16th Sunday in Ordinary Time Sunday, July, 17th, 2016
Evening of Prayer for Vocations August 15, 2016 6:30 PM
Seminarian Rory Traynor would like to invite you to join him and Our Lady of The Miraculous Medal Parish in an evening of prayer for an increase in vocations to the priesthood and religious life.
6:30 PM: Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament and Divine Mercy Chaplet
7:00 PM: Holy Mass for the Feast of the Assumption, with Vocation talk from a Seminarian.
Immediately after Mass please join us for light refreshments and a chance to meet the seminarians.
Location: Our Lady of The Miraculous Medal Parish, 289 Lafayette Road, Hampton, NH.
16th Sunday in Ordinary Time "Martha, Martha, you are anxious and worried about many things. There is need of only one thing." Martha was caught up in a whirlwind of her own making. She stressed herself out with all the tasks and chores she thought she had to do to host Jesus, but Jesus wasn't the one who expected all of that. He just wanted Martha's presence, her company and friendship. His only expectation was that Martha would prepare for him her heart, but she was fixated on preparing her home instead.
How often do we create a similar whirlwind in our lives? How often do we fixate on external details, on making a good impression, on having all appearances looking just so, but forget what really matters? How often do we make ourselves "anxious and worried" about all we think we have to do? In today's Gospel Je-sus calls us to stop the frenetic activity of our lives, to pause and listen, imitating Mary "who sat beside the Lord at his feet listening to him speak."
This can seem impossible. We look at our calendars and our to-do lists and cannot find a single slot in which to squeeze quiet prayer or silent spiritual listening. But Jesus asks us to reorganize our priorities. He tells us, "There is need of only one thing." Really, Jesus? Have you seen our lists!? What can we possibly eliminate? Don't we need to do all of this?
The Lord says no. What we need to do is to make time to be with him. The same Lord who turned water into wine and fed five thousand men with five loaves of bread and two fish can also multiply our time. So instead of being like Martha who tried to tell Jesus what to do-"Tell her to help me"-let's be like Mary who listened to what Jesus had to say.
NEW! Young Adult Ministry As a young adult we often find ourselves wondering where our faith fits into our daily lives. With the hustle and bustle of school, work, family, and friends, we find it difficult to find the time to foster our relationship with God. So if you are a young adult (18-35) who is looking for a space where you can connect with other young adults, and learn more about what the Catholic Church teaches and why we profess what we do, we invite you to join us for lunch on July 24th after the 11am Mass. We will share a bit of what a young adult group is and how you can get more involved with this new ministry, all topped off with some delicious food!
For more information please contact Wendy Ramirez by phone 603-882-4362 ext. 203 or by email
Do not let anyone look down on you because you are young, but be an example for the believers in your speech, your conduct, your love, and purity.
- 1 Timothy 4:12

16º Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario Este domingo la primera lectura nos narra la misteriosa visita de tres personajes que llegan a la tienda de Abraham el que se desvive por atenderlos, su hospitalidad es de primera clase. Se preocupa de recibir a sus visitantes con un suculento banquete desde que llegan su actitud de servicio y disponibilidad son asombrosos. El centro fundamental de la narración es la promesa del hijo. ¿Qué podemos aprender de Abraham sobre la hospitalidad? ¿Cómo implementarla en nuestras comunidades multiculturales? Si al menos hoy nos detuviéramos un poquito en ver la manera de cómo nos tratamos los unos a los otros en el aspecto de la hospitalidad -dejaríamos de hacer mal al prójimo y respetaríamos al vecino. ¡Viviríamos en paz y armonía! En el relato del Evangelio, se nos narra otro aspecto relacionado con la hospitalidad a partir del contraste entre las personalidades de las dos hermanas que reciben a Jesús en su casa. María contempla, Marta actúa. Ambas acciones son buenas, pero, deben tener balance. Hay un dicho popular que dice: "Ni tanto que queme al santo ni tanto que no lo alumbre". Es decir, las preocupaciones de la vida no deben ahogar la semilla de la Palabra de Dios, el vivir siempre en acción, en este caso, impide ver las cosas bellas del Reino. Lo importante de estas lecturas es que tomemos en cuenta lo siguiente. Recibir al Señor que pasa en cada acontecimiento de la vida. Reconocer su presencia en cada uno de nuestros hermanos y hermanas. Saber que siempre el Señor nos acoge en su casa si hay arrepentimiento. ¡Teniendo a Jesús en casa, nada más es necesario!
¡NUEVO! Grupo de Jovenes Adultos
Como jóvenes adultos, a veces cuestionamos el lugar que Dios tiene en nuestras vidas. Entre la escuela, el trabajo, la familia, y nuestros amigos, muchas veces se nos dificulta encontrar tiempo para crear una relación más cercana con Dios. Si tu eres un joven adulto, de entre 18 y 35 años, y estas buscando un lugar donde puedas conectarte con otros jóvenes, donde puedes aprender mas de lo que la Iglesia Católica nos enseña, y por qué profesamos lo que profesamos, acompáñanos este 24 de julio después de la misa de 11am. Tendremos una pequeña convivencia en donde hablaremos sobre: qué es un grupo de jóvenes adultos y cómo puedes involucrarte en este nuevo ministerio, todo, acompañado por un delicioso almuerzo! Para obtener mas información por favor contacte a Wendy Ramírez al teléfono al 603-882-4362 ext. 203 o al correo

Segunda Colecta:
Apoyando a Parroquias en NH Éste fin de semana habrá una segunda colec-ta en la cual podremos apoyar a parroquias de New Hampshire que tienen dificultades en cubrir los costos de cada semana.
Gracias por su generosidad.
No dejes que te critiquen por ser joven. Trata de ser el modelo de los creyentes por
tu manera de hablar, tu conducta, tu Caridad, tu fe, y tu vida irreprochable.
- 1 Timoteo 4:12
