Sacred Heart Parish Family $2,865.00 2 303 Paris Street, East Boston, MA 02128 SIXTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME JULY 20, 2014 From the Deacon’s Desk: A note from Fr. Wayne . . . Many times people ask me a similar question; namely, What is Opus Dei? The best answer is that Opus Dei is part of the Catholic Church. The name is Latin for “Work of God”. Opus Dei’s mission is to spread the Christian message that every person is called to holiness and that every honest work can be sanctified. In other words, Opus Dei shares a simple yet profound message: We are called to be saints! You may ask: “Is that really possible? Can I be a saint?” The short answer is yes! You are called and you can become a saint! Opus Dei offers support and guidance to help all those who want, whether or not they are members, to aim at holiness in their ordinary lives, especially through their everyday work. People of all kinds belong to Opus Dei: priests and lay people, men and women, young and old, married and single, of every occupation and social situation. Most members are married and have families – these are called supernumeraries. Some members (numeraries and associates) make a commitment to celibacy, and so generally have more time and availability to dedicate to the various activities promoted by Opus Dei. Some celibate men are ordained as priests, who make up roughly 2% of the membership. There are currently about 85,000 members of Opus Dei worldwide. Sacred Heart Eucharistic Society Mark your calendar for Friday, August 8th at 6:30 p.m. HOLY HOUR for LIFE with the ROSARY for LIFE In recent weeks, the United States Supreme Court has issued two rulings favorable to the Gospel of Life; the first was the Hobby Lobby decision – that no longer requires Christian owned companies to offer coverage for abortions. The second ending the 35 foot barrier between Pro-life Advocates and abortion clinics – allowing a greater distribution of pro-life materials and counseling. Our prayers are stilled needed! Please join us! Immediately following the Holy Hour with the Rosary, the Sacred Heart Eucharistic Society will serve coffee and something sweet. Hope to see you there. Please join us Saturday morning after the Mass at 8:00 a.m. for Eucharistic Adoration. During Adoration, we pray the Rosary, have confession, and spend some time with the Lord. An Evening Under the Stars Forgive up to what point? by Francisco Ugarte Please join us on Friday, August 22nd at 7:00 p.m. For a Cocktail ~ Lawn Party. The all-embracing outreach of forgiveness extends also to those that are hardest to forgive: those suffered by the people we love most. In these cases, our emotions tell us that to forgive the guilty party is to betray our affection for the victim. But we must not let ourselves be led by emotion. We must try to distinguish between our affection for the beloved person and our forgiveness of the aggressor, which rests upon different, compelling grounds. As much as possible we will try to make love concrete by seeking the good of both parties: the one who has suffered the offense, whom we love naturally, through the help and affection that are due him or her; and the one who has inflicted injury through corrective action that will encourage him to repent and reform. Sacred Heart Parish Family XVI TEMPO ORDINARIO Tickets are now available after Mass or at the rectory. Each ticket is $25.00 There will be four Tasting Stations with hot and cold Hor d’oeuvres and a Cash Bar. The Cocktail Party will take place on the back Lawn of the Church. All proceeds to benefit Sacred Heart Parish. 3 303 Paris Street, East Boston, MA 02128 SIXTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME JULY 20, 2014 XVI TEMPO ORDINARIO Mostri la tua forza quando non si crede nella pienezza del tuo potere, e rigetti l’insolenza di coloro che pur la conoscono. Padrone della forza, tu giudichi con mitezza e ci governi con molta indulgenza, perché, quando vuoi, tu eserciti il potere. Con tale modo di agire hai insegnato al tuo popolo che il giusto deve amare gli uomini, e hai dato ai tuoi figli la buona speranza che, dopo i peccati, tu concedi il pentimento. Secondo le Scritture . . . La Pazienza Una tendenza spontanea degli uomini è quella di ripartire l’umanità in due grandi categorie: i buoni da una parte, i cattivi dall’altra. Questa tendenza è presente anche sul piano religioso. Si invocano benedizioni su di sé, sulla propria famiglia, sulla propria nazione; le maledizioni colpiscano gli altri, i nemici, quelli che si oppongono. Verbum Domini Deo Gratias L’INGRESSO SALMO RESPONSORIALE Rit: Com’è bello, Signor, stare insieme ed amarci come ami Tu; qui c’è Dio, Alleluia! Tu sei buono, Signore, e perdoni. La carità è paziente, la carità è benigna, comprende, non si adirà e non dispera mai. Rit: Com’è bello, Signor, stare insieme ed amarci come ami Tu; qui c’è Dio, Alleluia! SECONDA LETTURA Dalla lettera di san Paolo apostolo ai Romani Fratelli, lo Spirito viene in aiuto alla nostra debolezza; non sappiamo infatti come pregare in modo conveniente, ma lo Spirito stesso intercede con gemiti inesprimibili; e colui che scruta i cuori sa che cosa desidera lo Spirito, perché egli intercede per i santi secondo i disegni di Dio. La carità perdona, la carità si adatta, si dona senza sosta con