14th Sunday in Ordinary Time: July 5, 2015
“Our eyes are fixed on the Lord, pleading for his mercy.” -Psalm 123
Pastor Reflection
The prophet Ezekiel, Saint Paul, and the Lord Jesus share
something in common in today’s scripture readings. They
all experience obstacles to their ministry. Ezekiel is summoned to prophesy to the Israelites, who are “[h]ard of face
and obstinate of heart” (Ezekiel 2:4). Saint Paul recounts
how he has been given a “thorn in the flesh” (2 Corinthians
12:7). The Lord Jesus is unable to perform many signs in his
native place. The Gospel tells us that “He was amazed at
their lack of faith” (Mark 6:6). We, too, sometimes encounter
obstacles as we travel along the journey of faith. So often
we experience weakness on this journey. Let the words of
the Lord to Saint Paul encourage us today: “My grace is
sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness”
(2 Corinthians 12:9).
RADIATING STRENGTH
When my youngest sister, Joanne, who had suffered for
many years with multiple sclerosis, lay dying in her hospital
bed, we members of her family gathered around her for her
final days. We watched as any remaining strength left in her
fragile body was slowly released. Joanne, like Saint Paul,
had been given a “thorn in the flesh,” a thorn that gradually
robbed her of the ability to walk, sing, speak, and care for
her young son. Yet each time I visited her over the final
years of her life, I detected an inner strength that amazed
me. Like Saint Paul, in her physical weakness she was still
strong. And that strength radiated from her, even in her
dying days, giving all of us the fortitude to grow even
stronger as a loving family.
STRENGTH FROM THE LOVE OF GOD
Society tries to dictate what strength is. Strength is being “number one.” Strength is making the most money,
having the most powerful position in a company, being the
quarterback, and climbing the social ladder. Today we hear
scripture stories of three people who exhibited a different
kind of strength. Ezekiel, Paul, and the Lord Jesus were not
people who found strength in the material things of life.
And they were not “weaklings” by any stretch of the imagination. They were people who, despite the obstacles, held
fast to their conviction that the love of God would give
them the strength, even in times of weakness, to minister to
those entrusted to their care. What wonderful examples we
have in these three men. As Saint Paul said, “I will rather
boast most gladly of my weaknesses, in order that the power of Christ may dwell with me” (2 Corinthians 12:9). When
we are feeling that life presents us with too many obstacles,
let us remember that even in weakness we can radiate a
strength to others that comes from the grace of a God who
loves us more and more with each passing day.
Welcome Fr. Vlad Echalas!
TCCOV is happy to welcome Fr. Vlad who will supply in the parish
from July 9 through Aug. 10. (Many of you know Fr. Vlad from his
visits during Simbang Gabi.) Fr. Vlad will be with us to celebrate
Mass, hear confessions and help as needed while some of our
TCCOV priests take summer vacations. Thank you Fr. Vlad, we are
happy to have you in Visalia again!
CHANGE TO DAILY MASS SCHEDULE COMING…
Beginning August 1, the daily Mass on Saturday will be celebrated at 8:00 a.m. on the 1st Saturday of the month only.
The daily morning Mass on Fridays will continue to be celebrated
at 7:00 a.m. each week - it will no longer
be celebrated at 9:00 a.m. during the
school year as our GMC students will now
join the larger parish community for the
celebration of Mass on Fridays at 12:15
p.m. as their schedule allows rather than at
another designated time. We look forward
to gathering with our GMC students in
praise and thanksgiving through the sacrifice of the Holy Mass.
CHANGE TO CONFESSION
SCHEDULE COMING...
In order to accommodate the
larger parish community and to
continue to promote that
TCCOV is one parish, beginning
August 1st, confessions will be
heard on Saturdays in St.
Mary’s Church, from 2:30-3:30
p.m. Five priests will usually be
available each Saturday. The
confessionals in St. Mary’s are
better suited to offering the
sacrament and to accommodating multiple confessors.
Construction will begin shortly to remodel the grotto area in
St. Mary’s so that a 4th confessional may be restored and an
area will be determined to accommodate the 5th confessor.
The votive candles will be relocated to the Marian altar along
with the Marian devotionals
that are currently in the grotto.
