To assist St. Augustine in administering to the sick we are asking your cooperation when submitting names for the Prayers of the Faithful and names to be added to the bulletin listing of the sick. The office staff will be requesting some details that will help determine the need for a clerical visit or assistance through a Eucharistic Minister for the homebound. The bulletin listing of the sick will be grouped bi-weekly so that we all can be aware of those newly added to the listing. The bulletin will maintain the listings for three months unless otherwise specified to be listed indefinitely. After three months names can be added once again if not otherwise listed as indefinite. Thank you for your assistance and cooperation.

EIGHTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME WORSHIP CHRISTIAN FORMATION Preparing for the Sunday readings Go to liturgy.slu.edu ENCOUNTER THE JOY OF THE GOSPEL Year Three: Equipping the Parish REFLECTION 18th Sunday in Ordinary Time "Take care to guard against all greed, for though one may be rich, one's life does not consist of possessions." This isn't a message that gets much advertising. On the contrary, just about every advertised message we hear comes from someone who wants to make money by selling us possessions. The message we hear loud and clear on television or Internet ads or on highway billboards or the back cover of magazines is that we need this product or that service in order to be happy. Professional marketers are in the business of creating a supposed need and then promising to fill it with their product. In today's culture, it's hard to remember that life isn't about possessions. But in this Gospel, Jesus reminds us that there is more to life than having "so many good things stored up for many years." All of this stuff-be it clothes, devices, equipment, decorations, entertainment centers, or anything else-does no lasting good if and when "this night your life will be demanded of you." Unlike the fool who spends all of his time, energy, and money building larger barns, we should focus our resources on becoming "rich in what matters to God." This means cultivating virtue instead of vice. It means sharing our money with those in need instead of hoarding it out of selfish greed. The call is a challenging one, and countercultural too. But Jesus never said that the Christian way was the way of the world. As St. Paul instructs us in today's epistle, "Put to death, then, the parts of you that are earthly." Instead of falling for the marketers' messages, may we have the wisdom to store up our treasure in heaven. Year of Mercy: Forgiveness is a decision not a feeling. Baptism Parent Preparation Class Reminder: Summer time class (2-part) will be held on July 24 and July 31 (this is a slight change) from 12:15-2:15pm in PC 1-2 for Class 1 and PC 3 for Class 2. Please contact the Parish Office (Wanda Alvarado at Extension 1110) as soon as possible to register for this program. Adult Confirmation If you are an adult Catholic desiring the Sacrament of Confirmation, please contact Angy Corrigan (ext. 1117) at the parish office for general information. Interested in the Catholic Faith? The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults process offers the opportunity to begin inquiry into the teachings and the practice of Catholicism. The program offers varied paths for individuals who are unbaptized, those baptized in another Christian faith tradition, or baptized Catholics who have limited upbringing in the Church. Questions are welcome, dialogue is encouraged, prayer and support are integral, and very individual spiritual journeys are the norm. Just curious? Just wondering? Really interested? A bit nervous? Married/engaged to a Catholic and/or children in the faith and in need of information? Attending Mass (perhaps for years!) and feeling awkward in stepping forward? Know a little and thinking it’s all a bit mysterious? For further details, and registration, contact Mary Anne Fighera at 2756701 or Kathy Jones at 748-5587. EveryWoman The EveryWoman book group will resume meeting on the 1st and 3rd Wednesdays at 6:30pm beginning on September 7th. Please contact the office if you are interested. WINGS’ (Women In God’s Spirit)— WINGS will resume on Wednesday September 7th at 9:45am in the church hall. We will have registration on August 20th & 21st and August 27th & 28th , after all masses - Saturday 5:30pm, Sunday 8:30am and 11:15pm . Also, registration will be done on Sept 7. All women are welcome! Please contact Sharon Harrison at 804-683-7199. ©Liturgical Publications Inc. DEACON CORNER: (BY DEACON AL) In this election year the question has been asked about clergy. Canon Law (285) directs that “clerics are to refrain completely from all those things which are unbecoming to their state, according to the prescripts of particular law.” The canon continues in §3: “Clerics are forbidden to assume public offices which entail a participation in the exercise of civil power,” and §4 forbids clerics from “secular offices which entail an obligation of rendering accounts…” Permanent deacons, although clerics, may participate in political life to a degree not permitted other clerics under the law. However, permanent deacons are required by particular law in the United States to obtain the prior written permission of their diocesan bishop to do so. The National Directory on the Formation, Ministry and Life of Permanent Deacons in the United States states (#91): "A permanent deacon may not present his name for election to any public office or in any other general election, or accept a nomination or an appointment to public office, without the prior written permission of the diocesan bishop. A permanent deacon may not actively and publicly participate in another’s political campaign without the prior written permission of the diocesan bishop.” Today, when political support is often reflected through the social media, deacons need to be careful and aware of how their opinions stated via these media may be viewed as active participation in someone’s political campaign. Children’s Liturgy “We need your help!” We now need many people to help with this very rewarding Ministry. It is a once a month commitment. You work in pairs and you do not have to go to another Mass. Training is provided and is very easy. Parents, teens, young adults why not go out with the children and see how easy it really is to share the Word with our children of St. Augustine. Contact the church office if you can help. All young adults (ages 18-30) ar e invited to join us for a ser ies of talks at Saint Mary Church (9505 Gayton Road, Henrico) starting on July 27th. The goal of this series is to explore the universal call to live a holy life in Christ. Each week, the speakers will share how they have said “yes” to a variety of vocations including the calls to marriage, parenthood, priesthood, and celibacy. Ordinary Holiness will begin with dinner at 7:00 pm, followed by the presentation from 7:30-9:00 pm. This series is sponsored by the Office for Evangelization and Saint Mary Parish. July 27: Our Daily Call to Holiness: Living our Baptismal Pr omises Speaker: Father Michael Renninger, Pastor of Saint Mary Parish in Richmond August 3: Discer ning & Living the Call to Celibacy and Priesthood Speaker: Father Joe Goldsmith, Parochial Vicar of Blessed Sacrament in Harrisonburg August 10: Discer ning & Living the Call to Mar r iage and Family Life Speaker: Bethany and Geoff Gasperini August 17: “The Jeweler’s Shop” Presented by: Richmond Catholic Theatre *No Dinner, performance at 7:00 pm, followed by a discussion.

