THE BREAD OF LIFE

Today’s Gospel has the crowd asking Jesus three questions.

First, “When did you get here,” to which Jesus responds by

rebuking them for their failure to grasp his miracle as a “sign,” an

occasion to put faith in him. Their second question about

accomplishing the “works of God” has Jesus respond that faith is

the “work” that God wishes. Many scholars believe this is John’s

answer to the faith-works dichotomy emerging in the early

Christian community. Faith is the work of God in the believer, John

would have us understand. The third question asked by the crowd is

a request for a “sign” that would allow them to put faith in Jesus, as

the manna in the desert allowed the Israelites to put faith in the

Lord God. Jesus answers by revealing himself as the “bread of life”

that “comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.” Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

Eighteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time

Weekend of August 4/5 In today’s Gospel we hear Jesus proclaiming that he is “the bread

of life.” He then offers an invitation to come to him. For us, the

invitation is to live the Eucharistic life in Christ. What does it

mean for our parish family to live together in the Eucharist? What

does it mean for us to share the Eucharist together, to participate in

the “bread of life” together? Does it mean we love each other,

support our community of faith, work together? Do we carry each

other’s burdens? Celebrate our joys? What are the practical

implications of being good stewards of our Eucharistic life

together?

This week we would like help with

the following items:

Peanut Butter, Canned Beans

& Ramen Noodles

Thank you for your generosity.

RELIGIOUS EDUCATION

The Faith Formation Program is in need of

volunteers for the upcoming year. If you feel called to

share your faith with the young people of the parish,

please consider joining the program. Please be advised

that the Diocese of Monterey requires that all volunteers

be fingerprinted before being allowed to volunteer. If

you are interested, please contact Stacy Huck, 481-2990,

for more information.

FAITH FORMATION REGISTRATION

Registration for Faith Formation Classes, grades 1 through

6, will be held outside the vestibule of the church.

Registration will take place after all English Masses

beginning on the weekend of August 11-12, and

continuing through the weekend of September 1-2. Please

bring a copy of your child’s Baptismal Certificate if you

are registering your child for the first Communion Class,

or if your child is new to the program. Religious Education

classes are held at St. Patrick’s School every

Tuesday afternoon from 4:00 - 5:15. This year

classes are set to begin on Tuesday, September 4.

St. Patrick Catholic Preschool /Jr. High School

Registration is ongoing for the 2012-2013

The 6:00 pm Mass will be cancelled on Sunday,

day & then come join the fun. The Fiesta begins right after the 12:15 pm Mass and continues until 8:00 pm. There will be a Raffle, Music, Prizes, Mexican Food & much more…..

Sanctuary Remodel A few months ago we had a town-hall meeting to

discuss possibly relocating the Rising Christ statue

from the altar area to the vestibule and placing a

crucifix in its place. It became evident that the

participants were evenly split: half of those present

wanted to keep the statue in its present

location,

the other half wanted it moved. After prayerful

consideration it was determined that more

discernment is needed.

Thank you for your patience. Cristina Curzi

THE ASSUMPTIN OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY

Early in the celebration of this Marian

solemnity, when we hear the reading from the Book of Revelation, we can’t help but feel awe for the majesty of the universe. Our

Gospel lesson resonates with the words of freedom proclaimed in Mary’s Magnificat.

This Holy Day of obligation is a celebration of victory for her, for the saints, for the Church , for us all. Mary led a simple

but graced life, gave birth while homeless, lived part of her life as a refugee, and

watched her only Son die. How can she not be a symbol of faith, courage, grace, compassion, strength, and blessing for us all?

HOLY DAY— MASS TIMES

8/14 TUES. - 5:30PM (Vigil Mass in the church) 8/15 WED. (All masses in the church) English—7:00am, 9:00am, 5:30pm Spanish— 7:00pm 8/15 WED. St. Francis in Oceano — 8:00am

Usted puede llamar a la oficina parroquial al 489-2680 para dar el nombre de la persona que necesite oración.

