I pray these lines find all doing well. All continues to be well here at Incarnation – after all – we are in pumpkin season so how could anything be bad? LOL This weekend we hopefully learn about humility and what it is to be truly humble. Being humble will help us to realize whether we are on the right track, spiritually, or not. In general, we are always called to see others on the same plane as we see ourselves – we are not place ourselves or others in different levels of importance – we should be respecting everyone and see no one as - below us. By the same token we are not to see ourselves as below others. Each and every one of us is a child of God – that is first and foremost how we are to look at everyone. The disciples were arguing amongst themselves as to who was the greatest – grown men trying to figure out who is the best, amazing! But as I write this, I guess we as a people have not changed that much, which of course is why it made the Scriptures in the first place – we still need to hear and learn that lesson. Little children, before society gets a hold of them, see everyone the same. They are welcoming, they give everyone the benefit of the doubt and they do not see people as one being better than another. That is the beautiful image given to us of Jesus embracing that child. If only we as adults had the ability to see like children do, maybe someday. Have a great week, God Bless You! Love, Fr. Mike

RCIA Interested in Becoming Catholic? Is God calling you? Are you looking to deepen your relationship with Jesus and be part of His Church? RCIA – Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults is the process of initiation by which individuals are fully received into the Catholic Church through the reception of Baptism, Confirmation, and Holy Eucharist or Communion. This process begins September 12th.

Catechists Needed!
Registration has begun for Faith Formation classes, and we are asking for those that may teach now or have taught in the past to contact the Faith Formation Office if they would like to be a catechist. We have been blessed with an amazing Group of catechists, but we have a few, who after many dedicated years have retired from this part of their stewardship. With that in mind we do need some catechist and assistant catechist. If you feel God is calling you to help pass on our Faith to the children and youth of our Parish, please contact Deacon Matt or Judy Licari at (813) 884-3624 and see where your gifts and talents can be used. Please welcome the following children who were baptized here at Incarnation in the month of August: Liana Pax Calotes Macerena Jaramillo-Fruhwald Layla Marie Jarquin Bryson Antonio Reyes Matteo Giraldo Leon Nazly Hernandez Fleitas Dairon Molina Giavazzi Angelica Maria Nunez Fuenmayor Mia Chiquinquira Albarran Casanova
With the prayers and help of their parents, godparents, and this community, may the Holy Spirit fill them abundantly with His Grace at every moment of their lives. If you would like to have your child baptized, please call Deacon Matt @813-884-3624. 5

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. Siga la guía de las marcas con cinta verde en los bancos.

La capilla y el cuarto para familias con niños pequeños permanecerán cerrados. Canasta de colecta: las encontraremos a la entrada.

Ruego que estas líneas les encuentre en todos los aspectos de su vida. Todo anda bien aquí en Encarnación – después de todo, estamos en plena estación de las calabazas; entonces, ¿qué podría andar mal? Este fin de semana esperamos aprender sobre la humildad y lo que es ser verdaderamente humilde. Ser humildes nos ayuda a darnos cuenta, si estamos o no en el camino correcto espiritualmente. En general, estamos llamados a ver las demás personas, como nos vemos a nosotros mismos; no nos colocamos a nosotros mismos y los demás en diferentes niveles de importancia - deberíamos respetar a todos y no ver a nadie como si estuviesen por debajo de nosotros. De la misma manera nosotros, no debemos vernos a nosotros mismos como inferiores a los demás. Todos y cada uno de nosotros somos hijos de Dios; así es, ante todo, cómo debemos mirar a todos. Los discípulos estaban conversando entre ellos mismos, en cuanto a quién era el más importante; es decir, estos hombres adultos intentan averiguar quién es el mejor, ¡increíble! Pero mientras escribo estas líneas, supongo que nosotros, como pueblo, no hemos cambiado tanto; y por supuesto, es el por qué se escribió las Escrituras en primer lugar; todavía necesitamos escuchar y aprender esa lección. Los niños pequeños, antes de que la sociedad se apodera de ellos, suelen ver a todas las personas de forma igual. Son acogedores, dan a todos el beneficio de la duda y no ven a las personas como si una fuese mejor que otra. Esa es la bella imagen que nos comunica Jesús abrazando a ese niño. Si nosotros, como adultos, ¡¡tuviésemos la capacidad de ver y apreciar las cosas como lo hacen los niños!! tal vez algún día. ¡Que todos tengan una buena semana, Dios les bendiga! Con amor, P. Miguel
