15th Sunday in Ordinary Time
GOSPEL MEDITATION - ENCOURAGE DEEPER UNDERSTANDING OF SCRIPTURE
Using the best seeds doesn’t always guarantee the best plants. An older Italian
gentleman straight from Italy gave me these amazing tomato seeds that he
claimed produced the best tomatoes ever grown. Without doubt, the fruit he
shared with me was a testament to that fact. These tomatoes were amazing! I
couldn’t wait until the next growing season to plant these seeds and harvest my
own tomatoes. The whole experiment ended up a failure. I did everything the
gentleman said, but my fruit didn’t even come close. What happened? At first I
was perplexed, then some years later the light dawned. The problem wasn’t the
seeds, it was the soil!
You cannot sow seeds in any old place and in a haphazard way and expect them
to be at their best. It doesn’t work that way. Planting the seeds is the easiest
part. Preparing the soil is the challenge. Tilling, mulching, enriching, and building
up the nutrients are all required for good fruit. Then after the seeds are planted,
more care is required in order to maintain that healthy, nutrient rich
environment for those seeds to sprout, grow, and flourish. God happily sows the
seeds of his Word. What do we do with them?
If we expect to be a passive bystander and have good fruit magically grow, we
are mistaken. Bearing the good fruit of God’s Word requires preparation and
work. We have to cultivate the soil of our lives so that those seeds can find a
proper home. This one thing alone takes a great deal of patience, time, and
effort. What kind of preparation have we put into our lives so that we can be a
recipient of God’s seed? It takes a great deal of soul-searching and ego-checking
to properly prepare. God is the ever faithful and persistent sower. If the seeds
do not bear fruit the first time, God will come back time and time again, giving it
another try.
If we have created suitable beds for sowing, then once the seed is sown, we
must properly maintain them. What is our maintenance plan for the seeds of
God’s Word? We need not only a source for water but a watering schedule. We
need to weed, aerate the soil, nurture the young plants, protect them, and
provide proper nutrients. What does our spiritual maintenance plan look like? If
we have done all things well, imagine what the seeds of God’s Word could
produce in us!

Respond to the
2020 Census Online
The 2020 census is here and it’s your
chance to shape your community’s
future. You can respond online using a mobile phone,
tablet or computer - even if you haven’t received your
census invitation. Responding is as easy as 1-2-3.

Civilize It
The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) has launched a campaign inviting Catholics to model civility and love for neighbor throughout the year. Civilize It: Dignity Beyond the Debate will ask Catholics to pledge civility, clarity, and compassion in their families, communities, and parishes, and call on others to do so as well. Find out more information and resources to share with your community at CivilizeIt.org.
Tips for Engaging in Civil Dialogue:
1. Listen first and seek to understand the whole picture.
2. Ask questions for clarification.
3. Use ‘I’ statements; pay attention to body language.
4. Listen to what feelings are present and pay attention to how you respond.
5. Summarize what you’ve heard and ask for feedback.
As Catholics, our strong tradition of social teaching compels us to be actively engaged in the building up of our communities. What is needed is good, honest, civil dialogue. Engaging in civil dialogue can help our faith communities create a new space to model love for our neighbors and respect for the dignity of all.

REFLECT ON READINGS FOR JULY 12
FIRST READING
The prophet Isaiah assured the captive Israelites exiled in
Babylon that God’s word is reliable and purposeful. Does
this bring you comfort or distress?
SECOND READING
Paul speaks of a spiritual connection and yearning for
freedom (redemption) shared between us and creation
itself. What do you think a redeemed creation looks like?
GOSPEL READING
Why do you think Jesus explains the parable of the sower
to his disciples but not to the crowds?
SACRED HEART
FIRST FRIDAY MEMORIAL
We are now receiving requests for the “Sacred Heart First
Friday Memorial” program for next year beginning August
7th. Parishioners and friends are invited to enroll their
beloved dead to have them remembered in prayer in a
special way. The deceased who are enrolled will be listed
monthly in the parish bulletin throughout the year from
August - July. They will also be remembered in the Mass
intention of the First Friday of each month at Our Lady.
Parishioners of St. Ann and Our Lady may enroll deceased
individuals or deceased families. Prayer envelopes are
available at the doors.
15th Sunday in Ordinary Time
“The seed sown among thorns is the one who hears the word but then the cares of the world and the lure of riches choke the word and it bears no fruit.” - Matthew 13:22
Does the lure of riches and material goods choke God out
of your life? Are you so caught up in earthly activities that
you have no time for God? Gratitude and generosity are
virtues that we should strive to live out on a daily basis.
Every decision we make either takes us one step closer to
God or one step further away. What we receive at Mass
every Sunday should be shared with others all the other
days of the week as well.
