for these things over and over again. He promises that God will always listen and honor our prayers. Of course, sometimes babies and children ask for things that aren’t in their best interest, like a third candy bar or a real sword. Like children, we can expect to feel disappointed from time to time when it seems that God has refused to answer our prayers. In those moments, we can remember, like Abraham, that we are but “dust and ashes.” We can be confident that the “judge of all the world” will act with justice for the good of humanity. Today’s Readings: Gn 18:20–32; Ps 138:1–3, 6–8; Col 2:12–14; Lk 11:1–13 CHANGE IN DATES / TIMES FOR SUNDAY CELEBRATIONS IN THE ABSENCE OF A PRIEST We have made some changes to the times at which the SCAP will be conducted in August and September. Please note that the schedule for the weekend has not changed; the only change is a Sunday Celebration in the Absence of a Priest will be conducted at the specified times on the following Sundays in Augusts and September: August 14 8:00 a.m. - St. Charles 10:00 a.m. - Holy Family 12:00 p.m. - St. Charles August 28 7:00 a.m. - St. Mary’s 10:30 a.m. - St. Mary’s 12:00 p.m. - Holy Family 7:00 p.m. - St. Mary’s September 4 8:30 a.m. - St. Mary’s 10:00 a.m. - Holy Family 12:00 p.m. - St. Charles 7:00 p.m. - St. Mary’s You are urged to assist at a time when Masses are scheduled even though it means arranging your schedule a little differently. We cannot emphasize enough that nothing can take the place of the Celebration of Holy Mass at which the Eucharistic sacrifice is the central element. The need to conduct the SCAP in our parish on these Sundays is out of necessity due to a lack of priests. Keep our priests and deacons in your daily prayers and continue to encourage young men to seek vocations to the priesthood.

News WHO IN THE CHURCH SHOULD PARTICIPATE IN POLITICAL LIFE? Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship - Part 1 Continued from last week. 15. Clergy and lay people have complementary roles in public life. We bishops have the primary responsibility to hand on the Church's moral and social teaching. Together with priests and deacons, assisted by religious and lay leaders of the Church, we are to teach fundamental moral principles that help Catholics form their consciences correctly, to provide guidance on the moral dimensions of public decisions, and to encourage the faithful to carry out their responsibilities in political life. In fulfilling these responsibilities, the Church's leaders avoid endorsing or opposing candidates. As Pope Benedict XVI stated in Deus Caritas Est, The Church wishes to help form consciences in political life and to stimulate greater insight into the authentic requirements of justice as well as greater readiness to act accordingly, even when this might involve conflict with situations of personal interest. . . . The Church cannot and must not take upon herself the political battle to bring about the most just society possible. She cannot and must not replace the State. Yet at the same time she cannot and must not remain on the sidelines in the fight for justice. (no. 28) 16. As the Holy Father also taught in Deus Caritas Est, "The direct duty to work for a just ordering of society is proper to the lay faithful" (no. 29). This duty is more critical than ever in today's political environment, where Catholics may feel politically disenfranchised, sensing that no party and too few candidates fully share the Church's comprehensive commitment to the life and dignity of every human being from conception to natural death. Yet this is not a time for retreat or discouragement; rather, it is a time for renewed engagement. Forming their consciences in accord with Catholic teaching, Catholic lay women and men can become actively involved: running for office; working within political parties; communicating their concerns and positions to elected officials; and joining diocesan social mission or advocacy networks, state Catholic conference initiatives, community organizations, and other efforts to apply authentic moral teaching in the public square. Even those who cannot vote have the right to have their voices heard on issues that affect their lives and the common good. MISSION APPEAL We are pleased to welcome Msgr. Adolfo Valdivia Aguirre next weekend who will speak at all Masses at St. Mary’s on the work of Unbound (previously know as the Christian Foundation for Children & Aging), Msgr. Valdivia has been a pastor, hosted a religious TV show, worked in jail ministry and lead retreats and missions. He is a priest of the Archdiocese of San Antonio currently living in Lagos de Moreno, Mexico. He also spends quality time with his two elderly parents in San Jose, CA. He experienced poverty growing up but was rich in faith thanks to his parents. Prior to his ordination, his archbishop shared profound words with Msgr. that he has taken to heart: “You come from the poor to serve the poor.” Msgr. Valdivia offers this observation regarding his call to work with Unbound: “I grew up in a materially poor family yet it was rich in faith. My mom used to tell us that ‘to be poor was not a sin… to remain in poverty could be sinful; God has given us a brain and hands to use.’ I want to be the voice and the heart of my mom as I preach the message of Jesus on behalf of Unbound. Our people do not want to remain on poverty yet they need our help just like I was helped to come out of poverty.” Unbound is an organization that was founded by Catholics and has served more than 600,000 children, youth and elderly in 20 developing countries since 1981. It’s unique sponsorship program is highly personalized. It matches a child, youth or aging person at a project overseas with a sponsor in the U.S. who cares about and encourages that person. With a monthly contribution, a sponsor helps to provide much-needed nourishing food, medical and dental care, the chance for a child to go to school, livelihood programs for families and much more. All of these efforts are directed at affirming the dignity of every person in their local community. All parishioners are encouraged to consider this worthy project and to learn more about the work of Unbound by visiting their website at www.unbound.org.

