5 SAINT MARY MACKILLOP ( ) Feast Day 19 July As a young woman she was drawn to religious life but could not find an existing order of Sisters that met her needs. In 1860 she met Father Julian Woods, who became her spiritual director. Together they founded a new community of women the Sisters of St. Joseph of the Sacred Heart, also known as the Josephite Sisters. Its members were to staff schools especially for poor children, as well as orphanages, and do other works of charity. Mary insisted that her congregation should be governed by an elected mother general answerable to Rome. Rome proved to be Mary s best source of support. After a long wait, official approval of the congregation and how it was to be governed came from Pope Leo XIII. Mary MacKillop and her Sisters were able to offer social services that few, if any, government agencies in Australia could. They served Protestants and Catholics alike. They worked among the aborigines. They taught in schools and orphanages and served unmarried mothers. Money was a constant worry. But the Sisters, who begged from door to door, were bolstered by faith and by the conviction that their struggles were opportunities to grow closer to God. By the time Mary was approaching the end of her life, the congregation was thriving. She died in 1909 at the age of 67. Pope John Paul II beatified her in In 2010, when Pope Benedict XVI canonized her, she became Australia s first saint. David Gonzales and Frances Brown July 23, 2016 From Pope Francis in the encyclical Laudato Si (2015) paragraph 64 / presented by Social Justice Ministry of C- IHM The work of the Church seeks not only to remind everyone of the duty to care for nature, but at the same time she must above all protect mankind from self-destruction. De parte del Papa Francisco en la encíclica Laudato Si (2015) del párrafo 6/presentada por el Ministerio de Justicia Social de IHMC. El trabajo de la Iglesia no sólo trata de recordar a todos el deber de cuidar la naturaleza, sino al mismo tiempo, "ella debe proteger sobre todo al hombre de la auto destrucción". Did you know? Several years ago the Church changed the requirement of abstaining from meat on Fridays outside of the Lenten season. However, the church said that all Fridays are still meant to be special days of penance. In other words, you may choose to abstain from meat or substitute some other form of penance. For example, you could do some form of fasting, you could go out of your way to visit a sick or elderly person, you could give up T.V. or other forms of entertainment, etc. The choice is yours, but all Fridays should still be penitential days. Sabías? Hace varios años la Iglesia cambió el requisito de abstenerse de comer carne los viernes fuera de la temporada de Cuaresma. Sin embargo, la iglesia, dijo que todos los viernes todavía están destinados a ser los días especiales de penitencia. En otras palabras, usted puede optar por abstenerse de comer carne o sustituir alguna otra forma de penitencia. Por ejemplo, se podría hacer algún tipo de ayuno, se podía ir a visitar a una persona enferma o de edad avanzada, puede renunciar a ver la televisión u otras formas de entretenimiento, etc. La elección es suya, pero todos los viernes deben ser aún días penitenciales.
