PRAYER FOR INDEPENDENCE DAY - JULY 4
God, source of all freedom,
This day is bright with the memory
Of those who declared that life and liberty
Are your gift to every human being.
Help us to continue a good work begun long ago.
Make our vision clear and our will strong:
That only in human solidarity will we find liberty,
And justice only in the honor that belongs
To every life on earth.
Turn our hearts toward the family of nations:
To understand the way of others,
To offer friendship,
And to find safety only in the common good for all.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen.

STEWARDSHIP
“I will rather boast most gladly of my weaknesses, in
order that the power of Christ may dwell with me.
Therefore, I am content with weaknesses, insults,
hardships, persecutions, and constraints, for the sake
of Christ; for when I am weak, then I am strong.”
2 Corinthians: 13-15
The reason St. Paul finds strength in his limitations is
because he is aware that the Lord will provide the
power needed in the midst of those deficiencies. Paul’s
life is God-centered. Living life that way is exactly the
way one can best follow stewardship as a way of life.
Paul prefaces his statement about being weak and
strong by writing the message he has been given by
the Lord, who said to him: “My grace is sufficient for
you, for power is made perfect in weakness.” - See

FOCUS ON DEPRESSION About one in eight people
deal with depression at some point in their lives. Unfortunately, many don’t seek treatment. Depression is a factor
in half of all suicide attempts and suicide is estimated to
be the eighth leading cause of death across all age
ranges. Signs and symptoms of depression should always be addressed as soon as possible, as early intervention gives the best chance for a complete recovery. If
you feel you have 3 or more of these symptoms a good
place to start would be with your primary care physician.
Symptoms of Depression
• Feelings of sadness, emptiness.
• Irritability or frustration even over small matters.
• Loss of interest or pleasure in normal activities.
• Sleeping too much or too little.
• Lack of energy.
• Anxiety, agitation or restlessness.
• Slowed thinking, speaking or movements.
• Feelings of worthlessness or guilt.
• Frequent thoughts of death or suicide.
• Unexplained physical problems, such as back
pain or headaches.

LIVING STONES
Foundations for Living Stones
A Faith Formation Program for interested Adults
“Come to him, a living stone...chosen and precious in
the sight of God, and, like living stones, let yourself be
built into a spiritual house...” (1 Peter 2:4-5)
St. Sabina, a Catholic faith community committed to
total and lifelong faith formation, is offering an adult
faith formation program titled, Foundations for Living
Stones. The program explores in greater depth and
knowledge the basics of our faith. All the sessions focus on the ministry that we are called to in and through
our baptism. Communication skills, group development, leadership skills, bible study, church history,
prayer and sacraments are some of the many areas
explored and examined in depth. Adult methods of
learning and reflection are employed throughout.
The sessions are scheduled on Tuesday evenings,
from 7-9:30 PM, beginning in late August and ending in
late May. This is a 9-month commitment to deepen
one’s skills and knowledge so as to become a more
effective and engaging minister. We hope to work collaboratively with our neighboring parishes, inviting
them to be part of this mutual learning process. For a
brochure or more information, please call or e-mail either Kris or Biagio at:
Biagio Mazza 816-979-3153 [email protected]

PRAYER FOR THE ELECTION OF A BISHOP
O God, eternal shepherd, who govern your flock with
unfailing care, grant in your boundless fatherly love a

Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you
in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and
ever.

