Summertime can be a wonderful time of year.
Families get together for reunions, or pack up for a
fun weekend trip or maybe even make plans to get
away for an extended period of time for a welldeserved vacation. These are all good things to do.
But I know from experience, that when we plan to be
away for awhile, we must make arrangements for
things to be taken care of while we are gone.
Although the church doesn’t “go on vacation” the
people that “are” the Church do. Many ministers are
unavailable during the summer and we often have
positions that need to be filled.
As we approach summer and vacation times, I do
want to again stress the importance for liturgical
ministers to serve at your assigned time, or get a
substitute. Finding a substitute can be done from your
smartphone and can be as easy as clicking an app.
Contact Cheryl Shaffer at 702-804-8311 or
[email protected] if you have any questions. You
may think we will never miss you, but we do. Your
ministry makes a difference!
Thank you to all the Parishioners who volunteer their
time and talents to lend a hand at our weekend
liturgies. May God bless you.
Yours in Christ,
Fr. Bede Wevita,
Pastor

A Stewardship Moment
In today’s Gospel, Jesus compares the beginning of
God’s kingdom to a mustard seed. This tiny seed,
which fits in the palm of a hand, can grow to fifteen
feet with sprawling branches! Like the mustard seed,
the Christian community had a tiny, seemingly
insignificant beginning. The church, which began
with about 120 followers, added three thousand
people on Pentecost Day following the descent of the
Holy Spirit. Since then, the number of Christ’s
disciples has grown incalculably and continues to
grow throughout the world. Good stewards go about
God’s business of “planting seeds” among all those
they encounter. What will we do this week to add to
God’s kingdom?

Catechetical Corner
Display of Flags in
Catholic Churches
Surprisingly to many, there are no regulations of any
kind governing the display of flags in Roman Catholic
churches. Neither the Code of Canon Law nor the
liturgical books of the Roman rite comment on this
practice. As a
result, the
question of
whether and
how to display
the American
flag in a
Catholic
church is left
up to the
judgment of
the diocesan
bishop, who
in turn often
delegates this
to the
discretion of
the pastor.
The origin of
the display of
the American flag in many parishes in the United
States appears have its origins in the offering of
prayers for those who served during the Second
World War (1941-1945). At that time, many bishops
and pastors provided a book of remembrance near
the American flag, requesting prayers for loved
ones—especially those serving their country in the
armed forces—as a way of keeping before the
attention of the faithful the needs of military families.
This practice has since been confirmed in many
places during the Korean, Vietnam, and Iraqi
conflicts.
The Bishops’ Committee on the Liturgy has in the past
encouraged pastors not to place the flag within the
sanctuary itself, in order to reserve that space for the
altar, the ambo, the presidential chair, and the
tabernacle. Instead, the suggestion has been made
that the American flag be placed outside the
sanctuary, or in the vestibule of the church together
with a book of prayer requests. It remains, however,
for the diocesan bishop to determine regulations in
this matter.

The Word In Our Lives
The Big Picture
We hear about the Kingdom of
God in many of Jesus’ parables.
Jesus must have gotten tired of
trying to explain it, but he never
gives up. In today’s passage, he
uses parables to describe how the
kingdom will spread. What is
interesting is that these parables
are not so much about our actions
as they are about how God builds
his kingdom.
Let’s start with the second
parable: Jesus exaggerates a little,
with the mustard seed being the
smallest seed and the bush being
the largest plant. His point is that
the kingdom may look small at
first, but it will keep growing. The
image of all the birds coming to
the branches is taken from Old
Testament passages, in Daniel and
Ezekiel, about other people
coming into Jerusalem to worship
the one LORD. Jesus implies that
the growing kingdom will attract
outsiders to be members. The
main point is not to be
discouraged when it seems the
kingdom is not growing: We
might be limiting it to people who
think and act just like ourselves.
We might see attendance at
church in our parish declining. So
Jesus is reminding us to think of
the bigger picture.
In the first
parable
about the
man who
scattered
seeds, Jesus
says that
those seeds
produce a
harvest,
even though
the farmer
doesn’t
know how
or why
those seeds
can grow.
We too can
be doing
things that
help the
Kingdom to
grow,
without
knowing
how we are helping. The obvious
example is prayer: We may not
see the results of our prayer, or
not know if God is answering our
prayer. But God is making the
kingdom grow in his own way
and in his own time. Like the
farmer, we can help it grow by
loving each other, teaching our
children about Jesus, caring for
the poor and the sick.
If the farmer were to let weeds
choke his crop, or be stingy with
his seeds, he might not have a
very good harvest. We can be
stingy with our love, or hurt
people with our anger. Then we
would be slowing the growth of
the kingdom. So let us always be
aware of the kingdom, and ask
God to move us to do whatever
we can to help it grow.

