July 25, 2021
The Annunciation to Joachim and Anne / Absolon Stumme / circa 1510 / Feast Day July 26th
BAPTISM OF INFANTS Baptisms of children under 7 years old are offered every fourth Sunday of each month in Spanish and every second Sunday of the month in English. Please visit our website or contact our office for details and requirements. CONFIRMATION At confirmation we receive the gifts of the Holy Spirit and confirm and renew our baptismal promises committing to a life of maturity in the Christian faith. Uncon-firmed Catholics wishing to receive the Sacrament should contact the Parish Office to make arrangements for suitable instruction. Unbaptized or non-Catholics can be confirmed at the Easter Vigil when they are baptized or received into the Church as a part of Rite of Christian Initiation of Adult. To enroll in RCIA, please call Griselda Cisneros at 992-0901. EUCHARIST Parishioners who wish to bring communion to their spouses should contact the parish office to pick up a pyx with the St. Leo’s inscription on it. Please use this pyx when approaching to receive a host for your spouse or a family member in the Communion procession during Mass. If you need to receive a gluten free host due to a medical condition please arrive 15 minutes before Mass begins and inform the Sacristan. RECONCILIATION Individual confession with a priest is the principal means of absolution and reconcil-iation of grave sins within the Church. The Sacrament of Reconciliation frees us from sinful patterns of behavior and calls us to complete conversion to Christ. Confessions are heard at 2pm on Saturday in English and 6pm on Sunday in Spanish in the Church. You may also approach any of our parish priests to hear your confession at another suitable time. THE RITE OF ANOINTING A person does not need to wait until the point of death to receive this sacrament. A careful judgment about the serious nature of the illness is sufficient. The Sacrament may be repeated if the sick person recovers after the anointing but becomes ill once again, or if, during the same illness, the person's condition becomes more serious. For those who are about to depart from this life, the Church offers the person Pen-ance, Anointing of the Sick, and the Eucharist as Viaticum (food for the journey) given at the end of life. Contact the Parish Office at 992-0901 to be connected with the priest on duty. SACRAMENT OF MARRIAGE If you are a registered parishioner of St. Leo and plan to marry in our parish please contact our office at least six months prior to the tentative wedding date. Weddings cannot be scheduled until the marriage preparation process is complete and it is determined that the parties are free to marry. ANNULMENT - Reestablishing the freedom to marry. An annulment is more accurately described as a declaration of matrimonial invalidi-ty. It is an official determination made by an ecclesiastical court that at the time of the marital consent exchanged by the parties a specific component of the marriage was lacking or defective. Hence, the marriage failed to be a marriage as defined by the Catholic Church. If you wish to reestablish your freedom to marry in the Church, please contact a parish priest to be your advocate in presenting your case to the Tribunal. VOCATION If you think that you have a vocation to the priesthood or religious life please speak with one of our priests, or contact the Diocesan Director of Vocations at 941-484-9548, visit www.dioceseofvenice.org/vocations

Sunday, Jul 25, 2021 SEVENTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME Celebrate mom-and-pop operations However few dollars there are, parents make them stretch until payday. However uncertain the way ahead, they shoulder the decision-making for their brood. However dark the night and scary the storm, parents hug their little ones through it. Today our nation celebrates Parents' Day, honoring the grownups who make children's lives safer, happier, and healthier. While they may not multiply loaves and fishes quite like Jesus, parents do perform minor miracles of sufficiency every day across this country. They take imperfect human love and weave a blanket of protection and possibility for their tribe. Support your local parents!
TODAY'S READINGS: 2 Kings 4:42-44; Ephesians 4:1-6; John 6:1-15 (110). "Gather the fragments left over, so that nothing will be wasted."
Monday, Jul 26, 2021 MEMORIAL OF JOACHIM AND ANNE, PARENTS OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY Family ties Jesus’ ancestry through Joseph is extensively traced in two of the gospels, but there’s nothing there about his maternal line. The names of his grandparents—Mary’s parents—aren’t mentioned in scripture, but tradition has dubbed them Joachim and Anne. Whatever their names were, they had to have been remarkable people to have raised the mother of God. The courage and faith they passed on to Mary is a precious gift all parents can pass to their children. Treasure your own intergenerational bonds.
