DAILY RECITATION OF THE ROSARY

Recitation of the Rosary at 6:45 AM Monday-

Friday, Prior to the 7:15 AM Mass and at 8:00 AM

Monday –Saturday, Prior to 8:30 AM Daily Mass.

JULY 12, 2020 - 3 - FIFTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME

COFFEE ON THE WALL

I sat with my friend in a well-known coffee shop in a

neighbouring town of Venice (Italy), the city of lights and water.

As we enjoyed our coffee, a man entered and sat at an empty

table beside us.

He called the waiter and placed his order saying, “Two cups of

coffee, one of them there on the wall.”

We heard this order with interest and observed that he was

served with one cup of coffee but he paid for two. As soon as he

left, the waiter pasted a piece of paper on the wall saying ‘A Cup

of Coffee.’

While we were still there, two other men entered and ordered

three cups of coffee, two on the table and one on the wall. They

had the two cups of coffee but paid for three and left.

This time also, the waiter did the same; he pasted a piece of

paper on the wall saying, ‘A Cup of Coffee.’ It was something

unique and perplexing for us.

We finished our coffee, paid the bill and left.

After a few days, we had a chance to go to this coffee shop

again. While we were enjoying our coffee, a man , poorly

dressed , entered. As he seated himself, he looked at the wall

and said, 'One cup of coffee from the wall.'

The waiter served coffee to this man with the customary respect

and dignity. The man had his coffee and left without paying.

We were amazed to watch all this, as the waiter took off a piece

of paper from the wall and threw it in the dust bin.

Now it was no surprise for us – the matter was very clear. The

great respect for the needy, shown by the inhabitants of this

town, made our eyes well up in tears.

Ponder upon the need of what this man wanted. He enters the

coffee shop without having to lower his self-esteem; he has no

need to ask for a free cup of coffee without asking or knowing

about the one who is giving this cup of coffee to him. He only

looked at the wall, placed an order for himself, enjoyed his

coffee and left.

Probably the most beautiful wall you may ever see anywhere?

My deepest thanks to all parishioners of St. Timothy parish

for all you do to increase charity and to take on sacrifice.

A SHORT PANDEMIC REFLECTION

SUBMITTED BY RAY NOBLE

1. How does God want me to use my gifts today and this week?

2. What can I do for people, charities and concerns that have

3.Which risks are prudent and why or why not?

4. Do I want to spend the rest of my life the way I am spending

this day?

We are each called to heroic virtue. Guide my next steps, Lord.

FORMED - A NEW LOOK AND FEEL

Our parish provides each parishioner a format to have a closer

relationship with Jesus. This format is the FORMED website,

www.formed.org.

The website has made some important changes:

1)All Formed content can now be downloaded and played offline

on smartphones and tablets.

2)We have added more apps including Roku and Apple TV.

3)We have made registration much simpler – no more

passwords necessary.

4)We’ve improved search functionality to make it easier to find

the faith forming content you’re looking for.

New content including: Lectio Divina and YDisciple content for

youth ministry.

This website, in a video for preparation for catechists, states two

current alarming states of our Catholic faith.

First, only 30% of Catholics believe in the Real Presence of

Jesus in the Holy Eucharist. Second, only 48% of Catholics

have a personal relationship with Jesus. Parishioners are

strongly encouraged to go to the formed website and view the

video presentation titled: to “PRESENCE – THE MYSTERY OF

THE EUCHARIST”. There are three brilliant 30 minute

presentations explaining the source and summit of our faith.

There is also a study guide that is available at no cost.

Reflection on the content will bring you to a closer relationship

with Jesus.

YOUR DONATIONS ARE IMPORTANT AT THIS TIME

Let’s move forward together - cautiously and prayerfully - with

what God has put before us. We at St. Timothy continue to serve

the people of God through live streaming daily Mass, and St.

Vincent de Paul Society helping those less fortunate.

Please remember to continue your financial support of the work

of the church. If you haven’t set up your offerings to be given

AN ACT OF SPIRITUAL COMMUNION

My Jesus,

I believe that You

are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.

I love You above all things,

and I desire to receive You into my soul.

Since I cannot at this moment

receive You sacramentally,

come at least spiritually into my heart.

I embrace You as if You were already there

and unite myself wholly to You.

Never permit me to be separated from You.

Amen

SACRAMENT OF PENANCE

“In case of physical or moral impossibility in which a person

cannot personally go to confession to a priest, according to the

Catechism of the Catholic Church and the Code of Canon Law, a

person is to make an Act of Contrition with a sincere desire to go

to confession as soon as it is possible” (CCC 1484; CIC 960).

"In this distress, — for then I had never had a single vision, —

these Thy words alone were enough to remove it, and give me

perfect peace: 'Be not afraid, my daughter: it is I; and I will not

abandon thee. Fear not.'"

St. Teresa of Avila

For those who have concerns about attending weekend Mass at

“The obligation to attend Mass on Sunday is lifted until

further notice.” – Bishop John Noonan

If you have reservations about coming to church on the

receive the Blessed Sacrament.

A few items of importance:

to one another.. Please remove mask when receiving

communion.

not allow the use of the sacramental of Holy Water in this

The updated print version can also be found at the above link.

It often happens that I wake up at night and begin to think about

a serious problem and decide I must tell the Pope about it. Then

I wake up completely and remember that I am the Pope.

