THANK YOU FROM FR. ALEX
GRACIAS DEPARTE DEL
PADRE ALEX
It is never easy to say “goodbye" no wonder, the word goodbye must
be prayed. It is a prayer because we
invoke God’s name and allow Him to
be the bridge that connects people
who are apart. Two years ago, we
have expressed “hello” - the word
that allowed us to enter into the magical world of friendship. This time, we
express “goodbye” not to indicate the
end of friendship but a way of entering the inner sanctuary of friendship.
It is God that annihilates the space
that separates us from one another.
It is through God that we will always
be connected.
It is never easy to say “thank you”
- no wonder the word “Thank you”
must be prayed. Thank You is really
a Prayer! A mystic writer would put it
simply: “If the only prayer you know
is thank you, then that suffices”.
I say Thank You as a Prayer. I
have so many memories here in OLA
- great memories of kindness, gentleness, generosity and unselfishness. You have touched
my heart, you have lifted my spirit and you have
shaped me to become, hopefully, a “better me”. Even
when I was inattentive to your needs and concerns,
you overlooked my failings, weaknesses and my seeming lack of warmth. Truly, I thank God and I really thank
you for walking with me along the Path of Life and for a
fascinating, unexpected and an extremely faith-filled
journey. I can not describe what is so meaningful and
what is so important - I can only pray in gratitude.
El tiempo ha llegado de decir “Adiós”.
Nunca es fácil decirlo, por esto, yo
quiero decirlo como una oración. Es
una oración porque invocamos el
nombre de Dios y le pedimos a Dios
que sea para nosotros un puente que
conecta a las personas separadas.
Hace casi dos años que yo dije
“Hola” - la palabra que nos permite
entrar en el mundo de la amistad.
Ahora, necesitamos decir “Adiós”, no
como el final de la amistad, sino como una manera de entrar en el santuario de una amistad más profunda.
Porque Dios puede aniquilar el espacio que nos separan.
El tiempo ha llegado para decir
“Muchas Gracias” como una oración
más profunda. Un escritor místico
dijo que si la única oración que sabe
es “gracias”, esta es suficiente.
Yo quiero decir “Muchas Gracias”
como una oración. Yo tengo en mi
corazón muchos recuerdos aquí en
OLA - recuerdos profundos de bondad, de gentileza y de generosidad. Ustedes han tocado mi corazón, han levantado mi espíritu y me han formado para ser una persona mejor. Aun cuando yo no
atendí a sus necesidades y preocupaciones, ustedes
me perdonaron mis debilidades y defectos. Gracias a
Dios y gracias a todos ustedes por el camino tan fascínate que hemos tomado. No puedo describir las cosas
que son tan significativas y tan importantes – solo puedo decir “Gracias a Dios” como una oración.

Peter’s Pence Collection
Pope Francis continues to call each of us to
be a witness of charity. “To love God and
neighbor is not something abstract,” he
said, “but profoundly concrete: it means
seeing in every person the face of the Lord
to be served, to serve him concretely.” The
Peter’s Pence Collection unites us in solidarity with the Holy Father and his works of charity toward
those who are suffering around the world. Pope Francis
reminds us that true power lies not in amassing possessions and resources for ourselves but in giving. Your contributions to the Peter’s Pence Collection allow our Holy
Father to support victims of war and natural disasters and
all our brothers and sisters who face the greatest need.
Join Pope Francis and be a witness of charity throughout
the world.. Donation envelopes will be available in the
pews next weekend.