We believe that this change will
allow more parishioners the
occasion to avail themselves of
the opportunity to receive the
sacrament of confession.
St. Mary’s Tabernacle
You may notice that the tabernacle will absent
from St. Mary’s Church for about the next eight
weeks. This is due to the work of a generous
donor who has offered to have the tabernacle
refinished. We look forward to the beautiful
results upon its return.

Statements of the Most Reverend Armando X. Ochoa
Bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Fresno
The Violent Deaths at Emanuel AME Church
Charleston, South Carolina
Supreme Court Ruling on Marriage
Disappointed in the Supreme Court’s ruling on marriage, Bishop
Armando Ochoa stated, “We do not have to like; we do not have to
embrace it; however, we do have to live with it and respond as people
of faith.”
The Church will continue to recognize the Sacrament of Holy Matrimony as the consecrated union of man and woman and to support
families in every way possible, that they may grow in loving relationship which directly impacts all of society. Redefining marriage in the
law is gravely unjust and affects everyone; especially, the children.
The Church does not see its protection of Matrimony as discrimination against those who have a same sex attraction. As Christians, we
recognize the dignity of all and embrace our responsibility to love
others as Christ has loved us.
Bishop Ochoa calls the faithful to prayer and a deeper commitment
to supporting family life in their parish communities; especially those
families who are struggling.
MARRIAGE & FAMILY LIFE, CONT’D
NEW TRENDS UNDERSCORE NEED TO
STRENGTHEN FAMILY STABILITY
Marriage is in decline in America, but recent
studies have highlighted the latest trends that will
help religious and civic institutions find new paths
to strengthen marriage, the pillar of family life.
Between 1970 and 2009, the annual number of
marriages per 1,000 unmarried adult women in the
United States declined by more than 50 percent,
according to the National Marriage Project at the
University of Virginia. The American divorce rate is
nearly twice that of 1960, with nearly half of marriages now ending in divorce.
The sequence of love, marriage and then having
children is also vanishing. Nationally, 40.7 percent
of births were to unmarried mothers in 2012, according to the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention. In California, 40 percent of babies born
in 2012 -- 202,026 children -- were to unmarried
mothers, according to a Kids Count analysis of
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data.
“Socio-cultural realities” often “end in crushing
families,” the final report of the Synod of Bishops
on “Pastoral Challenges to the Family in the Context of Evangelization,” held in Rome last October,
stated.
But new research will help religious, civic and
public policy organizations develop targeted solu-
As Bishop of Diocese of Fresno, I wish to express on behalf of the
entire Catholic Community, our sincere sorrow to the families of the
victims who lost their lives in the vicious, cowardly attack at Emmanuel
AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina. To the members of the faith
community of Emanuel AME Church we pledge our prayerful support
during this very sad and difficult time.
Violence is not an answer or response to conflict or disagreements
among us. We live in a “blessed” country comprised of rich cultural and
ethnic diversity. It is the richness that makes our country so unique and
so remarkable in the world. But when violence becomes a “normal”
consequence of our diversity, when hatred and suspicion invade our
national discourse and behavior, then we are in danger of losing the
“soul” of who we are and who we are meant to be.
Faith guides us to see with the eyes, heart and the wisdom of God. As
we reflect on the horrible acts of violence around us, let us allow God’s
Holy Spirit guide us toward peace and reconciliation which lead us to a
deeper resolve to bring about true change through the conversion of
our hearts.
tions. A report by the Brookings Institute, The
Marginalization of Marriage in Middle America,
authored by family scholars W. Bradford Wilcox
and Andrew J. Cherlin, examined marriage trends
as they relate to family income, age and education.
Wilcox, who spoke to the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops in June 2014, described a “disconnect”
from marriage in poorer communities and a growing “marriage divide” in this nation, primarily by
economic status and education.
The study found that:
•
The rise of non-marital births, which started
in low-income communities in the 1960s and
1970s, has now reached the working middle
class. More and more young adults with less
education in working-class neighborhoods
are “having children in brittle cohabiting
unions,” and those who do marry are at a
high risk of divorce.
•
In affluent neighborhoods where many college-educated Americans live, “marriage is
alive and well and stable families are the
rule.” Nearly all young Americans with college degrees, although they may cohabit
with their partners, marry before having their
first child. The divorce rate in this group has
declined to levels not seen since the early
1970s.