Specifically, we need coordinators and volunteers for various tasks: cashiers, money collectors, security, parking, clean up, vendor table coordinator, food preparers, and people to staff the information booth. We need your help! There will be carnival rides, vendor tables, and lots of Spanish and carnival-type food. Your participation is needed to make this festival a great event.

THERE WILL BE A HEALING MASS IN ENGLISH ON TUESDAY, AUGUST 16TH AT 7PM REMEMBERING THE SICK: Each week we explicitly name thirty or more who have requested our prayers. Often the people improve with their illness yet remain as a part of the Prayers of the Faithful. There are situations where the person has passed away and yet remains as one of the sick. There are those who we should be praying for but the person elects to keep their illness personal and private. Overall management of the formal prayer for the sick as a part of the Prayers for the Faithful is difficult. Beginning in August we will continue to pray for all those who have asked our prayers with only mentioning those newly added during the previous two weeks. All others will be included in a general inclusion of “We pray for all those included on our sick list, especially for……..” We appreciate your understanding and cooperation. We are investigating the use of a “Special Intention Book” as a part of the Prayers of the Faithful. Please provide any feedback to the Worship committee via Deacon Al. PARISH FYI The “Graced By God” conference is coming up the last weekend in August. We encourage all catechists; children, youth, adult, and especially anyone who is new to the ministry; to attend this wonderful opportunity to hear a national speaker. This presentation is geared toward the catechists to help them bring renewed excitement and “new eyes” to their classes. The same presentation is being offered twice, once on Friday evening, August 26th at St. Edward - south of the river, and again on Saturday morning, August 27th at St. Mary - north of the river.

Eso de que ahorramos para nuestro retiro, de los tantos seguros de vida que nos ofrecen y compramos. Nos hacen vulnerables para pensar que la vida no se alarga con posesiones, sino que el dueño de la vida es Dios. No es que sea malo el tener, sino la confianza que se tiene en los bienes olvidando que el centro debe ser Dios. La lectura del Eclesiastés nos pone la vida como una vana ilusión, como un soplo transitorio que pasa aprisa. "Hay quien se agota trabajando y pone en ello todo su talento, su ciencia y su habilidad, y tiene que dejárselo todo a otro que no lo trabajó". Las cosas materiales son de carácter efímero. Se explica que será otro el que goce de los bienes sin haber trabajado para obtenerlos. Precisamente, por eso, son tan difíciles las herencias y repartición de bienes. ¿Has pensado en ello? ¿Tienes todo arreglado para el día que Dios llame a tu puerta? Jesús, por su parte, no se pone de lado de ninguno de los hermanos que piden la herencia, más bien les narra la parábola del hombre rico explicando que no está la vida en poseer, demostrándoles su ambición y el deseo de tener. Ahí es donde debe estar el cuidado de nuestra parte, no caer en la ambiciona y el poder. Porque con la muerte se termina todo el capital y los planes. Debemos luchar por ser ricos de lo que vale ante Dios. Valorar el amor, la misericordia, la justicia y compartiendo los bienes que Dios por su bondad nos ha dado. ©Liturgical Publications Inc.
