  • Franciscan Sacramentary Supplement
    1 FRANCISCAN PROPER OF THE SAINTS July 4 1. The rank of the celebration (solemnity, feast or memorial) is indicated for each day. If there is no indication, it is an optional memorial. 2. For each solemnity and feast a proper Mass is provided in its entirety. This is therefore used as given. 3. For memorials: a) Proper texts, given on some days, must always be used; b) When there is a reference to a particular common, the most appropriate texts should be chosen according to the principles at the beginning of the commons. The page reference in each case indicates only the beginning of the common to which reference is made. c) If the rederence is to more than one common, one or the other may be used, according to pastoral need. It is always permissible to interchange texts from several Masses within the same common. For example, if a saint is both a martyr and a bishop, either the common of martyrs or the common of pastor (bishops) may be used. d) In addition to the commons which express a special characteristic holiness (e.g., of martyrs, virgins, or pastors), the texts from the common of saints, referring to holiness in general may always be used. For example, in the case of a saint who is both a virgin and a martyr, texts from the common of saints in general may be used, in addition to texts from the common of martyrs or the common of virgins. e) The prayers over the gifts and after communion, unless there are proper prayers, may be taken either from the common or from the current liturgical season.

  • July 4, 2021 14Th Sunday in Ordinary Time
    SACRED HEART CATHOLIC CHURCH Sunday, July 4, 2021 14th Sunday in Ordinary Time Please Welcome Fr. Craig Marion to Sacred Heart Church I entered Seminary in 2010. Prior to entering Seminary, I worked for almost 13 years. My college background prior to entering Seminary was Business, Accounting and Finance. I was fortunate at the age of 18 to be hired by a small consulting company. Beginning as an office clerk, and in my time there I was able to learn a great deal. I was eventually working as the Assistant to the Human Resource Manager, I then worked as Systems Analyst and when I left the company I worked in Systems Support as a Recruiter. After leaving the consulting firm, I worked for General Motors for more than six years. In a strange turn of events, I ended up worked in the Quick Service Business. Who would have thought a guy that almost always worked in financial work, would wind up running Restaurants? Quick Service Restau- rants were very challenging. Immediately after being training, I turned around a unit in Southgate, from there I was asked to “fix” a unit in Allen Park, this unit had enormous problems, gaping holes in the HVAC roof units, the main drain line was no longer functional, the store was in severe disrepair and the employee morale was very low. In the end, working on average of 80-100 hours per/week a great deal was fixed and repaired and morale improved. The unit stabilized and was making money. However, after 18 months, I realized I could not continue to work nearly 100 hours average per/week permanently.

  • St. Elizabeth of Portugal (O.F.S.) [1271 – July 4, 1336] (Feast Day: July 5 in the United States)
    St. Elizabeth of Portugal (O.F.S.) [1271 – July 4, 1336] (Feast Day: July 5 in the United States) Elizabeth is usually depicted in royal garb with a dove or an olive branch because she worked for peace. She was named after her great-aunt, the great Elizabeth of Hungary, but is known in Portuguese history by the Spanish form of that name, Isabel. The daughter of Pedro III, King of Aragon, and Constantia, grandchild of Emperor Frederick II, she was educated very piously, and led a life of strict regularity and self-denial from her childhood: she said the full Divine Office daily, fasted and did other penances, and gave up amusement. Elizabeth was married at the age of 12 to Diniz (Denis), King of Portugal, a poet, and known as Rei Lavrador, or the working king, from his hard work in its country’s service. His morals, however, were extremely bad, and the court to which his young wife was brought consequently most corrupt. Diniz does not appear to have reformed in morals till late in life, when we are told that the saint won him to repentance by her prayers and unfailing sweetness. They had two children, a daughter Constantia and a son Affonso. The latter so greatly resented the favors shown to the king’s illegitimate sons that he rebelled, and in 1323, war was declared between him and his father. St. Elizabeth, however, rode in person between the opposing armies, and so reconciled her husband and son. Diniz died in 1325, his son succeeding him as Affonso IV.

  • The Tradition of the Red Mass Was Begun by Pope Innocent IV in 1243
    Mass with Bishop Timothy L. Doherty followed by a dinner for legal professionals and a presentation by Notre Dame Law Professor Richard W. Garnett The tradition of the Red Mass was begun by Pope Innocent IV in 1243 for the Ecclesial Judical Court asking the invocation of the Holy Spirit as a source of wisdom, understanding, counsel, fortitude and strength for the coming term of the court. The color red signifies the Holy Spirit and martyrdom. St. Thomas More is the patron saint of lawyers. The Diocese of Lafayette-in-Indiana will celebrate the fifth annual Red Mass on Monday, October 5, 2020, at the Cathedral of St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception in Lafayette at 5:30 pm. All government officials (federal, state, local levels, executive, legislative, judicial branches), attorneys, paralegals, law students and their spouses are cordially invited to attend. One does not have to be Catholic to join us in prayer and fellowship for the legal community. The Red Mass is a tradition in the Catholic Church which dates back to the 13th century. The first Red Mass is believed to have been celebrated in the Cathedral of Paris in 1245, and thereafter the tradition spread throughout Europe. A Red Mass was initially celebrated to mark the beginning of the annual term of the courts but can be held at other times. The word “red” was originally used to describe the Mass in 1310, because the justices of the English Supreme Court wore scarlet robes. Over time the “Red” Mass came to have a deeper theological meaning, with red symbolizing the “tongues of fire” that descended upon the Apostles at Pentecost bestowing the gifts of the Spirit.

La biografía está basada en documentos del Siglo XVI, tanto españoles como portugueses. Análisis de estos últi- mos nos han permitido identificar, con alta probabilidad, los nombres de sus padres y de otros miembros de su familia. En lo que se refiere a sus servicios a la Corona espa- ñola, otros documentos muestran que Gaspar Castaño fue el primer fundador de lo que ahora se llama Monterrey. El artículo también examina la entrada que él hizo al Nuevo México. Esta parte del trabajo continúa nuestro examen de esa incursión dando énfasis a lo sucedido después que Castaño fue tomado preso.
