Naples, FL 34120 The Destiny of All Mortal Flesh 239-592-1949 Fax: 239.354.4462 E-Mail: [email protected] The celebration of today’s feast on a Sunday is unusual on our Roman Catholic calendar. Our observance of the Lord’s Day is held Eucharistic Adoration- Chapel in such high esteem that few other feasts replace it. Occasionally Adoración Eucarística - Capilla there is a feast—usually of one of the saints—in which the saving Mon-Fri 9 a.m. -3:45 p.m. power of God in Christ is so uniquely focused that the Roman rite Mass Times/Horas de Misa deems it worthy of celebration on the Lord’s Day. Today is such Masses in red will also be Live Streamed/ a feast. Yet some are surprised at the brevity of the dogma in its Transmisión por Internet entirety: “We pronounce, declare and define it to be a divinely revealed dogma: that the Immaculate Mother of God, the ever Saturday/Sab: 4 p.m. Sunday/Dom Virgin Mary having completed the course of her earthly life, was 7:30 a.m., 9 a.m. & 11 a.m., 1 p.m. En Español, 5 p.m. assumed body and soul to heavenly glory.” The Roman Catholic Monday - Saturday/Lun - Sab: 8:30 a.m. Church never defined any specifics or particulars about the event Holy Days/Días Festivos itself. It is not in the scriptures. There are no verifiable eyewitness 8:30 a.m., Noon & 7:00 p.m. (Bilingual) accounts. At its core, the dogma reveals in Mary the destiny of Sacrament of Reconciliation/ all mortal flesh, and reinforces our creedal belief in resurrection Sacramento de la Reconciliación of the body. This feast strengthens our faith, defined last week in Saturday 9-10 a.m. or by appointment Hebrews as the realization of things hoped for. We find, in Mary, Media hora antes de la Misa de la 1pm, sábados that realization of what we all hope for, what Paul today affirms: de 9 a 10 o por citas al 592-1949 “In Christ shall all be brought to life” (1 Corinthians 15:22).

Your Inner Hermitage Try to keep a little hermitage in the center of your being, where you can continue your prayer even during a busy day. A simple prayer such as “Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the living God, have mercy on me a sinner” can give you much consolation and strength when you allow it to remain present in your inner hermitage. It is the way to let the Spirit of God pray in you. Henri Nouwen St. Agnes Parish 7 August 15, 2021
Stewardship is the grateful response of a Christian disciple who recognizes “and receives God’s gifts and shares these gifts in love of God and neighbor. –Diocese of Wichita ” OUR FIRST CHRISTIAN STEWARD: THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY
This Sunday (August,15) we celebrate the Feast of the Assumption; the day we recall Our Blessed Mother being assumed into heaven and crowned queen. In the Gospel reading on this day, we hear proclaimed once again the Canticle of Mary, recorded in the Gospel of Luke (1:46-55). It is the Virgin Mary’s song of joy in response to her cousin Elizabeth’s greeting (Luke 1: 41-45) and summarizes Mary’s deep faith and trust in God. This joyous song is also known as the Magnificat, is a beautiful stewardship prayer used by the Church every day since the fifth century. It is a hymn at Evening Prayer in the Liturgy of the Hours. As a young woman, humble and poor, Mary becomes an interpreter of God’s plan of salvation, she reveals to us the fundamentals of good stewardship, and she becomes a prophetic witness to social justice for all future generations who “will call me blessed” (Luke 1: 48). Mary was the first disciple, the first Christian steward of God’s plan. Take a few moments and pray this stewardship prayer. Consider its implications for your life. How do you magnify the Lord? How do you make God “bigger” in your day-to-day world? The Magnificat My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord, my spirit rejoices in God my Savior; for he has look with favor on his lowly servant. From this day all generations shall call me blessed; Because He who is mighty has done great things for me, and Holy is His Name; And His mercy is from generation to generation on those who fear Him. He has shown might with His arm, He has scattered the proud in the conceit of their heart. He has put down the mighty from their thrones and has exalted the lowly. He has filled the hungry with good things, and the rich he has sent away empty. He has given help to Israel, His servant, mindful of His mercy - Even as He spoke to our father - to Abraham and to his posterity forever. NUESTRA PRIMERA MAYORDOMA CRISTIANA: LA SANTÍSIMA VIRGEN MARÍA
Este domingo (15 de agosto) celebramos la Fiesta de la Asunción; el día en que recordamos a Nuestra Santísima Madre siendo asunta al cielo y coronada reina. En la lectura del Evangelio de este día, escuchamos proclamado una vez más el Cántico de María, registrado en el Evangelio de Lucas (1, 46-55). Es el canto de alegría de la Virgen María en respuesta al saludo de su prima Isabel (Lucas 1: 41-45) y resume la profunda fe y confianza de María en Dios. Este alegre canto también es conocido como Magníficat, es una hermosa oración de mayordomía utilizada por la Iglesia todos los días desde el siglo quinto. Es un himno en la oración vespertina de la Liturgia de las Horas. Como mujer joven, humilde y pobre, María se convierte en intérprete del plan de salvación de Dios, nos revela los fundamentos de la buena mayordomía y se convierte en testigo profético de la justicia social para todas las generaciones futuras que “me llamarán bienaventurada” (Lucas 1:48). María fue la primera discípula, la primera mayordoma cristiana del plan de Dios. Tómese unos momentos y haga esta oración de mayordomía. Considere sus implicaciones para su vida. ¿Cómo magnificas al Señor? ¿Cómo haces a Dios “más grande” en tu mundo cotidiano? El Magníficat Proclama mi alma la grandeza del Señor, se alegra mi espíritu en Dios mi Salvador; porque ha mirado con agrado a su humilde sierva. Desde este día me dirán bienaventurada todas las generaciones; Porque ha hecho en mí grandes cosas el Poderoso. Su nombre es Santo, y su misericordia llega a sus fieles de generación en generación sobre los que le temen. Ha mostrado poder con su brazo, ha esparcido a los soberbios en la vanidad de su corazón. Derribó a los poderosos de sus tronos y exaltó a los humildes. A los hambrientos colmó de bienes y a los ricos despidió vacíos. Él ha ayudado a Israel, su siervo, acordándose de su misericordia, como le habló a nuestros padres, en favor de Abraham y a su descendencia por siempre.

