13th Sunday in Ordinary Time July 1, 2018

Recently, my wife and I had the opportunity to see the movie: Pope Francis: A Man of His Word. In it, Our

Holy Father reminds us of the same thing we hear in our readings this Sunday and that is 'the preciousness

and sanctity of all life.'

The movie combines the life of St. Francis, the environmental encyclical Laudato si', and the words of

Pope Francis. It blends them together into a very beautiful story and I hope all of you have an opportunity to

see it. One of the things that stood out in my mind were his words: “Everything is related and we human

beings are united as brothers and sisters on a wonderful pilgrimage, woven together by the love God has for

each of his creatures and which also unites us in fond affection with brother sun, sister moon, brother river

and mother earth.”

Unfortunately, all human being since 'the fall of our first parents Adam and Eve and original sin,' and

the distorted notion that humans were created to exploit at will our planet and its resources has landed us in

trouble ecologically and well as spiritually. This has been particularly destructive since the beginning of the

Industrial Revolution where for the first time in our planets history decisions made by human beings has had

devastating consequences where our world is headed into a frontier never before experienced by life. Run

away green house gases, catastrophic water pollution with areas in our oceans so polluted with plastic that it

is choking off all sea life, and rising global and oceanic temperatures resulting in the extinction of numerous

species are just a few examples I can leave in this limited space.

As dire as some of these monumental problems seem, the Good News is we have a loving God

whose heart, mind and whose depth we can never begin to fathom and whose love, mercy and brilliance are

constantly watching over us like a loving parent.

And through that great love, He has encouraged some of our world's greatest minds including

scientist, philosophers, theologians, including our Pope to ponder the pertinent direction we humans must

take, in a cosmological sense, if we want our grandchildren and future generations to be able to have a quality

of life worth living. We need a new story for our journey of recovery and one that incorporates conservation

and preservation as it's themes.

One that the Paulist priest, Father Thomas Berry, who was one of the founding voices on this problem

to write in his book “The Dream of the Earth” : “A sensitivity that comprehends the larger patterns of nature,

its severe demands as well as its delightful aspects,” and one that “is willing to see the human diminish so that

other life forms might flourish.”

What's our part in this? In a review I read of the Popes movie by Rita Ferrone on Pray Tell summed it

up perfectly. She wrote: “Early in the film, there is a scene of the piazza at Assisi, with a voice over by the

director talking about the passage of time. We see people walking across the piazza who turn into ghosts and

disappear, followed by others who take their place and then they too disappear. Laced throughout the film

there are scenes of St. Francis of Assisi, shot in black and white and without sound, in which some of the key

elements in the saint’s life that connect to the life of Pope Francis are acted out, such as his calling to rebuild

God’s house, his vow of poverty and his engagement with creation. The film in this way quite gently raises

the implicit question of what we shall do in our own “hour upon the stage.”

Well this is our hour and one that must always begin with Prayer and an acknowledgment of Faith

like we hear in today's Gospel. The prayerful cry of a father asking for the healing of his child and the faith

exhibited by a poor woman's touch. Both who intrinsically believed the words of our Savior: “The things

which are impossible with men are possible with God.” Words that will empower us to use our gifts and

talents in a way that will contribute to the preservation of our planet, its species, and its awesomeness.

Peace,

Deacon Ted

Next week, men, women, and children will still need

Church to perform corporal and spiritual works of mercy

is not finished. It continues.

to this year’s Appeal, your one hundred thousand sisters

and brothers who are helped extend a warm Thank You.

To those who have not yet given, there is still time. You

can still be a part of this effort.

Whatever you can. For those who cannot.

Envelopes and pledge cards are at the doors of the

church. The collection basket also welcomes Catholic

Charities Appeal gifts.

Masses this weekend to take home some

delectable treats! All proceeds benefit Cape

charities. Happy Independence Day!