2016 DELEGATION TO EL SALVADOR
Our parish will be taking its second delegation to El
Salvador to learn more about the scholarship program
there and to have the opportunity to meet and visit with
our scholarship students and their families. We will
travel to Cinquera and also to El Mozote. El Mozote
was the sight of one of many massacres that occurred
in El Salvador during their Civil War. As of now we are
planning to travel to El Salvador on January 5 and
staying approximately 8 days. If you are interested or
would like more information, please contact Kris at 816
-979-3151 or by email at [email protected].
MEMORY BOARD LISTING OUR DECEASED
Many years ago one of our
parish families created a
memory board to be displayed in the gathering space
listing all those buried from
our parish. In 2004 the memory board was filled with
names. Since then, we have
had funerals for 266 more
parishioners. Our Ladies Auxiliary of the Knights of Columbus has donated funds for the
creation of an additional memory board, which is now
hanging in the north alcove of the gathering space. We
give them our sincere thanks for undertaking this project. We also thank Joe Lager for his craftsmanship in
building and staining the new board. We have also received a donation from a parishioner that would like to
remain anonymous to cover the costs to keep the
memory board up to date, and we thank that parishioner also. Please take a moment to stop by the north
alcove to look at the memory boards. May all our beloved deceased rest in the peace of Christ.
ADULT FAITH FORMATION
REFLECTION ON THE FOURTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME , YEAR B
The readings for this Sunday focus our attention on
the human experience of opposition, contempt,
rejection and misunderstanding. All four readings
clearly state that pursuing God’s agenda and carrying
on the mission and ministry of Jesus will result in
opposition, rejection and misunderstanding. This reality
is an integral part of our baptismal commitment that we
usually find difficult to face, respond to and live with.
Today’s readings offer various ways to deal with this
pervasive human experience.
Responsorial Psalm 123 offers the strongest clue
to facing this most difficult of life’s dilemmas. The
refrain challenges us to fix our eyes on the Lord, from
whom comes all mercy, faithfulness, support and
guidance. With the whole assembly we are invited to
sing, “Our eyes are fixed on the Lord, pleading for his
mercy.” Through the psalm’s prayer focus we come to
understand that it is only in and with the Lord that we
can face rejection and opposition with integrity and
steadfastness. The Lord does not take away the reality
but rather helps us confront our distress and come to a
sense of wholeness and peace in the face of it.
The first reading speaks of Ezekiel being called by
the Lord to be a prophet to the people. In his
vocation call, Ezekiel comes to the realization that a
prophet, one who speaks on behalf of the Lord, will
experience opposition and rejection by the people. It
seems as if this reality is part and parcel of what it
means to speak on behalf of God. The passage states
that people in general have a pattern of rejecting
anyone who reminds them of God’s values and
intentions. Since such words usually go against the
prevailing attitude and perspective of most people, they
are difficult to accept, leading to a pattern of rejection
and opposition to anyone who claims to speak on
behalf of God. As with all who are called to speak on
behalf of the Lord, Ezekiel realizes that only with the
Lord is this life adventure truly possible.
Paul in his second letter to the
Corinthians speaks of a “thorn
in the flesh” that he feels God had
given him in order to curb his pride.
In his ministry on behalf of the
Lord, Paul feels that he was
granted many spiritual gifts from
God. This could have easily given
Paul a “big head.” This “thorn in the flesh” is a sign that
he is human just like everyone else. He seems to use
this weakness, whatever it might be, to alert him to his
need for the Lord. This weakness causes him to fix his
“eyes” on the Lord alone. In this fashion, Paul can put
up with any rejection and opposition, “for when I am
weak, then I am strong.” Rejection and opposition
causes him to place his trust completely in the Lord,
thus making him strong, and not in his own weak and
haughty self.
Mark’s gospel has Jesus visit his hometown of
Nazareth only to experience rejection, contempt and
opposition from those closest to him, “from his own kin
and in his own house.” Jesus is so amazed at their
“lack of faith” that he could not perform mighty deeds
there. Their “lack of faith” meant that they could not
perceive the presence and action of God in their midst.
They had their minds and hearts closed to what God
was accomplishing in the person of Jesus. Such
blindness is often the main source of rejection and
opposition to God. In such a context, God is powerless.
God cannot and will not force faith. Faith can only
operate when we allow it to take root in our hearts.
How have you learned to perceive the presence of
God in your life? How have you handled rejection and
opposition for your fidelity to your baptismal
commitment? Ask God for help and guidance in fixing
your “eyes” only on the Lord, trusting in God’s mercy,
support and faithfulness. Truly, only this makes us
strong.

