Fr. Dustin’s New Address If you were unable to say your farewells

in person at his farewell cookout last

week and would like to send him a card

instead, Fr. Dustin’s new address is:

Fr. Dustin Boehm, St. Gabriel Parish

232 W. Ninth St., Connorsville, IN 47331

Pray for an End to Violence in Our

City! As we all know, violent crime has been a major issue over

the past few years. It has not been a major issue in the

neighborhood surrounding St Monica, but it has affected our

brothers and sisters in other areas in Indianapolis and many

of us feel called to do something, anything, to help. We are

not powerless against these things. Fr Todd mentioned the

principle of solidarity which, among other things, is a direct

demand of human and Christian brotherhood that involves a

love and care for all peoples that transcends national, racial,

ethnic, economic, and ideological differences. Fr. Todd also

stated that we cannot end violence in the city; however, we need to be more active and

beginning with prayer. We have accepted Fr. Todd’s challenge for us not to stay

indifferent, to come together as community and use prayer as a foundation to appeal to our

brothers and sisters to accept Christ Peace.

Several events/programs/vigils are taking place over the next few months. The Church

Federation of Greater Indianapolis holds a prayer vigil for all those families who have

been affected by violence twice a year. The next one is on September 25 (details to be

shared later). Leading up to that event, it is asked that everyone in the parish use a portion

of the Novena to the Holy Spirit to pray daily beginning this Tuesday, July 15 and

continue doing so up each day until September 25. There are Novena cards with

instructions in the Narthex, on St Monica's Facebook page and on it's website at

www.stmonicaindy.org. We have also invited Troy Riggs, the Public Safety Director for

the City of Indianapolis to come speak to us on Wednesday, August 27 at 7 pm in the St

Augustine Room on the topic of personal responsibility in preventing violence and also

how we can help the victims of violence.

There is also going to be a Peace Festival that will take place in the Martindale-

Brightwood neighborhood (at IPS School #51, 3426 Roosevelt Ave, 46218) called 'Circle

Up.' This event will feature an employment fair, a health fair, art exhibits, an education

fair, entertainment open mic, and fun family activities. Some folks from the parish are

part of the event planning committee that meets every Tuesday evening from 6 to 8 pm at

IPS School 37, just east of the Juvenile Center at 25th & Keystone. Everyone from the

parish is invited to attend these committee meetings, as well as the event itself. There are

also prayer vigils that are held at the various sites in the city where violence/murders have

recently occurred and we will try to post those on the St Monica Facebook page. These

are obviously very powerful experiences - please keep an eye out for these events and

prayerfully consider attending them.

As you can see, prayer is the overwhelming theme for the above-mentioned

events. Maybe the most powerful thing we at St Monica can do is collectively pray—and

pray often—for victims, for families of victims, for those who commit crimes and their

families, for those working on something to help curb violence, and for ending other acts

of violence or injustice in our community. Please strongly and prayerfully consider, at a

minimum, doing the Novena daily. If the whole parish is collectively praying this

Novena, maybe mountains can be moved. Please grab a card from the narthex today!

Thank you!

Combine Prayer and Exercise with SoulCore at St.

Monica! SoulCore is a 50-minute workout combining Pilates and stretches—all done while

praying the rosary! A stretch or core-strengthening position is held for every Hail Mary,

with a rest time between each decade to learn about the fruits of the mysteries of the most

holy rosary. In a one-month trial run at St. Monica, participants found it to be

“challenging,” “reflective” and “a great way to combine workout and prayer.” The

workout is DVD-led—and free of charge! It’s held every Monday in the St. Augustine

Room from 6-7 p.m. Wear comfortable clothes, and bring a mat. No need to call to say

you’re coming, but if you’d like more information, call Natalie Hoefer at 317-295-1697.

You can also learn more about the workout (created by Our Lady of Mount Carmel

parishioners) at www.SoulCoreProject.com.

