Page Two WELCOME TO ASSUMPTION OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY CHURCH September 11, 2016
Society of St. Vincent de Paul ~ Assumption BVM-Conference
The Society of Saint Vincent de Paul is very pleased to announce the arrival of a new minis-try, here at Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary Church. Assumption BVM -Conference is a new member serving as an extension of The Society of Saint Vincent de Paul, Los Angeles Council. We are now serving ABVM church and our parish community. Our Conference is composed of 30 members from Assumption Parish. We have committed ourselves to the mission of Saint Vincent de Paul, as first originated by our founder, Frederic Ozanam, in Paris over 200 years ago.
Last year globally, more than 160,000 Vincentians gave over 12 million hours of service to the needy. Leading with their faith and through their charitable works, they delivered sustenance,
gave hope, and promoted the dignity of their neighbors. Like Frederic Ozanam who ventured out into the streets of Paris 200 years before, Conference members on four continents went into their communities seeking out those who are des-perate and requiring assistance with basic human needs.
Your Assumption BVM-Conference has committed itself to carrying the “Light of Jesus” into our community, sharing our Catholic faith and delivering charitable works to those most in need. As we encounter people seeking assistance, we will ask if they wish to pray with us, but we will never proselytize. As we visit people in their homes or on the street, we will never be judgmental of lifestyle or social condition. We will always be compassionate and objective, and do our very best to find some service to provide based on our guidelines. We will serve Catholic and non-Catholic alike, and we will disavow no one.
At the beginning of the 20th Century, President Theodore Roosevelt was challenged by special interests regarding his use of the Antiquities Act to create and preserve national parks. In order to convey his penetrating foresight on why it was so important, he responded to his critics in a speech made in New York, “…we are not building a nation to last a day; but rather, we are building a nation to last an eternity”. Likewise, Assumption BVM-Conference has not opened its doors to help a mere handful of people for a year or two; but rather, we are building a High Impact Conference dedicat-ed to serving people for decades to come. This is the Vincentian tradition, and we pledge to carry it forward here at As-sumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary Church.
We are concerned with material poverty, social poverty, and people requiring assistance in finding needed government services, who for whatever reason can not help themselves. We may assist people without resources due to homeless-ness, sickness, or unemployment. We may visit the aged neighbor with dementia, and assist them with home safety issues. We can provide food assistance and other material help that meets an immediate need, such as paying a phone or electric bill. You will also soon find Assumption BVM-Conference engaged in collaboration with parish ministries or throughout the Conference district, with neighbors such as Five Acres or Friends In Deed. Eventually, we will involve the Conference in advocacy, not only serving the needy but lending our voice to their support and treatment.
What might Assumption Parish see in the coming months: 1) expect to see us involved in parish gift activities dur-ing Christmas 2) come join us for local restaurant fundraisers 3) we are working on “Catholic Day” Dodger game for next season 4) Valentine’s Day or March Madness Bingo 5) Inter-Faith “CROP Hunger Walk” in November 6) and early plan-ning stages for a Harvest Festival early October, 2017! You will also find us participating in seminars district wide and at the Los Angeles Council downtown.
Assumption BVM-Conference is a distinct entity and service. Even though we are an extension of The Society of Saint Vincent de Paul, we are not funded by them. We are tasked with raising our own funds and ensuring that monies are not hoarded. We have a mandate to put money donated to the Conference to work in the parish community in a timely manner. It is important to note, that 100% of all donations must be used directly in serving the needy. Your Confer-ence provides for its own expenses with a “secret collection”. No donations are used for managing the operation of the Conference.
You will find more information about Assumption BVM-Conference on the parish web page before the end of Septem-ber. As we progress with clients and activities throughout the year, we will be adding our visual narrative to our Face-book page as well. Please note too, that we have activated our Hotline: 626-657-0836.
You can support the Assumption BVM-Conference by using our Church Offering Envelope soon to be found in the church pews. Look for the envelope with our Saint Vincent de Paul logo. Thank you in advance for supporting our com-passionate tradition.
Lastly, allow our Conference to thank Father Gerard, Ms. Kathy Tracy, Sister Susan Slater, and Ms. Janet Perez for their gracious support and training. Our promise to all is to place our mission first and serve diligently with a compas-sionate heart. To each of you we are eternally grateful.
We are the Vincentians of the Society of Saint Vincent de Paul, Assumption BVM-Conference, and we have much to share.
Twenty-fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time Page Three
Tweet From Pope Francis
God is always moved to compassion whenever we repent. 9/7
G reetings my brothers and sisters in Christ,
Have you ever felt impatient? I have many times. I think it’s a very human reaction when things don’t go our way. When you are on the freeway in the fast lane and someone is driving at 30 miles an hour, the rule says slower autos move to the right, but this particular driver has no intention of moving! Maybe you are at the ATM machine and only one is working and someone in front of you takes an eternity to finish their business, impatience sets in pretty fast in those or similar situations.
