THE FLAME OF LOVE ROSARY

Mary’s “Cause”, the Flame of Love Movement, is her call to save souls from the dangers of sin, which are so prevalent. The Flame of Love is an extra-ordinary grace which comes from Mary’s Immaculate Heart to us at this time in history. The Flame of Love is Jesus, Himself, who desires to empower faithful souls to combat the evils of sin, lukewarmness, and indifference. The Flame of Love Movement revives tepid souls enabling them to embrace: daily Mass and Rosary, Eucharistic Adoration Holy Hours, Fasting, forming Prayer Cenacles of Reparation and becoming part of a community devoted to spreading the Flame of Love. Every Thursday, all are welcome to pray this special rosary at 7:15 PM sharp in the church. Wear your mask and please, social distance!

ST. LUCIE HAS A NEW CAMERA!

Thanks to our St. Lucie CCW, St. Lucie has a new camera to stream masses! Images are clearer than ever and streaming is being used by more parishioners than ever. Video streaming begins 15 minutes before each liturgy. Liturgies will be archived for one week so you will be able to access a particular mass during the week. The new church camera was installed on our website: www.stlucie.cc. To view, open our website. Next, click the “video” button (found just below the sliding pictures). The “Live Stream” broadcast box will be the first box you will see (shown at the top of this column). In order to view the new camera, click on the icon triangle that sits on the red “Live” view. It is that easy. Further down, the 24-hour Live Feed is the old camera and operates 24 hours a day. (It is not as clear as the new camera.) The Chapel camera will broadcast when we are using the Chapel again for liturgies.

Commemorative St. Lucie Parish Cookbook

We are looking ahead to our 60th anniversary celebration of St. Lucie Parish to take place in 2021! Lots of activities will be planned one of which is a parish cookbook. During the next months we welcome parishioners to share their favorite recipes. Please submit your recipe to Doreen Recco at St. Lucie Parish Office: 425 SW Irving Street, PSL, FL 34983. Submit your recipe by Friday, October 25, 2020. Your recipe should be printed or typed - no script. You may submit more than one recipe. Follow the format below: Give your name and (phone number - We need to contact you if we have questions).

Include category of recipe: appetizer, salad/dressing, soup, (entre: meat, fish, vegetarian), bread, dessert, drink

Name of recipe.

List of ingredients and amounts.

Directions (include oven temperature and cooking time and any necessary cooking equipment such as parchment paper, bundt pan, blender.)

Your name will be included with your recipe in the cookbook.

Submit a name for our cookbook. Winner receives a free cookbook. If two cookbook names are alike, we will consider the first submission.

THURSDAY SOUP KITCHEN During this pandemic, we haven’t been able to offer hot meals in our hall on Thursdays, but we have found another way to help those in need. At noon on Thursdays we hand out boxed/bagged hot lunches! This is another good reason why we welcome food donations. St. Lucie Parish’s approach to noon lunches is just one piece of a puzzle to make life easier to those who need it most.

Habits are either the best of servants or the worst of masters.

ADORATION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT

Eucharistic Adoration is the adoration of Jesus Christ present in the Holy Eucharist. A consecrated host, the Holy Eucharist, is placed in a special container attached within a standing cross called a “Monstrance.” The cross reminds us of Christ’s love given for mankind’s sins so that we might have eternal life. The Holy Eucharist is Jesus Christ and although it does not look like the body and blood of Jesus, His Real Presence is hidden within the appearance of the consecrated host. This is a great mystery, something we are not capable of fully rationalizing but we know it to be truth. People come in reverence to pray and worship before the Holy Eucharist on display for certain hours and/or specified days. At Saint Lucie Parish, we have Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament every Thursday and every First Friday of the Month in the church after the 8:30 AM. Mass and this continues until 5:00 PM ending with Benediction on Thursdays and First Friday. We also display the Monstrance at other specified times. Always, there is a sign-up sheet for those desiring to commit themselves in prayer and in presence of the Blessed Sacrament. Usually, we sign our names for an hour designating that we will be present. This is done never to have Jesus left alone!

OUR LADY OF FATIMA ROSARY Please attend the Rosary for Our Lady of Fatima and the Chaplet of Divine Mercy this coming Tuesday, September 1st beginning at 6:30 PM in the Church. If you cannot be there in person, follow us live on the church’s website at stlucie.cc. Bring your intentions for Our Lady’s intercession to Her Son, Jesus Christ. All are welcome.

The abundant life is often smothered by the abundant things of this life.

CHURCH VOTIVE CANDLES Our church votive candles can be dedicated to the memory of a loved one. Their name will be inscribed on the candle commemorative plate and the candle will be lit for a year. If you would like to have your loved one memorialized in this special way, please visit the parish office during regular office hours. The donation is $150.00 per candle.

