In response to our Bishop’s call to action to address the issues of gun violence and hateful rhetoric in our nation, we will gather for Mass to pray for wisdom and courage in confronting these scourges in our society, as well as for healing and peace for all those affected by the recent mass shooting tragedies. We will then continue the conversation on our role as a Catholic community and individuals with a light reception and action session in Crespi Hall led by our own Deacon Warren Hoy, Director of Social Justice Ministries for the Diocese of Monterey.

MASS • COMMUNION TODAY’S READING
Basilica First Reading — You sent your holy spirit from on Saturday Vigil Mass high and thus were the paths of those on earth made 5:30 PM straight (Wisdom 9:13-18b). Sunday Mass 7:30, 9:15, 11:00 AM, (12:45 PM, and 5:30 PM) Psalm — In every age, O Lord, you have been our Holy Days: refuge (Psalm 90). 9:15 AM, 12 NOON and (5:30 PM) Second Reading — Paul asks Philemon to accept back his slave Onesimus as a brother Blessed Sacrament Chapel (Philemon 9-10, 12-17). Daily Morning Mass Monday — Friday (7:00 AM) Gospel — Which of you wishing to construct a tower Noon Mass does not first sit down and calculate the cost to see if Monday, Wednesday, Friday there is enough for its completion? (Luke 14:25-33). Noon Communion Services Tuesday, Thursday Saturday Morning Mass “Whoever does not carry his own cross and come after me, 8:30 AM cannot be my disciple.” Jesus’ words in the Gospel today must Saturday Reconciliation have seemed harsh and perhaps abstract to the “great crowds” 9:30 AM — 10:30 AM that were traveling with him. We know Jesus in the context of the crucifixion, but his followers did not know that was where he was going to end up, carrying his own literal cross in the streets of St. Francis of the Redwoods Jerusalem to his execution. They may also have been startled to Big Sur, CA hear Jesus, who usually preached love for all people, say they needed to hate their own family to follow him. Jesus knows what Bilingual Mass (Español/English): st rd is facing him in Jerusalem, and he knows the difficulties his 1 and 3 Saturday (6:00 PM) followers will be facing there and after his death. He is preparing them for the single-minded focus that is required to be his disciple, encouraging them to free themselves from distractions. That same single minded focus is required of the followers of Jesus today. It may be a comfort to know, that just as with his READINGS FOR THE WEEK early followers, Jesus knows our challenges and struggles, our own cross. He knows how heavy it can be, and he knows that we Monday: Col 1:24 — 2:3; Ps 62:6-7, 9; will sometimes doubt we have the strength to carry it. He knows that it will likely change, as we grow and change, but that we will Lk 6:6-11 never be completely free of it. The human condition promises that we will struggle with illness, pain, loss, and fear throughout our lifetimes: we are guaranteed a cross. Jesus promises that we can carry that cross, because he has already carried it for us. Jesus Tuesday: Col 2:6-15; Ps 145:1b-2, 8-11; promises he will be with us as we carry our cross, following him. Lk 6:12-19 And just as people came forward to show compassion and offer help to Jesus as he struggled under his own cross we can be certain that we will see the face of Christ in the those who come forward to help us with our cross when it is overwhelming. Wednesday: Col 3:1-11; Ps 145:2-3, The psalmist asks, “may the gracious care of the Lord be ours.” 10-13ab; Lk 6:20-26 Our faith promises that we can be certain of God’s gracious and loving care, and calls us to be the instruments of that care for others. Being a follower of Jesus means not only taking up our own cross, but when our burden allows, reaching out and helping Thursday: Col 3:12-17; Ps 150:1b-6; others who are struggling to carry theirs. What cross are you Lk 6:27-38 carrying now? Can you help someone else with their cross, or do you need to reach out for help?

LITURGY VAULT “The liturgy is celebrated for God and not for ourselves; it is His work; He is the subject; and we must open ourselves to Him” (Pope Benedict XVI, 3 October 2012).
THE ORDER OF MASS: THE LITURGY OF THE WORD – PART 15
The Universal Prayer Known by many different names over the years, the most recent edition of The Roman Missal officially terms what concludes the Liturgy of the Word as Oratio Universalis or Universal Prayer, which occurs after the Creed, or, if the latter is not prescribed, after the Homily. The Universal Prayer is “a series of petitions for all people by which the faithful exercise their priestly function. Hence, they are also known as the Prayer of the Faithful and should be included in every Mass with a congregation” (Rev. Jovian P. Lang, OFM, Dictionary of the Liturgy (1989), p. 224). In the Universal Prayer, according to the General Instruction of the Roman Missal, “the people respond in a certain way to the word of God which they have welcomed in faith and, exercising the office of their baptismal priesthood, offer prayers to God for the salvation of all. It is fitting that such a prayer be included, as a rule, in Masses celebrated with a congregation, so that petitions will be offered for the holy Church, for civil authorities, for those weighed down by various needs, for all men and women, and for the salvation of the whole world” (n. 69). “As a rule, the series of intentions is to be (a) For the needs of the Church; (b) For public authorities and the salvation of the whole world; (c) For those burdened by any kind of difficulty; (d) For the local community. Nevertheless, in a particular celebration, such as Confirmation, Marriage, or a Funeral, the series of intentions may reflect more closely the particular occasion” (n. 70). The celebrant directs the Universal Prayer from the chair, beginning it with a brief introduction inviting the congregation to pray. “The intentions are announced from the ambo or from another suitable place, by the deacon or by a cantor, a lector, or one of the lay faithful” (General Instruction of the Roman Missal, n. 71). “The congregation takes part in the general intercessions while standing and by saying or singing a common response after each intention or by silent prayer” (General Introduction to the Lectionary, n. 31). Here at Carmel Mission Basilica, the common response is almost always “Lord, hear our prayer”. The celebrant then concludes with a prayer, seconded by the congregation’s “Amen”. At Carmel Mission Basilica, the intercessions that we use are taken from Bishop Peter J. Elliott’s 2009 Prayers of the Faithful for All Sundays, Solemnities, Major Feasts, and Other Occasions, which attempts to “extend the content of the readings for each celebration into the intercessory prayers of the community. Therefore, many of the intentions are those suggested by the content of the readings in the Lectionary… This continuity of content allows the ‘Prayer of the Faithful’ to bring the Liturgy of the Word to a fitting conclusion” (pp. xvii-xviii), while at the same time serving as a “bridge” between the Liturgy of the Word and the Liturgy of the Eucharist.

