GOSPEL REFLECTION

HOW GOOD IS YOUR SECOND ACT?

I had a drama teacher in college, whose favorite question was: “How good is your second act?” She would ask

this question even before she looked at our script. Many of us aspiring playwrights had a wonderful first act,

well developed and suspenseful, but could not sustain the interest in the second act. She would say, “the first

act can incite curiosity, but the second act must sustain the interest!”

This is also the message of John’s gospel. The multitudes were following Jesus. They wanted miracles.

They wanted to see signs and wonders; water turning to wine, the multiplication of loaves, or else they

wanted healing. But Jesus told them, “You are welcome to follow. But this is only the first act of faith. To have

a deeper, more mature faith, you must join in my work, you must become my disciple.”

This is the significance of the two types of bread: material bread and spiritual bread. Jesus is telling his

followers to move from material hunger to spiritual hunger; to move from the first act to the second; from

being follower to being disciple.

Here is the difference between the follower and the disciple:

A follower asks God to take care of his personal needs; a disciple thinks of community needs.

For a follower, personal agenda comes first; for a disciple, the common good comes first.

For a follower, today it is ‘Yes’, tomorrow it is ‘Maybe’; For a disciple, it is always ‘Yes’.

This was the story of Mary Magdalene (Feast, July 22nd). At first, she was a follower of Jesus. After

Jesus had healed her of an illness, she was ever grateful and became his disciple. She spent all her money,

time and energy on the ministry of Jesus. She remained loyal to the very end, to the cross. She was the First

Witness of the resurrection, she is called ‘Apostle to the apostles’, and the “disciple par excellence”.

Like Mary Magdalene, our faith must move from asking God to take care of our personal needs to

being willing to serve God’s community.

Fr John D’Mello

It is with mixed feelings that we say farewell to Alan. A feeling of sadness to see him go, and yet happiness to

see him putting his needs first. Alan first joined our staff in May of 2008. We had the fortunate opportunity to

see him grow over the years into a valuable member of our team. Most of us who have worked with Alan, have

found him to be a very conscientious, professional, and hard-working individual. Alan’s outgoing and friendly

personality helped to create a pleasant environment to work in and he is held in high regard by his

colleagues. His contributions have been a great benefit to this organization and, undeniably, he will be deeply

missed here. It is definitely our loss and his family’s gain. We have no doubt that wherever Alan’s journey

takes him, he will continue to improve himself as well as enrich the lives of those around him. Let’s all join

together in wishing Alan the very best of luck and the greatest of success in all his future endeavors.

Best wishes,

The Saint Patrick Family

“On Earth We Are Briefly Gorgeous”,

BY OCEAN VUONG

MINISTRIES

Elementary Faith Formation:

This weekly classroom-style religious education is designed to follow the 9:30 am Sunday

Mass so families can attend Mass together and then elementary-age students can attend

Faith Formation sessions immediately after it. This year we will continue using St. Mary’s

Press Discover! Finding Faith in Life, weekly lesson plans. One of the best things about this

program is The Catholic Children’s Bible, which each student will receive. This Scripture text

is translated into kid-friendly terms and accented with pictures and descriptions that bring

to life the relevant Bible stories each week. Classes will begin Sunday, September 12, 2021

First Holy Communion Prep:

This class is designed for students entering into the 2nd grade to prepare for their First Holy

Communion which will take place in the spring of 2022 and First Reconciliation, which

typically takes place in January. Throughout the year they will work through the BLESSED:

First Reconciliation and First Holy Communion Books with characters Ben, Sarah, and their

pet gerbil Hemingway as they learn about how blessed we are to be members of the

largest family in the world.


09

FAITH FORMATION

Middle School Faith Formation:

This year we are excited to launch a hybrid

model of faith formation which blends both

the educational classroom methods with

interactive and relationship-building youth

group methods. We will be following

Lifeteen’s EDGE curriculum with the middle

school students as it provides a safe fun

place for youth to find a solid Catholic

community, to get answers to their

questions about faith, and, most

importantly, to experience Jesus in a

profound and personal way.

Confirmation Prep:

This program is designed for students who are in 8th -12th grade. Like all Sacraments, there

is not a correct age or time to receive a Sacrament but there is some preparation that

needs to complete before taking on the responsibility that comes with the Sacrament.

Here at St. Patrick’s we do require students to be at least in the 8th grade before they begin

preparing for Confirmation but the program is open to anyone in the 8th - 12th grades.

“Chosen: Your Journey Toward Confirmation” takes young people on a journey through the

entire Catholic faith in all its richness and vitality. Teens will be captivated by the story, from

Creation all the way through salvation history, and they will come to see how the

Sacraments, prayer, and discipleship are the keys to a happy life.

A Family of Faith:

We are excited to continue with the Family of

Faith program for those families who wish to

participate. We will meet monthly on the first

Monday of the month with both parents and

students having their own sessions. Parents

will then take homework to complete with

their children before returning the

following month. This year we will be going

over the Sacraments and how they reveal

God’s love to us.

