SAINT BONAVENTURE CATHOLIC PARISH At that time the LORD appointed seventy-two others whom he sent ahead of him in pairs. Luke 10:1 Fourteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time July 7, 2013 Fourteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time PASTOR’S CORNER Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, In today’s Gospel (Luke 10:1-20) Jesus sends the seventy-two on mission. He sends them to towns and places he intended to visit. They were going to prepare the way of the Lord. They comprise thirty-six pairs of disciples. The disciples would travel two by two. What I like about this is that people would see how they treated each other. Did they work well together? Did they help each other out? How they got along with each other would speak more eloquently than any of their preaching. It would show people that they put into practice the love of Christ. What instructions did Jesus give the seventy-two? The disciples were sent out like “lambs among wolves.” The harvest was abundant, the laborers were few. There would be sacrifices and joys. Their greeting when entering a house would be, “Peace to this household.” They would stay in one place eating and drinking what was offered them. They would cure their sick and announce, “The kingdom of God is at hand for you.” When the disciples returned to Jesus from preaching to the towns and villages they announced to Jesus, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us because of your name.” But Jesus emphasized what was really important, “Do not rejoice because the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice because your names are written in heaven.” (Luke 10:20) You don’t have to go to faraway lands to be a missionary. The mission for many of you is to show compassion and love to your family, to be honest and hardworking at your job, to care for those around you. Your mission begins by listening to Jesus through personal prayer, family prayer, and community prayer especially Sunday Mass. “Sing praise to the glory of God’s name; proclaim his glorious praise.” (Responsorial Psalm 66) And now let me share a reminder. If you haven’t already made your pledge to the Diocesan Capital Campaign, please do so. Remember, if you are able to make a substantial gift but need more time to pay it off, you can spread your payments over four years. Envelopes are in the pews and in the parish office. Masses at the Christ Cathedral property begin in mid-July. They will be celebrated in the Arboretum. This is the original church on the former Crystal Cathedral property. Your donations to the Capital Campaign are already bearing fruit. The Arboretum was extensively renovated thanks to your donations. And this is only the beginning. For more information go to www.oc-foundation.org or www. forchristforever.org. I thank all those who have already pledged. I encourage everyone to give what you can to this Campaign. We are all part of the Diocese of Orange and so it is important to support the work of our Bishop and our Diocese. The Christ Cathedral Campus will be there for all us. We each need to do our part to help further the Good News of Jesus Christ at the parish level and on the diocesan level and beyond. “The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers and sisters.” (St. Paul to Galatians 6:18) Page two me W e l c oOUR NEW PAROCHIAL VICAR FR. DICK KENNEDY Fr. Dick will introduce himself at all Masses this weekend. Come greet him in the parish hall after all Sunday Masses. Fr. Dick served the parishioners of St. Bonaventure as a young parochial vicar almost 40 years ago. He has served the people of the Diocese of Orange well as Diocesan Vocation Director, then as pastor of St. Mary Church in Fullerton, then as pastor of St. Barbara Church in Santa Ana. Now he comes to St. Bonaventure as a senior priest. Welcome Fr. Dick!

In 2012, HOPE assisted 21,200 individuals. As you have heard through the media, low inventories are still being seen at our local Food Banks where HOPE purchases food for distribution. In order to continue assisting those in need, during the month of July baskets normally used to collect holiday food donations will be placed at the doors of the church. As you do your weekly grocery shopping, we are asking that you please purchase non-perishable food items. Some suggestions include tuna, soups, meal-in-a-can, canned fruit, canned vegetables, cereal, rice, and macaroni and cheese. Thank you for your support! God bless you. “Anointing of the Sick can be administered to a member of the faithful who, after having reached the age of reason, begins to be in danger due to sickness or old age.“ (CL #1004) ST.

CATHOLIC SOCIAL TEACHING: Care for God’s Creation From Pope Francis’ June 5 (World Environment Day) address: “When we talk about the environment, about creation, my thoughts turn to the first pages of the Bible, the Book of Genesis, which states that God placed man and woman on earth to cultivate and care for it. And the question comes to my mind: What does cultivating and caring for the earth mean? Are we truly cultivating and caring for creation? Or are we exploiting and neglecting it? The verb ‘to cultivate’ reminds me of the care that the farmer has for his land so that it bears fruit, and it is shared: how much attention, passion and dedication! Cultivating and caring for creation is God’s indication given to each one of us not only at the beginning of history; it is part of His project; it means nurturing the world with responsibility and transforming it into a garden, a habitable place for everyone. Benedict XVI recalled several times that this task entrusted to us by God the Creator requires us to grasp the rhythm and logic of creation. But we are often driven by pride of domination, of possessions, manipulation, of exploitation; we do not ‘care’ for it, we do not respect it, we do not consider it as a free gift that we must care for. We are losing the attitude of wonder, contemplation, listening to creation; thus we are no longer able to read what Benedict XVI calls ‘the rhythm of the love story of God and man.’ Why does this happen? Why do we think and live in a horizontal manner, we have moved away from God, we no longer read His signs.” More to follow … Expectant Mothers Please pray for the good health and safety of all expectant mothers and their babies, especially those in our parish community — Becky Brown, Andrea Smith and Shara Resnikoff.

God is constantly drawing us close to him and prayer is the result of God’s constant invitation to us for a deeper intimacy with Him. There now appears to be a “hunger of the heart” that people feel for a personal relationship with the Lord. Thus, we are called to the contemplative path where our hunger can be satisfied by way of contemplative “resting in God.” God wants to spend time with us so He can remain in our hearts; we grow spiritually with each moment we spend with the Him. To the extent that we allow ourselves to be moved by God’s indwelling Presence in us, we come to experience the Christ-life through contemplation of His Divine Word. Using the ancient practice of Lectio Divina — a slow, contemplative, attentive and prayerful pondering of Sacred Scripture, we are led to “hear God’s Word as it speaks to us personally, here and now, bringing about an encounter with Christ, the living Word of God.” (Pope Benedict XVI) The practice of Lectio Divina has no other goal than spending time with God through the medium of His Word. “We need to treat the Word of God as a person — not as a problem to solve or a code to decipher. The Word of God is a Presence — someone to get close to. When we love someone, our desire to get to know that person better never ends. Relish the richness of God’s Word with the same desire.” (Magnificat, Vol 13, #5, July 2011) This being said, the Contemplative Prayer Ministry is geared towards accompanying the Faithful in experiencing the Christ-life within us. We employ the Lectio Divina method both as a private and as a group exercise. Not everyone can or should live as a hermit. But no Christian can do without an ‘inner hermitage’ where God can be encountered. The hermitage is a place apart, a desert where a person comes to face-to-face with his true self, and in that meeting discovers God. It is a place of silence, of fear and fascination, of anguish and grace. What did Jesus do in solitude? He contemplated. His whole soul was before God. The beatific light bathed his mind; his will burned with charity. Let the desire to be with God goad you as often and intensely as it may. The trail you are following has no end except in God. Be generous. The Master himself will draw near to you. Contemplative Prayer Ministry welcomes men and women who are in need of deepening their relationship with God through His Word. Come and join us to contemplate and pray the Scriptures through the practice of Lectio Divina. We meet every Monday in Duffy West from 7:00 to 8:00 p.m. For more info contact Thess Williams at 928-3385 or by e-mail thessw82@gmail.com.