TODAY'S READINGS: Exodus 32:15-24, 30-34; Matthew 13:31-35 (401). “The birds of the sky come and dwell in its branches.”
Tuesday, Jul 27, 2021 Parables of trying and trust Jesus favored parables—short allegories featuring people, places, and things familiar to ordinary listeners—to get his point across. Typically, they were about the kingdom of God, standing in stark contrast to the current world. “The kingdom of God, even if it requires our cooperation, is firstly a gift of the Lord,” Pope Benedict XVI reminded pilgrims in 2012. Not that humans shouldn’t lift a finger. Such parables, Benedict said, echo a famous saying from Ignatius of Loyola: “Act as if everything depended on you; trust as if everything depended on God.” Where do you need to trust God more and where, perhaps, do you need to act?
TODAY'S READINGS: Exodus 33:7-11; 34:5b-9, 28; Matthew 13:36-43 (402). “Whoever has ears ought to hear.”
Wednesday, Jul 28, 2021 Stay the course Father Stanley Rother is one step away from canonization and being named publicly as a saint of the Catholic Church. Born in Oklahoma in 1935, ordained a priest in 1963, missioned to Guatemala in 1968, Rother immersed himself among the Tz’ufujil Mayan communities. When civil war broke out and his name appeared on a death list, after briefly departing he decided to return, saying, the “shepherd cannot run." On July 28, 1981, three men entered the rectory where he lived and killed him. Now recognized as a martyr for the faith, Rother was beatified by the Vatican in 2016. As we await the canonization of this first American martyr, pray that you, too, might be a sign of Christ’s love to the people close to you, even when it comes at a cost.
TODAY'S READINGS: Exodus 34:29-35; Matthew 13:44-46 (403). “When he finds a pearl of great price, he goes and sells all that he has and buys it.”
Thursday, Jul 29, 2021 MEMORIAL OF MARTHA, MARY, AND LAZARUS Lesson learned Any memorial honoring Saint Martha, along with her sister and brother, includes a well-deserved nod to those who quietly serve. But Martha's role in salvation history goes well beyond her hospitality to Jesus and lies in the example of her maturing faith. When Jesus admonished her about her anxiety, Martha listened. She grew in wisdom and understanding, so much so that when her brother Lazarus dies, she runs to meet Jesus and declares: “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died. But even now I know that whatever you ask of God, God will give you.” Martha provides an inspiration to all of us to persevere in knowing God, loving Christ, and serving others.
TODAY'S READINGS: Exodus 40:16-21, 34-38 (404); John 11:19-27 or Luke 10:38-42 (607). “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and worried about many things. There is need of only one thing.”
Friday, Jul 30, 2021 Open the door to your own ministry Do you ever think about your daily activities as a ministry? No activity is outside the realm of a possible ministry. Take Blessed Solanus Casey, for example. One of Solanus’ jobs was as a porter, that is, a door keeper. Open/shut case, right? Not at all! Solanus understood his simple job as being a true ministry, service of God through service of others. He did not merely answer the door; he opened his heart to everyone who entered. In doing so, Solanus was able to reflect God’s love and healing to others in a way that truly made a difference. How do you open your heart to others during your daily routine?
TODAY'S READINGS: Leviticus 23:1, 4-11, 15-16, 27, 34b-37; Matthew 13:54-58 (405). “Is he not the carpenter’s son?”
Saturday, Jul 31, 2021 MEMORIAL OF IGNATIUS OF LOYOLA, PRIEST Book your biblical excursion Never underestimate the power of a book to change lives or history. Ignatius of Loyola was a young Spanish soldier from a prominent military family. While recovering from a serious war injury, he came upon Vita Christi, a spiritual biography of the life of Christ by 14th-century German Catholic monk Ludolph of Saxony. In the book he found the meditative technique of immersing oneself in a biblical scene from the life of Jesus. The book changed Ignatius’ life, and the technique became foundational to the development of Ignatian spirituality and the famed Spiritual Exercises. Try the technique: Open a gospel, read a story, and place yourself at the scene. Really be there. See what happens.
TODAY'S READINGS: Leviticus 25:1, 8-17; Matthew 14:1-12 (406). “This fiftieth year you shall make sacred by proclaiming liberty in the land for all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee for you.”
