Dear Saint Mary’s Family,

My beloved sisters and brothers:

On behalf of Fr. Richard, Deacons Hal and Tom, all Saint Mary’s Staff and myself, I want to invite you again to give thanks to our Lord for the gift of our brothers Fr. Frank and Fr. Joe, who have served our parish with dedication, love and a good sense of humor. Inspired by the Holy Spirit and following the example of Francis of Assisi, they used the many talents God has given them to build His Kingdom. Please join us next Sunday, August 20, to say bye bye to our brothers at the 12 Noon Mass, followed by a reception at the Carnevale Center. ¡Nos vemos el próximo fin de semana! Lord, deepen in us our love for You today, so that in all things we may find our good and the good of others!

Your brother and servant in Christ, in the spirit of Francis of Assisi, Padre Gonzalo

FaithDirect

As you are probably aware, church attendance during the summer months tends to drop off as vacations and

weekend sporting events often conflict. On the other hand, the services we provide within the parish and for the larger community continue year round, as do their associated expenses. Thus, your consistent financial support of our parish is vital to achieving our stewardship mission.

The easiest way to be sure that your gift of treasure reaches us, even when you can’t be here, is through enrollment in our electronic offertory program: Faith Direct. If you have not yet enrolled, please consider doing so this month.

Enrollment forms are available in the church office or you can visit Faith Direct’s secure website www.faithdirect.net to enroll online. Our parish code is NJ23

St. Mary’s Annual Fund

Please pray about your gift to St. Mary’s and realize it is more than a gift; it is a commitment to the ongoing

life of our parish.

Thank you very much!

Fr. Frank Sevola, OFM

El Proceso de Encuentro en la pastoral hispana/latina ha sido una vivencia profundamente eclesial. Es motivado por la lectura de los signos de los tiempos y convocado por los obispos, quienes llaman al pueblo hispano/latino à elevar su voz profética. En el contexto de este diálogo entre los obispos y el pueblo se vive una pastoral de conjunto iluminada por una eclesiología de comunión y una vocación misionera que busca llegar hasta aquellos que se encuentran alejados de la vida y de la visión de la iglesia. El objetivo central del Proceso de Encuentro es discernir la respuesta pastoral de la iglesia hacia la presencia hispana/latina y potenciar la respuesta del pueblo hispano/latino como iglesia.

13 DE AGOSTO DE 2017- DECIMONOVENO DOMINGO ORDINARIOEntonces le dijo Pedro: “Señor, si eres tú, mándame ir a ti caminando sobre el agua”. Jesús le contestó: “Ven”. Pedro bajó de la barca y comenzó a caminar sobre el agua hacia Jesús; pero al sentir la fuerza del viento, le entró miedo, comenzó a hundirse y gritó: “¡Sálvame, Señor!” Inmediatamente Jesús le tendió la mano, lo sostuvo y le dijo: “Hombre de poca fe, ¿por qué dudaste?” En cuanto subieron a la barca, el viento se calmó. Los que estaban en la barca se postraron ante Jesús diciendo: “Verdaderamente tú eres el Hijo de Dios”. Mateo 14:22-33

LUNES 14 DE AGOSTO 2017- Memoria de San Maximiliano María Kolbe, mártir(1894 - 1941) fue un clérigo franciscano conventual polaco asesinado por los nazis en un campo de concentración durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. A fines de julio de 1941 se fugó un preso del campo de concentración de Auschwitz. A la mañana siguiente, diez hombres fueron elegidos para ser ajusticiados en represalia por el escapado. Uno de los diez señalados para morir musitó estas palabras: “Pobre esposa mía; pobres hijos míos”. Maximiliano Kolbe, afectado por una tuberculosis desde bastante antes, estaba cerca y lo oyó. Enseguida, dio un paso adelante y le dijo al coronel: “Soy un sacerdote católico polaco, estoy ya viejo. Querría ocupar el puesto de ese hombre que tiene esposa e hijos”. Maximiliano Kolbe, que tenía entonces 47 años, fue puesto, junto con otros nueve prisioneros, en ayuno obligado para que muriera. Tras padecer tres semanas de hambre extrema, el 14 de agosto de 1941 aún sobrevivía junto a otros tres condenados. Kolbe y sus tres compañeros de celda fueron asesinados administrándoles una inyección de fenol. Incluso en prisión y también en la celda de hambre, celebró, mientras pudo, todos los días la Santa Misa.

MARTES 15 DE AGOSTO 2017-Solemnidad de Asunción de la Santísima Virgen María“(…) Entonces dijo María:“Mi alma glorifica al Señory mi espíritu se llena de júbilo en Dios, mi salvador,porque puso sus ojos en la humildad de su esclava.Desde ahora me llamarán dichosa todas las generaciones,porque ha hecho en mí grandes cosas el que todo lo puede.Santo es su nombrey su misericordia llega de generación en generacióna los que lo temen.Ha hecho sentir el poder de su brazo:dispersó a los de corazón altanero,destronó a los potentadosy exaltó a los humildes.A los hambrientos los colmó de bienesy a los ricos los despidió sin nada.Acordándose de su misericordia,vino en ayuda de Israel, su siervo,como lo había prometido a nuestros padres,a Abraham y a su descendenciapara siempre’’” Lucas: 1:39-56
