FROM THE PASTOR
ARMADA FAIR – ST. MARY’S FOOD BOOTH Welcome to family and friends to St. Mary Mystical Rose and those who
are vendors, visitors, at the Armada Fair!
The Fair begins August 13th-19th, 2018, and what an exciting event to relax, walk around, enjoy the rides, activities, and yes, delicious food!
You heard me right—FOOD! Our Parish St. Mary Mystical Rose has it’s
major fundraising and we have a Food Booth in the Fair!
We NEED all our Parish families and friends to help out at our Food
Booth! It is a joyful time to get to know each other, wish each other JOY
and PEACE, and SELL our HEAVENLY CHICKEN!!!
Sign-up sheets are located at the lower level of Fr. Sysol’s Narthex,
on the St. Mary Mystical Rose FACEBOOK, or on our St. Mary Mysti-
cal Rose WEBSITE. SHIFTS are running from 7am-11am; 11am—3:00pm; 3:00pm—7:00pm; 7:00pm—11pm, every day of the FAIR.
Please sign-up on a shift or two. It is also a FUN TIME and a JOYFUL
TIME to see families involvement and friends involvement to the fund-
raising of our Parish! THANK YOU IN ADVANCE—YOU ARE ALL
NEEDED!
SOLEMNITY FEAST OF THE ASSUMPTION OF MOTHER MARY August 14th -- 7pm Vigil Mass & August 15th – 9:00am Mass Tuesday, August 14th, we will have a Vigil Mass for the Assumption of
Mother Mary at 7:00pm, and the Morning Mass, Wednesday, August
15th, at 9:00am.
The Solemnity Feast of the Assumption of Mary is the day of obligation
to our Catholic Faith. All the faithful are encouraged to participate and
attend the liturgy on these days.
Our wonderful Parish is named after the holy name of Mary, the Mysti-
cal Rose of God or the fragrance of the heavenly realm of God. Mother
Mary is interceding, praying, and the protector of Her children and we
are embraced under her mantle of love!
August is the month of Mother Mary, and I would encourage each and
every one of our Parish families to pray the Rosary every day and reflect
on God’s call in your life. Are you living out your call as an evangelizer
and as a joyful missionary disciple of Christ in your family, community,
and in the world today?
No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draw him, and I will raise him on the last day, (John 6:41-51). In today’s holy Gospel according to John, we hear from the Galileans,
the religious authorities, “the Jews,” rejected eternal life in the first place.
They weighted matters to merely human standards and human values
instead of listening attentively to Jesus’ message. They knew Jesus up-
bringing as just as a carpenter’s son, and they knew of His humble begin-
nings in Nazareth.
How could a simple and unknown tradesman possibly be God’s messen-
ger? The legitimate question is do we reject God’s message because we
do not care for the messenger? The authorities disregarded the message
because of Gods eloquent message came by means of the Galilean car-
penter.
Listening to God consists of silence. To hear God in the silence we will
hear Him in our hearts—beyond the words, and changing our attitude or
the conversion of the heart in gratitude to God!
Pray to the Holy Spirit to “draw” you closer to the heart of God. Open up
your heart and be quiet for He is speaking to you in the “silence.” God
bless you and have a wonderful week!
Enjoy the Armada Fair and SERVE with a SMILE at our Food Booth!
See you there.
Have a wonderful week!
Fr. George Patauave