Women’s Bible Study:

Join the Women of our parish as we come together to explore and grow deeper in our faith.

This fall we will be meeting weekly on Tuesday evenings from 7:00 – 9:00 pm.

We will begin after Labor Day in the Fall.


10

FAITH FORMATION

Homeschool Scripture Class:

This year I am looking forward to hosting

God’s Plan in Scripture (GPS) which is based

on “The Great Adventure Kids Bible Timeline”

for students who are homeschooled. God’s

Plan in Scripture (GPS) is a parish program

designed to take children on an amazing

journey through the story of salvation. The

Storybook helps children and families learn

the Bible together using the same color-

coding and chronological approach as the

adult Great Adventure Bible Timeline®.

The School of Christian Formation:

The School of Christian Formation for the Diocese of Palm Beach is offering a series of

classes and programs here for adult Catholics who wish to learn more about the rich

traditions of their Faith. Each course meets on Tuesday

evenings from 7:00- 9:00 pm for a total of six classes. Two courses are taught during the fall

and two during the spring. You may attend individual courses for credit or follow the entire

three-year program. This year we will be doing an overview of the Bible with four courses

over the academic year. They will include:

Introduction to the Bible with Diane Kent – August 17th - September 21st

Old Testament with Fr. John D’Mello – October 12th – November 16th

New Testament with Patti Amann – January 4th- February 8th

Christology with Andrea Cook – Feb 22nd – Mar 29th

Young Women’s Study Group:

Endow (Educating on the Nature and

Dignity of Women) seeks to educate

women toward a more profound

understanding of their God-given dignity

through study in small group communities

of faith and friendship. Rooted in the

teachings of Pope St. John Paul II, Endow

affirms the genius of women – the feminine

genius – and empowers them to fulfill our

culture’s desperate need for an authentic

feminine presence in every aspect of life and

society. We meet Bi-Weekly on Tuesday

evenings from 7:30-9:00 pm. Ongoing.

Men’s Morning Bible Study:

The Parish Bible Study for men provides an opportunity for increased spiritual growth.

The study will focus on the upcoming Sunday Mass readings and how they might apply

to our love today. Our meetings last approximately one hour and will be held on

Wednesdays at 9:30 am. There is no cost and nothing to purchase. The studies are being

coordinated by Deacon Joe with assistance from others. We hope all men of the parish

will take advantage of this hour to grow in faith and fellowship as we continue to

build up the community of St. Patrick. Ongoing

FAITH FORMATION

Adult Faith Formation - THE SEARCH:

As Catholics, we know life is a beautiful

mystery. Now explore the depths of that

mystery and what it means for you. What is

this journey in between the event we call

“birth” and the one we call “death”? Is the

journey taking you somewhere, or are you

leading yourself to some kind of destination –

a destination that could extend beyond your

last breath? What do you want from your life

during the in-between? The questions are

there. And, the answers are too. Join us on

Wednesday evenings from 7:00-8:30 as we

explore life’s big questions.

The Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA):

Are you looking to join the Catholic Church? Do you want to receive the Sacraments of

Initiation? (Baptism, Holy Communion or Confirmation) Or are you a cradle Catholic

looking to learn more about the Catholic Church and grow deeper in your faith? If you fit

any of these, RCIA might be a good place for you to start. It is a journey in which you

experience support, discovery, and fellowship. It is for any adult who is looking to start or

deepen their faith journey by preparing to receive any of the Sacraments of Initiation or for

anyone who is looking to learn more about their Catholic faith and grow deeper in it.

Classes at St Patrick's are held on Thursday Evenings from 7:00 - 8:30 pm September – May.

Adult Virtual Faith Formation:

After this past year many of our parishioners

enjoyed participating in an online group

session and so we are going to continue

offering one this next year. Join us as we

learn more about our faith through dynamic

video presentations and small group

discussions. This fall we will be diving into

Augustin Institutes’ “Symbolon”. “Symbolon:

The Catholic Faith Explained” is a systematic

presentation of our Catholic Faith. It will lead

you through the "big picture" of the Catholic

Faith and our Creed is the guide. “Symbolon”

brings together some of the most trusted

Catholic teachers in the world to guide you

through the breadth and richness of the

Catholic faith.


12

SUPPORTING THE PARISH

Families with Tots:

All families with children under 6 years

old are invited to join us for a time of

family fellowship. We hope this new Faith

Formation session will be an opportunity

for families to bond and grow healthy,

fun, and supportive relationships for our

parish home! We will meet on the second

Saturday of each month at 9:30 am. Each

session is for the whole family and we will

be diving deeper into ways to grow in our

faith for tots to parents.

Panorama of the Old Testament:

Explore the sweeping saga of God's

people and their sacred journey.

