Happy Feast Day! Today we celebrate the patroness of
our beloved parish, Our Lady of Mount Carmel. It's
inspiring to know that still today, in the year 2015, we
continue to walk spiritually in the footsteps of the early
Carmelite hermits of the late 12th century who lived on
"Mount Carmel" in the Holy Land.
Tuesday,July21st|Weekday
As I walk the streets of our neighborhood and hear you
speak of your love for our church and for our patroness,
I am in awe of the fact that the faith and devotion of
these Carmelites of a different age and continent, is still
alive and well here in Belmont of the Bronx! This can
only be explained by the power of God's grace and the
intercession of the mother of Jesus and the mother of us
all.

Like every good mother, Our Lady encourages us and
corrects us. She points us to Jesus and says,
"Do whatever he tells you.".
Wednesday,July22nd|SaintMaryMagdalane
As you know, this year we are having a small family
gathering after the 12:15pm mass on Hughes Ave,
celebrated by our friend and mentor, Archbishop Antonio Ciliberti. Let's have a great time together, as family but let's not forget the reason for our joy. Mary, our
mother, loves us, and points us to her soon, the source
of all real happiness, the Way, the Truth, and the Life.

One way we could make this feast day a spiritual
success, would be to ask Jesus if there is any way that
he wants us to change, to become more like him. Take
a few minutes today, if you will (I promise to do so too),
to pray for the grace to "do whatever he tells
you." Mary will be there to support us all the way!
Our Lady of Mount Carmel, pray for us!

REFLECTING ON GOD’S WORD
Sunday Gospel: Mark 6: 30-34
RIFLESSIONE SULLA PAROLA DI DIO
Vangelo della Domenica: Marco 6: 30-34
Jesus knew that he and his disciples needed occasional
Come mostra la prima lettura, e il Vangelo stesso, oggi
time alone, so they went “to a deserted place” to rest.
Are you over-working, over-volunteering, overextending yourself? Saint Benedict (485–547A.D.), the
founder of many monasteries in Italy wrote a set of
instructions, called the Rule, to ensure the monks could
pray, work, and live in harmony. The Rule is a blend of
moderate and reasonable instructions, requiring
everyone to participate in an orderly balance of daily
activity. This is hard for us to accomplish ourselves,
with the demands of the workplace and family. One busy
mom uses her bathroom moments to pray; a man who
takes many business trips prays as he drives. Parents
caring for a disabled son rely on the help of friends for a
necessary time-out. An overworked single mother takes
a nap every day while her children do their homework. It
is essential to refocus and refuel for your God-given
calling in life.
Living Stewardship Now
Look at your life and try to add up how you spend
your week. How much time is devoted to God, family,
work, and service? Do you rest and relax or just
change activities? What are your time-wasters?
“ROOTED”
Our Youth Group has chosen a name...ROOTED in
Christ Jesus! If you are in 9th to 12th grade, come to
Fatima Hall on Saturdays from 2pm to 4pm. For more
info please contact Jesus Vargas at the parish office.
al centro della parola che la liturgia ci porta c’è il fatto
che Dio ha concretizzato le sue promesse in Gesù di
Nazaret: attraverso il suo Salvatore egli veglia sul suo
popolo. Il Vangelo descrive la “piccola” gente di Galilea
che si affolla al seguito di Gesù come una comunità di
uomini sfiniti di cui nessuno si occupa. Essi hanno
sentito che Gesù si preoccupa sinceramente di loro, e che
ha il potere di venire loro veramente in aiuto. È ciò che
fa, portando l’indispensabile salvezza a tutti quelli che si
rivolgono a lui fiduciosi, nella loro disgrazia sia fisica
che sociale o spirituale.
La Chiesa non cerca oggi di distrarci con delle belle
storie che parlano dei tempi passati. Attira la nostra
attenzione sul fatto che Gesù Cristo risuscitato continua
ad agire come il Salvatore di Dio. Egli può e vuole
aiutarci nella nostra disgrazia. Compatisce le nostre
preoccupazioni. Nella nostra miseria possiamo rivolgerci
a lui. Egli ci consolerà, ci darà la forza, ci esaudirà. È lui
che ci fa trovare le vie per uscire dalla disgrazia, che ci
mette accanto delle persone che ci aiutino. E soprattutto,
Gesù Cristo conosce l’ultima e la peggiore delle nostre
miserie: la nostra ricerca di una salvezza duratura e
felice, che sia per noi o per tutti quelli che amiamo, dei
quali ci preoccupiamo, e che abitano con noi questo
mondo.

REFLEXIONEMOS LA PALABRA DE DIOS
Evangelio del Domingo: Marcos 6: 30-34
Jesús
sabía que él y sus discípulos necesitaban
ocasionalmente un tiempo a solas, por eso se los llevó
consigo a “un lugar solitario” para descansar. ¿Estás
trabajando en exceso u ofreciendo demasiado tu tiempo
voluntario? San Benito (485–547A.D.), el fundador de
muchos monasterios en Italia, escribió una serie de
instrucciones, conocidas como la Regla benedictina, para
garantizar que los monjes pudieran orar, trabajar y vivir
en armonía. La Regla es una combinación de
instrucciones moderadas y razonables exigiendo la
participación de todos en las actividades diarias de una
manera ordenada y equilibrada. Esto es difícil de lograr
para ninguno de nosotros por sí mismo debido a las
exigencias del trabajo y la familia. Hay una mamá que
ora cuando está en el baño; un hombre que reza mientras
maneja en sus muchos viajes de negocios. Los padres
que tienen un hijo discapacitado dependen de la ayuda
que sus amistades puedan brindarle para tener un respiro
necesario. Una madre soltera con exceso de trabajo toma
una siesta todos los días mientras sus hijos hacen la tarea
escolar. Reenfocarte y reabastecer tus energías son cosas
esenciales para responder al llamado de Dios en tu vida.
Viviendo la Palabra de Dios
Reflexiona sobre tu vida y trata de hacer un recuento
de cómo pasaste la semana. ¿Cuánto tiempo dedicaste
a Dios, la familia, el trabajo y los servicios?
