TWELFTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
June 21, 2020
Live Courageously Fear and trepidation are natural emotions for all of us. Some have a fear of public speaking. All of us at some level may even experience a fear of death. Fear of the unknown is another big one. For me, it’s fear of heights. Kind of ironic for someone who is 6’8”! In this weekend’s gospel from Saint Matthew, we find Jesus exhorting the twelve: “Fear no one.” Jesus was presenting a new way of thinking to the Jews and His followers and some of it was contradictory to traditional ways of thinking. He must have sensed that His disciples might be fearful of sharing these teachings. Yet, He goes on to tell them to proclaim to the housetops, to not whisper in secret, but to speak openly. This had to make some of them a bit fearful and uncomfortable. But isn’t that what Satan wants? Out of fear we keep quiet. We keep silent. The opposite of fear is courage. Courage enables us to overcome our fears. It compels us to do that which we normally would feel uncomfortable doing. We must have the courage to proclaim the truth, to proclaim justice, to spread joy, to foster peace. Jesus is truth and peace; therefore, we are called to proclaim Him to all who might hear. Courage doesn’t always just come; it sometimes has to grow and that comes with understanding. The disciples and martyrs didn’t just give their lives, but did so willingly, trusting in God and knowing of the eternal reward that was to come. They faced their persecutors with courage and conviction. Do we have that same courage in our daily walk? Our vision in the Diocese of St Petersburg is to Courageously Live the Gospel. It is our mission as Catholics, and it is our call from Jesus. Fear no one, but instead live courageously! -Bishop Gregory Parkes
I pray these lines find all doing well. Although we have a way to go yet before we get back to normal, (if totally normal will ever be an option) it seems like things are returning. I want to take this opportunity to wish all the fathers a Happy Father’s Day. This past weekend I was finally able to return to celebrate Mass. I did not realize just how much I missed celebrating with people instead of before a camera. Although the numbers were down in the church due to new regs it really felt great. This weekend we hear Jesus begin the Gospel with very bold and true words “Fear no one!” He then goes on to say how we are all pretty much alike. All of us are sinners, Jesus and the blessed Mother alone are the only humans who have never sinned – and ironically enough they do not judge. The rest of us at times feel that we have the ability to judge when the reality is – we do not. I have heard often in confession that people are angry because, people they know have gotten away with things and nobody knows. This Gospel makes that very clear, everything we have ever done is going to be made known. Those people spoken about in confession get away with nothing – in the end. The saddest part of this whole paragraph is that we should never be looking at nor speaking about the faults of others. Jesus, in another part of scripture, is very clear, “judge and you will be judged – do not judge and you will not be judged.” We should be so concerned about what we have done (even if it was way in our past) that we never have time to nor commit the sin to judge anyone else. Think about it, if you are close to God and you have really cleaned up your life from your past – who do you think did that for you? – God Did!!! He showed you what you were doing, let you know there was another way and you took it. If other people you know are leading a terrible, unholy life then they have not received the gift you have already been given – yet! When we judge others and discuss the faults and lives of others, we are not representing God, we are not His mouthpiece. We are cherished by God, all the hairs on our head have been counted – my scalp is making it easier and easier for God to count, on a daily basis, I wonder what He does with all the free time. LOL You are the only version of you on the planet. You alone have the ability to be the best you can be, we do this by nurturing our relationship with God, by loving only – not judging. We want to acknowledge Jesus so He will acknowledge us. God Bless You -Love, Fr. Mike 2

Our Public Masses Have Resumed With Revised Mass Schedule and Safety Protocols In Effect (We are requesting our parishioners to please wear a mask during Mass).