FACE SUMMER GALA TO SUPPORT

CATHOLIC

SCHOOLS SCHOLARSHIP FUND The 21st annual FACE Summer Gala to support

Catholic school students in the Fall River Diocese,

including Cape Cod is set for Friday, July 13, 2018 at the

Willowbend Country Club in Mashpee. FACE is the

Foundation to Advance Catholic Education, and proceeds

from the evening provide need-based tuition assistance to

diocesan students.

The Summer Gala will include a delicious multi-

course dinner, a live auction, a mystery raffle and more.

Boston TV and radio personality Billy Costa, host of

NESN’s Dining Playbook, will serve as Master of

Ceremonies. Summer resident of Dennis, Gillian Lewis

Milligan, is serving as chairperson for this year’s event.

In his letter of invitation to the Gala, Bishop Edgar M. da

Cunha, S.D.V., points out that through the generosity of

supporters of FACE, the Fall River Diocese “has been

able to provide scholarships to many children who would

otherwise not be able to attend a Catholic school,” adding

that, “the need continues to grow.”

For ticket information or to find out about sponsorship

opportunities, please contact Jane Robin of the FACE

Cape Cod office at 508-759-3566 or [email protected].

13th Sunday in Ordinary Time July 1, 2018

Parking Mindfulness at OLV For the safety and care of all, please be considerate when parking your car in the main lot both during Masses and when coming to the office for meetings or events. When attending Mass, pull all the way forward to fill each row. Parishioners do leave in a timely fashion so you will not be “trapped” in a spot. So, please, do not park at the end of the row when first arriving.

If you attend morning Mass and are staying for a meeting, gathering, etc. please move your car from the main lot

after Mass, before coming into your meeting. There are funerals planned and the bereaved family and friends attending the Mass will need to pull into the main parking lot. We do not want them to have to weave in/out around parked cars. When attending or hosting an event in the Parish Center, attendees need to park in the back parking

lot. Please do not use the main parking lot of the main

church.

The fire lanes areas that are marked with yellow/orange

stripes are NOT parking areas —not even if you are

quickly dropping off an item to the Parish Office. For

the safety of all and the chance that emergency vehicles need to enter, only park in designated spots and always observe posted rules (ie, no parking in fire lanes). Thank you to all for your cooperation.

Thoughtful Gift Some of the OLV Choir Members have made a new CD of fourteen songs, both vocal and

instrumental music (Be Not Afraid, How Great Thou Art, How Can I Keep From Singing, etc.). The CD’s title is Do Not Fear and it would be an excellent gift for anyone who is going through health problems or any other tough times. You may give a $5 donation and get the CD at the Our Lady of Victory Office.

It's More than Just a Car By donating your car to the Society of St. Vincent de Paul, you are offering hope to those in need. We have partnered with One Car Makes a Difference, a national vehicle donation program with the facilities and services to make the process simple and convenient to you. Offer your vehicle donation to the Society of St. Vincent de Paul to help a person, a family, or a community. The sale of each vehicle provides a significant benefit for the Society of St. Vincent de Paul . Although the process is simple and quick, the benefits last a long time and you could earn a tax deduction too. Two easy ways to donate your vehicle for auction: 800-322-8284 or svdpusacars.com

Cancer Support Group The next Healing Mass for the Cancer Support Group will be held on Monday evening, July 2 at 6pm in the Parish Center of Our Lady of Victory Church.

All persons dealing with Cancer or any serious illness are welcome to attend. Anointing of the Sick will be offered at this service to those who wish to receive this sacrament. Family members and friends are always welcome. Come join us in prayer for anyone you are caring for or concerned about. Please join us following the Mass for sharing friendship at our Ice Cream Social. The Cancer Support Group is open to new members, friends and families to join us anytime. FMI please contact Geri Medeiros at 508-362-6909.

Please Pray For A Priest Each Day

Eternal Father, we lift up to you these

and all the priests of the world. Sanctify them.

Heal and guide them.

