ANOINTING OF THE SICK
The Anointing of the Sick is not a sacrament for those only
who are at the point of death. Hence, as soon as anyone of the
faithful begins to be in danger of death from sickness or old age,
the fitting time for him to receive this sacrament has certainly
already arrived. (CCC 1514)
If a person is in need of Anointing of the Sick, please call the
parish office for a priest at 602-242-1300.
If the parish office is closed and there is an immediate danger
of death, please call the after-hours emergency number at
602-246-3534. The after-hours number may only be used for life
and death emergencies.
UNCIÓN DE LOS ENFERMOS
La Unción de los Enfermos no es un sacramento sólo para aquellos
que están a punto de morir. Por eso, se considera tiempo oportuno
para recibirlo cuando el fiel empieza a estar en peligro de muerte
por enfermedad o vejez. (CCC 1514).
Si una persona necesita la Unción de los Enfermos, por favor llame
a la oficina parroquial para un sacerdote al 602-242-1300.
Si la oficina parroquial está cerrada y hay peligro de muerte, por
favor llame al número de emergencia después de horas de oficina
al 602-246-3534. Este número sólo se puede utilizar para casos de
emergencia de vida o muerte.

Have you, a friend or family member ever ask: What’s the purpose of my life? What’s my
mission? Is there more to life than this? Can I really have a relationship with Jesus?
TRY ALPHA
What is Alpha?
Alpha creates an environment to explore
life and the Christian faith in a friendly,
nonnon-judging and informal environment.
Be our guest. Bring a friend.
If you know anyone who does not know God or
wants to know more about how they can have a
personal relationship with Jesus, please invite
them to join us on Alpha. The farther they are
from God, the happier we will be to welcome
them and offer them a place to belong even if
they don’t believe.

SAFE ENVIRONMENT TRAINING
IT’S THAT TIME AGAIN... FOR RENEWALS
For all employees and volunteers
It is the responsibility of everyone — clergy,
administrators, teachers, staff, as well as all of our
committed volunteers — to help create a safe
environment for all of our children.
As part of that commitment, we are all asked to
complete Safe Environment Training once each year
(July 1-June 30). July 1 marks the beginning of the new
Safe Environment Training year. All volunteers and
staff are required to take a foundation or renewal
class by September 15th in order to continue
serving in their apostolate at Ss. Simon & Jude
Cathedral.
New volunteers need to complete the 3 hour Called
to Protect Foundation class. New volunteers may
choose to do this class at any location or you may
choose to take a class we are offering at SSJ on
Saturday, September 10, 2016 from 9:00 a.m.–
12:00 p.m. and Monday September 12, 2016 from
6:00 p.m. –9:00 p.m.
All current volunteers who have already completed
the 3 hour Call to Protect Foundation class need to
complete a renewal class. The renewal class lasts
about 30-45 minutes and volunteers may choose to
register for a class at a particular location or
complete their renewal online.
To register for either the foundation or renewal class,
please go to: www.safeenvironmenttraining.org. Click
on homepage and then online renewal. After your
class, you will have to wait for a confirmation before
logging off the site. To attend a class you click on
classes to see where classes are being given.

A TESTIMONY FROM AN
SSJ ADORER
“If I wanted my relationships to improve
with others, it had to start with me showing
up to the One who created me and knows
my inmost being. “
“The name of the Lord is a strong tower, the
righteous run into it and are safe.” - Proverbs 18:10
Being in the presence of our Lord Jesus in Eucharistic
Adoration is where He has become my strong tower and safe
haven. I am grateful for the people the Lord has place in my
life that have shown me the beauty of Eucharistic Adoration.
It’s been through their witness and encouragement that I’ve
been able to take the steps in spending time with Jesus in
Adoration. One of those witnesses is our very own Sr. Gabby.
One time at a Mom’s Retreat, Sr. Gabby shared about the
importance of spending time with Jesus. Her
recommendation to us busy mother’s was to “stop in and
make a visit”. It is in making brief visits with our Lord in the
Tabernacle that it all began.
It started ten minutes here and ten minutes there
and before I knew it 10 minutes turned into 20 minutes and
then 60 minutes and eventually a commitment once a week
for an hour. All the Lord was asking me to do was “show
up”. If I wanted my relationships to improve with others, it
had to start with me showing up to the one who created me
and knows my inmost being. Spending time with the Lord in
Adoration became a safe place, where I could be free from
all the cares and worries of the world. It is the place I can run
to in the midst of fear and anxiety. It’s the place I go to place
all the prayer requests of others. As I began to show up with
Jesus, something happened, Jesus showed up to me.
Jesus calls to each one of us to “Come away with
me”. We have the greatest place to go in the very midst of
every Catholic Church. Listen to the still small voice within
and “stop in and make a visit with the Lord”. Our Lord Jesus
always calls us to himself. Are you ready and willing to say
yes to the call?
Lynn has been a wife to Peter for 21 years.
They have 3 boys and have been active at
SSJ since 1988.
We are currently in need of Adorers for the following hours:
Saturday: 12:00 midnight – 1:00 a.m.
Sunday: 12:00 midnight – 1:00 a.m.
Wednesday 2:00 a.m. - 3:00 a.m.
If you feel a tug on your heart to fulfill one of these hours,
please call the parish office at (602) 242242-1300 so we can
schedule you. You won’t regret it!

