Let us pray, pray, pray....for their comfort and that this may never happen again. Tuesday,June21st|SaintAloysiusGonzaga We should also use our intellect to understand the causes and motives of the shooting. Until we have all of the facts, we can't know with certainty all of what was in the mind of the killer. But we do know he was filled with hatred toward his victims. Based on his own statement of allegiance to the Islamic State, we know he justified his action with an ideology that says God blesses the killing of infidels. 8:30am 12:00pm 6:30pm This is a lie. God never commands us to kill the innocent. As Pope Francis says often, "the name of God is mercy". Monday,June20th|Weekday 8:30am Luisa and Casimiro Cibelli and Children 12:00pm Vito Signorile and Gino Raguso 6:30pm Gennaro Scotti Rose, Paul and Rocco Neglio Jean and Emidio Subranni Luigi D’ Angelo Wednesday,June22nd|SaintPaulinusofNola 8:30am Michele and Anna Maria Pascarelli 12:00pm Vincenzo Mannini 6:30pm Luigi Capriglione Thursday,June23rd|Weekday You and I can't stop every hateful action, but we can work together to build a civilization of love. We begin by rejecting every form of hatred. In this case, the killer targeted people at a gay club. We know he also expressed previously his hatred toward black people, Jews, and Christians. None of this is acceptable. 8:30am Carmine Navarra 12:00pm Maria, Michael and Mario Campanelli 6:30pm Richard Pizzonia Our children need to hear, over and over again, in our families and in our churches, that we reject every type of violence, bigotry, and prejudice. And we treat people with respect, even people with whom we disagree. Friday,June24th|TheNativityofStJohnTheBaptist By doing so, we might just be saving our nation from another tragedy. 8:30am Giovanni Cozzolino 12:00pm Giovanni Trombetta 6:30pm Rosa Cuomo Saturday,June25th|Weekday 8:30am Guglielmo D’ Angelo 12:00pm Maria, Giuseppe and Luigi Florio 5:00pm Andrea Maria, Steve and Anthony Acierno Sunday,June26th|XIIISundayinOrdinaryTime 8:30am 9:30am 11:00am 12:15pm 1:30pm Tina Di Palermo Pro Populo Giovanni Trombetta Christiane Joseph Manuel Amadeo WEEKEND MASS COLLECTION - 6/12/2016 Collection ........................................................$4,671.65 Last year’s Collection …..................................$3,549.01 Thank you all for your generosity!!

Peter replies that Jesus is the Messiah, the anointed one of God. Jesus’ question is one that we have to answer for ourselves if we are to live as his disciples today. It is easy to avoid a direct answer, just following the rules and saying the right prayers, without ever facing this question. Marianne lives in a small town. “I’d heard this passage many times before, but one day in parish Bible study it was as if I were hearing it for the first time. Driving home, I knew Jesus was the one whom God had sent into this world for me. Is Jesus the center of your life? If not, why not? La confessione di Pietro, l’annuncio della passione di Gesù e l’invito a seguire il suo esempio costituiscono un’unità organica. Gesù è il Messia, ma non come quello di cui fantasticavano gli uomini. Egli segue il cammino tracciato da Dio, che è il cammino della croce. Chiunque vuole essere con lui, deve seguirlo in questo cammino. Rispetto agli altri evangelisti, Luca introduce alcuni cambiamenti ed accenti caratteristici. Non cita il luogo della conversazione di Gesù con i discepoli, lega questa conversazione alla preghiera di Gesù e, soprattutto, rivolge a tutti l’invito ad imitare Cristo. È un invito importante, che non è rivolto solo agli eletti, ai santi e agli uomini pronti all’eroismo. Tutti i credenti sono discepoli di Cristo. Egli non li tratta come mercenari, ma come amici, vuole che lo accompagnino nel suo cammino e prendano parte alle sue sofferenze. Il suo destino deve essere anche il loro. Che essi portino ogni giorno la loro croce. Gesù non parla del martirio, che può capitare una sola volta, ma delle sofferenze che ognuno incontra nell’adempimento serio del proprio dovere e delle difficoltà quotidiane che devono essere sopportate pazientemente grazie all’amore per lui. OLMC YOUTH GROUP - “ROOTED” MEMORIALS OFFERED THIS WEEK Jesus I knew there would be consequences! No more teasing my friend about her ‘What would Jesus do?’ bracelet!” she said. “I’ll be asking myself this question all the time.” Challenges remain for Marianne: she cares for her elderly mother and copes with diabetes, but she says, “I trust in God more and I’m more open with other people than ever before.” Living Stewardship Now Mass Wine Our Youth Group meets every Saturday in Fatima Hall from 2pm to 4pm.

Amen REFLEXIONEMOS LA PALABRA DE DIOS Evangelio del Domingo: Lucas 9, 18-24 Jesús le pregunta a sus discípulos: “Según ustedes, ¿quién soy yo?” (Lucas 9:20). Pedro responde que Jesús es el Mesías, el ungido de Dios. La pregunta de Jesús también la debemos contestar nosotros si hemos de vivir como discípulos suyos. Es fácil evadir una respuesta directa, conformarnos con cumplir las reglas y decir las oraciones correctas sin confrontar esa pregunta. Mariana vive en un pueblo pequeño. “He oído este pasaje muchas veces, pero un día durante un estudio bíblico en la parroquia fue como si lo escuchara por primera vez. Manejando de regreso a casa, caí en cuenta de que Jesús es el enviado de Dios para mí. ¡Y sabía que esto me iba a traer consecuencias! Ya no me iba a reír más de mi amiga con su brazalete con la inscripción, ‘¿Qué haría Jesús?’, pues yo misma me estaré haciendo esa pregunta todo el tiempo”, dice Mariana. Los desafíos continúan para Mariana, ya que aparte de sufrir de diabetes cuida también de su mamá anciana. Pero dice ella: “Ahora confío más en Dios y estoy más abierta que nunca a los demás”. Viviendo la Palabra de Dios ¿Es Jesús el centro de tu vida? Si no es así, ¿por qué no? GRUPO JUVENIL “ROOTED” Invitamos a todos los Jóvenes de 9 a 12 grado a participar del Grupo Juvenil todos los Sábado de 2pm a 4pm en el Salón de Fatima. ¡Te esperamos!

Sacrifice every day some of your natural inclinations to the Sacred Heart of Our Lord, and learn little by little to lose yourself in Him.
