Twentieth Sunday in Ordinary Time August 20, 2017
Observe what is right, do what is just; for my salvation is about to come,
my justice, about to be revealed. — Isaiah 56:1
From the Desk of Fr. Carlos Macias
Desde el escritorio de Fr. Carlos Macias
Vigésimo Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario 20 de agosto de 2017
Velen por los derechos de los demás, practiquen la justicia,
porque mi salvación está a punto de llegar y mi justicia a punto de manifestarse.— Isaías 56:1
Muy estimados hermanas y hermanos en el Señor:
Les envío un saludo. En las semanas anteriores he insistido mucho en un tipo de oración que considero cómo una de las más poderosas en el mundo cristiano. He sido testigo de cómo está simple oración ha transformado profundamente muchas vidas. Hablo de la oración de agradecimiento. ¿Cuántas veces agradezco a Dios cosas específicas durante los meses, las semanas o los días? No es raro encontrarnos que muchas veces los pensamientos que más predominan en la mente podrían ser los preocupaciones, dolores, negatividad, etc. Me llama la atención ver cómo esos tipos de pensamientos pueden ocupar gran parte de nuestro tiempo y de nuestra energía. Recientemente escuché una plática sobre este tema en donde se decía que podríamos gastar el 90% de nuestro tiempo enfocados en el 10% de las cosas que no funcionan en nuestra vida. Lo interesante de esto es que sólo ver lo negativo y no hacer nada al respecto sólo envenena más nuestra alma y nos lleva a una auténtica solución. El agradecimiento, especialmente el agradecimiento a Dios, nos permite ver lo qué el Señor ha hecho y hace en nuestra vida. Nos permite ver las cosas que funcionan, que muchas veces son la mayoría y lo más importante nos ayuda a ver NUEVAS OPORTUNIDADES. Cuando hablamos de que Dios es misericordioso para mí la Misericordia Divina significa que Dios es el Dios de las nuevas oportunidades. Oportunidades que sólo se dan si se ve y se agradece lo mucho que ÉL ha hecho por nosotros.
La próxima semana hablaré de cómo hacer la oración de agradecimiento.
Dios bendiga su semana.
Fr. Carlos Macías. LC
Dearest sisters and brothers in the Lord,
Greetings to you. In the previous weeks I have insisted a lot on a type of prayer that I consider as one of the most powerful in the Christian world. I have witnessed on how this simple prayer has profoundly transformed many lives. I speak of the prayer of gratitude. How often do I thank God for specific things during the months, weeks, or days? It is not uncommon to find that many times in the mind the thoughts that predominate could be worries, pains, negativity, etc. It strikes me to see how these types of thoughts can occupy much of our time and energy. I recently heard a talk on this topic where it was said that we could spend 90% of our time focused on 10% of things that do not work in our life. The interesting thing about this is that only seeing the negative and doing nothing about it only poisons our soul more and leads us to a justified solution. Gratitude, especially gratitude to God, allows us to see what the Lord has done and does in our lives. It allows us to see the things that work, which are often the majority and most importantly helps us to see NEW OPPORTUNITIES. When we speak of God being merciful to me, the Divine Mercy means that God is the God of new opportunities. Opportunities that are only given if we see and thank Him for how much He has done for us. Next week I'll talk about how to do the prayer of gratitude.
God bless your week.

Sacred Heart School—Founded by Monsignor Biedermann and The Sisters of Notre Dame
Sacred Heart School opened in September of 1980 under the guidance of our founding pastor, Monsignor Arnold Biedermann, with about 40 students in kindergarten and first grade classes. In January of 1981, the Sisters of Notre Dame assumed administration of the school and continued that leadership until the late 1990s. Throughout that period, the principal was a religious minister, while all staff members were lay ministers. In 1992 Monsignor Arnold Biedermann retired and Father Daniel O’Sullivan began his pastorship. During this time, Sister Mary Francelia SND and Sister Jean Marie SND instilled a reliance on the goodness and providence of God, which is the charism of the Sisters of Notre Dame. Currently, all staff is laity, while a Sister of Notre Dame, Sister Margaret Mary, is the Director of Religious Education for the parish. The charism initiated by the founder of the Sisters of Notre Dame, St. Julie Billiart, endures at Sacred Heart School as we continue to trust in divine providence. During daily prayer, at meetings, and assemblies we say, “Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, we place our trust in you.”

Thanks to The Italian Catholic Federation Ministry! Sacred Heart School is grateful for the donation The Italian Catholic Federation made for school supplies as we start the

We appreciate the interest, time & talent, and prayers The Italian Catholic Federation ministry so graciously shares.
Dio ti benedica! Grazie!

The Archdiocese of Los Angeles mandates all staff, whether paid or volunteer, and all volunteers who work in any capacity
with or around children, the elderly, or people with special needs are required to complete the initial three-hour VIRTUS® Protecting God's Children for Adults program. This education component helps prevent child sexual abuse by first making every adult employee and volunteer aware of the issues surrounding child sexual abuse. This includes awareness of the many ways sexual abuse harms its victims, their families, the parish, and the community. The awareness session also helps adults learn to recognize the warning signs of abuse and shows them the appropriate way to respond to suspicious behavior. Finally, the awareness session empowers each person with five steps to help prevent child sexual abuse. UPCOMING DATES: • Sacred Heart Catholic Church