The first Scripture reading today, from the Book of Exodus, gives us a glimpse of an impatient God. Can you believe it? This is not the first time that God seems to be impatient with His chosen people. The scene is set: Moses is on the mountain with God and God is getting upset with the people down below. They made a golden calf and honored it as their god. It takes Moses to plead with God not to put His wrath upon the people or punish them, but to give them another chance. Moses pleaded that God had chosen them in the past and promised them a land flowing with milk and honey where their descendants would flourish.
It takes one who is called by God, a human like us, Moses, to calm our God. We too, need one another in those moments of great impatience to calm us, to help us slow down, so that we can think in peace and make good decisions which lead to great happiness. So, our great God heeds the pleas of the innocent one, Moses, to protect all the people.
St. Paul, in the second reading today, thanks Jesus Christ for choosing him to be a disciple and being patient with him despite his background and evil ways. Remember Paul in his former way of life, before his conversion, was a soldier whose mission was to seek out all the early Christian believers and kill them. After his conversion by the Lord, he became the greatest proclaimer of the Kingdom of God. We can thank him for the faith we have today and for spreading it throughout the world.
Paul makes a great statement in this scripture which is so true of us today and needs to be reflected upon:
''I was once a blasphemer and a persecutor and arrogant, but I have been mercifully treated because I acted out of ignorance in my unbelief." (1 Timothy 1:13)
Often people do evil acts or make derogatory statements in ignorance of the true facts. Paul was a perfect example of this, but despite all those evil ways, he was treated mercifully and given another chance.
God will always give us another chance, but we too must be willing to change for the good. The Gospel today is a collection of situations where God is all forgiving, showing that God loves the sinner who is willing to repent. One sinner who turns to the good is more important than one thousand righteous people. You will hear the story of the lost sheep, the lost coin, and the very popular story of the Prodigal Son, all focused on something that's lost and found and then celebrated. God is looking out for all those who are lost in society and upon finding them and giving them another chance, rejoices in their presence.
If you feel you’re lost, sad, depressed, and wondering where God is in your life, in your struggles, in your sickness, in your doubts and fears, know that God is with you and around you, in one another, waiting for you to answer His call: I am here. God wants to rejoice in you, heal you and strengthen you. All you have to do is acknowledge our God who is all loving and forgiving.
B lessings upon all who worship here in this church
community, we need you all to participate fully in the Body of Christ. Thanks to the parish families for bringing your children to Mass on Sunday. I challenge all those others who we don't see at Mass on Sunday to make it a priority in their lives. We need you all here in one Spirit with the one Lord.
Please read the description of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul Conference that has organized in our parish. Thank you to all those who make up the conference, especially Robert Wyatt and Joan Feser who have taken
leadership positions.
Manny Soriano will be speaking at all Masses this weekend. He is looking for young adults who would like to be part of the young adult group in the parish. Thank you Manny, for taking leadership in this very wonderful ministry, since our young adults are an integral part of our parish community.
Let us pray for all those who lost family members in the tragedy on 9/11, and for peace in our world.
Welcome to any visitors here this weekend and all those of other faith beliefs, God bless you. To those homebound, we love you!
Love, Fr. Gerard

About the Knights of Columbus
Founded in 1882 by Venerable Fr. Michael J. McGivney as a lay organization, the goals of which were to prevent Catholic men from en-
tering secret societies whose membership was antithet-ical to Church teaching, to unite men of Catholic faith and to provide for the families of deceased members, the Knights of Columbus is now the largest fraternal Catholic lay organization in the world with almost 2 million mem-bers internationally.
Our Council 3571 is one of approximately 15,000 Coun-cils serving Knights, parishes and communities. June 30th marked the end of the Columbian year and we wish to thank Fr. Gerard and the entire parish for your support of our organization and our activities for the past year. Proceeds from such activities as the Pancake Breakfast, New Year’s Day Brunch and Parade Viewing, and other events enabled us to continue our sponsorship of our Seminarian, provide cash support to our School, scholar-ship programs for both the School and the Religious Ed-ucation Program, coats for kids donations, and cash sup-port to St. Anne’s home for at-risk pregnant young wom-en, mothers and children – and other charitable opportu-nities.
July marked the beginning of a new Columbian year and we are developing the continuation and expansion of our charitable works in the parish and community and in the expansion of our membership. We encourage all Catho-lic men in good standing to join us! Contact information is in the directory section of the bulletin and on the web-site.. Vivat Jesu! Peter J. Walker, Grand Knight Jerry L. Clyde, Prior Grand Knight, District Deputy, Trustee

DID YOU KNOW? Teach kids how to identify bullying Bullying is an unfortunate problem in schools across the country, and no matter how nice or friendly your children are, they are going to run across bullies. Whether your children are victimized by a bully or not, they should be aware of the classic signs of bully-ing—teasing, pushing, shoving, violence or threats of any kind, and more. While bullying does not always escalate to physical touching or violence, your children should be able to identify touches that they are uncomfortable with, and should know where to go to report issues. For more information, visit:https://www.faithandsafety.org/bullying.