•
Among moderately-educated Americans –
those who have completed high school but
not college—marriage has declined. This
group constitutes 51 percent of the young
adult population, aged 25-34. Moderately
educated middle-class young adults are
dramatically more likely than highly educated
Americans to have children outside of marriage. They are more than twice as likely to
divorce as college-educated Americans during the first ten years of marriage, and the
divorce divide between these two groups has
been growing since the 1970s.
The study also examined the causes for these
trends, including the decline of reasonably-paying
jobs over the past few decades. Young men with
only a high-school education are especially prone
to earn lower wages and work in temporary or part
-time jobs. Cultural changes are also a powerful
factor. These include: (1) new norms about sexual
activity, births and marriage; (2) decline in religious
participation; and (3) laws, such as “no-fault” divorces laws, that uphold individual rights rather
than the institution of marriage. From the 1970s
to the present, for example, the share of moderately-educated Americans attending church about
once a week or more fell 12 percentage points,
from 40 to 28 percent. For the college educated, it
fell four percentage points, from 38 to 34 percent.
The study offers some recommendations on jobs
and tax policy and a social marketing campaign “to
encourage young adults to follow a success sequence characterized by finishing high school,
getting a job, getting married, and then having
children.”
Strategies on how to address the special challenges to stable married life, as a vocation and the
bedrock of society, will be further examined at the
Oct. 2015 Vatican summit on the family.
News
TCCOV addresses counseling & mental
health issues through parish resources
and the Bethlehem Center
In our amazingly communicative world today,
it is hard to realize that many couples and families experience crisis in their marriage and family life due to an inability to communicate or to
communicate in a positive way.
Any family can experience issues and face
difficulties that seem beyond their control or
that develop through a lack of understanding
that there is a problem. Some develop because
of mental health issues that are not easily or
readily recognized or addiction or other social
issues that may be easily and readily recognized but not easily and readily dealt with.
Many couples and families need the help of a
professional counselor or therapist to assist
them in recognizing the issues they face and
offering constructive ways in dealing with them
with a minimum of disruption in their lives and
the most advantageous direction to begin the
process of healing and restructuring their marriage and family life so that they can become a
cohesive unit.
Our priests receive many requests for marriage and family counseling, through the office,
in the confessional, at Mass or parish functions.
The reality is that the priests are not counselors;
they may listen to you but cannot really advise
people on how to address family or marriage
issues. People need a professional person who
is trained in this area to help them move forward and work through their crisis. For some,
professional counseling may be financially out
of reach due to a variety of circumstances.
Through TCCOV, we would like to develop a
comprehensive list of marriage and family
counselors who would be willing to assist those
in need of professional services and who could
offer services on a sliding scale or pro bono, as
the circumstances dictate. This resource would
allow the parish to respond in a timely manner
so that those in need could address their issues
directly with a professional who is in a much
better position to assist them in working
through a difficult period in their life.
Professional counselors or therapists who
would be willing to take on this role are asked
to give a call to the church office, 734-9522,
and leave your name and phone number. The
clergy would have an initial meeting with those
INTRODUCTION TO CATHOLICISM
First Step in Becoming Catholic
Are you unbaptized, and considering being baptized in the Catholic faith? Have you already been baptized in another church and are
now considering becoming a Catholic? Are you a baptized Catholic
who has never been confirmed?
If your answer to any of these questions is “Yes” and you are at
least 18 years old, Introduction to Catholicism might be just what
you've been looking for. It is the initial phase of the RCIA process, and
is also call Inquiry. It includes 9 sessions covering basic Catholic beliefs
and practices in an informal setting where questions are welcomed.
Our first session will be Wednesday, May 27th, at 7:00 pm in Room 2
at the Parish Center on Garden Street, between Murray and Race.
If you have any questions, please contact Deacon Ken Ramage 734-8303; [email protected], or Jack Martinesen – 303-8706.

who have responded to personally meet everyone and to discuss the best way of disseminating information to those requesting help. In
keeping with diocesan guidelines in offering
this resource, counselors would need to possess a professional license, a business license,
proof of liability insurance and their own place
of business (professional services cannot take
place on parish property).
