When that happens, human life itself is degraded because it becomes, more and more, something produced or manufactured in various ways, ways that will only multiply as science advances. Children begin to be seen less as gifts received in a personal communion of mutual self-giving, and increasingly as a lifestyle choice, a commodity to which all consumers are entitled.” (Excerpted from the U.S. Bishops’ Pastoral Letter entitled Marriage: Love and Life In The Divine Plan.

Reflection…. • Suffering is not a sign of God’s abandonment of us, but an invitation to abandon ourselves to Him. • “God had one son on earth without sin but never one without suffering.” St. Augustine • Jesus Christ is not merely a promise of redemption, but the fulfillment of God’s greatest promise to love us perfectly, forever. • “God doesn’t promise to shield us from every one of life’s storms, but to shelter us within them.” THANK YOU FOR YOUR DONATIONS AND PRAYERS!!

Thank you & God bless…. 12am Saturday/3am Wednesday, Friday & Saturday/11am Thursday/2pm-Saturday 3pm Thursday & Saturday/Thursday & Saturday/4pm Thursday & Saturday/6pm Saturday/8pm Sat. Devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus: It was the special desire of our Lord Jesus Christ, revealed to Blessed Margaret Mary, that the first Friday of each month be consecrated to the devotion to and adoration of His most Sacred Heart. In order to better prepare for it, it would be well to read, the evening before, some book treating of this devotion, or of the Passion of Our Lord, and to make a short visit to the Blessed Sacrament. On the day itself we should, on awaking, offer and consecrate ourselves, with all our thoughts, words, and actions, to Jesus, that His Sacred Heart may be thereby honored and glorified. Page 6 Cathlic Charities June 23, 2013 SERVICES PROVIDED BY CCDOF: Mon - Fri 8:30am – 3:45pm (Closed 12:30pm - 1:00pm) Catholic Charities Diocese of Fresno (CCDOF) has been serving low-income Fresno County residents for over 45 years. Clients are required to PROVIDE IDENTIFICATION: (Adults- State Issued ID, Drivers License, Parole Card, DMV Receipt, Immigration Card, Children- Birth Certificates, Medi-Cal Cards, Soc Sec Cards, School Ids) for all household members. PROOF OF ADDRESS: (PGE Bill, SSI Letter, Lease/Rental Agreements, Utility Bills, Bank Statement, WIZ Report) PROOF OF INCOME: (Paycheck Stub, SSI Letter, Bank Statement, Unemployment Print Out, WIZ Report). A WIZ Report is provided to all clients free of charge from the Welfare Office- this document reports monthly income such as Food Stamps, CalWorks, Cash Aid, etc. Income is then measured against the Federal Poverty Income Guidelines. If a client is homeless and only has an ID (which most homeless do have) then a special travel pack will be provided for him/her. A travel pack consists of items that an individual can eat on the go- bread, peanut butter, granola bars, fruit, etc. Otherwise, once eligibility is determined, clients can receive the following services: Food Services- 8 Food Pantry Services a year- each food service covers approximately 5 days of meals. Fresh produce and vegetables (when in season) are distributed along with staple items (peanut butter, canned vegetables, spaghetti, tomato sauce, cereal, rice, beans and a meat product). USDA Commodities and Healthy Neighborhood Market- Commodities is 2nd Mon of each month, Market is last Thursday of each month. USDA Commodities is government food that is distributed to clients who meet the USDA income guidelines. Clients do not go through a regular Intake process for this distribution. One to two food bags are distributed to each family depending upon the household size. Healthy Neighborhood Market is a collaborative program with the Community Food Bank that allows CCDOF to distribute fresh fruits and vegetables “farmer’s market” style. Clothing Referral- Every 3 months clients can receive 3 outfits per family member. In addition, each member can receive shoes and undergarments. Blankets and coats are available with clothing referrals during the cold winter months, when there is adequate