Here are some details of some changes to expect. The dispensation from the obligation to attend Sunday Mass is still in effect and will be until further notice. Everyone must use main entrance and follow the instructions of the ushers. Please be patient. The side doors are ONLY emergency exits. Incarnation is limited to a maximum seating of 128 due to social distancing. They are marked by green crosses. Once we reach 128 people there will be no more permitted to enter. People who live in the same home may sit together. Ushers will greet each person and show them to their seat. In order to properly disinfect after each Mass, the Sunday schedule will be:
Saturday 4:00 pm Sunday 7am, 9am, 11am, 1pm, & Spanish at 3pm Please limit private prayer after mass to no longer than 5 minutes so our volunteers can properly disinfect the church. The chapel and cry room will remain closed. There will be a collection basket at the entrance. No basket will be passed around and there will be no basket bearers. Hand sanitizer dispensers are in the Narthex as you enter and leave. No holding hands at Our Father and no contact peace. Ushers will direct section by section in a single line at three communion spots. Communion is ONLY distributed on the hand, not the tongue, for the time being at Incarnation. Please respect other’s space in communion line with proper distance.
Nuestra Misas Publicas Se Reanuden Con Horario de Misas Revisado y Protocolos de Seguridad En Efecto
Rogamos a nuestros apreciados feligreses, que lleven puesta una "mascara" durante la Misa. A continuación, detalles de algunos cambios a implementar: Continúa la dispensa de no asistir a la Misa de Domingo, hasta próximo aviso. Todos debemos usar la puerta principal de la iglesia, así como seguir las instrucciones de los acomodadores (ujieres). Por favor ejercitemos la paciencia. Las puertas laterales de la iglesia se usarían SOLO en emergencia. En atención a la situación actual y la necesidad de usar “distanciamiento”, nuestra iglesia acepta un cupo máximo de 128 personas. Siga la guía de las marcas con cinta verde en los bancos. Por lo antes dicho, sobre la capacidad. Una vez llenado el cupo de 128 y por la protección de todos, no podran entrar otras personas. Los ujieres (acomodadores) cortésmente le indicarán los espacios disponibles. Las personas que viven en una misma casa pueden sentarse juntos en el mismo banco. En atención al hecho de que debemos desinfectar los bancos después de cada misa, el horario de celebración de misas es como sigue:
Sábado: 4:00 p.m. | Domingo: 7am, 9am, 11am, 1pm y 3:00 p.m. en Español La capilla y el cuarto para familias con niños pequeños permanecerán cerrados. Canasta de colecta: las encontraremos a la entrada. No pasaremos la canasta dentro de la misa y por el momento las especies para la consagración serán colocados en la mesa cerca del altar en lugar de llevarlos en procesión. Tendrá la oportunidad de higienizar sus manos a la entrada/salida del templo. No unirnos de manos durante el Padre Nuestro; no contacto en el saludo de la Paz. Los Ujieres dirigen a los comulgantes a formar una sola fila para la comunión, la cual se hará por sección, habrán tres estaciones para recibir la Comunión. Por el momento, La Comunión será distribuida solo en la mano, no sobre la lengua. Por favor mantenga la distancia entre personas en la fila para recibir la Comunión. 5

Vive Valientemente El temor y la ansiedad son emociones naturales en todos nosotros. Algunas personas tienen temor de hablar en público. Todos nosotros en algún momento hasta podemos experimentar temor a la muerte al igual que temor a lo desconocido. Para mí, es el temor a las alturas. ¡Qué ironía para una persona que mide 6’ 8”! En el Evangelio de san Mateo de este fin de semana vemos a Jesús exhortando a los doce: “No teman a [nadie]”. Jesús estaba presentando un nuevo modo de pensar a los judíos y a sus discípulos, y algo de eso que decía era contradictorio al modo de pensar tradicional. Él tuvo que darse cuenta de que sus discípulos pudieran sentir miedo de compartir estas enseñanzas. Sin embargo, les dice que las pregonen desde las azoteas, no al oído, sino hablarlo abiertamente. Esto tuvo que asustar e incomodar a algunos. Pero, ¿acaso no es eso lo que quiere Satanás? Por temor callamos. Nos