JULY 12, 2020 - 7 - FIFTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME

VENERABLE ARCHBISHOP FULTON J SHEEN

ON THE ROSARY:

It is objected that there is much repetition in the

rosary inasmuch as the Lord’s Prayer and the Hail

Mary are said so often; therefore it is monotonous.

That reminds me of a woman who came to see me

one evening after instructions. She said, “I would

never become a Catholic. You say the same words in the rosary

over and over again, and anyone who repeats the same words is

never sincere. I would never believe anyone who repeated

words, and neither would God.” I asked her who the man was

with her. She said it was her fiancé. I asked: “Does he love you?”

“Certainly he does.” “But how do you know?” “He told me.” “What

did he say?” “He said, ’I love you’ “ “Did he tell you before?” “Yes,

last night. He tells me every night.” I said: “Don’t believe him. He

is repeating; he is not sincere.”

CATECHISM CORNER: HOW TO EAT AN ELEPHANT

ONE BITE AT A TIME

Article 27 of the Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC):

The desire for God is written in the human

heart, because man is created by God and for

God; and God never ceases to draw man to

himself. Only in God will he find the truth and

happiness he never stops searching for.

REFLECTION:

Picture the prodigal son, slowly plodding toward his Father’s

house, full of hesitation and doubt, not knowing that already His

Father has seen him and is running toward him.

PRAYER:

Father, help us recognize that you offer all the truth and

happiness that we are searching for. Help us to find it in you.

(Source: “Day by Day with the Catechism”, Peter A. Giersch, Catholic Book

Publishing, 2006)

ON SPIRITUAL COMMUNION

The practice of making spiritual communions has been recommended by the

saints from the earliest times.

If only we would develop this wonderful habit so as to derive so many graces

that our lives might be transformed!

It is recommended to terminate each visit to the Blessed

Sacrament by a spiritual communion. According to Saint

Thomas Aquinas, a spiritual communion consists in desiring

ardently to receive Jesus in the holy Sacrament, and in

embracing him with the same love as if you had already received

him. . . . The holy Council of Trent extols the advantages of a

spiritual communion , and exhorts the faithful to practice it.

All devout souls are accustomed to make frequent spiritual

communions . . . . Spiritual communions are most powerful help

to receive the holy Eucharist with the proper dispositions. Hence,

I exhort all who desire to advance in the love of Christ, to make a

spiritual communion at each visit to the Blessed Sacrament, and

at each Mass . . . at the beginning, middle, and end of the visit or

of the Mass. This devotion is more profitable than some imagine

it to be, and is, at the same time, most easy. It may be made as

often as we please , without being observed by anyone, without

fasting. It consists in making an act of love.

-Saint Alphonsus de Liguori. Visits to the Most Holy Sacrament

IN GOD’S PRESENCE, CONSIDER . . .

Pray devoutly the act of spiritual communion below, composed

by Saint Alphonsus.

CLOSING PRAYER

My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the Most Holy

Sacrament. I love you above all things: I desire to receive you

into my soul. Since I cannot now receive you sacramentally,

come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace you, and I unite

myself entirely to you, as if you had already come. Do not permit

me to be ever separated from you.

Jesus, source of all good, my sweet love, wound, inflame this

heart of mine, that it may always burn for you.

Sacrament”, Paul Jerome Keller, OP, Saint Benedict Press, 2018)

OUR LADY OF MOUNT CARMEL

SAINT OF THE DAY FOR JULY 16

The Story of Our Lady of Mount Carmel

Hermits lived on Mount Carmel near the Fountain of Elijah in

northern Israel in the 12th century. They had a chapel dedicated

to Our Lady. By the 13th century they became known as

“Brothers of Our Lady of Mount Carmel.” They soon celebrated a

special Mass and Office in honor of Mary. In 1726, it became a

celebration of the universal Church under the title of Our Lady of

Mount Carmel. For centuries the Carmelites have seen

themselves as specially related to Mary. Their great saints and

theologians have promoted devotion to her and often

championed the mystery of her Immaculate Conception.

Saint Teresa of Avila called Carmel “the Order of the Virgin.”

Saint John of the Cross credited Mary with saving him from

drowning as a child, leading him to Carmel, and helping him

escape from prison. Saint Thérèse of the Child Jesus believed

that Mary cured her from illness. On her First Communion day,

Thérèse dedicated her life to Mary. During the last days of her

life she frequently spoke of Mary.

There is a tradition—which may not be historical—that Mary

appeared to Saint Simon Stock, a leader of the Carmelites, and

gave him a scapular, telling him to promote devotion to it. The

scapular is a modified version of Mary’s own garment. It

symbolizes her special protection and calls the wearers to

consecrate themselves to her in a special way. The scapular

reminds us of the gospel call to prayer and penance—a call that

Mary models in a splendid way.

�

Reflection

The Carmelites were known from early on as “Brothers of Our

Lady of Mount Carmel.” The title suggests that they saw Mary

not only as “mother,” but also as “sister.” The word sister is a

reminder that Mary is very close to us. She is the daughter of

God and therefore can help us be authentic daughters and sons

of God. She also can help us grow in appreciation of being

sisters and brothers to one another. She leads us to a new

realization that all human beings belong to the family of God.

When such a conviction grows, there is hope that the human
