Born: January 8, 1943 Entered Religious Life: August 11, 1961 Entered Eternal Life: August 16, 2019

Sister Mary Lyn was blessed with a gentle spirit and a fine sense of humor. She enjoyed teaching the "little ones" and worked well with others in the school setting.

ORDINATION OF CHARLES IMMORDINO

This Saturday, September 7, 2019, 11:00 AM, St. Lucie Parish will rejoice with Charles Immordino as he is ordained by Bishop Barbarito to the Deaconate! St. Lucie parishioners are welcome to attend Charles’ ordination at the Cathedral of St. Ignatius Loyola, 9995 N. Military Trail, Palm Beach Gardens. Charles Immordino was born in Yonkers, New York in 1950. He attended St. Barnabas Grammar School in the Bronx and Xavier High School in Manhattan. He attended Cathedral College of the Immaculate Conception and graduated from St. John’s University in 1972. Charles graduated from Nursing School in 1976 and has been actively practicing nursing for over 40 years. Charles is a 30+ year veteran of the US Army and Army reserve with 6 years of enlisted service and 24 years of commissioned service. Charles retired from the military in 2006, after completing his final assignment Chief Nursing Officer of a Combat Support Hospital. He has earned many awards in his military career including the Meritorious Service Medal. Charles has lived in Florida since 1976 and has been a member of St. Lucie Catholic Church since 1979. He and his wife Diana have three children Christine, Melissa and Matthew and six grandchildren Tyler, Kayla, Logan, Ashley, Madison and Savannah. Charles has worked with the local hospitals in the area since 1976 and has served in various roles from staff nurse and ICU nurse, to Vice President of Clinical

Operations. Charles also served on the Board of Hospice of the Treasure Coast for more than ten years. In 2010 Charles opened his own Ambulatory Surgery Center Consulting firm with his partner Mark Rainis, who worships at Holy Redeemer Catholic Church in Palm City. The business is based in Palm City and Charles is particularly proud of the way his business helps Ambulatory Health Care facilities achieve and maintain safe and successful patient care. Charles began his church life at a very young age. In the third grade he became an “altar boy” and served on the altar through high school. He had always felt the calling to be a priest, but God took him in another direction when he met Diana. He has always served God’s people through his vocation as a Registered Nurse and as an officer in the Army helping to bring the love of God to the people he served with and led. In St. Lucie you are very likely to find Charles working with engaged couples, bringing communion to the sick and shut-ins, serving on the altar during Mass, visiting the prisoners and bringing Christ’s love to them at Okeechobee State Prison. Upon retirement from the Military in 2006, Charles began to look seriously into the Diaconate and in 2014 was accepted into the Diocese of Palm Beach Diaconate Program. After 5+ years of study and formation at St. Vincent DePaul Regional Seminary in Boynton Beach, he will be ordained a deacon on September 7, 2019. Charles is excited and feels blessed to have the opportunity to serve the people of God as a Deacon and he is looking forward to serving the loving and wonderful people of St. Lucie Parish. Congratulations to our “soon-to-be” newest Deacon!

CHOIR NOTES The first mid-week practice of the St Lucie Choir will be THIS THURSDAY, September 5, at 7:00 PM in the Chapel. We are looking for some new talent! If you are interested in joining, please talk with director Adria Cary for a few minutes this weekend. I look forward to meeting you! Adria Cary, Choir Director

A promise is one thing, but performance is quite another thing.

What is a Permanent Deacon?

by Deacon Dale Konas

Even after 50 years, the permanent diaconate still confuses some people. If deacons aren't priests, are they laypeople? No- they are ordained. The deacon, by virtue of the sacrament of Holy Orders, is constituted as a sacred minister of the church, working under the direction of the diocesan Bishop and collaboratively with the presbyterate (priests) of the diocese. It has been said that the diaconate and the presbyterate act as the arms of the Bishop. Just as the priest is an icon of Christ who presides, orders are conferred upon a man for the diaconate so that there might be a sacramental manifestation of the church's mission of diakonia (service) and of Christ the servant. The diaconate is the first part of the Sacrament of Holy Orders followed by priesthood and the episcopacy. Together, these three stages formed the one sacrament of Holy Orders. There is no difference in the sacramental sign or functions between these so-called "transitional" (on the way to priesthood) and "permanent" deacons. Most permanent deacons are married. The permanent diaconate is a specific vocation in the Church, one that depends on the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. God is the one who calls deacons to serve in the Church through the sacrament of Holy Orders. It is not only what a deacon does, but who a deacon is, that is important. When assisting at Mass, the deacon represents the people at the sacrifice. Preparation and formation of a permanent deacon includes being reformed; to include spiritual, theological and pastoral training. Most programs are