mantenemos en silencio. Lo opuesto al miedo es la valentía. La valentía nos permite vencer nuestros temores. Nos impulsa a hacer lo que normalmente nos hace sentir incómodos. Debemos tener la valentía de proclamar la verdad, proclamar la justicia, difundir la alegría y fomentar la paz. Jesús es verdad y es paz; por lo tanto, estamos llamados a proclamarlo a todo el que oiga. La valentía no viene siempre así de fácil; a veces hay que cultivarla con el entendimiento. Los discípulos y los mártires no sólo dieron su vida, sino que la entregaron por propia voluntad, confiando en Dios y a sabiendas de que su recompensa sería la vida eterna. Enfrentaron a sus perseguidores con valentía y convicción. ¿Tenemos esa misma valentía en nuestro caminar diario? Nuestra visión en la Diócesis de St. Petersburg es Vivir valientemente el Evangelio. Es nuestra misión como católicos y es el llamado que nos hace. ¡No temas a nadie; más bien vive valientemente! Monseñor Gregory Parkes Ruego al Señor que estas líneas les encuentren bien. Aunque nos falta un camino por recorrer antes de que las cosas vuelvan a la normalidad, (esto es, si lo que conocíamos como normal, continuase siendo una opción) pareciera que las cosas están camino a la normalidad. Quiero tomar esta oportunidad para desearles a los padres de familia, un Feliz Dia del Padre. El recién pasado fin de semana tuve la oportunidad de celebrar Misa. Al hacerlo me percaté de lo mucho que me hacía falta celebrar con personas, en lugar de hacerlo frente a una cámara. Aunque el número de feligreses participando era menor que de costumbre debido a las regulaciones, de todos modos me sentí muy bien. Este fin de semana escuchamos a Jesús en el Evangelio dirigiéndose a nosotros con palabras tan claras como verdaderas; “No le teman a nadie”. Luego nos recuerda que todos somos semejantes. Todos somos pecadores. Jesús y La Santísima Madre son los únicos seres humanos que no han pecado – Irónicamente, ellos no juzgan. Todos nosotros, a veces sentimos que tenemos la abilidad de juzgar a los demás, cuando en realidad , no la tenemos. A menudo escucho en confesión que algunas personas están enojadas porque algunas personas que ellos conocen , se “salen con la suya” y nadie lo sabe. Este Evangelio aclara muy bien esta situación; todo lo que hacemos, todo lo que hemos hecho, será de conocimiento de los demás. Esas personas que manifiestan esa opinión, al final no se salen con la suya. La parte triste del contenido de este párrafo es que no debemos ocuparnos de fijarse, ni de hablar de, las faltas de las demás personas. En otra escritura se nos dice muy claramente,, “Juzga y serás juzgado – no juzquez y no serás juzgado”. Deberíamos concentrarnos en lo que hemos hecho (aunque lo hayamos hecho hace años) que nunca dediquemos tiempo para juzgar a ninguna otra persona. Piénsalo;- si una persona está cerca de Dios y ha limpiado su vida de las ofensas del pasado - Quién crees tú que te ha limpiado tu vida de pacado? - Dios lo hizo!!! El te dejó ver lo que estabas haciendo, te dejó ver que hay una forma diferente de hacerlo, y tú la aprovechaste. Si algunas personas que conoces, estuviesen viviendo una vida terrible, lejos de la santidad, es porque todavía no han recibido el regalo que a ti, te ha sido dado. Cuando juzgamos a los demás, criticamos las faltas que cometen, no estamos representando a Dios, no estamos siendo Su portavoz. Toda hebra de cabello en nuestra cabeza ha sido contada – nuestro cuero cabelludo facilita en gran manera que Dios los cuente, diariamente. Me pregunto que hace Él con el resto del tiempo. Tú eres la única versión de ti en el planeta. Solo Tú tienes la habilidad de ser lo mejor que puedes ser; eso lo llevamos a cabo nutriendo nuestra relación con Dios, y lo hacemos simplemente amando – no juzgando. Busquemos reconocer a Jesús, de modo que Él nos reconozca a nosotros. Dios les Bendiga. LECTURAS DE HOY Primera lectura — El Señor ha salvado al desamparado de los manos de los malvados (Jeremías 20:10-13). Salmo — Escúchame, Señor, porque eres bueno (Salmo 69 [68]). Segunda lectura — Por gracia, el don generoso del Hijo de Dios, Jesucristo, nos ha salvado de todo pecado. (Romanos 5:12-15). Evangelio — No hay miedo cuando el amor de Dios se recibe como don precioso (Mateo 10:26-33).