Decimoséptimo Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario: 24 de julio de 2016 Te damos gracias de todo corazón -Salmo 138 Reflexión A MENOS QUE SEAMOS COMO NIÑOS En otra parte del Evangelio de Lucas, Jesús nos dice que debemos ser como niños para entrar al reino de Dios. El Evangelio de hoy nos da un ejemplo practico de cómo ser como niños: haciendo preguntas y esperando respuestas. Necesitamos hacer más preguntas como los más necesitados, tan curiosas como los niños que conocemos. Más aún, como bebés, necesitamos esperar que nos atiendan. Jesús modela esto para nosotros, yendo tan lejos que nos permite llamar a Dios nuestro Padre. La oración del Padre Nuestro que Jesús nos enseña tiene para Dios varias peticiones: un plan divino para nuestro mundo, nuestro sustento diario, perdón, ayuda y protección. Jesús nos invita a pedir estas cosas una y otra vez. Él promete que Dios siempre nos escuchará y responderá a nuestras oraciones. Desde luego, algunos bebés y niños piden cosas que no siempre son lo mejor para ellos, como un tercer dulce o una espada de verdad. Como niños, podemos esperar siempre desilusión una que otra vez cuando parece que Dios no ha respondido a nuestras oraciones. En esos momentos, podemos recordar, como Abraham, que todos somos “polvo y cenizas”. Podemos tener confianza que el “juez de este mundo” actuará con justicia por el bien de la humanidad. CAMBIO EN LAS FECHAS / HORAS PARA EL DOMINGO CELEBRACIONES EN LA AUSENCIA DE UN SACERDOTE Hemos hecho algunos cambios en los tiempos en que se llevará a cabo el SCAP en agosto y septiembre.

No podemos enfatizar lo suficiente que nada puede tomar el lugar de la celebración de la santa misa en la que el sacrificio eucarístico es el elemento central. La necesidad de llevar a cabo el SCAP en nuestra parroquia en estos domingos es por necesidad debido a la falta de sacerdotes. Favor de mantener a nuestros sacerdotes y diáconos en sus oraciones diarias y seguir animando a los jóvenes a buscar vocaciones al sacerdocio.

Apelación Para Las Misiones Nos complace dar la bienvenida a Monseñor Adolfo Valdivia Aguirre el próximo fin de semana ya que hablará en todas las misas en Santa María sobre el proyecto “UNBOUND” (conocido anteriormente como la Fundación Cristiana para Niños y Personas Mayores), Mons. Valdivia ha sido pastor, organizó un programa de televisión religioso, ha trabajado en el ministerio de la cárcel y ha dirigido retiros y misiones. Él es un sacerdote de la Arquidiócesis de San Antonio y vive actualmente en Lagos de Moreno, México. También dedica tiempo de calidad a sus dos padres ancianos en San José, CA. Él experimentó la pobreza mientras creció, pero era Rico en la fe gracias a sus padres. Antes de su ordenación, su arzobispo compartió palabras muy profundas con Mons. Que este tomo de corazón: "Usted viene de los pobres para servir a los pobres." Mons. Valdivia ofrece esta observación con respecto a su llamado a trabajar en “UNBOUND”: "Crecí en una familia pobre materialmente, sin embargo, era Rico en la fe. Mi madre nos decía que "ser pobre no era un pecado ... permanecer en la pobreza podría ser pecaminoso; Dios nos ha dado inteligencia y manos para usarlas. "Quiero ser la voz y el corazón de mi madre mientras predico el mensaje de Jesús en favor de “UNBOUND”. Nuestro pueblo no quiere permanecer en la pobreza todavía necesitan de nuestra ayuda al igual que a mi me ayudaron a salir de la pobreza”. “UNBOUND” es una organización que fue fundada por católicos y desde 1981 ha atendido a más de 600.000 niños, jóvenes y ancianos en 20 países en Vías de desarrollo. Su programa de patrocinio único es altamente personalizado. Coincide con un niño, con un joven o persona mayor en un proyecto extranjero con un patrocinador en los EE.UU. que se preocupa y estimula a esa persona. Con una aportación mensual, el patrocinador ayuda a proporcionar los alimentos nutritivos necesarios, atención médica y dental, la posibilidad de que un niño vaya a la escuela, programas de sustento para las familias y mucho más. Todos estos esfuerzos están dirigidos a afirmar la dignidad de cada persona en su comunidad local.
