TRANSCRIPT
St. Anthony of Padua Church www.sapparish.org 16th Sunday in Ordinary Time ~ July 17, 2016
Sixteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time ~ Weekend of July 16/17, 2016
Martha and Mary are the focus of this weekend’s Gospel, which abounds with
rich themes about hospitality, service, and finding the right balance
between action and prayerful attention to the Lord. Christians who
are good stewards of their faith life realize that if they are too busy to
enjoy peaceful, private time with the Lord, then something is out of
balance in their spirituality. If we make time for Mass, but then carry
on with our busy schedules without prayer, meditation and reflection,
we are missing out. If we find ourselves anxious and harried by life’s
routines, could it be a sign that something in our spiritual life needs
some serious attention?

XVI Domingo Ordinario ~ 17 de Julio de 2016 ~ 16th Sunday of Ordinary Time
Décimo Sexto Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario Fin de Semana del 16/17 de Julio de 2016
Marta y María son el centro del Evangelio de este fin de semana, el cual abunda de espléndidos
temas acerca de la hospitalidad, el servicio y el encuentro del balance correcto entre la acción y
la atención fervorosa al Señor. Los cristianos que son buenos
corresponsables de su vida de fe son conscientes de que si
ellos están demasiado ocupados para disfrutar un tiempo tran-
quilo y privado con el Señor, entonces algo está fuera de bal-
ance en su espiritualidad. Si nosotros hacemos un tiempo para
asistir a Misa, pero continuamos con nuestras ocupadas agen-
das sin oración, meditación ni reflexión, estamos perdiendo
algo. Si nos encontramos ansiosos y hostigados por las rutinas
de la vida, ¿podría ser este un signo de que algo en nuestra
vida espiritual necesita de nuestra seria atención?

the Church and under the powerful leadership of
Mary Immaculate, serve the Church and their

Prayer for Priests
O Jesus, our great High
Priest, Hear my
humble prayers on
behalf of your priest,
Father [N]. Give him a
deep faith, a bright and
firm hope and a
burning love
which will ever
increase in the course of
his priestly life. In his
loneliness, comfort him
in his sorrows,
strengthen him in his
frustrations, point out to
him that it is through
suffering that the soul is
purified, and show him
that he is needed by the
Church, he is needed by
souls, he is needed for
the work of
redemption. O loving
Mother Mary, Mother
of Priests, take to your
heart your son who is
close to you because of
his priestly ordination,
and because of the
power which he has
received to carry on the
work of Christ in a
world which needs him
so much. Be his
comfort, be his joy, be
his strength, and
especially help him to
live and to defend the
ideals of consecrated
celibacy. Amen.
