The Pastor’s Desk
Dear Friends,
May the Lord give you peace!
You have no doubt seen the Franciscan artwork in the Carnevale
Center, especially in Downey Hall. The paintings of Franciscan
Saints, Our Lady of Guadalupe and St. Joseph are all commissioned
works by Brother David Haack, OFM. Many of you may have
met Brother David over the years at one of his many exhibits in
the Carnevale Center. I am sorry to tell you that Brother David was
visited by Sister Death and went home to God on Wednesday, July
20. His funeral was Monday, July 25 at St. Bonaventure University
where Brother David lived and ministered for many years. Please
keep Brother David, his family and the friars in your prayers.
You are always so generous to the St. Mary’s Food Pantry and
I am very grateful! One of our local Pompton Lakes merchants
is offering another way to give to the Food Pantry. Avenue
Haircutters on Wanaque Avenue is taking $1 off your haircut if
you bring in a nonperishable food item for the Food Pantry. This
drive goes until the end of September. Thanks to Pete DiMarco
and everyone at Avenue Hair Cutters!
Remember last year when I introduced the St. Mary’s Discipleship
Prayer? Well, here it is for your praying pleasure! Have a great
week!
Pace e Bene,
Fr. Frank Sevola, OFM, Pastor
St. Mary’s Discipleship Prayer
Blessed are You, Lord God of all creation,
In Your goodness You have created us
In Your mercy, You have redeemed us
And in Your ever loving Wisdom You sustain us with Your
Spirit.
You have given us the gift of faith, the gift of the St. Mary’s
community and the gift of Your call to be Your disciples.
We beg you now for the gifts of:
Enlightenment
that through our PRAYER we may know your holy and true
command;
Discipleship
that we may SERVE the needs of the community and not simply
our own, and
Gratitude
that we may GIVE of ourselves for the good of all.
May we discover what is ours to do and may we do good works
each day for the sake of Your Kingdom.
Amen.
Fr. Frank can be reached at [email protected]

Misa en Español
Los domingos a las 9:00AM en el Centro Carnevale (10 Lenox Ave,
Pompton Lakes, NJ). Durante el año celebramos varias eucaristías
en la iglesia principal. Algunas celebraciones son bilingües como
la Fiesta de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe, la Vigilia Pascual, y el
Día de Acción de Gracias (Thanksgiving)
31 DE JULIO 2016 – XVIII Domingo ordinario
“…Un hombre rico obtuvo una gran cosecha y se puso a pensar:
‘¿Qué haré, porque no tengo ya en dónde almacenar la cosecha?
Ya sé lo que voy a hacer: derribaré mis graneros y construiré
otros más grandes para guardar ahí mi cosecha y todo lo que
tengo. Entonces podré decirme: Ya tienes bienes acumulados para
muchos años; descansa, come, bebe y date a la buena vida’. Pero
Dios le dijo: ‘¡Insensato! Esta misma noche vas a morir. ¿Para
quién serán todos tus bienes?’ Lo mismo le pasa al que amontona
riquezas para sí mismo y no se hace rico de lo que vale ante Dios.”
Lucas 12: 13:21
LUNES 1 DE AGOSTO 2016- Memoria de San Alfonso
Maria de Ligorio (1696-1787)
Supo decir “sí” al Señor y que tomó muy en serio las palabras del
Evangelio: “Ustedes son la sal de la tierra” (Mt 5,13). Alfonso era
de familia distinguida, inteligente y estudioso. ¡Abogado a los 19
años y hombre justo que no pierde ningún caso! Un día descubrió
que había apoyado —sin saberlo— una causa que no
(Continúa en la siguiente columna)
era justa, y eso le llevó a replantearse radicalmente la vida. Hizo
un retiro y recibió la Confirmación. Estos dos eventos reavivaron
su fervor. Al año siguiente, en dos ocasiones oyó una voz que le
decía: —Abandona el mundo y entrégate a mí. Muy pronto Dios
le confirmó cuál era su voluntad.
JUEVES 4 DE AGOSTO - Memoria de San Juan
Vianney
“Nuestro corazón es pequeño pero la oración lo engrandece y lo
hace capaz de amar a Dios. La oración es un anticipo del cielo”
(San Juan Mª Vianney). Profundo conocedor del interior del
hombre, el santo Cura de Ars llevó en su oración a multitud de
gentes y las condujo a experimentar la ternura del Buen Pastor.
Necesitamos tomar la mano de Cristo que se nos ofrece bajo la
figura de un pastor o de una persona sensible a nuestro dolor.
SABADO 6 DE AGOSTO: La Transfiguración del Señor
La montaña del Tabor, como la del Sinaí, es el lugar de la
proximidad con Dios. Es el espacio elevado, respecto a la
existencia diaria donde se respira el aire puro de la Creación. Es el
lugar de la oración donde se está en la presencia del Señor, como
Moisés y Elías que aparecen con Jesús transfigurado hablando con
Él acerca del Éxodo que le esperaba en Jerusalén (es decir, su
Pascua).