¡Ora por el Fin de la Violencia en

Nuestra Ciudad! Como todos lo sabemos, los crímenes violentos han sido un

mayor problema en estos últimos años. Aunque no ha sido

un problema mayor en el vecindario alrededor de Santa

Mónica, si ha afectado a nuestros hermanos y hermanas en

otras áreas de Indianápolis y muchos de nosotros sentimos

el llamado a hacer algo, cualquier cosa, para ayudar.

No somos impotentes contra estas cosas. El Padre Todd

mencionó el principio de la solidaridad la cual, junto con

otras cosas, es una demanda directa de hermandad humana y

Cristiana que involucra el amor y cuidado de las demás

personas trascendiendo sus diferencias nacionales, raciales,

étnicas, económicas e ideológicas. El Padre Todd también dijo que no podemos terminar

con la violencia en esta ciudad; aunque, necesitamos estar más activos y empezar a

orar. Hemos aceptados los retos del Padre Todd en no ser indiferentes, para unirnos como

comunidad y usar la oración como fundamento para apelar por nuestros hermanos y

hermanas para aceptar la Paz de Cristo.

Varios eventos/programas/vigilas se están llevando a cabo los próximos meses. La Iglesia

de la Gran Federación de Indianápolis tiene oraciones de vigilia dos veces al año para

todas las familias quienes has sido afectadas por la violencia. La próxima es el 25 de

septiembre (se compartirán los detalles más tarde). En los días previos de este evento, se

les pide a todas las parroquias hacer una novena al Espíritu Santo para orar diariamente

empezando este martes, 15 de Julio y continuar haciéndolo cada día hasta el 25 de

septiembre. Habrá tarjetas con las instrucciones en el Nártex, en la página de Facebook de

Santa Mónica y en la red de internet en www.stmonicaindy.org. También hemos invitado

a Troy Riggs, el Director de la Seguridad Pública para la Ciudad de Indianápolis a venir a

hablar con nosotros acerca de la responsabilidad personal para prevenir la violencia y

también en cómo podemos ayudar a las víctimas de violencia el miércoles, 27 de Agosto a

las 7 pm en el Salón San Agustín.

También habrá un Festival que se llevará a cabo en el vecindario de Martindale-

Brightwood (en la Escuela # 51 de IPS, 3426 Roosevelt Ave, 46218) llamado

‘Reunámonos.' Este evento tendrá una feria de empleo, una feria de salud, exhibiciones de

arte, una feria de educación, entretenimiento con micrófono abierto, y actividades

divertidas para toda la familia. Algunas personas de la parroquia son parte del comité de

planeación del evento que se reúnen cada martes por la tarde de 6 a 8 pm en la escuela 37

de IPS, al este del Centro Juvenil por la 25th & Keystone. Todos en la parroquia están

invitados a asistir a las reuniones de este comité, al igual que para este evento mismo.

También habrá vigilas que se llevarán a cabo en varios lugares en la ciudad donde

recientemente han ocurrido casos de violencia/asesinatos y trataremos de ponerlos en la

página de Facebook de Santa Mónica. Estas son obviamente experiencias muy poderosas

– por favor esté al pendiente de estos eventos y ore para considerar su asistencia. Como

puede ver, la oración es un tema contundente para todos los eventos mencionados arriba.

Quizás la cosa más poderosa que podemos hacer nosotros en Santa Mónica es la oración

colecta—y orar muy seguido—por las víctimas, por los familiares de las víctimas, por

quienes cometen crímenes y sus familiares, por quienes trabajan en algo para ayudar a

parar la violencia, y por el fin de los actos de violencia o injusticia en nuestra comunidad.

Por favor considere fuertemente la oración, por lo menos haga la Novena diariamente. Si

toda la Parroquia ora colectivamente esta Novena, quizás las montañas se moverán. ¡Por

favor tome una tarjeta en el nártex hoy! ¡Gracias!