gioia e umiltà. Rit: Com’è bello, Signor, stare insieme ed amarci come ami Tu; qui c’è Dio, Alleluia! La carità è la legge, la carità è la vita, abbraccia tutto il mondo e in ciel si compirà. Rit: Com’è bello, Signor, stare insieme ed amarci come ami Tu; qui c’è Dio, Alleluia! Verbum Domini Alleluia, alleluia. GLORIA Ti rendo lode, Padre, Signore del cielo e della terra, perché ai piccoli hai rivelato i misteri del Regno. Gloria a Dio nell'alto dei cieli e pace in terra agli uomini di buona volontà. Noi ti lodiamo, ti benediciamo, ti adoriamo, ti glorifichiamo, ti rendiamo grazie per la tua gloria immensa, Signore Dio, Re del cielo, Dio Padre onnipotente. Signore, Figlio unigenito, Gesù Cristo, Signore Dio, Agnello di Dio, Figlio del Padre; tu che togli i peccati del mondo, abbi pietà di noi; tu che togli i peccati del mondo, accogli la nostra supplica; tu che siedi alla destra del Padre, abbi pietà di noi. Perché tu solo il Santo, tu solo il Signore, tu solo l'Altissimo Gesù Cristo, con lo Spirito Santo nella gloria di Dio Padre. Amen. Alleluia. VANGELO Il Signore sia con tutti voi Dal vangelo di Matteo E con il tuo spirito. Gloria a Te, O’ Signore. In quel tempo, Gesù espose alla folla un’altra parabola, dicendo: «Il regno dei cieli è simile a un uomo che ha seminato del buon seme nel suo campo. Ma, mentre tutti dormivano, venne il suo nemico, seminò della zizzania in mezzo al grano e se ne andò. Quando poi lo stelo crebbe e fece frutto, spuntò anche la zizzania. Allora i servi andarono dal padrone di casa e gli dissero: “Signore, non hai seminato del buon seme nel tuo campo? Da dove viene la zizzania?”. Ed egli rispose loro: “Un nemico ha fatto questo!”. E i servi gli dissero: “Vuoi che andiamo a raccoglierla?” PRIMA LETTURA Dal libro della Sapienza Non c’è Dio fuori di te, che abbia cura di tutte le cose, perché tu debba difenderti dall’accusa di giudice ingiusto. La tua forza infatti è il principio della giustizia, e il fatto che sei padrone di tutti, ti rende indulgente con tutti. Sacred Heart Parish Family Deo Gratias 4 303 Paris Street, East Boston, MA 02128 SIXTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME JULY 20, 2014 COMMUNIONE “No, rispose, perché non succeda che, raccogliendo la zizzania, con essa sradichiate anche il grano. Lasciate che l’una e l’altro crescano insieme fino alla mietitura e al momento della mietitura dirò ai mietitori: Raccogliete prima la zizzania e legatela in fasci per bruciarla; il grano invece ri! ponètelo nel mio granaio”». Verbum Domini Noi crediamo in te, O Signor Noi speriamo in te, O Signor Noi amiamo te, O Signor Tu ci ascolti, O Signor Noi cerchiamo te, O Signor Noi preghiamo te, O Signor Noi cantiamo a te, O Signor Tu ci ascolti, O Signor Laus Tibi, Christe CREDO Credo in un solo Dio, Padre onnipotente, creatore del cielo e della terra, di tutte le cose visibili e invisibili. Credo in un solo Signore, Gesù Cristo, unigenito Figlio di Dio, nato dal Padre prima di tutti i secoli. Dio da Dio, Luce da Luce, Dio vero da Dio vero; generato, non creato; della stessa sostanza del Padre; per mezzo di lui tutte le cose sono state create. Per noi uomini e per la nostra salvezza discese dal cielo; e per opera dello Spirito Santo si é incarnato nel seno della Vergine Maria e si é fatto uomo. Fu crocifisso per noi sotto Ponzio Pilato, morì e fu sepolto. Il terzo giorno é risuscitato, secondo le Scritture; é salito al cielo, siede alla destra del Padre. E di nuovo verrà, nella gloria, per giudicare i vivi e i morti, e il suo regno non avrà fine. Credo nello Spirito Santo, che é Signore e dà la vita, e procede dal Padre e dal Figlio e con il Padre e il Figlio é adorato e glorificato e ha parlato per mezzo dei profeti. Credo la Chiesa, una, santa, cattolica e apostolica. Professo un solo battesimo per il perdono dei peccati. Aspetto la risurrezione dei morti e la vita del mondo che verrà. Amen Sei con noi Signor, sei con noi Nella gioia tu sei con noi Nel dolore tu sei con noi Tu per sempre sei con noi. C’è chi prega, Signor, vieni a noi C’è chi soffre, Signor, vieni a noi C’è chi spera, Signor, vieni a noi O Signore, vieni a noi. FINALE Rit: Com’è bello, Signor, stare insieme ed amarci come ami Tu; qui c’è Dio, Alleluia! Il pane che mangiamo, il corpo del Signore, di carità è sorgente e centro d’unità. Rit: Com’è bello, Signor, stare insieme ed amarci come ami Tu; qui c’è Dio, Alleluia! V. L’Angelo del Signore portò l’annunzio a Maria; R. Ed ella concepì per opera dello Spirito Santo. Ave Maria . . . V. Eccomi, sono la serva del Signore. R. Si compia in me la tua parola. Ave Maria . . . V. E il Verbo si fece carne. R. E venne ad abitare in mezzo a noi. OFFERTORIO Rit: Tu sole vivo per me sei Signore, vita e calore diffondi nel cuor. Ave Maria . . . V. Prega per noi, santa Madre di Dio. R. Perché siamo fatti degni delle promesse di Cristo. Tu sul cammino risplendi mio Sole, luce ai miei passi ti voglio, Signor. Rit. Preghiamo: Infondi nel nostro spirito la Tua grazia, o Padre: Tu che all’annuncio dell’Angelo ci hai rivelato l’Incarnazione del Tuo Figlio, per la Sua Passione e la Sua Croce guidaci alla gloria della Risurrezione. Per Cristo nostro Signore. Amen. La tua parola mi svegli al mattino e mi richiami all sera con Te. Rit. Sulla mia casa T’innalzi, mio sole, splendo d’amore, di luce, per Te. Rit.