Safe Environment
Adult Ministries
Did You Know?
Opportunity for Adult Faith Formation
By teaching “total body safety” we further
efforts to stop abuse
Are you looking for a way this summer to continue to grow deeper in
your faith journey and relationship
with God? Are you hoping for an
experience of a small faith group,
or are you considering becoming
Catholic and receiving the sacraments of initiation? Then welcome
to our summer Adult Faith Formation series hosted by the Women's & Men's Ministries and the RCIA team. For 6 successive Wednesday evenings beginning June 24 from
7:00-8:30 pm, these ministries will host and facilitate a
series based on Fr. Albert Haase' book “Catching Fire,
Becoming Flame”. Each evening will be centered on a 30
minute video created by Fr. Albert based on 6 themes
from his book. We’ll then break into small groups, and
enjoy some time for praise and worship. There will be no
cost for this series, since it is hosted by members of our
own parish. For this reason we ask all who are interested in attending to register with Kati Excallier
([email protected] - 642-7966 ext. 142) so we can
be sure to plan according to the level of overall interest.
Parents and caregivers should stress that a child’s entire
body is private and be watchful of adults who might be
“grooming” a child by constantly tickling, kissing, or hugging them. A child will often tell a parent he or she does
not want to hug or kiss someone – and parents should
listen and respect their wishes. By teaching “total body
safety” to adults, children, and young people, we are furthering our efforts to stop
abuse and to make the
world a safer place for all of
God’s children. For a copy

Liturgical Ministries
First Friday
The First Friday Devotions are a set of Catholic devotions to especially recognize the Sacred Heart of Jesus,
and through it offer reparations for sins. On these days,
a person is to attend Holy Mass and receive communion.
If the need arises in order to receive communion in a
state of grace, a person should also make use of the
Sacrament of Penance before attending Mass. In many
Catholic communities the practice of the Holy Hour of
meditation during the Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament during the First Fridays is encouraged. First Friday
Masses are offered at 6:30 a.m., 8:00 a.m. and 5:15
p.m. Benediction, Adoration and Confession will follow the 5:15 p.m. Mass. There will not be any receptions after the 6:30 a.m. and 8:00 a.m. masses due to
the observance of the July 4th holiday.
Liturgy of the Word
The lector ministry at OLA is a great way
for a parishioner to get more involved in
the Sacrifice of the Mass. We have over
80 parishioners participating. It is a
great group and is a lot of fun. Please
consider joining this important ministry. If you have any
questions, please call Tim Noonan at (805)290-3720.

¿Sabía Usted?
Cuando enseñamos “seguridad corporal total”,
ayudamos a disminuir los abusos
Los padres y otros adultos responsables de los niños
deben enseñarles que sus cuerpos son privados. Deben
también, estar en alerta con los adultos que puedan
estar “preparando” a un niño, haciéndole cosquillas
constantemente,
besándolo
o
abrazándolo.
Normalmente los niños les dicen a sus padres si no
quieren abrazar o darle un beso a alguien, y los padres
deben escuchar y respetar los deseos de sus hijos. Al
enseñar “seguridad corporal total” los adultos, jóvenes y
niños, estamos avanzando en nuestros esfuerzos por
detener el abuso sexual infantil, haciendo del mundo un
lugar más seguro para todos los hijos de Dios. Para

Colecta Peter’s Pence
El Papa Francisco continúa
haciéndonos el llamado a ser
testigos de la caridad. Nos dice
que “Amar a Dios y al prójimo no
es algo abstracto, sino algo
profundamente concreto: es ver
en cada persona la cara del
Señor y servirle, servirle concretamente.” La Colecta
Peter’s Pence nos une en solidaridad con el Santo
Padre y sus obras de caridad hacia los que sufren
alrededor del mundo. El Papa Francisco nos recuerda
que el verdadero poder no se encuentra en la
acumulación de posesiones y recursos para nosotros
mismos, sino en el dar. Su contribución a la Colecta
Peter’s Pence le permite al Santo Padre apoyar a las
víctimas de guerra y de desastres naturales y a todos
nuestros hermanos y hermanas quienes enfrentan una
gran necesidad. Únase al Papa Francisco y sea testigo
de la caridad en todo el mundo. Los sobres para de
donación estarán en las bancas el próximo fin de
semana.