At this time, the Bethlehem Center is in the
process of developing a ministry to address
those with mental health issues. As this essential need comes to be a reality, we will keep the
parish informed through the bulletin and website. At some point, the parish may be able to
offer general sessions on communication or
other pertinent issues to make families and
marriages stronger and more resilient to overcoming obstacles.
Please pray for all those who suffer from
mental health issues, addiction and other crises
that seem overwhelming and unresolvable.
Through God’s grace and our prayers and assistance, we hope that many will understand that
they can overcome their issues and realize the
blessings that God brings to their lives.

Decimocuarto Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario: 5 de Julio de 2015
“Ten piedad de nosotros, ten piedad.” -Salmo 123
Pastor Reflexión
IRRADIANDO FUERZA
Cuando mi hermana menor, Joanne, que había padecido
esclerosis múltiple muchos años, estaba agonizando en el
hospital, los miembros de la familia nos agrupábamos a su
alrededor para acompañarla en sus últimos días.
Observamos como la poca fuerza que quedaba en su frágil
cuerpo cedía lentamente. Joanne, como San Pablo, había
recibido una “espina clavada en la carne”, una espina que
gradualmente le quitó la habilidad de caminar, cantar, hablar
y cuidar de su pequeño hijo. Sin embargo cada vez que la
visitaba durante los últimos años de su vida, detectaba una
fuerza interior que me sorprendía. Como San Pablo, en su
debilidad física seguía siendo fuerte. Y esa fuerza irradiaba
de ella, aun cuando agonizaba, dándonos a todos la
fortaleza para crecer aun más fuerte como una familia
amorosa.
FUERZA DEL AMOR DE DIOS
La sociedad intenta dictar qué es la fuerza. La fuerza es
ser “el número uno”. La fuerza es ganar todo el dinero
posible, tener la posición más poderosa en una empresa, ser
mariscal de campo y subir en la escala social. Hoy oímos
relatos en la Sagrada Escritura de tres personas que
demostraron tener un tipo de fuerza diferente. Ezequiel,
Pablo y Jesús no fueron personas que encontraron fuerza en
las cosas materiales de la vida. Y no eran “debiluchos” bajo
ningún punto de vista. Eran personas que, a pesar de los
obstáculos, se aferraban firmemente a su convicción de que
el amor de Dios les daría la fuerza, aun en tiempos de
debilidad, para ocuparse de los que estaban encomendados
a su cuidado. Qué maravillosos ejemplos tenemos en estos
tres hombres. Como dijo San Pablo: “Prefiero gloriarme de
mis debilidades, para que se manifieste en mí el poder de
Cristo” (2 Corintios 12:9). Cuando sentimos que la vida nos
pone demasiados obstáculos, recordemos que aun en la
debilidad podemos irradiar a los demás una fuerza que
viene de la gracia de un Dios que nos ama más y más a
medida que pasan los días.

Veredicto del Tribunal Supremo sobre el matrimonio
Declaración de respuesta de Su Excia. Revma. Mons. Armando
X. Ochoa, DD
Obispo de la Diócesis de Fresno
Decepcionado en el veredicto del Tribunal Supremo sobre el
matrimonio, el Obispo Armando Ochoa declaró: "No nos tiene
que gustar; no tenemos que aceptarlo; sin embargo, tenemos
que vivir con ello y responder como personas de fe".
La Iglesia continuará reconociendo el Sacramento del Santo
Matrimonio como la unión consagrada del hombre y de la mujer
y seguirá apoyando a las familias en todas las formas posibles,
para que puedan crecer en una relación amorosa que afecta
directamente a toda la sociedad. La redefinición del matrimonio
en la ley es gravemente injusta y afecta a todos; en especial, a
los niños.
La Iglesia no ve como discriminación al proteger el matrimonio
contra aquellos que tienen una atracción hacia el mismo sexo.
Como cristianos, reconocemos la dignidad de todos y aceptamos nuestra responsabilidad de amar a otros como Cristo nos
ha amado.
El Obispo Ochoa llama a los fieles a la oración y a un compromiso más profundo para apoyar la vida familiar en sus comunidades parroquiales; especialmente aquellas familias que
están batallando.