Panorama of the Old Testament surveys

the variety of books found in the Old

Testament. Uncover interwoven themes,

the background of familiar characters,

and God's overall plan of salvation. A

perfect way to begin a great adventure or

step back and see where you have been

in your study of the Bible. Commentary,

study and reflection questions, prayer,

and access to online lectures are

included. Presented by Deacon Bob

Rodriguez, a guest teacher from a local

Diocesan Parish.

PEACE—ST. PATRICK JUSTICE MINISTRY

SVdP was able to assist a disabled woman with a disabled son last week. This woman was

financially unable to put her car back on the road, so SVdP paid for her car repair,

as well as her auto insurance and registration.

Another disabled woman with a disabled daughter fell behind on her electric bill when

she needed to replace a broken refrigerator. She had no money left over for FPL, so SVdP

paid her electric bill so she was not in danger of having her power shut off.

AROUND THE COMMUNITY

My Grandparents’ Journey

My niece and I have been

working on our family genealogy. My

mother was a first-generation

American and ancestors on my

father’s side arrived in the 1860s. All of

them came because there were not

enough jobs in their homeland and

survival was a problem. At that time

there were no restrictions or quotas –

only a sponsor and a cursory medical

exam on arrival was required.

Today we are faced with

another stream of immigrants who,

like my forebears, come to find a

better life and future. However, now

we have restrictive quotas of who

and how many can enter from other

countries. For some the wait list is 20

years. Others have come on visas and

overstayed their time; which is the

vast majority of those so-called

"illegal," even though they have been

here for years working, paying taxes,

and educating their children.

Employers hire them because of the

shortage of workers in low-wage jobs.

Many are deported and families are

split up because they have no avenue

to citizenship. They suffer prejudice

and discrimination.

The Florida Council of

Catholic Bishops (2011) have

challenged us to re-think our views

and attitudes on immigration. The

Bishops do not endorse illegal

immigration, but suggest that we

need to find ways and means to

support a temporary worker program

that eventually leads to permanent

residency. They call for an “attitude

change” and a reform of the “entire

system” rather than merely enforcing

the border. They suggest that we

stop looking at the undocumented

as second-class citizens.

Recently, the U.S. Senate held

a hearing on “The American Dream

and Promise Act” which would

establish a legal pathway to

citizenship for Dreamers. You can

reach out to your senators to support

this bill.

The Auxiliary Bishop of

Washington, Mario Dorsonville, in his

Statement to the Senate Committee

on the Judiciary said: "In addressing

the root causes of migration we need

compassion: protecting those forced

to migrate, and simultaneously

ensuring the humane treatment of

those migrants already living in the

U.S.”

KIDS CORNER

YEAR OF ST. JOSEPH 12/8/2020 TO 12/8/2021

Artisan Breads

Some of the most typical “artistic”

breads are:

�� The Latin Cross: The ultimate

symbol of our Lord’s suffering

and salvation.

�� The Bambino: The baby Jesus to

whom St. Joseph was foster

father.

�� St. Joseph’s Staff: Legend has it

that St. Joseph’s staff blossomed

into a lily, a symbol both of life

and death.

�� St. Joseph’s Purse: This symbol is

a reminder to give alms to the

poor during Lent.

�� A Sheaf of Wheat: Wheat is a

reminder that, when a single,

tiny grain of wheat falls into the

ground and dies, it bears much

more food at harvest time—and

that the early spring harvest of

greens is almost here.

�� St. Joseph himself: He is always

represented in profile and

hunched over with a cane,

symbolizing that he was

(according to tradition) an old

man, while Mary was a much

younger woman.

�� St. Joseph’s Beard: This is

actually just the Sheaf of Wheat

turned upside down, but young

children delight when their

fathers and grandfathers hold

their beard up to their face. It is

another reminder of Joseph’s

wisdom and old age.

�� Heart: A symbol of devotion to

the Sacred Heart of Jesus and

the Immaculate Heart of Mary

that flourished throughout Italy

in general and Sicily in particular

in the 19th century.

�� The Crown of Thorns: This is in

remembrance of Christ’s passion

and a reminder that, despite the

day’s feasting among Lent’s

fasting, Lent is still a season of

sorrow—but of hope, too!

Diocesan Prayer for Protection From Storms

and Illness

God our Father, Creator of the Universe and Lord over all

creation, we humbly stand before you as your children in

thanksgiving for your loving care and protection. We ask

that you keep us safe from all hurricanes and illness

which may threaten us in the coming seasons. Protect us from all fear and anxiety and

give us ardent trust and hope in Your love and mercy. You alone have the power to

command the sea, the wind, and the rain. You alone bring peace, calm, and safety.

Father, we thank you in advance, for you are our only Refuge. We ask this through Christ,

Your Son, Who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, God, forever and ever. Amen.

Mary, Queen of the Apostles, and Patroness of our Diocese, pray for us.
