I pray these lines find all doing well. All is great here at Incarnation Central. Fall is upon us, school has begun, pumpkin coffee is back and life as we know it is just as it should be – That’s the pumpkin coffee talking! LOL Today in our gospel we are given a very subtle hint on how we are to live. We are to be child-like – not childish. There is a big difference. One who is childish thinks only of themselves, wants what they want, when they want it and how they want it. The childish truly believe and expect the world to revolve around them – and as children that is fine, its part of development. We, as adults, as Christians, answer to a much higher calling, to be childlike. In being this way, we see the joy in most everything, we see the glass as half full. I pray that all of you have experienced the look of the childlike; seeing the tree on Christmas morning, looking at the expression the first time they enter Disney World and many other events that bring about a wide-eyed amazement. God is with us all the time showing us in so many different ways how much He loves us. We should look at our loved ones, events that bring joy and good times with wide-eyed amazement realizing it is all a gift from God! God Bless Your Week! Love, Fr. Mike

SEPTEMBER 12, 2021 Religious Education Ministry Judy Licari reled@icctampa.org
Registration for Faith Formation classes and Sacramental Preparation has begun and classes begin Sunday, September12th. If you haven’t already registered your child/children this year, you will need to come by the faith formation office Monday-Thursday from 9:00-4:00 to register them. Please bring a copy of your child’s Baptismal certificate with you. If you have any questions, please contact Deacon Matt or Miss Judy in the Faith Formation Office at 813-884-3624 or email Judy at reled@icctampa.org.
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. If you, or anyone you may know, are interested in becoming Catholic or simply have questions regarding the Catholic faith, please contact Deacon Matt Shirina at 813-884-3624 or you can email him at dff@icctampa.org
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.
Suggested Intercessions in Connection with Hurricane Ida For all who have suffered injury or death as a result of Hurricane Ida, and for their families and loved ones, we pray to the Lord. For all who have sustained losses in the storm, that they may know God’s healing and care in those to whom they turn for assistance, we pray to the Lord.
Spirit FM's mission is to share the love of Christ and the beauty of the Catholic faith. Our vision and hope is that all will know the unconditional love and unshakeable hope of Jesus. 5
TWENTY-FOURTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
Our Public Masses Have Resumed With Safety Protocols In Effect (Face masks to your level of comfort for people who attend mass). Everyone must use main entrance and follow the instructions of the ushers. Please be patient. The side doors are ONLY emergency exits. They are marked by green crosses. People who live in the same home may sit together. Ushers will greet each person and show them to their seat. 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.
SEPTEMBER 12, 2021
Nuestra Misas Publicas Se Reanuden Con Protocolos de Seguridad En Efecto
(Las mascarillas a su nivel de comodidad para personas que asisten a misa). 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. Los ujieres (acomodadores) cortésmente le indicarán los espacios disponibles. Las personas que viven en una misma casa pueden sentarse juntos en el mismo banco. 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.
Bible Study Group
On September 14, 2021, the Tuesday night Bible Study Group will begin the program Lectio: Peter-Cornerstone of Catholicism, By Dr Tim Gray. Meeting time is 7:00900pm ON ZOOM (Online only-no in-person meetings). The study handbook can be downloaded free and weekly videos are available on FORMED.com also for free. For more information or to sign up, please call Donna Burch at 813-541-8506 or email donna.burch@verizon.net The character of St Peter is both inspiring and confounding to many of us. How could a stubborn and impulsive fisherman become the “rock” upon which Jesus would build his Church? Bringing together biblical accounts, historical evidence, Church teaching, Classical art, and personal insight, Dr Gray gives a fresh perspective on Simon Peter that is immediately informative and relevant in our lives. After all, if Jesus could bring out the very best in someone like Peter, then there is hope for the rest of us.
Prayer for Protection against Storms & Hurricanes
Our Father in Heaven through the intercession of Our Lady of Prompt Succor, spare us during this Hurricane season from all harm. Protect us and our homes from all disasters of nature. Our Lady of Prompt Succor, hasten to help us. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen

ES TODO SOBRE EL CONTROL Desde la infancia hasta la vejez, crecemos en el dominio de nuestra vida, nuestro cuerpo y nuestro destino. Este dominio es difícil de adquirir, y no lo dejamos escapar con facilidad. Gran parte de este dominio de sí mismos consiste en evitar el dolor o el malestar, así que cuando uno escucha cosas como “cargar con la cruz” y “perder la vida”, la tendencia es a resistir el mensaje. Santiago dice que la fe sin obras es una fe muerta. ¡Ay! ¡Eso es realmente un mensaje directo! Una forma de ver esto, así como lo de perder nuestra vida para encontrarla, es que la fe es tener más y más apertura a Dios como timón de nuestra vida. Es muy difícil para nosotros ceder el control, pero quizás lo que se nos pide es que no nos convirtamos en pasivos y pueriles, sino que dejemos que sea Dios quien dirija el rumbo de nuestro dominio propio y lo que deba lograr. Se nos pide que renunciemos a la necesidad de controlar los resultados de nuestros esfuerzos; que nos arriesguemos, como lo hizo Jesús, a perder todo lo que estamos luchando por lograr. Se nos pide que dejemos que Dios tome la iniciativa y el control de los resultados, aunque nunca podamos verlos. LECTURAS DE LA SEMANA Lunes: 1 Tim 2:1-8; Sal 28 (27):2, 7-9; Lc 7:1-10 Martes: Nm 21:4b-9; Sal 78 (77):1bc-2, 34-38; Fil 2:6-11; Jn 3:13-17 Miércoles:1 Tim 3:14-16; Sal 111 (110):1-6; Jn 19:25-27 o Lc 2:33-35 Jueves: 1 Tim 4:12-16; Sal 111 (110):7-10; Lc 7:36-50 Viernes: 1 Tim 6:2c-12; Sal 49 (48):6-10, 17-20; Lc 8:1-3 Sábado: 1 Tim 6:13-16; Sal 100 (99):1b-5; Lc 8:4-15 Domingo: Sab 2:12, 17-20; Sal 54 (53):3-8; Sant 3:16 — 4:3; Mc 9:30-37
