Nineteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Next Week’s Readings20th Sunday in Ordinary TimeFirst Reading: Jeremiah 38:4-6, 8-10
Second Reading: Hebrews 13:1-4Gospel: Luke 12:49-53
First Reading: Wisdom 18:6-9We look back to the original Passover, when the Jews had foreknowledge of what would happen and instructions on how to avoid the vengeance of the Angel of Death. The fate of the Egyptians stood in stark contrast to that of the Jews.
Second Reading: Hebrews 11:1-2,8-19This reading centers on faith. Like the Jews in the 1st reading, Abraham had faith in what was promised by God. In the 1st reading, it was freedom from the Egyp-tians. In this reading, it recalls God’s promise of a great nation of descendants - even if Abraham was willing to sacrifice his son, Isaac.
Gospel: Luke 12:32-48You also must be prepared, for at an hour you do not expect, the Son of Man will come. The message in this reading is clear: we must always be ready for our time of judgment and we must always be vigilant so that we can properly discern the Will of God and occupy ourselves with doing it.
From the Desk of the Pastor August 7, 2016No Vacation from Sunday Mass
During the summer, parents understandably want to get an early start on enjoying their Sundays by visiting relatives, enjoying the recreational places in our community, or just traveling. However, let us never forget the importance of Sunday Mass each week. It is easy to fall into the temptation of just letting Sunday Mass slip by. “We are too busy today,” or “we’ll make Mass next week,” can become easy excuses. This is a special plea to parents to make sure their families come to Mass every Sunday. Make time for Mass. Children cannot drive themselves. It is hard to believe that our churches can feel so empty of young people during the summer because so many are not brought to Mass. Plan your weekend around the Mass. In fact, it is good to come early before setting out for your Sunday journey and pray for a safe trip. Remember, if you are occupied all day Sunday, come to the 5:00 PM Mass on Saturday at Immaculate Conception or the 4:00 PM Mass on Saturday at Assumption. We also have a weekly 5:00 PM Mass on Sunday afternoon at Immaculate Conception. With 8 Masses in our Parish that span over 24 hours – there is always a convenient time.
Children also enjoy visiting a new Catholic Church if they are away from Tuckahoe and Eastchester. Par-ents, remember that you are always giving your children a message: either the message that Sunday Mass is the most important thing your family does, or the message that Sunday Mass is not important.
When you go away on vacation, or if you are traveling on business, you need not worry about finding a local church and times, visit www.masstimes.org.
Vacations are meant to be enjoyed; but there is never a vacation from Sunday Mass.
Father Anthony Domenic Sorgie

Changes to Our Parish Web Site MenusThe menus for our parish web site have been changed. The changes include the order of menu items as well as the options. The most noticeable change has been the combining of the churches and cemetery into one top-level name: Parish Churches & Cemetery. This under-scores the fact that we are now one parish.
Our bulletin archive can now be found under both the Home and the Info menu items.
If you have bookmarked any of our web pages, please know that all of your bookmarks will continue to work. We have simply made certain items easier to locate.
If you haven’t visited our new Stewardship page yet, now is a good time to take a look. It can still be found under the Info menu.

The Church which Christ founded has not only preserved the Word He spoke, and the wonders he wrought; it has also taken Him seriously when He said:
“Do this for a commemoration of me.”
... And that action whereby we re-enact His Death on the Cross is the Sacrifice of the Mass, in which we do as a memorial what He did at the Last Supper as the prefiguration of His Passion.
Hence the Mass is to us the crowning act of Christian worship. A pulpit in which the words of our Lord are repeated does not unite us to Him; a choir in which sweet sentiments are sung brings us no closer to His Cross than to His garments. A temple without an altar of sacri-fice is non-existent among primitive peoples, and is meaningless among Christians. And so in the Catholic Church the altar, and not the pulpit or the choir or the organ, is the center of wor-ship, for there is reenacted the memorial of His Passion. Its value does not depend on him who says it, or on him who hears it; it depends on Him who is the One High Priest and Victim, Je-sus Christ our Lord.

From the Parish Nurse
Back to SchoolParasites
When we think about going back to school, the first thought that enters our minds prob-ably isn’t the pests in the playground or the
dorm room. It’s important to be armed with the facts about some of the typical parasites that invade
the common spaces of schools, dorms, off campus housing and playgrounds.
Bed BugsBed bugs have become increasingly common in recent years. They are insects that feed on warm-blooded ani-mals (your son or daughter) and are found world-wide. Typically found in rooms where people sleep, hatchlings are about the size of a poppy seed. Adults are about ¼ inch in length. They feed mostly at night when your stu-dent is tucked soundly into bed. Their bites resemble a mosquito bite and can cause a mild to intense allergic reaction.Bed bugs have flat bodies and therefore can tuck them-selves into crevices, around clutter, in a bed-frame, mat-tress, and box spring. They also will make a home in luggage, furniture, clothes, pillows, behind molding, in curtains, and behind loose wallpaper. They can go for months without feeding, and therefore can be found in vacant or “clean” apartments.A few suggestions for reducing your risk of infestations:
� Inspect your apartment thoroughly for any signs of infestation.
� Reduce the clutter in your apartment. � Clean (even a vacant or clean apartment) thoroughly:• scrub likely areas with a stiff brush to dislodge
eggs;• vacuum entire apartment, mattress and box
spring;• dismantle and clean bed frame;• remove and clean dresser, drawers, and underside
of dresser;• encase mattress and box spring in special mat-
tress covers;• pull bed frame away from walls;• tuck in sheets and blankets so they do not touch
the floor;• place bed legs in a dish of mineral oil;• caulk and seal pipes, floors, walls and anywhere
there are crevices or holes.

49. When we were young we always abstained from eating meat on Fridays. Is this practice to be observed only during Lent, or on all Fridays throughout the year? At the request of the United States Conference of Cath-olic Bishops, U.S. Catholics were granted a variance from the general rule of abstaining from meat on Fridays out-side of Lent. Instead of abstaining from meat, Catholics may perform some other act of penance. However, Friday abstinence remains the norm for much of the world.
Personally, I would rather continue the traditional ab-stinence, in fellowship with Catholics down through the centuries, than having to invent some alternate penance every Friday.
If you have questions about any aspect of our Catholic Church and Faith, just drop us a note or call and we will answer them to the best of our ability.

AttentionRecently Married Parishioners
Many individuals who have recently married continue to be registered parishioners as part of their parents’ families, even if the parish is not the one they currently attend. Often they plan to move in the not-too-distant future and do not want to initiate a change until that decision has been made. Couples who do live in the parish and want to be registered as a new family should call the rectory or register online at our parish web site: www.assumption-immaculate.org.
