Today we celebrate the patroness of our beloved parish, Our Lady of Mount Carmel. It's inspiring to know that still today, in the year 2015, we continue to walk spiritually in the footsteps of the early Carmelite hermits of the late 12th century who lived on "Mount Carmel" in the Holy Land. Tuesday,July21st|Weekday As I walk the streets of our neighborhood and hear you speak of your love for our church and for our patroness, I am in awe of the fact that the faith and devotion of these Carmelites of a different age and continent, is still alive and well here in Belmont of the Bronx! This can only be explained by the power of God's grace and the intercession of the mother of Jesus and the mother of us all. 8:30am Anna and Cosimo Lavacca 12:00pm Joseph Lauro 6:30pm Deda Elezovic Like every good mother, Our Lady encourages us and corrects us. She points us to Jesus and says, "Do whatever he tells you.". Wednesday,July22nd|SaintMaryMagdalane As you know, this year we are having a small family gathering after the 12:15pm mass on Hughes Ave, celebrated by our friend and mentor, Archbishop Antonio Ciliberti. Let's have a great time together, as family but let's not forget the reason for our joy. Mary, our mother, loves us, and points us to her soon, the source of all real happiness, the Way, the Truth, and the Life.

Bianchi and Toni Anne Perri Richard Osei and Alexandra Nmashie One way we could make this feast day a spiritual success, would be to ask Jesus if there is any way that he wants us to change, to become more like him. Take a few minutes today, if you will (I promise to do so too), to pray for the grace to "do whatever he tells you." Mary will be there to support us all the way!

Children: 140…...……… / Total….725 July 19, 2015 CHURCH OF OUR LADY OF MOUNT CARMEL 3 REFLECTING ON GOD’S WORD Sunday Gospel: Mark 6: 30-34 RIFLESSIONE SULLA PAROLA DI DIO Vangelo della Domenica: Marco 6: 30-34 Jesus knew that he and his disciples needed occasional Come mostra la prima lettura, e il Vangelo stesso, oggi time alone, so they went “to a deserted place” to rest. Are you over-working, over-volunteering, overextending yourself? Saint Benedict (485–547A.D.), the founder of many monasteries in Italy wrote a set of instructions, called the Rule, to ensure the monks could pray, work, and live in harmony. The Rule is a blend of moderate and reasonable instructions, requiring everyone to participate in an orderly balance of daily activity. This is hard for us to accomplish ourselves, with the demands of the workplace and family. One busy mom uses her bathroom moments to pray; a man who takes many business trips prays as he drives. Parents caring for a disabled son rely on the help of friends for a necessary time-out. An overworked single mother takes a nap every day while her children do their homework. It is essential to refocus and refuel for your God-given calling in life. Living Stewardship Now Look at your life and try to add up how you spend your week. How much time is devoted to God, family, work, and service? Do you rest and relax or just change activities? What are your time-wasters? “ROOTED” Our Youth Group has chosen a name...ROOTED in Christ Jesus! If you are in 9th to 12th grade, come to Fatima Hall on Saturdays from 2pm to 4pm. For more info please contact Jesus Vargas at the parish office. al centro della parola che la liturgia ci porta c’è il fatto che Dio ha concretizzato le sue promesse in Gesù di Nazaret: attraverso il suo Salvatore egli veglia sul suo popolo. Il Vangelo descrive la “piccola” gente di Galilea che si affolla al seguito di Gesù come una comunità di uomini sfiniti di cui nessuno si occupa. Essi hanno sentito che Gesù si preoccupa sinceramente di loro, e che ha il potere di venire loro veramente in aiuto. È ciò che fa, portando l’indispensabile salvezza a tutti quelli che si rivolgono a lui fiduciosi, nella loro disgrazia sia fisica che sociale o spirituale. La Chiesa non cerca oggi di distrarci con delle belle storie che parlano dei tempi passati. Attira la nostra attenzione sul fatto che Gesù Cristo risuscitato continua ad agire come il Salvatore di Dio. Egli può e vuole aiutarci nella nostra disgrazia. Compatisce le nostre preoccupazioni. Nella nostra miseria possiamo rivolgerci a lui. Egli ci consolerà, ci darà la forza, ci esaudirà. È lui che ci fa trovare le vie per uscire dalla disgrazia, che ci mette accanto delle persone che ci aiutino. E soprattutto, Gesù Cristo conosce l’ultima e la peggiore delle nostre miserie: la nostra ricerca di una salvezza duratura e felice, che sia per noi o per tutti quelli che amiamo, dei quali ci preoccupiamo, e che abitano con noi questo mondo.

San Benito (485–547A.D.), el fundador de muchos monasterios en Italia, escribió una serie de instrucciones, conocidas como la Regla benedictina, para garantizar que los monjes pudieran orar, trabajar y vivir en armonía. La Regla es una combinación de instrucciones moderadas y razonables exigiendo la participación de todos en las actividades diarias de una manera ordenada y equilibrada. Esto es difícil de lograr para ninguno de nosotros por sí mismo debido a las exigencias del trabajo y la familia. Hay una mamá que ora cuando está en el baño; un hombre que reza mientras maneja en sus muchos viajes de negocios. Los padres que tienen un hijo discapacitado dependen de la ayuda que sus amistades puedan brindarle para tener un respiro necesario. Una madre soltera con exceso de trabajo toma una siesta todos los días mientras sus hijos hacen la tarea escolar. Reenfocarte y reabastecer tus energías son cosas esenciales para responder al llamado de Dios en tu vida. Viviendo la Palabra de Dios Reflexiona sobre tu vida y trata de hacer un recuento de cómo pasaste la semana. ¿Cuánto tiempo dedicaste a Dios, la familia, el trabajo y los servicios? GRUPO JUVENIL “ROOTED” Invitamos a todos los Jóvenes de 9 a 12 grado a participar del Grupo Juvenil todos los Sábado de 2:00pm a 4:00pm en el Salón de Fatima. ¡Te esperamos!