EL PAN DE VIDA

El Evangelio de hoy presenta a la gente haciéndole tres preguntas a Jesús. Primero: “¿cuándo llegaste acá?”, a la

que Jesús responde con una reprimenda por su incapacidad para entender el milagro como una “señal”, una ocasión para

poner la fe en él. La segunda pregunta tenía que ver con la realización de las “obras de Dios” a la que Jesús responde que

la fe es la “obra” que Dios desea. Muchos eruditos creen que esta es la respuesta de Juan a la dicotomía fe-obras que

estaba surgiendo en la primera comunidad cristiana. La fe es la obra de Dios en el creyente, Juan nos quiere hacer

entender. La tercera pregunta que hace la multitud es una “señal” que les permita poner su fe en Jesús, como el maná en el

desierto permitió a los israelitas poner su fe en el Señor Dios. Jesús responde con la revelación de que él es el “pan de

vida” que “baja del cielo y da la vida al mundo”. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

Esta semana necesitamos lo siguiente en la

alacena:

Sopitas Ramen y Espagueti. Gracias

También agradecemos que nos donen frutas y verduras de sus casas, pueden dejarlas en la oficina.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE Y el día 6 de agosto de 1726, Fray Antonio Margil

de Jesús, el fundador de las misiones en Texas dijo “Ya es

hora de ir a ver a Dios” y tomó su último paso. Desde su

llegada a América en 1683 el indomable Hermano Menor

trazó caminos para llevar el Evangelio de Jesucristo a los

nativos.

Él emprendía sus caminos al estilo de los primeros

misioneros seráficos de dos en dos, a pie, descalzo,

alimentado sólo por virtud de la generosidad de los fieles,

pasando las noches donde pudiera, armado sólo de un

crucifijo, un bastón y su libro de oraciones y cantando

mientras caminaba. De esta manera propagó la fe

caminando hacia el norte llegando a la Bahía del Espíritu

Santo en el Misisipí; y hacia el sur, llegando al istmo de

Panamá.

A pesar del éxito de sus esfuerzos misioneros,

Margil fue un hombre humilde que nunca quiso

enorgullecerse de sus victorias. Solía firmar sus cartas “la

misma nada” recordando así que Dios es todo y uno no es

nada, porque la misión, en fin, es de Dios, uno es sólo un

instrumento. —Fray Gilberto Cavazos‑Glz, OFM, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

Actividades para la casa 18º domingo de tiempo ordinario - Semana del 5 de agosto de 2012 Hagan esta actividad como una forma de reflexión sobre las lecturas del domingo:

Ustedes son las manos y los pies de Jesús en la Tierra.

Hay mucha gente hambrienta que espera por ayuda. En familia ayuden en un comedor público. Si es posible, en familia, lleven comida a un inválido. Comenten cómo se siente el tener hambre. Hablen de cómo debe sentirse el ser liberado de esa hambre. Hablen de su dieta diaria espiritual. ¿Comen comida chatarra, comida de bebés, comida congelada? ¿Cómo han cambiado para convertirse en una persona espiritual que come alimentos sanos y que lo refleja como resultado? Somos lo que comemos.

Does a higher GDP increase happiness? The Gallup World Poll shows that higher income, better

health, and trust in one's community contribute to high life

satisfaction while poverty, ill health, and deep divisions in the

community all contribute to low life satisfaction. But a higher

income does not guarantee more happiness; other things

matter more: community trust, mental and physical health,

and good governance. Policies that focus on increasing

economic growth may decrease happiness by contributing to

new crises of obesity, smoking, diabetes, depression, and

other ills of modern life. Better goals include high

employment and high-quality work, support of family life,

and a decent education for all. Perhaps the question for both

individuals and governments is, what will we do with all the

wealth we create? [Source: July-Aug. NewsNotes at http://
