Feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin, Mary
August 15
Holy Day of Obligation
In recent weeks, we have reviewed how the Churches of
East and West have enriched one another, and this Thursday's solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin
Mary was born in the Eastern Church. It is a gift from the
ancient Church of Jerusalem, a commemoration of the
death of Mary, and a feast charged with a deep sense of
the Resurrection. Mary, the first disciple, is the first to
share fully in Christ's victory over death. In the tradition
of the East, today is the "Dormition of the Theotokos," or
the "Falling Asleep of the God-bearer." There is no shadow
of death or gloom in the theology, since this is seen as a
transformation of Mary's life into a heavenly and immortal
existence. There is a sense in the tradition that she who
made earth heavenly and exalted the human race by her
faithfulness is glorified today.
A persistent legend among Orthodox Christians tells how
all the disciples, except Thomas, who was preaching in
India, were present at Mary's death and burial, and sat by
the tomb for three days. On the third day, Thomas saw
Mary's body rising to heaven. She greeted him as "my
friend," and he was escorted by angels to proclaim her
assumption to the others, who then realized her tomb was
empty. Thus Thomas, the one who expressed doubt at the
resurrection of Christ, received a gift from Mary: the
chance to proclaim resurrection faith to the disciples.

New Minor Basilica for Diocese of Raleigh
Saint Mary, Wilmington
Bishop Burbidge has announced tht the Congregation for
Divine Worship and Disciplines of the Sacraments issued the
Decree granting the title of Minor Basilica to the parish
church of St. Mary in Wilmington. From August 4th forward,
the parish will be called the Basilica Shrine of Saint Mary.
Saint Mary Church was granted this designation because of
its historical significance to the Diocese and its worthiness of
art and architecture. This designation also acknowledges the
parishioners who over the last 100 years have demonstrated
a deep dedication to the Church, her Magisterium, to the
Holy Father, and to the Catholic Faith.
In granting this title, the Church intends to strengthen the
relationship of the Basilica Shrine of Saint Mary with the
Chair of Peter and to make the Basilica a center of special
liturgical and pastoral ministry in our Diocese. In his letter
with the Decree, Archbishop Arthur Roche, Secretary to the
Congregation of Diving Worship and Discipline of the Sacraments stated his hope that the “granting of the honorific title
[of Basilica] will be helpful for the deepening of the liturgical
life centered upon the new Minor Basilica.”
Bishop Burbidge asks that we join him, along with the parish
community of the Basilica Shrine of Saint Mary, and the entire Diocese in thanks to God for His goodness and to the
Holy See for this honor

Operation School Choice
Every large city in America has dozens and dozens of high
schools in it. And in these schools the students are taught a
great many things across a large number of subjects. Of
course, schools are where the young go to get educated;
they are where various views and perspectives are openly
discussed and where adolescent minds begin to form opinions that will likely stay with them throughout their entire
lives. But what do these same students know about the
grim reality of abortion? What open discussions are they
having in their sex education classrooms about the fact
that 1/3 of all teen pregnancies end in abortion and that
teenagers account for over 20% of all abortions in America
annually? The Center for Bio-Ethical Reform knows the sad
answer to these questions and that is why it has developed
“Operation School Choice.”
For more information on “Operation School Choice” go to
http://www.prolifearticles.com
Please, Pray the Rosary for an end to
abortion.

Series on Comprehensive Immigration Reform
Week 8: Immigration and Economy
Keeping Spirit and Faith in Education
The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops supports
immigration reform that is comprehensive in nature and
that facilitates the following goals:
•
•
•
•
Saint Mary School
Opens Wednesday, August 14th
We are so happy to have you back!
What is on the calendar for the first week of school:
•
Thursday, August 15th is the Feast of the Assumption of
the Blessed Virgin Mary and a Holy Day of Obligation.
Our students will attend the 9:00am Mass.
•
Thursday is also our First Bake Sale of the year and the
7th grade students will kick off this fundraiser for the
year.
•
Wednesday, August 21st we will have Fall Pictures.
•
Provides a path to citizenship for undocumented persons in our country;
Preserves family unity as a corner-stone of our national
immigration system;
Provides legal paths for low-skilled immigrant workers
to come and work in the United States;
Restores due process protection to our immigration
enforcement policies; assurance that our laws are enforced in ways that recognize the importance the sanctity of the human person, the incomparable value of the
family and maintains the integrity of our national borders;
Addresses the root causes of migration, such as persecution and economic disparity.
Immigrant workers generally do not compete with citizens
of our country for unskilled jobs. Immigrant workers fill crucial jobs in important industries that many citizens of our
country will not fill, such as in the agricultural industries. By
enacting immigration reform, both the wages of citizens and
those of immigrant workers will increase, as the pool of unauthorized workers is reduces. To learn more about the
teaching of the Church on immigration or to be involved in
advocacy, go to: www.usccb.org/about/migration-andrefugee-services/index.cfm#immigration.