Mold them into the likeness and holiness of your Son, Jesus, the Eternal High Priest. May their lives be

pleasing to you. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen

Faith in Action Opportunity

We are all called to put our faith in action by serving our brothers and sisters in need. One way we do that here at Our Lady of Victory and Our Lady of the Assumption is through our Taste and See fundraiser. This year Taste and See will be held on Friday, September 21 at the Oyster Harbors Club. We raise funds for local organizations that provide services to those right here on the Cape that are otherwise without the basic necessities that we can often take for granted. These organizations help to provide the dignity of knowing when and where the next safe place to sleep and warm meal will come from. You can help to be a part of this event by joining us for a planning meeting on Monday, July 9 at 10am in room M1. We welcome new committee members as well as those with a few hours here and there that can help us with our mission. If you are unable to make the meeting but are interested in helping, please be in touch with Kelley Spodris at 508.775.5744x113 or [email protected]

TAKE FIVE FOR FAITH! Invest just five minutes a day, and your faith will

deepen and grow—a day at a time.

Sunday, July 1, 2018 Don’t be afraid to ask

Need is all around: a sick child here, a chronically

ailing elder there. Meanwhile, multitudes languish with

inadequate education, or possibly a simple lack of

inspiration. We all wait more desperately than we

imagine for healing to come, for a word to rouse our

hearts. Hope seems unreasonable, until Jesus passes by.

Those who seek his help—even seizing his garments to

get it—are the ones who go away satisfied. Will we be

among those who reach for what we truly need? Or

will we allow the one who can restore us to pass by?

“If I but touch his clothes, I shall be cured.”

Keep the light on

Jesus was not the first person, and certainly not the last,

to experience homelessness. The problem is persistent

and worldwide—an estimated 100 million people lack

stable housing. The reasons are many and complex,

from chronic unemployment to substance abuse to

mental illness to natural disaster. But while none of us

may be able to solve homelessness alone, each of us

can respond to it with compassion. The website .org

offers some ideas and opportunities. Find a way to help

someone—you are likely to meet Jesus along the way!

“The Son of Man has nowhere to rest his head.”

FEAST OF THOMAS,

APOSTLE

May we see your

wounds?

Saint Thomas is famous

for his skepticism

toward initial reports of

Jesus’ Resurrection.

Truth be told, you might wonder if you’d believe in

such fabulous goings-on if they were reported to you

today. Good news often seems feeble compared with

the magnitude of the bad news that comes daily.

Thomas is the patron saint when the reasons for hope

appear frail. Early traditions say he died as a martyr in

India, pierced by a sword. The one whose faith was

bolstered by the wounds of Jesus proved his faith with

his own torn body. What has faith cost you, and do you

have the scars to prove it?

“Unless I see the mark of the nails in his hands . . . I

will not believe.”

MASS FOR INDEPENDENCE DAY

Unchain our hearts

Demonizing enemies, including religious and political

ones, is one of the unsavory ways in which religious

language can be abused. One’s opponent becomes not

merely wrong but evil incarnate. As we celebrate the

nation we love—and that we wish were always right,

pure, and honorable above all others—we must

acknowledge our government’s sometime misuse of our

wealth and power. Pray that citizen and government

alike may call upon the Lord to free us from whatever

possesses us that is not of God.

“ ‘If you drive us out, send us into the herd of swine.’

And he said to them, ‘Go then!’ ”

MEMORIAL OF ELIZABETH OF PORTUGAL

From pain to gain

“What a life of bitterness I am leading,” said Saint

Elizabeth of Portugal (1271-1336). “On whom but God

can I depend?” These anguished words came from a

woman who was married to the king of Portugal at 12,

endured his philandering, watched their son lead an

armed revolt against his own father, and was banished

for a time by her husband. How did she deal with all

these problems? By turning to prayer and works of

mercy, including founding a hospital, a house for former

prostitutes, an orphanage, and a pilgrim hostel.

Elizabeth’s example counsels us not to endure abusive

situations but to turn our pain into healing, both for

others and ourselves.

“Rise, pick up your stretcher, and go home.”

Friday, Jul 06, 2018

MEMORIAL OF MARIA GORETTI, VIRGIN,

MARTYR

The power of forgiveness

The story of Maria Goretti, the young virgin and martyr

whose feast we celebrate today, is one that generations

have read with a mixture of fascination and horror.

