Thirtieth Sunday in Ordinary Time NO COMPARISONS How many times have we read or heard about someone who’s gotten into trouble—maybe even fired from a job—because of a brush with the law? While our “Christian” minds tell us to be sorry and even pray for the person, a little voice inside our heads may also be saying, “I’m glad I would never do anything like that.” And perhaps we wouldn’t. But are there some things we do that are still not pleasing in God’s eyes? Today’s readings caution us not to look so intently at someone else’s wrongdoing that we overlook our own weaknesses and shortcomings. When we measure ourselves against the worst people we can think of, we come out looking pretty good. There is a danger, however, in using someone else’s behavior as a way of reflecting our own goodness. TODAY’S READINGS First Reading — The LORD is a God of justice who hears the cry of the oppressed, the orphan, the widow, the lowly (Sirach 35:12-14, 16-18). Psalm — The Lord hears the cry of the poor (Psalm 34). Second Reading — The crown of righteousness awaits me (2 Timothy 4:6-8, 16 -18). Gospel — The tax collector stood at a distance, beat his breast, and prayed, “O God, be merciful to me, a sinner” (Luke 18:9-14). READINGS FOR THE WEEK Eph 4:32 — 5:8; Ps 1:1-4, 6; Lk 13:10-17 Eph 5:21-33 or 5:2a, 25-33; Ps 128:1-5; Lk 13:18-21 Wednesday: Eph 6:1-9; Ps 145:10-14; Lk 13:22-30 Thursday: Eph 6:10-20; Ps 144:1b, 2, 9-10; Lk 13:31-35 Friday: Eph 2:19-22; Ps 19:2-5; Lk 6:12-16 Saturday: Phil 1:18b-26; Ps 42:2, 3, 5cdef; Lk 14:1, 7-11 Sunday: Wis 11:22 — 12:2; Ps 145:1-2, 8-11, 13-14; 2 Thes 1:11 — 2:2; Lk 19:1-10 Monday: Tuesday:

Today is World Mission Sunday! On this 90th World Mission Sunday, your role is critical in reminding your parish family of our common missionary call. We have the opportunity to change the world through merciful acts as our prayers and sacrifices accompanying the good works carried out in Mission Churches across the globe. This annual gift, gathered through the World Mission Sunday collection for the Society for the Propagation of the Faith, supports missionaries serving in more than 1,111 mission dioceses, each of which fervently needs help to provide service and spiritual comfort for the poorest and most vulnerable, sanctifying them with the Sacraments and offering the Lord’s hope and peace. Today we celebrate World Mission Sunday when we are invited to support the 1,111 mission dioceses around the world. Please keep the missions in your prayers and please be generous in today’s collection.

A Message from our ICS Altar Servers! I began to altar serve in 5th grade and now I am in 8th grade. I am sad to be graduating because I won’t get to volunteer for school masses. When I altar serve I feel like I can be myself, even though I can be a bit shy in school. I like altar serving because I can tell everyone I am CATHOLIC AND PROUD when I wear those clothes! Showing my faith is the best thing I can do. In my life, I feel that faith comes first, and then I can worry about other things later. I am very proud to be Catholic. - Sophie Ramos, ICS Altar Server & Student
Getting to altar serve is a privilege because I get to be with God on the altar. I started altar serving in 5th grade and now I am in 8th grade. When I altar serve I feel special, but everyone is equally as special. This year I will be graduating, but I will still serve on the weekends because I go to this Church as well as this School. If you like to serve God there are many ways to do so‌ you could be a Eucharistic Minister, a sacristan and much more. Life is short, so serve God because we all have one goal. That goal is to get to heaven. - Erik Rosario, ICS Altar Server & Student

Trigésimo Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario NO HACER COMPARACIONES
¿Cuántas veces hemos leído o escuchado acerca de alguien que se metió en problemas, incluso despedido de su empleo, por un roce con la ley? Mientras nuestras mentes “cristianas” nos dicen que nos apiademos de esa persona y que roguemos por ella, puede que una vocecita interior también esté diciendo: “Me alegro de que yo nunca haría algo así”. Y tal vez no lo haríamos. Pero, ¿hay algunas cosas que hacemos que no agradan a Dios? Las lecturas de hoy nos advierten no mirar tan atentamente a las maldades de otros que pasamos por alto nuestras propias debilidades y defectos. Cuando nos comparamos con las peores personas a nuestro alrededor, salimos bastante bien. Sin embargo, hay un peligro en usar la conducta ajena como medida para reflejar nuestras propias virtudes. LECTURAS DE LA SEMANA Lunes: Ef 4:32 — 5:8; Sal 1:1-4, 6; Lc 13:10-17 Martes: Ef 5:21-33 o 5:2a, 25-33; Sal 128 (127):1-5; Lc 13:18-21 Miércoles: Ef 6:1-9; Sal 145 (144):10-14; Lc 13:22-30 Jueves: Ef 6:10-20; Sal 144 (143):1b, 2, 9-10; Lc 13:31-35 Viernes: Ef 2:19-22; Sal 19 (18):2-5; Lc 6:12-16 Sábado: Fil 1:18b-26; Sal 42 (41):2, 3, 5cdef; Lc 14:1, 7-11 Domingo: Sab 11:22 — 12:2; Sal 145 (144):1-2, 8-11, 13-14; 2 Tes 1:11 — 2:2; Lc 19:1-10 CON JESÚS TODO ES POSIBLE. NO CAMBIE DE PAREJA, CAMBIE DE ACTITUD. Asista a las reuniones del GRUPO DE PAREJAS MDS y reciba el apoyo. A veces no queremos escucharle a nuestro conyugue, ni a nuestra voz interior, pero cuando escuchamos testimonios reales, nuestra buena voluntad se fortalece. Invitamos a todas las parejas (casadas o no casadas) para que participen de nuestro grupo para su crecimiento. Tenemos charlas todos los viernes en los salónes St. Francis 1 & 2 a las 7:30 pm sin costo alguno. Ofrecemos cuidado de los niños. Para mayor información comunicarse con Ricardo y Claribel al (813) 850-6512. Los esperamos!

Oración por un nuevo obispo Dios todopoderoso y eterno, Pastor que guías a tu pueblo. Te damos gracias por habernos concedido a monseñor Lynch como obispo nuestro durante los últimos veinte años. Confiados en tu amor durante este tiempo de transición, creemos que, una vez más, darás a la Diócesis de St. Petersburg un pastor que nos inspire a ser el corazón misericordioso de Cristo, su voz de esperanza y sus manos de justicia. Fortalece a nuestro nuevo obispo, para que guíe nuestros pensamientos e ilumine nuestro corazón con la verdad del Evangelio, el poder de los sacramentos, y el deseo de servirte en todas las cosas. Te lo pedimos por Jesucristo, nuestro Señor. Amén