ABOUT CONVALIDATION

Convalidation is the means by which a marriage celebrated outside the Catholic Church (a civil marriage or one in a church of another faith tradition) is recognized as valid and receives the formal blessing of the Catholic Church. In the Catholic Church marriage is a sacrament. Without a marriage celebrated within the Catholic Church (unless they have a dispensation), Catholics must refrain from taking Holy Communion or acting as witnesses/sponsors for Baptism or Confirmation. Even if a couple married outside the Church years ago, they may enter into a Convalidation. Our priests are always eager to sit down with a couple and begin the steps so that their marriage may be blessed.

Parish Guidelines for the Convalidation of a Marriage:

1. Convalidation presumes that both parties are free in the eyes of the Church to marry one another in the first place. Any individual (Catholic or not) who has had a previous marriage and whose former spouse is still living will require an annulment prior to convalidation. (An annulment may take around a year, so plan accordingly. A date for convalidation may not be set until the annulment is approved.)

2. Couples seeking convalidation must contact the Church and make an appointment with a priest at least six months prior to the anticipated date of the ceremony.

3. As part of the preparation for convalidation, a copy of the Civil Marriage License will be required. In addition, the Catholic spouse(s) will be required to present a copy of their Baptismal Record, recently issued (no more than six months old) by the original church of baptism of that individual.

WHAT IS THE 2020 CENSUS? The census is a count of every person who lives in the United States and its territories. It happens every 10 years. It includes a few simple questions about things like age, sex, and the number of people who live in your home. The 2020 Census will collect the same data as the 2010 Census. The U.S. Census Bureau is partnering with faith-based institutions to promote the 2020 Census. These institutions volunteered to help because they understood how important a complete count is for their congregants and community. They are trusted voices in their communities and are critical to conveying the importance of the 2020 Census. In addition, faith communities often serve the same people that use many of the federal programs that receive funding based on census data. These programs include those that address poverty, hunger, homelessness, childcare, emergency services, and public safety. The U.S. Census Bureau asks about race and ethnicity in the decennial census, but it does not collect information about religious affiliation because U.S. law prohibits this. Being counted matters for you and your community regardless of your religious affiliation. The 2020 Census will determine how many representatives your state will have in Congress. Census results will also help determine how billions of dollars in federal funding are allocated to states and communities each year for housing, schools, food assistance, health care, and other vital services. The 2020 Census is confidential. The U.S. census Bureau is required to protect your privacy and keep your answers confidential. By law, your personal information cannot be used against you or anyone else by any government agency or court, and it can’t be accessed by the police department, DHS, ICE, FBI, or CIA. For more information, visit: 2020CENSUS.GOV.

Two concepts of a truly happy life: (1) Use things, not people. (2) Love people, not things.

SAN VICENTE DE PAUL

Vicente significa: "Vencedor, victorioso"

San Vicente nació en el pueblecito de Pouy en Francia, en 1580. Su niñez la pasó en el campo, ayudando a sus padres en el pastoreo de las ovejas. Desde muy pequeño era sumamente generoso en ayudar a los pobres. Se ordenó sacerdote en 1600. El ministro Gondi nombró al Padre Vicente como capellán de

las grandes regiones donde tenía sus haciendas. Y allí nuestro santo descubrió con horror que los campesinos ignoraban totalmente la religión y que no tenían quién les instruyera. Se consiguió un grupo de sacerdotes amigos, empezó a predicar misiones por esos pueblos y veredas y el éxito fue clamoroso. De ahí le vino la idea de fundar su Comunidad de Padres Vicentinos, que se dedican a instruir y ayudar a las gentes más necesitadas. Lo único que exigía a los suyos era bondad, constancia y dulzura. En cualquier parte donde llegaba, el santo fundaba unos grupos de caridad para ayudar e instruir a las gentes más pobres. San Vicente poseía una gran cualidad para lograr que la gente rica le diera limosnas para los pobres. Reunía a las señoras más adineradas de París y les hablaba con tanta convicción acerca de la necesidad de ayudar a quienes estaban en la miseria, que ellas daban cuánto dinero encontraban a la mano. Había hecho un juramento de dedicar toda su vida a los más miserables y lo fue cumpliendo día por día con generosidad heroica. Fundó varios hospitales y asilos para huérfanos. Recogía grandes cantidades de dinero y lo llevaba a los que habían quedado en la miseria a causa de la guerra. Él decía que “el mayor regalo que Dios puede hacer a un pueblo es darle un sacerdote santo.” Por eso empezó a reunir a quienes se preparaban para el sacerdocio, para darles cursos especiales, y a los que ya eran sacerdotes, los reunía cada martes para darles conferencias acerca de los deberes del sacerdocio. Siempre vestía muy pobremente, y cuando le querían tributar honores exclamaba: "Yo soy un pobre pastorcito de ovejas, que dejé el campo para venirme a la ciudad, pero sigo siendo siempre un campesino simplón y ordinario." En sus últimos años su salud estaba muy deteriorada, pero no por eso dejaba de inventar y dirigir nuevas y numerosas obras de caridad. El 27 de septiembre de 1660 pasó a la eternidad. Tenía 80 años. El Santo Padre León XIII proclamó a este sencillo campesino como Patrono de todas las asociaciones católicas de caridad.