Maria was only 11 years old when she was murdered by

a would-be rapist. That’s the horrific part of her story.

The fascinating part is Maria’s deathbed forgiveness of

her attacker and his subsequent conversion. It might

seem hard, even impossible at times, but the important

thing to remember about forgiveness is that it’s good for

us. We benefit far more than the person we have

forgiven. So, do something nice for yourself today:

Forgive someone.

“I have come to call not the righteous but sinners.”

Saturday, Jul 07, 2018

MEMORIAL OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN

MARY

Glorify the mystery

Glory is a funny word. We all use it; many

of us want it. But what is it, really? How

much does it cost, and what good does it do to have it?

The Hebrew word for glory means “heaviness.” It refers

to the importance of a thing: The heavier it is, the more

significant or valuable it is, like a gold bar at Fort Knox.

God’s glory denotes God’s overall sovereignty in the

world. Could anything be heavier than the authority of a

God who can create a world—or destroy one!—at will?

Yet God chooses to take that weighty power and use it

to transform death into life for the sake of those afflicted

by mortality. Pray the Glorious Mysteries of the

Rosary today and praise the God whose glory brings

peace to the world.

Gospel Meditation Today's Gospel offers

a rare framework -- a

story in a story. Most

of the healing miracles

are standalone

encounters. One person

approaches Jesus,

demonstrates faith, and is healed. The evangelist tells the

next story. This Gospel, however, is different. Jesus is on

his way to heal one person, a young girl of twelve, and is

interrupted on his journey by "a woman afflicted with

hemorrhages." She bravely approaches Jesus in a crowd,

despite being ritually unclean from her bleeding, and

stretches out to touch his cloak. She is healed! Jesus

meets her eye, confirms her faith, and continues on to

resurrect the young girl.

Reading this passage, it might be easier to identify with

one story -- the long-suffering woman or the young,

innocent girl -- and to move past the other. But here they

sit side by side. The girl is twelve. The woman has been

suffering for twelve years. For the Gospel writers,

number parallels have deep symbolic meaning.

Between the woman and the young girl, we are not one or

the other. We are both. None of us had a perfect

childhood, perfect families, or a perfect peer group. As

we endure pain, disappointment, or unmet expectations, it

can feel like a part of our childhood hopes have died. Our

coping mechanisms, social adaptations, and hidden

secrets can make us the "walking wounded" in some

respects. Jesus wants to do more than simply staunch the

bleeding. His healing hand makes dead things come alive.

He awakens the dreams that are asleep. This process

requires prayer, conversations with trusted community

and spiritual mentors, and critical looks at difficult areas

of our life. However, we can believe the words of our

Lord. If we approach Jesus in faith, believing that he

wants to heal and save, we, too, will hear his calming

words spoken over the hurts of our life. "I say to you,

arise!" "Go in peace."

The Green Team Compost is organic material that can be added to

soil to help plants grow. Food scraps and yard

waste currently make up 20 to 30 percent of what

we throw away and should be composted instead.

Making compost keeps these materials out of landfills where

they take up space and release methane, a potent greenhouse

gas. A good resource is the USDA Natural Resources

Conservation Service Fact Sheet on Composting.

Blessing for Independence Day

There is a saying, "To those whom much is given, much is expected." That saying is from “Uncommon Wisdom of John F. Kennedy: A Portrait in His Own Words.” That saying should sum up our thoughts as we celebrate the founding of our country. As we look at our history, we may easily see that much has been given to this country, and many have sacrificed to make sure we have kept those gifts. However, our faith informs us that a gift reaches its ultimate good only when it is given away freely.

Let us pray for this great country of the United States of America:

God our Father, from whom all good gifts come, we are thankful for rest and food.

Grant that, in all we do or say, we keep your goodness always in our thankful hearts.

We entreat you to bless all those who

work to keep us safe, and ask your blessings on all those who work

to share our blessings with others around the world. We ask all this in the name of our

brother and Savior, Jesus. Amen.
