A Parish Farewell is planned for Fr. Ken Loftus, S.J., on Sunday, September 14th at the Noon Mass. A reception
will follow.
COMPANIONS
An educational support group for anyone in need of healing and hope
after the death of a loved one .
Eight weekly sessions on Tuesday evenings from 9/23-11/11 in the Parish Office 7:00-8:30 p.m. will begin and end
with meditation, and focus on healing as we share our stories, learn to embrace our grief, cope with holidays, care
for ourselves and create meaningful changed lives in the context of our Christian faith.
A second series is planned for the Spring.
Pre-registration is required.
For more information, contact Maureen Saldarini at mcsaldarini113@gmail.com
BOOK DISCUSSION
We have a suggestion to add to your summer reading list: The Tenth of December by George Saunders. This
book will be discussed in the parish offices on September 21st at 11:15 am. Reviewers note that Saunders’ stories
take on life's big questions and explore the fault lines of our own morality, delving into the questions of what
makes us good and what makes us human. The stories focus on what is redeemable in human beings and fulfill
Chekhov’s dictum to “prepare us for tenderness.” Happy reading, Happy summer.
MUSIC MINISTRY AT ST. IGNATIUS
As we look forward to September and the return of our music ensembles, we invite any interested singers and
instrumentalists to contact us about participation. Music Ministry information is posted on the Church Bulletin
Boards, as well as on the Parish Website under the “Ministry” tab. Those interested can also contact Music
Director, Michael Burgo at 627-552-6108 or burgo @bc.edu.
THE BULLETIN IS PRINTED EVERY TWO WEEKS FOR JULY AND AUGUST.
THE NEXT BULLETIN WILL BE AUGUST 17 .

Siendo una comunidad parroquial jesuita, animada por el espíritu de san Ignacio, les damos a
todos la bienvenida para compartir la alegría del evangelio y para conocer, amar y servir a Dios
Queridos Parroquianos,
El 31 de julio celebramos la fiesta de San Ignacio de Loyola, Santo Patronal de nuestra Parroquia. Les
invito a meditar sobre estas dos oraciones de San Ignacio.
Toma, Señor y recibe toda mi libertad, mi memoria, mi entendimiento y toda mi voluntad; todo mi ser y
mi poseer. Tú me lo diste, a ti Señor, lo torno; todo es tuyo, dispón según tu voluntad. Dame, solamente
tu amor y gracia, que esto me basta. Amén.
Señor, enséñame a ser generoso,!a dar sin calcular,!a devolver bien por mal,!a servir sin esperar
recompensa,!a acercarme al que menos me agrada,!a hacer el bien al que nada puede retribuirme!a amar
siempre gratuitamente,!a trabajar sin preocuparme del reposo.!!Y, al no tener otra cosa que dar!a donarme
en todo y cada vez más!a aquel que necesita de mí!esperando solo de tí!la recompensa.!O mejor: esperando
que Tú mismo!seas mi recompensa.
Amén
Espero que reciban la bendición de nuestro Padre San Ignacio y especialmente la gracia de Amar y Servir
nuestro Señor, Jesucristo.
En el amor de Dios,
Padre Bob
