14th Sunday of Ordinary Time

In today’s Gospel passage from Luke, we find our Lord appointing disciples to go out and prepare others to receive His invitation into the Kingdom of God. Every verse has something to say about the way a Christian steward should approach others.

This is why we emphasize hospitality as one of the pillars of stewardship. It is not enough just to point others to Christ, we must invite them to join us in community with Him; we must offer a place and mission for them in the Church and within our parish family.

INTERESTEDINTERESTED ININ BECOMIBECOMINGNG AA MEMBERMEMBER OFOF THE CATHEDRAL OF SAINT PATRICK? Church membership is an obligation of discipleship and love that derives from being united with Christ. A person becomes a member of the Catholic Church through Baptism. At the Cathedral, active membership is a requirement for the celebration of a marriage or baptism, for one to be eligible to be a Godparent or Confor- mation sponsor, and for special benefits such as tuition subsidy at a Catholic school. There are certain mini- mum requirements for parish membership called the precepts of the Church. The following are three of those precepts and how the Cathedral of Saint Patrick looks upon them in relation to parish membership.

 ATTENDANCE AT WEEKLY MASS. The first precept of the Church requires the faithful to participate in the Eucharistic celebration when the Christian community gathers together on the day commemorating the Resurrection of the Lord (CCC #2042) and on holy days of obligation (CCC #2043). Since the Cathedral’s weekly Mass attendance envelopes are the primary way we determine if parishioners are regularly attending Mass, parishioners must place their envelopes in the collection basket every Sunday regardless of whether one makes a financial con- tribution. If a parishioner gives online or prefers to place cash in the offertory basket, an empty Mass attendance envelope should still be placed in the basket with "I attended Mass" checked.

 RECEIPT OF THE SACRAMENTS. The third & fourth precept of the Church states the faithful must ensure preparation for the Eucharist by the reception of the sacrament of reconciliation at least once a year, and the reception of Holy Communion at least once a year during the Easter season (CCC #2042) and join in fast and abstinence during Lent.

 SUPPORT OF THE CHURCH. The fifth precept of the Church states that the faithful have the duty of providing for the material needs of the Church, each according to their abilities in

a regular, identifiable and meaningful way.

SAINTS OF THE WEEK Sunday, July 7: St. Palladius—Bishop St. Palladius, who was serving as a deacon in 429, encouraged Pope Celestine I to send St. Ger- manus to England to root out the Pelagian heresy. Shortly after, the pope made Palladius a bishop, and sent him to serve as the first bishop of Ireland, immediately preceding St. Patrick. Palladius arrived in Wicklow, and then he founded at least three churches in the territory of Leinster. While he didn’t experience great success, he laid the groundwork for the spread of Catholicism in Ireland. After his time there, he went to preach the faith to the people in Scotland. He died around 450.

Monday, July 8: St. Jeanne-Marie Kerguin—Virgin and Martyr St. Jeanne-Marie Kerugin was born on May 5, 1864 in Belle-Isle en Terre, France to a poor peasant family. In 1887, she joined the Franciscan Missionaries of Mary. Her early assignments were to Paris and Carthage, but poor health forced her to return home. In March 1899, she was sent to China to care for orphans and the sick. When the Boxer Rebellion began, there were severe persecutions of Christians in China. Jeanne was captured and beheaded on July 9, 1900. Quote: “I am happy to have to suffer. When one suffers, one is detached from the world. God wishes that I love him more than all else.”

Tuesday, July 9: St. Pauline of the Agonizing Heart of Jesus—Virgin St. Pauline was born Amabile Lucia Visintainer on December 16, 1865 in Vigolo Vattaro, Italy. Her family was poor and sought a better life by moving to Brazil in September of 1875. While growing up in Brazil, Pauline vis- ited the sick and taught catechism in her local church. At 15 years of age, she and a friend began caring for a woman dying from cancer. The two formed a religious order which would become known as the Little Sisters of the Immaculate Conception, at which time she took on the name St. Pauline of the Agonizing Heart of Jesus. In 1903, she was appointed superior of the group. However, a dispute resulted in her being removed from that role in 1909. In 1918, she returned to the motherhouse, and stayed there until death while suffering from diabetes.