PREPARACIÓN
Imagínate la siguiente escena: estás sentado en tu pupitre
en la escuela. La maestra camina por el pasillo, y coloca el
examen delante de ti, volteado hacia abajo. Preparas tu reloj.
Tienes exactamente una hora para completar ese examen.
Volteas el papel. Y entonces te das cuenta: nunca tomaste
apuntes. Nunca estudiaste ni hiciste tareas. Para un estudiante, la falta de preparación es la pesadilla de pesadillas.
En el Evangelio de hoy, Jesús habla de la necesidad de prepararse. Dios estará encantado de darnos el reino, dice Jesús. “con la túnica puesta y las lámparas encendidas.” Prepárate.
Las enseñanzas de Jesús nos recuerdan la pregunta que una
vez le hicieron a san Francisco de Sales y sus compañeros,
que, de acuerdo a la historia, estaban jugando billar. “¿Qué
harían si les dijeran que el fin del mundo llegará en una hora?”
Los amigos de san Francisco empezaron a conjeturar sobre
cómo pondrían sus asuntos en orden. Casi todos mencionaron
la oración. Francisco se encogió de hombros: “Yo seguiría haciendo lo mismo que hago ahora.” ¿Estás tú listo para encontrarte con el Señor?

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
Hace casi 2000 años, Jesús declaró que “los zorros tienen
guaridas, y las aves del cielo sus nidos; pero el Hijo del hombre no tiene donde reclinar la cabeza”. Lamentablemente en
las calles y callejones del mundo este dicho se realiza diariamente en tantos abandonados por la sociedad que viven sin
techo ni hogar. En los años 40 el santo jesuita, Alberto Hurtado de Chile quiso darle al Hijo del hombre un lugar donde
reclinar su cabeza recogiendo a los niños y a los adultos indigentes.
Su ejemplo llamó la atención de otros cristianos que se unieron a sus esfuerzos y así en 1944 fundaron la asociación
benéfica “Hogar de Cristo”. Este hogar se dedica aun todavía
a acoger, educar y rehabilitar a los necesitados dándoles las
herramientas necesarias para poder depender de si mismos.
También vela por sus almas dándoles una formación total de
cuerpo, alma y espíritu.
En fin, el Hogar de Cristo se dedica a difundir la realidad de
los pobres por medio de nuestro llamado bautismal a la responsabilidad que tenemos en darle al Hijo de hombre un
lugar para reclinar su cabeza.

Decimonoveno Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario
Los sacramentos están ordenados a la santificación de los hombres, a la edificación del
Cuerpo de Cristo y, en definitiva, a dar culto
a Dios; pero, en cuanto signos, también
tienen un fin pedagógico. No sólo suponen la
fe, sino que, a la vez, la alimentan, la robustecen y la expresan por medio de
palabras y de cosas; por esto se llaman sacramentos de la
"fe". Confieren ciertamente la gracia, pero también su celebración prepara perfectamente a los fieles para recibir fructuosamente la misma gracia, rendir el culto a dios y practicar la caridad. Por consiguiente, es de suma importancia
que los fieles comprendan fácilmente los signos sacramentales y reciban con la mayor frecuencia posible aquellos
sacramentos que han sido instituidos para alimentar la vida
cristiana. Encarnación y la Navidad hasta la Ascensión, Pentecostés y la expectativa de la dichosa esperanza y venida
del Señor.
Sacrosanctum Concilium: V. The Liturgical Year (¶102)
Sacrosanctum Concilium: III. The Other Sacraments and
the Sacramentals (¶58)
La santa madre Iglesia considera deber suyo celebrar con
un sagrado recuerdo en días determinados a través del año
la obra salvífica de su divino Esposo. Cada semana, en el
día que llamó «del Señor», conmemora su Resurrección,
que una vez al año celebra también, junto con su santa
Pasión, en la máxima solemnidad de la Pascua. Además, en
el círculo del año desarrolla todo el misterio de cristo, desde
la Encarnación y la Navidad hasta la Ascensión, Pentecostés
y la expectativa de la dichosa esperanza y venida del Señor.
