third commandment reminds us to
keep Holy the Sabbath - yes, even while
on vacation. Enjoy your summer plans,
but be sure to include your Heavenly
Father in them, too!

MASS MANNERS
By Father William Saunders
In regard to church, each of us should strive for
good “Mass Manners,” and parents especially
should make sure they are teaching their
children good Mass Manners.
First, let us start at how we prepare for Mass.
People should dress appropriately. In our
society, we still consider coat and tie for men
and dresses or suits for women appropriate for
parties or when meeting dignitaries. We
should then dress in the same way to meet our
Lord present in the Holy Eucharist.
Granted, in summer we could be a little more
casual, but we can still be neat, clean, and
properly clothed. In deciding what to wear, we
should be thinking, “I am dressing to meet my
Lord and to participate in the mystery of my
salvation.” www.catholiceducation.org
PARISH ADVISORY BOARD
St. Paul Parish Council will now be known as
the St. Paul Parish Advisory Board.
Parishioners at St. Paul will find in this week’s
bulletin the outline of this new board. Since
for a month we requested volunteers to serve
on the council and only ONE, yes, ONE person
volunteered, it was made clear that what may
have worked in the past does not work now. A
big "Thank You" to those who have served.
Be advised, that changing to this format was
not solely made by Fr. Ray (as some like to
think I'm a control freak); I have asked several
involved people for advice and suggestions,
and this is what we have come up with.
HOLY FATHER’S PRAYER
INTENTIONS FOR JULY
General Intention: That Christ may ease the
physical and spiritual suffering of those who
are sick with AIDS, especially in the poorest
countries.
Missionary Intention: That religious men and
women in mission territories may be witnesses
of the joy of the Gospel and living signs of the
love of Christ.
We offer our prayers, with love and respect,
for our Holy Father, Pope Benedict XVI,
who celebrated the 60th anniversary of his
ordination to the priesthood on June 29 (also
the Solemnity of St. Peter and St. Paul).
STEWARDSHIP
"For my yoke is easy, and my burden light."
(Matthew 11:30)
When we think of being good stewards, we
may think that God asks too much of us by
asking us to generously share our time, talent
and treasure. However, the yoke of stewardship
is not heavy. Good stewards learn that by
turning away from the materialism of the
world, we can experience great joy in spending
more time with God and sharing more of our
gifts with others.

VOCACIÓN UNA LLAMADA
A SERVIR
Señor, ayúdame a creer que tienes un plan
especial para mí.
Por el sacramento del Bautismo todos
compartimos una vocación común de mostrar
al mundo el amor de Cristo por medio de
nuestras palabras y acciones, llevar a Cristo a
quienes no lo conocen y vivir en santidad.
Dios nos lama a cada uno de nosotros a servirle
de manera personal y especial. Esta llamada es
nuestra vocación, que es un estilo de vida
específico donde podemos amar y servir mejor
a Dios y a los demás.
Una vocación es un estado de vida-una forma
de vivir. La Iglesia reconoce cuatro
vocaciones: el sacerdocio, la vida religiosa, el
matrimonio y la vida de soltero. Descubrir
nuestra vocación es un proceso gradual de
oración y meditación guiado por el Espíritu
Santo. Cuando respondemos a Dios para
seguir nuestra vocación particular, somos las
personas que Dios quiere que seamos.
Muchas personas encuentran su felicidad en el
matrimonio ofrece la oportunidad de compartir
el amor de Dios con la pareja, a expresar ese
amor por medio de los hijos, y criándolos con
amor en familia. Los que son llamados a la
vida de soltero tienen la oportunidad de
compartir el mensaje de amor de Dios por
medio del servicio a la comunidad y a la
Iglesia.
Dios llama a algunos hombres a servirle por
medio de la vocación sacerdotal. El sacerdote
recibe el sacramento de las Ordenes Sagradas.
Son ordenados para servir a la comunidad
enseñando, orando y dirigiendo. En los
sacramentos, los sacerdotes actúan en nombre
de Jesucristo para ayudarnos a encontrarlo
personalmente y en la comunidad. Hay dos
tipos de sacerdotes: diocesanos y religiosos.
Los diocesanos son llamados a servir en una
diócesis. Ellos ayudan a los obispos de las
diócesis siendo ministros parroquiales.
También pueden ayudar en las escuelas,
hospitales y prisiones. Prometen vivir una vida
célibe y respetar y obedecer a su obispo.
Los sacerdotes religiosos son llamados a
trabajar en una orden o congregación, como
por ejemplo: franciscanos. Estos sacerdotes
siguen las reglas religiosa o plan de vida
adoptado por su fundador.
¿Qué es un diácono permanente?
Un diácono es un ministro ordenado quien
puede predicar, bautizar, ser testigo de
matrimonio y presidir funerales. Generalmente
son hombres casados ordenados para ayudar a
obispos y sacerdotes y servir a la Iglesia.
SANTA COMUNIÓN DE LOS ENFERMOS
¿Conoces a alguien que no puede asistir a la
misa (por enfermedad o problemas físicos) a
quien le gustaría recibir la Santa Comunión de
uno de nuestros Ministros de la Eucaristía?
Después de consultar con esa persona para ver
si les gustaría que la visite uno de nuestros
Ministro de la Eucaristía, llame a la oficina de
la iglesia (384-3560) con su nombre.