stock supply through community donations. DMV Reduced Fee ID Vouchers- Upon showing proof of income, clients can receive an application for a $8 DMV Reduced Fee ID Card. The client fills out the form, a CCDOF staff member signs and verifies income, and then the client brings the completed form to the DMV for assistance (Normal cost would be $27). Cal Fresh applications- Clients can be pre-screened for Cal Fresh (food stamp) assistance by completing a 10-15 minute application. This application is then sent to the county office where final eligibility is determined. CA Lifeline Program- Brief education trainings are completed with each client explaining the CA Lifeline Program. Brochures are then given to the client with contact information if they are interested in applying for a $7 a month landline. Hygiene, Diapers, Wipes, Baby Food- When product is available based upon community donations. Rent/Mortgage Assistance- When funding is available through the EFSP (Emergency Food and Shelter Program). This program provides us with a limited amount of funds for rental/mortgage assistance. PGE Assistance- On occasion, we do receive limited donations to assist clients with their PGE Bill. This is not a standard program for us, but one that is available through the generosity of donors. Representative Payee Program- The program is a very basic service structured to assist any person needing help with the management of their monthly resources. A budget is created for each case and benefits are received and then paid out for monthly living expenses. Senior Companion- The Senior Companion Program consists of low income seniors who volunteer to assist other frail seniors. Senior Companion Volunteers must be at least 55 years of age and meet income guidelines. Adult Protective Services-The Adult Protective Services Program focuses on protective services aimed at the elderly and disabled population.

HISPANIC MINISTRIES / MINISTERIOS HISPANOS Pagina 8 El Evangelio de hoy presenta la escena perfecta para la celebración del Rito de Aceptación en el Catecumenado. Escuchamos la pregunta de Jesús: “¿Quien dices tu que soy Yo?” Esta es una oportunidad para la reflexionar sobre ¿QUIEN como hemos evangelizado nosotros, que DICES TU decimos de Jesús y que hacemos para QUE SOY atraer a los fieles y ayudarlos a escoger el buen sendero. Nosotros no cargamos YO? solos con nuestra cruz, ¿Qué testimonio da nuestra vida? Maria D. Maritnez 23 de junio, 2013 SOLEMNIDAD DE SAN PEDRO Y SAN PABLO 29 de junio La solemnidad de los santos apóstoles Pedro y Pablo, fundadores de la Iglesia de Roma es la fiesta de «la unidad y la catolicidad de la Iglesia». Cada 29 de junio, en la solemnidad de San Pedro y San Pablo, apóstoles, recordamos a estos grandes testigos de Jesucristo y, a la vez, hacemos una solemne confesión de fe en la Iglesia una, santa, católica y apostólica. Ante todo es una fiesta de la catolicidad. Pedro, el amigo frágil y apasionado de Jesús, es el hombre elegido por Cristo para ser “la roca” de la Iglesia: “Tú eres Pedro y sobre esta piedra edificaré mi Iglesia” ( Mt 16,16). Aceptó con humildad su misión hasta el final, hasta su muerte como mártir. Su tumba en la Basílica de San Pedro en el Vaticano es meta de millones de peregrinos que llegan de todo el mundo. Pablo, el perseguidor de Cristianos que se convirtió en Apóstol de los gentiles, es un modelo de ardoroso e evangelizador para todos los católicos porque después de encontrarse con Jesús en su camino, se entregó sin reservas a la causa del Evangelio. Misión Estudiar las enseñanzas de la Iglesia sobre la Eucaristía; prepararse con oración para la Misa dominical (o cada día de la semana); y dedicar un tiempo cada semana a la adoración eucarística. Peter Scagnelli, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co. Vivamos la Palabra de Dios Oremos para que se nos conceda caminar por el camino de Cristo y junto a él, cargando nuestra cruz de cada día. Oremos para que podamos entender lo que significa “revestirnos de Cristo” y vivir “en Cristo”, y que tengamos una fe que nos permita conocer a Dios como un Dios amoroso y bondadoso.