five years in duration. Truly a balancing act between the formation and education of those called by God. Both the church and the candidate discern the diaconate vocation throughout the formation process which includes their wives. Permanent deacons live a unique life in the church. They are clerics who have a foot in the secular world via work and family. Their unique perspective benefits the Church. Some of the duties of Permanent Deacons as servant leaders are: assist at Mass, witness marriages, preaching, baptisms, baptism preparation classes, wake services, funerals outside of Mass, graveside services, communion services at nursing homes, prison ministry, house blessings, home visits, benediction, pastoral counseling, blessings, spiritual advisor to parish organizations, teaching, available for any other assignment by pastor or bishop. We look forward to welcoming our 5th deacon to our parish, Charles Immordino with his ordination on September 7th.

FROM THE OFFICE OF OUR BISHOP August 31, 2019 Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ: Next weekend, September 7 and 8, the Diocese of Palm Beach will have a special collection to benefit the Respect Life Ministry and Migrant Ministry. These ministries seek to protect the sacredness and uniqueness of God’s people. Specifically, the Respect Life Program is a year-round, nationwide effort to help Catholics understand, value, and become engaged in building a culture that cherishes every human life. As followers of Jesus Christ and members of His Church, we seek to protect and promote the sanctity of the unborn, the poor, the unemployed, the migrant, the marginalized, the imprisoned, the sick, the persecuted and the vulnerable The mission of the Migrant Ministry program is to serve and advocate for refugees, asylees, migrants, unaccompanied children and victims of human trafficking. These individuals typically have suffered great loss, including their homes, livelihoods, possessions and oftentimes families, therefore needing assistance to start over in a new environment. Your support helps with their initial needs including food, clothing, shelter, employment, English language training and orientation to a new community and culture. Together let us prayerfully and compassionately respond in faith to those who cry out to God in desperation as they seek a safe place for themselves and their families. With gratitude for your continued generosity and every prayerful wish, I am

Sincerely yours in Christ, Most Reverend Gerald M. Barbarito Bishop of Palm Beach

PROTECCION A LOS NIÑOS Fuente: Virtus Online.org

Por Paul Ashton, Psy.D., D. Min. (extracto)

Proteger a los niños es una de esas formas en que todos participamos. Si bien no siempre pensamos en las formas en que esto sucede, las pequeñas cosas que hacemos hacen una gran diferencia. Considere las siguientes veces que puede proteger a los niños todos los días:

♦♦Seguir las reglas, sin tratar de romperlas en lugares donde se reúnen niños y menores de edad. Esto da un buen ejemplo y ayuda mucho a ofrecer a los niños espacios seguros.

♦♦Observar y estar alerta a los comportamientos de otros adultos cuando hay reuniones de niños, sirve para proteger a los jóvenes.

♦♦Escuchar a los niños, prestar atención a los detalles, interesarse por sus historias. Esto les da confianza en la forma en que se comunican con usted.

♦♦Hablar con los niños sobre las reglas de seguridad, modelar buenos comportamientos, etc. Todo esto lleva a que los niños sigan buenas prácticas.

♦♦Ayudar a los niños que parecen perdidos y llevarlos a una persona segura a cargo, y esperar con ellos hasta que sus padres se presenten.

♦♦Tener otro adulto presente contigo cuando estés en una posición de confianza con los niños.

♦♦Asegurarse de no maldecir ni actuar de manera inapropiada en presencia de niños y al alcance de su oído.

♦♦Apoyando los esfuerzos de protección infantil mediante la participación y el voluntariado.

♦♦Educar a los niños, enseñarles y ser positivos en la forma en que los ayudan.

♦♦Sonriendo, asintiendo con comprensión y con una mirada amable cuando un padre se encuentra en una situación difícil con sus hijos y trata de manejarlo.

♦♦Informar cualquier sospecha de comportamientos inapropiados de personas que conoce o no, al liderazgo apropiado, e incluso a las autoridades.

♦♦Orando por la seguridad de todos los niños y personas vulnerables.

♦♦Actuando sobre el dicho, "si ves algo, di algo".

♦♦Estar capacitado en programas de ambiente seguro, clases de primeros auxilios, protocolos de simulacro de emergencia, etc.

Proclamar los Evangelios no queda relegado a los ordenados al sacerdocio. Cada persona que escucha la palabra de Dios, la toma en su corazón y actúa en consecuencia, lo hace de manera efectiva y audaz sin importar cuán pequeño pueda parecer el gesto. Contribuimos al bien del mundo y a la seguridad de aquellos que nos han sido confiados al estar plenamente vivos y presentes ante Dios trabajando dentro de nosotros. No tiene que estar certificado en nada para hacer esto.
