Continuing on the previous weekend’s message on keeping our kids engaged positively and spiritually focused during this summer vacation, it is worth considering our priorities and sidelined commitments.
It is really admirable that we carefully plan vacation activities very appealing to them that will keep our kids occupied and enlightened as well. Here is the challenge. At baptism we all made the promise to raise our children in faith and according to the teachings of the Catholic Church. This implies that we teach them our faith values and doctrines at appropriate age, we train them to pray every day and accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior, we help them to develop a personal spiritual relationship with Him in a prayerful attitude, we help them to have devotional, prayerful and maternal relationship with Blessed Mother, mother of Jesus and our Mother, and intercessory dependence on all our saints in the church, and develop the habit of participating in the weekly liturgical celebrations, especially the Holy Mass, on a regular basis. In short we agree to raise our children for God not for the world. Question is are we true to this. Many a time it looks like we forget about it or we did not mean it.
If we carefully review our vacation plan, it reveals where our loyalties are. We will do everything that the world is offering for the kids. We make sure our children meet or exceed the performance expectations set by the world and they acquire the age appropriate skills and competencies. It is well appreciated.
Then, how many of us plan for their spiritual wellbeing during this summer? How many days are planned to attend the week day Masses and visiting churches on the travel plan?
Children learn our attitudes and more than our activities. When they see that church is not important, prayer is not at all in the agenda of the whole planning. And faith is far out from the total vacation planning, no matter what you do, they will walk away from church sooner or later.
If we focus on the Lord and His teachings, if it is evident in our planning and living that the goal of our life is to reach heaven at the end of life here on earth, we will resound that message in everything. Our priorities will display that. Children will believe it and they will think about it and consider it as important in life above and over the agenda of the world.
By giving preference and opportunity for spiritual projects and activities let us help our children recognize our priority on our salvation and we should conquer the world to be with the Lord in His glory at the end of life.
God bless you all.

From the Pastor’s Desk / Del Escritorio del Padre
Continuando con el mensaje del fin de semana anterior de mantener a nuestros niños comprometidos de manera positiva y enfocada espiritualmente durante las vacaciones de verano, vale la pena considerar nuestras prioridades y nuestros compromisos.
Es realmente admirable que planeemos cuidadosamente las actividades de vacaciones que sean muy atractivas para ellos y que también mantengan a nuestros niños ocupados e iluminados. Aquí está el desafío. En el bautismo, todos hicimos la promesa de criar a nuestros hijos en la fe y de acuerdo con las enseñanzas de la Iglesia Católica. Esto implica que les enseñamos nuestros valores de fe y doctrinas a la edad apropiada, los ensenamos a orar todos los días y que acepten a Jesús como su Señor y Salvador, los ayudamos a desarrollar una relación espiritual personal con Él en actitud de oración, los ayudamos tener una relación devocional, de oración y materna con la Santísima Madre, madre de Jesús y Madre nuestra, y la dependencia intercesora de todos nuestros santos en la iglesia, y desarrollar el hábito de participar en las celebraciones litúrgicas semanales, especialmente la Santa Misa, de manera regular. En resumen, acordamos criar a nuestros hijos para Dios y no para el mundo. La pregunta es si somos fieles a esto. Muchas veces parece que nos olvidamos o no lo decimos en serio.
Si revisamos cuidadosamente nuestro plan de vacaciones, revela dónde están nuestras lealtades. Haremos todo lo que el mundo ofrece para los niños. Nos aseguramos de que nuestros hijos cumplan o superen las expectativas de rendimiento establecidas por el mundo y adquieren las habilidades y competencias apropiadas para su edad. Es muy apreciado.
Entonces, ¿cuántos de nosotros planeamos para su bienestar espiritual durante este verano? ¿Cuántos días se planean para asistir entre semana a la santa Misas y visitar las iglesias en nues-tras vaciones?
Los niños aprenden nuestras actitudes y más que nuestras actividades. Cuando ven que la iglesia no es importante, la oración no está en absoluto en la agenda de nuestros planes. Y la fe está lejos de la planificación total de las vacaciones, no importa lo que haga, tarde o temprano se irán de la iglesia.
Si nos enfocamos en el Señor y Sus enseñanzas, si es evidente en nuestra planificación y vida que el objetivo de nuestra vida es alcanzar el cielo al final de la vida aquí en la tierra, resonaremos ese mensaje fuerte y claro sin hablar. Nuestras prioridades mostrarán eso. Los niños lo creerán y lo pensarán y lo considerarán importante en la vida por encima y sobre la agenda del mundo.
Al dar preferencia y oportunidad a proyectos y actividades espirituales, ayudemos a nuestros hijos a reconocer nuestra prioridad en nuestra salvación y debemos conquistar el mundo para estar con el Señor en su gloria al final de la vida.
Dios los bendiga a todos.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE En los calendarios antiguos se celebraba la memoria de san Cristóbal el día 10 de este mes. Pero, con la reforma del Concilio Vaticano II este pobre santo se quedó sin trabajo sólo por el hecho de no poder comprobar su existencia.
TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION Last week’s Treasure mentioned the “Nuns of the Battlefield,” religious sisters from several communities who served as nurses in the Civil War. Florence Nightingale had only instituted female nurses a decade before in the Crimean War, so the idea of women tending to wounded soldiers was extraordinary. The medical and sanitary conditions on the battlefields were appalling, and the sisters were nearly all teachers. Few had any medical training beyond what they had learned as youngsters in the family. Anti-Catholic prejudice was so deeply entrenched in America that sisters could not wear their habits in public. These sisters were the first, and people on both the Union and Confederate sides soon began to marvel at their bravery, efficiency, and respect for Protestant soldiers. More than six hundred sisters from twenty-one communities went to war, serving in wretched conditions. They were tough and single-minded, efficient and fearless.
**Sacrament of Baptism—Baptism is a highly sacred event and deserves careful and complete readiness. Please contact the church office (336-629-0221) to register for the Baptism Preparation Class, which is done on a regular basis. Parents must be registered and participating members of our parish community **Sacrament of Marriage - Couples should contact the Pastor (336-629-0221) at least 6 months prior to the wedding date for necessary preparation.
**Ministry of the Sick— Please call the church office (336-629-0221) to inform us of an illness or hospitalization of a family member. Federal Privacy Law prohibits the hospital from giving room numbers, so we must have prior knowledge of a pa-tient’s room number before we visit the hospital. The Sacrament of Anointing is done upon request prior to surgery or a illness.
**Prayers for our Military—please call the office (336-629-0221) to notify us of their Military Status