Andres Cordero, a member of our parish for more than ten years and part of the Spanish choir, answered God’s call and started the seminary this month. “It was a slow process and a big responsibility. I felt that the Lord had always shown me that this was the right path to take. Through prayer, I started to meditate on this change in my life, and I’m glad that I was able to respond to him.” said Andres about his discerning process. Andres was born in Ibague, Colombia and from childhood, was taught the Catholic faith by his grandparents. When he was 22 years old, he came with his mom Diana and his broth- er Jose to the United States. They became members of St. Agnes and Laura H. Padilla introduced them to the choir. Andres and his brother Jose loved music, and both graduated from college with music degrees. “I’m thankful that we had the opportunity to graduate from college here in the US with music degrees, and most importantly, that we are using our talents and music education for the service of the Church,” he added. Andres’ family is very happy for him, “They received my decision of being a seminarian as a gift from God, it was a feeling of joy and gratitude. They are pleased and proud of my decision; I have their total love and support.” he said. “In addition, I’d like to thank Deacon Roberto Landron, Father Luis Pacheco, Pastor Very Rev. Robert Kantor, Father Jose Del Olmo, Father Marcial Garcia, and Father Carlos Encinas for their support, guidance, and prayers through this process.” Let’s pray for Andres’ faith journey and God’s guidance on his path to priesthood. Yenlys Hernandez Communications Coordinator Un llamado al sacerdocio ¿Cómo conoces tu vocación en la vida? ¿Estás escuchando lo que Dios tiene que decirte? Andrés Corde- ro, miembro de nuestra parroquia por más de diez años y parte del coro, respondió al llamado de Dios y comenzó el seminario este mes. “Fue un proceso lento y una gran responsabilidad. Sentí que el Señor siempre me había mostrado que este era el camino correcto a seguir. A través de la oración, comencé a meditar so- bre este cambio en mi vida y me alegro de haber podido responderle.” dijo Andrés sobre su proceso de dis- cernimiento. Andrés nació en Ibagué, Colombia y desde niño sus abuelos le enseñaron la fe católica. Cuando tenía 22 años, vino con su mamá Diana y su hermano José a los Estados Unidos. Se convirtieron en miembros de St. Agnes y Laura H. Padilla los presentó al coro. Andrés y su hermano José aman la música y ambos se graduaron de la universidad con títulos en música. “Estoy agradecido de que tuviéramos la opor- tunidad de graduarnos de la universidad aquí en los EE. UU. con una carrera en música y, lo más importante, que estamos usando nuestros talentos y educación musical para el servicio de la Iglesia”, agregó. La familia de Andrés está muy feliz por él, “Recibieron mi decisión de ser seminarista como un regalo de Dios, fue un sentimiento de alegría y gratitud.

BAUTIZOS EN ESPAÑOL 1213 El santo Bautismo es el fundamento de toda la vida cristiana, el pórtico de la vida en el espíritu (“vitae spiritualis ianua”) y la puerta que abre el acceso a los otros sacramentos. Por el Bautismo somos liberados del pecado y regenerados como hijos de Dios, llegamos a ser miembros de Cristo y somos incorporados a la Iglesia y hechos partícipes de su misión (cf. Concilio de Florencia: DS 1314; CIC, can 204,1; 849; CCEO 675,1): “Baptismus est sacramentum regenerationis per aquam in verbo” (“El bautismo es el sacramento del nuevo nacimiento por el agua y la palabra”: Catecismo Romano 2,2,5). Clases para padres y padrinos: se realizan en el Centro Parroquial a las 11am, aula No 1. Llegar a las 10.30. Para inscribirse en las clases deben llamar a la oficina.