MISAS EN ESPAÑOL: SÁBADO 7:00PM Y DOMINGO 1:00PM - AÑO DE LA FE Twelfth Sunday in Ordinary Time www.stanthonyfresno.org For the Ride Home Twelfth Sunday in Ordinary Time June 23, 2013 SCRIPTURE • On that day there shall be ... a fountain to purify from sin and uncleanness. (Zechariah 13:1) • you are my God whom I seek; for you my flesh pines and my soul thirsts (Psalm 63:2) • you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. (Gal 3:27) • "But who do you say that I am?" Peter said in reply, "The Christ of God." (Luke 9:20) REFLECTION • How do you cloth yourself in Christ? • “Who do you say that I am?” What do your words and actions say? • For what do you thirst? We have the choice of two identities: the external mask which seems to be real and which lives by a shadowy autonomy for the brief moment of earthly existence, and the hidden, inner person who seems to us to be nothing, but who can give himself eternally to the truth in whom he subsists. It is this inner self that is taken up into the mystery of Christ, by His love, by the Holy Spirit, so that in secret we live “in Christ.”1 1Thomas Merton, New Seeds of Contemplation, p. 295 For the Ride Home by Ted Bergh © ParishVision LLC 2013 June 23, 2013 WHO DO YOU SAY? In today’s Gospel Jesus asks his disciples, “Who do you say that I am?” (Luke 9:20). Only Peter has the courage to state outright that Jesus is the Messiah—the anointed one—of God. Jesus’ question is one that we have to answer at some point for ourselves if we are to truly live as his disciples today. It is easy to avoid a direct answer, to rely on what someone else has said about Jesus, or just to follow the rules and say the right prayers for years on end, without ever stopping to face this question squarely. Marianne lives in a small-town parish. She says she never thought this question was for her until one day it came up in a Bible study group. “I’d read or heard this passage so many times before, but on this particular day it was as if I were hearing it for the very first time. As I drove home, I knew deep in my heart that I had to acknowledge Jesus as the one whom God had sent into this world for me.” And, she continued, “I knew that if I accepted Jesus as the Lord of my life, there would be consequences!” This started Marianne on a new path. She found a wise and experienced spiritual director and began reviewing her life. “I used to tease one of my friends who wore a ‘What would Jesus do?’ bracelet,” she said, “but suddenly I knew that this is a question that I’ll be asking myself all the time now.” Her life’s challenges haven’t vanished overnight: Marianne cares for her elderly mother and copes with diabetes, but she says, “I trust in God much more these days, and God’s blessing is that I’m so much more openhearted and openhanded with other people than ever before.” Copyright © 2009, World Library Publications. All rights reserved. REFLECTING ON GOD’S WORD The apostles were probably not very different from the rest of their families or their friends. They were not very different from any other Jew of their day. Indeed, given our expectations and hopes for our own leaders, we would not have answered Jesus much differently ourselves. They were waiting for the Messiah to come, and once he came, happy days would be here again. They expected the Messiah or “Anointed One” to come in power and might. He was going to be a liberator like Moses who led God’s people out of slavery, and he was going to be a great king like David, who brought the people of the northern kingdom of Israel and the people of the southern kingdom of Judah into one nation. The Messiah would usher in a new era. It was going to be great! Imagine their surprise when Jesus rebukes Peter for saying that he is “The Christ [Messiah] of God” (Luke 9:20). Then Jesus goes on to say that he must suffer greatly, be rejected by their religious leaders, and be killed—“and on the third day be raised” (9:22). (I wonder if they even heard the last part about being raised.) But worse yet, he goes on to say that they must be willing to deny themselves, take up their cross daily, and follow him. This Messiah would not get many votes, even now. But it is through faith in Christ Jesus, Anointed One of God, that we have become children of God. And we are called to “clothe ourselves with Christ” (see Galatians 3:27). Which is a more pleasant way of saying, “take up [your] cross daily” (Luke 9:23). ~ James A. Wallace, C.SS.R. LIVING GOD’S WORD We pray that we may walk the way of Christ together with Christ, taking up our cross today. We pray to understand what it means to “put on Christ” and to live “in Christ,” and to have that faith that allows us to know God as a loving, gracious God.