CURSO “VATICANO II” Escuela de Formación Cristiana

Diócesis de Palm Beach

Inicio: 5 de Septiembre - 9:30 AM - 12:30 PM Clase Virtual – ZOOM

La Escuela de Formación Cristiana anuncia su próximo curso, CONCILIO VATICANO II, donde aprenderemos un poco sobre los diferentes concilios que han existido desde San

Pedro y estudiaremos con más detalle sobre el último concilio, Vaticano II, iniciado por el Papa Juan XXIII y concluido por el Papa Pablo VI. Su objetivo principal fue La Constitución de la Sagrada Liturgia. Las clases se llevarán a cabo virtualmente a partir del sábado 5 de septiembre por cuatro sábados consecutivos usando la aplicación ZOOM. Los participantes recibirán un certificado de la Diócesis al final del curso. Para más detalles y para registrarse, comuníquense a más tardar el 31 de agosto con Jorge Rojas al (772) 342-4467, o visiten la oficina parroquial.

RITO DE INICIACION CRISTIANA PARA ADULTOS (RICA)

RICA es el rito de unión completa con la Iglesia Católica Romana. Se ofrece instrucción y guía espiritual a los adultos que nunca han sido bautizados y a quienes ya están bautizados- (católicos y/o cualquier otra denominación cristiana) que necesiten los Sacramentos de Confirmación y Sagrada Eucaristía. Después de un período de preparación y discernimiento (usualmente un año) los ritos de iniciación son administrados en la Vigilia Pascual celebrada el sábado de Gloria en la noche. Este proceso tiene varias etapas: Etapa de Evangelización y Pre-catecumenado, Elección o Inscripción de Nombres, Etapa de Purificación e Iluminación, celebración de los Sacramentos de Iniciación y, por último, la Etapa de Catequesis después del bautismo. Para más información y para registrarse, comuníquese con Andrea Draper al 878-1215.

AMERICA NECESITA A FATIMA Los Discípulos de San Damiano nos invitan a rezar el rosario el primer martes del mes en la iglesia. Las oraciones y lecturas comienzan a las 6:45 PM: Coronilla de la Divina Misericordia. 7:00 PM: Rosario en inglés y español. Meditación con nuestra Madre Celestial. Antes de comenzar, hacemos nuestras peticiones a la Virgen de Fátima verbalmente, en silencio o por escrito y nuestra Madre Celestial las presentará a su Hijo. Únanse a nosotros para orar como nos pide nuestra virgencita.

¡TENEMOS UNA CÁMARA NUEVA! Gracias a nuestro Consejo de Damas Católicas-CCW Santa Lucía tiene una cámara nueva para transmitir las misas. Las imágenes son muy claras y la cámara está siendo utilizada por más feligreses que nunca. La transmisión de video comienza 15 minutos antes de cada liturgia. Las liturgias se archivarán durante una semana para que puedan tener acceso a una misa en particular. La cámara nueva se instaló en nuestro sitio web www.stlucie.cc. Para ver las transmisiones vayan a nuestro sitio web; a continuación, hagan clic en el botón "video" (que se encuentra justo debajo de las imágenes deslizantes). El cuadro de "Transmisión en Vivo" será el primero que verán (se muestra en la parte superior de esa columna). Para ver la nueva cámara, hagan clic en el icono triangular rojo que dice "En Vivo". ¡Es así de fácil! Más abajo, verán la transmisión en vivo de la cámara anterior que funciona las 24 horas del día. (video/audio no son tan claros como la cámara nueva.) Las transmisiones en la capilla se reanudarán una vez que volvamos a utilizarla para las liturgias. “No te rindas tan fácilmente, sigue esforzándote por lo que quieres y anhelas en esta vida. Recuerda que Dios es nuestra fortaleza y nuestro refugio; en su nombre triunfaremos.” (Contribución de César Jimenez)