Wednesday, July 10: Ss. Rufina and Secunda—Virgins and Martyrs Ss. Rufina and Secunda were sisters who resided in Rome during the mid-200s. Their parents arranged mar- riages for them to Armentarius and Verinus, but the sisters had consecrated their virginity to Christ and re- fused the proposal. The two were arrested for their Christianity during the persecutions, and brought before the prefect, Junius. The prefect ordered that Rufina be beaten with rods, at which point Secunda said to him, “Why do you treat my sister thus honorably, but me dishonorably? Order us both to be scourged, since we both confess Christ to be God.” The two were subjected to a series of tortures, but were saved from harm each time. Finally, the sisters were beheaded on the Aurelian Way. Thursday, July 11: Pope St. Pius I—Pope Pope St. Pius I was born in Aquileia, Italy during the first century. He was elected to the papacy as the ninth successor of St. Peter around the year 140. During his reign, he dealt with heresies promoted by the Gnostic leaders, Valentius and Cerdon. He also combated heresies promoted by Marcion, whom he excommunicated in July of 144. Pius later published a decree which permitted repentant heretics to be received into the Church and baptized. It was traditionally held that Pius was martyred, though that is no longer believed to have been the case.

Friday, July 12: Ss. Louis and Zélie Martin Ss. Louis and Zélie Martin were the parents of St. Therese of Lisieux. Louis was born in Bor- deaux in 1823. He learned clock-making in school, and opened his own jewelry business where he crafted watches. Zélie was born in Alençon in 1831. Louis and Zélie both considered the religious life prior to getting married. The couple had nine children. However, only five survived beyond early childhood. All five of their children entered religious life, most notably St. Therese. The two were the first husband and wife to be canonized as a couple. Saturday, July 13: St. Clelia Barbieri—Virgin St. Clelia Barbieri was born in Budrie, Italy on February 13, 1847. Her father died when she was nine years old, leaving Clelia the duty of working to help support her family. From her early childhood, she spent a lot of her time in prayer and practiced mortifications. She was often seen in ecstasies while praying. Clelia became a catechist in her parish, and she was urged by her pastor to teach the young girls in her parish who couldn't afford an education. Together with her friends, Orsola Donati and Teodora Baraldi, Clelia formed what became the Little Sisters of Our Lady of Sorrows. She died shortly after on July 13, 1870. Clelia is considered the youngest founder of a religious order in the history of the Catholic Church.

This year, the theme of the Diocesan Support Appeal (DSA) is “We Are His Hands.” This is a heartfelt re- minder and opportunity to put our faith into action to help those in need. It also beautifully reminds us of the mission of the ministries supported by the DSA, and what they do for thousands of our brothers and sisters across western North Carolina.

The DSA provides support for more than 20 services that Catholic Charities of Charlotte offers throughout the diocese. The appeal also provides funding for Vocations, the Housing Ministry, Education Ministries (providing over 30 different services), Multicultural Ministries, and the Eucharistic Congress. Some of these ministries provide services beyond the scope of individual parishes and some exist for the sole purpose of as- sisting parishes in our own mission to teach, evangelize and serve you, our parishioners.

Thousands of people across the diocese benefit because of the DSA-funded ministries. To help support these ministries, each parish or mission has been assessed a specific amount of money. Those that surpass their assessed targets receive rebates of 100% of the amount received over their target. If a parish falls short of the target, then they must pay the shortfall from the parish operating budget. Among those served are:  19,000+ clients of Catholic Charities Diocese of Charlotte  300,000+ minority parishioners through multicultural ministries  120 permanent deacons in formation  28 seminarians in formation DONATE  46,200 children & adults in Faith Formation TODAY  7,000 grade school & high school students in Catholic Schools charlottediocese.org/dsa  6,700 teenagers through Youth Ministry

To help support these ministries, each parish or mission has been assessed a specific amount. Those that surpass their assessed targets receive rebates of 100 percent of the amount received over their target. If a parish falls short of the target, then they must pay the shortfall from the parish operating budget.