SOLEMNITY OF THE ASSUMPTION

LA SOLEMNIDAD DE LA ASUNCIÓN
The Solemnity of the Assumption is the celebration of Mary
being assumed, body and soul, into heaven. As Catholics
we celebrate this Solemnity as a foretaste of our own
bodily resurrection at the end of time.
Since The Assumption (August 15th) falls on a Monday this
year, it is not a Holy Day of Obligation in the United
States. All parishioners are invited to still attend Mass
Monday, August 15th at 6:15 a.m. and 8:30 a.m.

La Solemnidad de la Asunción es la celebración de María
quien fue asumida en cuerpo y alma al cielo. Como
Católicos celebramos esta Solemnidad como un anticipo
de nuestra propia resurrección corporal al final de los
tiempos.
Debido que La Asunción (15 de agosto) cae en lunes este
año, no es un día de precepto en los Estados Unidos.
Todos los feligreses están invitados a asistir a Misa el lunes,
15 de agosto a las 6:15 a.m. y 8:30 a.m.

VIVIR LA LITURGIA INSPIRACIÓN DE LA SEMANA

cosas que no se pueden ver. Esperamos que nuestro
Señor regrese en su gloria, y somos llamados a estar

with others, it had to start with me
showing up to the One who created me
and knows my inmost being. “
"El nombre del Señor es torre fuerte, a ella corre el
justo y está a salvo" - Proverbios 18:10
El estar en la presencia de nuestro Señor Jesús en la
Adoración Eucarística, es donde él se ha convertido en mi
torre fuerte y refugio seguro. Estoy agradecida por las
personas que el Señor ha puesto en mi vida y quienes me
han mostrado la belleza de la Adoración Eucarística. A
través de su testimonio y de su ánimo, es que tomé los pasos
para pasar tiempo con Jesús en la Adoración. Uno de esos
testigos es nuestra Hna. Gabby. En un Retiro para Mamás,
la Hna. Gabby compartió acerca de la importancia de pasar
tiempo con Jesús. Su recomendación para nosotras las
madres ocupadas era de "hacer una visita." Al hacer visitas
breves con nuestro Señor en el Tabernáculo fue cuando todo
empezó.
Empezé con diez minutos aquí y diez minutos allá, y
antes de que me diera cuenta, los 10 minutos se convirtieron
en 20 minutos y después en 60 minutos y finalmente, un
compromiso de una hora a la semana. Todo lo que el Señor
me pedía que hiciera era que viniera. Si quería que mi
relación con los demás mejorara, tuve que empezar
presentándome con el que me creó y quien conoce mi ser. El
pasar tiempo con el Señor en Adoración se convirtió en un
lugar seguro, en el que podía estar libre de todas las
preocupaciones del mundo. Es el lugar en el que puedo
acudir en medio del temor y la ansiedad. Es el lugar al que
voy a colocar todas las peticiones de oración de los demás. A
medida que empecé a ir con Jesús, algo sucedió, Jesús vino a
mí. Jesús nos dice a cada uno de nosotros "Vengan conmigo".
Tenemos el mejor lugar para ir en cada Iglesia
Católica. Escuchen la pequeña voz y "visiten al Señor".
Nuestro Señor Jesús siempre nos llama a sí mismo. ¿Estás
listo y dispuesto a decir sí a la llamada?
