St. Charles Borromeo Catholic Parish 440 Kendall Street, Burlington, WI | 262.763.2260 | July 24, 2016 17th Sunday in Ordinary Time
Very Rev. Jim Volkert, Pastor | Rev. Yamid Blanco, Associate Pastor
A Message from Father Jim . . . “Lord, teach us to pray” We might find ourselves resonating with these words today as we listen to the Gospel from St. Luke in which Jesus teaches His followers, and us, how to pray. What happens when we ask for things in prayer? Why do we have to pray when God already knows our needs? Though God always answers prayers, He will not always do so in the way, or at the time, that we think He should. Jesus’ own experience shows us that prayer does not change God. Prayer changes us. When we place our needs before God in prayer, we are opening ourselves to the action of God in our lives. This helps explain why Jesus teaches us to pray for our needs, even though God knows them all in advance. Each time we pray we are acknowledging our dependence on God. God does not need the reminder. We do! Even when we have done our best to explain and understand prayer, however, it still remains a mystery. Although, one thing we can be sure of is that when we pray, our hearts can truly experience deep joy and peace, a peace and joy that can only be found with God. God bless you always! Father Jim Volkert Prayer Garden Social This year's social is scheduled for July 30 after 5:15 mass. Back by popular request are 'The Holy Spirits Wines' of Fr. Domenic Roscioli. Reds, whites and selections in between will be available for sampling and for sale. Light refreshments will also be served.

New Arrival“Miracles From Heaven” DVD at the Library The DVD “Miracles from Heaven” has arrived at the library. This is a true story of Anna Beam, a 10 year old girl from Texas who is suffering from a chronic illness. She has a near death experience after falling three stories into a hollow tree and suffers only scratches. She tells her story of talking to God and how He sends her back because there were plans for her on earth yet. She is cured miraculously from her chronic illness. The book is available for check-out also from the church library and is even better than the movie. Check it out, you won’t be disappointed!

MINISTERIO HISPANO BOLETÍN DEL 17 DOMINGO DEL TIEMPO ORDINARIO DOMINGO 24 DE JULIO Hermanos estos dos últimos domingos de Julio, vamos a hacer uso del método “Lectio Divina” Que significa? Es la lectura orante de la Palabra de Dios. “La Lectio Divina es una fuente genuina de la espiritualidad cristiana. Practiquemos cada día para adquirir un suave y muy vivo amor y para aprender la supereminente ciencia de Jesucristo. Así cumpliremos el mandato del Apóstol Pablo que nos recuerda la Regla: “La espada del Espíritu, que es la Palabra de Dios, habite con toda su riqueza en su boca y en sus corazones, y todo lo que tienen que hacer háganlo en el nombre del Señor” Constituciones Carmelitas (n. 82) Antes de continuar vamos a recordar los pasos que tenemos que realizar para Orar con la Palabra de Dios: A continuación hermanos voy a hacer uso del Folleto Manual Práctico “Experiencia de vida Eremítica” Escrito por nuestro Fundador Monseñor Fausto Traves, Arzobispo de Quito Ecuador. Lo que a continuación escribiré esta mas detallado en el Folleto, solamente voy a nombrar los pasos que tenemos que realizar para vivir diariamente este contacto con la la Palabra de Dios, y asi alimentar nuestra vida espiritual, Los pasos a realizar y que los podemos tener con mayor explicación, los encuentran en el Folleto que lo pueden Adquirir en la oficina del Ministerio Hispano. Como observamos en el dibujo, cuán importante es que la familia rece unida, la oración es la mejor arma para que en nuestra vida diaria no perdamos la presencia del Señor. Como dije anteriormente solo voy a nombrar los 4 pasos Que nos ayuda a traer a nuestras vidas la lectura orante de la Palabra de Dios. Estos 4 pasos o peldaños son: 1.- LECTIO (Se pronuncia Leccio) se trata de la Lectura del Pasaje de la Biblia que hemos elegido. Que dice? 2.- MEDITATIO ( Meditación ) Que me dice? 3.- ORATIO (Oracion) Que le digo? 4 - CONTEMPLATIO ( Contemplación) Que hago? Hermanos es muy importante dar este espacio a Dios en nuestra vida de cada dia, y asi hacer realidad las palabra y hacer realidad lo que dijo el Señor en el Evangelio.