Fact of Faith
Things You Won’t See At
A Catholic Wedding
by Rev. Larry Rice, CSP
There are few events in life that
are as steeped in tradition as a
wedding. And the traditions
surrounding weddings come to us
through our families, our friends,
our culture, and our religious
traditions.
But every religious tradition
handles weddings differently, and
some of the things that people
expect to see and hear, are often
not part of the Catholic way of
celebrating weddings.
For example, in some traditions,
at the conclusion of the
procession into the church, the
presiding minister may ask, “Who
gives this woman to be married?”
And the father of the bride will be
expected to respond that he, or he
and his wife, do. At Catholic
weddings, it’s presumed that the
bride—and the groom for that
matter—give themselves to each
other.
If you’ve ever seen a wedding on
a television series, you’re
probably familiar with the
dramatic possibilities that arise
when the minister asks, “If anyone
knows any reason why these two
should not be wed, let him speak
now, or forever hold his peace.”
Well, we Catholics don’t do that.
In many places, notices of
upcoming weddings are
published, allowing anyone with
objections to come forward before
the couple gets to the altar.
Another touching moment in most
TV weddings is the phrase, “With
this ring, I thee wed.” For us
Catholics, the moment of the
marriage is the exchange of
consent, and the speaking of the
vows. The ring is a symbol of the
union that has already taken
place. We bless wedding rings,
and they are exchanged with the
phrase, “Take this ring as a sign of
my love and fidelity, in the name
of the Father, and of the Son, and
of the Holy Spirit.”
Another thing we don’t say at
Catholic weddings is “I now
pronounce you man and wife.”
We believe that the couple
becomes husband and wife not
-7-
because the minister declares
them to be such, but because they
have given their consent and
made their vows to each other.
The function of the priest or
deacon is to preside and witness
these vows, not to make the
marriage happen.
Through all of the ceremony, the
emphasis is on what the bride and
groom do, and not on anyone
else. This celebration of love and
unity mirrors the love of God for
his people, and should inspire all
of us to be more loving, more
committed people.

Stewardship
Stewardship Saint for June
known as a great
stewardship saint.
St. Anthony was born on the
Feast of the Assumption in
Lisbon, Portugal, in 1195 to
a wealthy and educated
family of the Portuguese
nobility. He entered the
Augustinian religious
community at an early age
where he devoted himself to
the study of sacred scripture
and Latin classics.
St. Anthony of Padua is
one of the most beloved and
admired saints in the church.
Because he was a prolific
preacher and witness to the
Gospel in his personal life, he is
He joined the Franciscan
Order when he was 26 years
old and traveled tirelessly to
preach what it meant to live
according to the Gospel. He
is believed to have made as
many as 400 trips to towns in
both northern Italy and southern
France.
St. Anthony knew that preaching
was not enough to help people
understand how to live according
to the Gospel. He believed he had
to give witness to the Gospel by
the way he lived his personal life.
He adopted and maintained a
simple lifestyle consistent with
what he believed the Gospel was
calling him to.
St. Anthony died in Padua, Italy,
on June 13, 1231 at the age of 36.
He was proclaimed a saint less
than one year after his death. So
simple, yet compelling and
inspiring was St. Anthony’s
teaching of the Catholic faith that
he was declared a Doctor of the
Church by Pope Pius XII in 1946.
Best known for his patronage of
seekers of lost items, St. Anthony
is commonly referred to today as
the “finder of lost articles.” Few
people know that he is the patron
of many other causes including
the poor and those who travel.
His feast day is June 13.
A Special Message for Summer Travelers
Would you find it helpful to have your offerings debited
directly from your bank account as you probably do with
other obligations? St. Elizabeth Ann Seton offers
electronic giving for those of you who wish to have
contributions transferred electronically to the church’s
account. If you have plans to travel this summer,
electronic giving gives you a convenient way to keep up
with your intended offerings. Set up and manage your
account at www.seaslv.org. Helen Little in the parish
office for more information.

Stewardship
During the spring and summer months, when
school is out, family’s feel the strain on their
budget because of the need to provide more
food for their children who are now at home.
Our pantry will continue to assist families in
need of these resources.
The Outreach Ministry works closely with
Catholic Charities of Southern Nevada, and
they have informed us that they are no longer
in need of sandwiches for their day workers.
They do, however, still need our support with
many other programs throughout the year,
such as our Back to School Backpack Drive
(which is right around the corner!).
As always, many thanks and
much gratitude for all you
do for the Outreach Program
and those we assist.
Without your donations we would not be able
to continue these worthwhile and much
needed programs. Please see the following for
a list of suggested items:
 F o r F a m i l y F o o d B a g s :
Canned meats, vegetables, soup, boxed
potatoes, Tuna helper, boxed rice, mac &
cheese, pasta, pasta sauce, cereal, baby
diapers, toiletries, detergent, etc.
 S c r i p ( G i f t C a r d s ) f o r P e r i s h a b l e
Items:
Our pantry has limited refrigeration and storage
which makes storing perishable items next to
impossible. By offering scrip (gift cards), it
allows our families to purchase fresh food as
needed. We are able to purchase Smith’s scrip
(gift cards) at a substantial savings; therefore
getting more for our money. If you would like
to help us purchase these gift cards, please
drop your donation in the Poor Box. We will
be happy to purchase the scrip for you.

Philippines.
I obtained Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) with 7
units at Saint Elizabeth’s Hospital Washington DC
while in residence at Our Lady of Perpetual Help
Parish in Washington DC. I was also the Priest
chaplain at Mercy Fitzgerald Hospital Darby, PA
while in residence at St. Frances De Sales Parish in
Philadelphia.
In 2010, I moved to the Catholic Archdiocese of
Santa Fe while and worked priest chaplain in the
hospitals in Albuquerque while residing at Our Lady
of Fatima parish in Albuquerque.
I am a certified member of the National Association
of Catholic Chaplains (NACC). Due to the zeal in my
hospital ministry I still want to reach out to hospitals
to bring Christ to our sick and wounded brothers and
sisters. This again took me to St. Rose Dominican
hospitals in Henderson/Las Vegas Nevada, to
continue the hospital ministry for another two years.
With the completion of the two years, I’m accepted to
work in the Diocese of Las Vegas with the first
assignment at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton parish. I’m
finishing my on-line doctoral dissertation on Christian
counseling with dissertation title on “art of listening:
an effective tool in healing.
I love Carl Rogers’s simple psychology: for a person
to "grow", they need an environment that provides
them with genuineness (openness and selfdisclosure), acceptance (being seen with
unconditional positive regard), and empathy (being
listened to and understood…)
I love quiet moments, listening to Christian music,
swimming and track events.