RCIA
ST. SABINA RITE OF CHRISTIAN INITIATION
OF ADULTS – 2015-2016 The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults, the RCIA, is a process which welcomes all who are interested in becoming Catholic, or
any Catholic wishing to deepen their understanding of
the faith. The Rite involves the formation of a community that learns, shares, builds community and prays
together to deepen their relationship to God and to the
parish family. During the next few weeks, we will be
asking if you are aware of anyone who would benefit
from participation in this faith learning process. Below
are some of the values that we hold as Catholic Christians, which we readily share with all who desire to
journey with us through the RCIA.
WHY BE CATHOLIC? The Catholic Church has consistently believed that God has a universal will and desire to save all people. Our God is the God of all people. God has initiated this love relationship with all
creation and desires to bring all to fullness through total union with God for all eternity. Each one is called to
union with God through the faith path and tradition that
they feel God is leading them.
If this is so, then why be Catholic? One is Catholic, not
because it is the only way to God, but because one
feels attracted to the things that the Catholic tradition
offers. One feels at home more in the Catholic tradition
than in other faith traditions. The following list is meant
to highlight some of those aspects of the Catholic tradition that have attracted others to it.
Catholics are not the only ones that value these qualities. Nor have we been consistent in following through
on them. But, no matter the history, we seem to have
held onto these values rather consistently.
See if these are values and attractions for you.
1. We affirm a belief in the goodness of all creation.
2. We have a universal sense of openness to all people and all cultures.
3. We affirm that we are all called to holiness.
4. We are committed to continual growth as persons.
5. We are challenged to change the world and society
into the reign of God.
6. We are called to live in community.
7. We have historical roots and identity.
8. We respect reason, human knowledge and human
exploration.
If you or anyone you know would be attracted to these
values, please share this with them. Please fill out the
contact information sheet located in the gathering
space and we will personally contact and invite all
those interested to our RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation
of Adults) Meal which will be held on Thursday, August 27th, 2015 at 6:00pm.
For more information: Contact Biagio Mazza at 816331-4713 or by e-mail: [email protected]

de Cross Catholic Outreach quien está hablando este
fin de semana, en todas las Misas de parte de los

Al
Equipo de Manos para Ayudar,
Que maravillosa idea - ayudar a los miembros de la
iglesia!
Estoy tan bendecida de pertenecer a Sta. Sabina. Las
canaletas de mi casa están limpias, y los detectores de
humo tienen baterías nuevas. Gracias.

ORACION
ORACION POR LA ELECCION DE UN OBISPO
O Dios, pastor eterno, que gobiernas de tu rebaño
con cuidado infalible; concede en tu amor paternal
sin limites a un pastor para tu Iglesia, un pastor
quien te agrade por su santidad y para mostrarnos
atención vigilante. Por nuestro Señor Jesucristo, tu
Hijo, quien vive y reina contigo en la unidad del
Espíritu Santo, un solo Dios, por los siglos de los
siglos.
A través de nuestra encuesta de necesidades en que
pedimos a todos participar, hemos descubierto varias
necesidades que estamos tratando de resolver de diferentes maneras. Acabamos de tener nuestro primer
programa Manos para Ayudar de Santa Sabina el
Sábado 20 de Junio, donde voluntarios ayudaron a
otros feligreses con reparaciones del hogar y trabajo
del jardín. Estamos trabajando en hacer disponible un
libro gratuito de recursos para las personas de la tercera edad. En este libro usted podrá encontrar los recursos para el transporte, cuidado dentro del hogar,
actividades y entretenimiento para personas de la tercera edad, y muchos más.
En las próximas semanas, se puede esperar ver un
área de actualizaciones del proyecto "Ama al Prójimo"
establecido en el espacio de reunión. Aquí usted podrá
encontrar las encuestas de necesidades, que se puede llenar en cualquier momento, información e inscripciones para los proyectos actuales, y los libros de recursos antes mencionados.
Amen.