Today is the first
World Day for
Grandparents
and the Elderly!
“It is important for grandparents to meet
their grandchildren and for grandchildren
to meet their grandparents, because —
as the prophet Joel says — grandparents,
before their grandchildren, will dream,
and have illusions [great desires], and
young people, taking strength from their
grandparents, will go forward and
prophesy.”
– Pope Francis, January 31, 2021
PRAYER FOR THE FIRST WORLD DAY FOR GRANDPARENTS AND THE ELDERLY
I thank You, Lord, for the comfort of Your presence:
even in times of loneliness, You are my hope and my confidence,
You have been my rock and my fortress since my youth!
I thank You for having given me a family and for having blessed me with a long life.
I thank You for moments of joy and difficulty, for the dreams that have already come true in my life
and for those that are still ahead of me. I thank You for this time of renewed fruitfulness
to which You call me.
Increase, O Lord, my faith, make me a channel of your peace, teach me to embrace those who suffer more than me, to never stop dreaming, and to tell of your wonders
to new generations.
Protect and guide Pope Francis and the Church, that the light of the Gospel might reach the ends of the earth. Send Your Spirit, O Lord, to renew the world, that the
storm of the pandemic might be calmed, the poor consoled and wars ended.
Sustain me in weakness and help me to live life to the full
in each moment that You give me, in the certainty that you are with me every day, even until the end of the age. Amen.
The First World Day for
Grandparents & the Elderly Pope Francis has instituted the Church-wide celebration of World Day for Grandparents and the Elderly. Starting this year, it will be held on the fourth Sunday of July, close to the liturgical memorial of Saints Joachim and Anne, the grandparents of Jesus. Cardinal Farrell, Prefect of the Dicastery for Laity, Family and Life, pointed out that “this is the first fruits of the Amoris Laetitia Family Year, a gift to the whole Church that is destined to continue into the future. The pastoral care of the elderly is a priority that can no longer be postponed by any Christian community. In the encyclical Fratelli Tutti, the Holy Father reminds us that no one is saved alone. With this in mind, we must treasure the spiritual and human wealth that has been handed down from generation to generation”.
O God, Master of this passing world, hear the humble voices of your children. The Sea of Galilee obeyed Your order and returned to its former quietude. You are still the Master of land and sea. We live in the shadow of a danger over which we have no control: the Gulf, like a provoked and angry giant, can awake from its seeming lethargy, overstep its conventional boundaries, invade our land, and spread chaos and disaster.
During this hurricane season we turn to You, O loving Father. Spare us from tragedies like those whose memories are still vivid.
O Virgin, Star of the Sea, Our beloved Mother, we ask you to plead with your Son on our behalf, so that spared from the calamities common to this area and animated with a true spirit of gratitude, we may walk in the footsteps of your Divine Son to reach the heavenly Jerusalem, where a stormless eternity awaits us. Amen.
Prayer for Safety in Hurricane Season

ORACIÓN PARA LA PRIMERA JORNADA MUNDIAL DE LOS ABUELOS Y DE LOS MAYORES
Te doy las gracias, Señor, por el consuelo de tu presencia: También en la soledad, eres mi esperanza, mi confianza; ¡Desde mi juventud, eres mi roca y mi fortaleza! Gracias por haberme dado una familia y por la bendición de una larga vida. Te agradezco los momentos de alegría y de dificultad, por los sueños cumplidos y por los que aún tengo por delante. Te agradezco este tiempo de renovada fecundidad al que me llamas.
Aumenta, Señor, mi fe, hazme un instrumento de tu paz; enséñame a acoger a quien sufre más que yo, a no dejar de soñar y a narrar tus maravillas a las nuevas generaciones. Protege y guía al papa Francisco y a la Iglesia, para que la luz del Evangelio llegue hasta los confines de la tierra. Envía tu Espíritu, Señor, a renovar el mundo, para que la tormenta de la pandemia se apacigüe, los pobres sean consolados y toda guerra termine. Sostenme en la debilidad, y concédeme vivir plenamente cada momento que me das, con la certeza de que estás conmigo cada día hasta el fin del mundo. Amén
