FOURTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME

PEACE

The greeting of peace at Mass adds substance to a message of today’s readings: peace is relational. When we greet in peace the person near us at Mass, we share the touch of a handshake or embrace, sincere eye contact, and friendly words.

The scriptures speak of a similar peace. The first reading from Isaiah describes the peace of the holy city, Jerusalem, a place of prosperity and comfort where the “L ’s power shall be known to his servants”

(Isaiah 66:14c).

The Christian understanding of peace changes slightly. Paul writes of the “peace and mercy” on all who are created anew. Jesus describes a feeling of peace that will rest on those who accept his disciples and their message.

Peace is both an absence of strife and a personal blessing. May we always and sincerely bring peace to our own lives as we share it with others.

ANY GIFT SHOP SUGGESTIONS?

As we continue the process of “re-envisioning” a new and improved Christ Corner Gift Shop, we want to give our parish family the opportunity to provide ideas and suggestions regarding the types of merchandise we will be ordering. Remember, we want our store to reflect the parish’s mission of evangelization and to support the efforts of our ministries however we can. That means that what we sell should have at least some spiritual connotation, and also, if it’s something you can purchase at Walmart or Kohl’s, it’s probably not suitable for our store.

There are two ways to submit any suggestions you have: 1) You can leave a voicemail at 973-538-1358, ext. 123; or 2) You can send an e-mail to [email protected].

We look forward to hearing from you! The Gift Shop Leadership Team

COME TO APPLEBEE’S PANCAKE BREAKFAST I S O G O M

traveling disciples build four homes in Guatemala this August for four very deserving families! You may purchase tickets at the door, or contact Cristina Folan at 973-538-1358, ext. 105.

Can’t make the breakfast but wish to make a donation?

Please send your donation (check made out to Notre Dame of Mt. Carmel Church, “Guatemala Outreach” noted on the memo section of your check) to our parish office, attention Cristina Folan. Any amount will be an amazing blessing!

A MESSAGE FROM FR. PADDY

Dear Parish Family,

I need your help! We have a wonderful parishioner couple who are experiencing financial difficulty and are urgently seeking housing. They would welcome an opportunity to rent modest accommodations (a finished basement, a room and bathroom, etc.) as long as it is within drivable distance to our church.

The couple both work during the day, are middle- aged and are in good health. They are faith-filled, loving people and it would be a great blessing if we could help them through this rough patch in their lives.

If you or someone you know is able to offer a rental opportunity to these good people, please give me a call at 973-538-1358, ext. 101.

God bless you! Fr. Paddy IN NEED OF PRAYER?

Our parish's Healing Prayer Ministry extends a caring and prayerful presence to those who feel they would benefit from having faith-filled, compassionate ministers pray over and with them.

Next Sunday (and every 2nd Sunday of the month), following the 10:30am Mass, Healing Ministry members will be available for 1 hour in the Upper Room off the Gathering Space. Stop by for prayer, or bring a friend in need of it.

SHEPHERD'S CALL: Making Mass time count - for you AND your little one!

Shepherd's Call gives parents the opportunity to attend 9am or 10:30am Sunday Mass without distractions, while their little ones (18 months through 3 years of age) are offered in our Youth Ministry Room a safe environment of loving Christian care and spiritual nurturing. For more information, please visit our website at www.ndcarmel.com, or contact Norma Jahl at [email protected] or Kelli White at [email protected].

FOURTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION

Some say tomato—and some say tomahto—you know the old song. What do you say when you arrive at church and see a font prepared, a baby in the wings, the paschal candle burning? Well, maybe you will say that “we’re having a baptism today,” or maybe you say “we are having a christening.” The proper term is baptism, since that is the name of the sacrament. But the persistent use of “christening” in our culture, probably from due to the influence of the Episcopal Church, is interesting.

Baptism, an ancient word, is from the Greek meaning to dip or to dunk. Christening is an Old English word that describes perfectly well that more than getting splashed with water, the person being baptized is being “Christ-ed.” No matter what you call it, there’s always water involved, and then an

anointing with chrism—fragrant olive oil consecrated as a sign of Christ’s presence—poured upon the brow as we say, “As Christ was anointed Priest, Prophet, and King, so may you live always as a member of his body, sharing everlasting life.”

So, in being Christ-ed, you are conformed to his image, your life is expected to be a retelling of his life in miniature and you—even though you may be squirming or sleeping—are commissioned to be a priest, a prophet, a king. This means that you are called to be one who worships, you are called to speak the truth, you are called to shape the world and exercise right judgment. That is the deepest treasure of our tradition, and every time you gather to celebrate a baptism, you renew your vows precisely so that you can be more “Christ-ed.” No matter what vocabulary you assign to the liturgy, the key is transformation of the human person in the community of the Body of Christ.

—Rev. James Field,

FREEDOM

Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves. —Abraham Lincoln

PAUSE FOR PRAYER: JULY THE 4TH On this 4th of July, let's remember the inscription of Emma Lazarus' poem on the base of the Statue of Liberty, offering a haven, a refuge for the burdened and battered.

Give me your tired, your poor,

Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,

The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,

I lift my lamp beside the golden door.

Do these words remind you, as they do me, of a more ancient text?

Come to me, all you who labor and are burdened, and I will give you rest.

Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am meek and humble of heart;

and you will find rest for yourselves. For my yoke is easy, and my burden light.

(Matthew 11:28-30)

At least at this one point, Christ and Lady Liberty share a common, open heart.