As parishioners here at Carmel Mission Basilica, we know that when the Giving Tree appears at the church entry, our preparation for the Christmas Season is about to begin. Each year, we are asked to contribute to the Christmas happiness of a poor child or family living in the migrant worker camps nearby. Yet, many, perhaps most, parishioners don’t realize that this ministry goes on all year—not just at Christmas. Each month, beans, rice, clothing and other items are delivered to the camps by fellow parishioners including the Knights of Columbus, volunteers as well as by members of the ministry’s major sponsor, the Order of Malta.
During the year, it is estimated that over 3,660 children, 384 seniors, and 3,936 adults are recipients of these needed gifts. As the monthly food supplied is not donated, the ministry relies solely on donations and grants to fund this help to the less fortunate. Bishop Daniel and Father Paul have given their support to this effort begun by parishioner, Bitten Falge, many years ago. Father Paul has kindly allowed a second collection this weekend to help the ministry defray its monthly costs and prepare for the large Christmas distribution. If you could give $10, $25 or more to the effort, each dollar goes a long way to helping these families get by.
Thank you in advance for your generosity. Page 9 CARMEL MISSION BASILICA (1771) September 8, 2019
DOCENT CORNER AND STEWARDSHIP
ST. ROSE OF VITERBO There is an old painting (circa 1774) in the rear of the church of St. Rose (1234-1252) from Viterbo, Italy who is the patron saint of exiles and people rejected by religious orders. Born of poor and pious parents, Rose was remarkable for holiness and for her miraculous powers from her earliest years. She lived as a recluse and did penance even at an early age. St. Rose preached against the anti-papal imperial party and the would-be emperor Frederick II of Germany and spoke in support of the Pope. She was so successful that her family was banished from the city because the imperial power was seriously threatened. She thereupon prophesied the death of Frederick and he died 8 days later. Viterbo returned to papal jurisdiction and St. Rose and her parents returned home. She asked to be admitted to the local convent of St. Mary of the Roses, the Poor Clares of the 2nd Order of St. Francis. The abbess refused to receive her because she was poor and could not bring with her the required "dowry." She humbly submitted, foretelling her admission to the monastery after her death. She went back to her father's house and continued her life there in a cell of the house as a "private religious", a 3rd order Franciscan. She died at age 17. Six years later, Pope Innocent IV ordered that her uncorrupt body be transferred to the church of the convent of St. Mary of the Roses as she had foretold it would be. She was canonized in 1457 and her feast day is 4 September. Her body, still uncorrupt, is carried in procession through Viterbo on her feast day. There is a university in La Crosse, Wisconsin named after her. The painting is thought to from the Mexico City studio of Jose de Páez.

Dear Friends of Carmel Mission,
I personally invite you to our 55th Annual Carmel Mission Fiesta on Sunday October 6, 2019 from 11-5 p.m. Our main goals this year are to bring the larger community together to celebrate and get acquainted in our breathtaking Carmel Mission Courtyard and raise much needed funds to benefit Junipero Serra School. The funds raised will directly support Principal Henderson’s vision of providing a solid Catholic based education to our younger community.
The 2019 Fiesta Committee is organizing a truly fun event!
The festivities will kick off with our annual procession from the Basilica following our 11:00 a.m. mass on October 6th. Accompanied by a Mariachi Band, I will lead our congregation to the courtyard. I encourage you to stay and join in the festivities by partaking in the made to order fresh food from food trucks, shop the local artisan wares, and enjoy a drink while watching the performance of Aztec Dancers followed by the locally famous Money Band. On the Junipero Serra School Grounds at the Kid Zone the popular DJ Frank will engage our kids in interactive games and award youth oriented prizes. I encourage you to bring your friends and family to enjoy!
Most importantly, we need your support to make this fundraising effort a success as this annual fiesta is a key event held to financially benefit Junipero Serra School. The proceeds from the raffle tickets will be used to support the Opportunity Fund which helps deserving students and their families afford a quality Catholic education. Proceeds will also be used to support Principal Henderson’s vision aimed at enriching the current educational program designed to cultivate, not only academic excellence and creative expression, but also guide positive character development incorporating Christian values of service and positive character development.
I thank you for your membership of our wonderful parish community and your continued support of our excellent parish school.
In the great love of Jesus Christ,
Fr. Paul P. Murphy
Pastor at Carmel Mission
