Parish Family Mass and Confession Schedule

FROM FR. OAKLAND

As our nation celebrates 250 years of independence, I would like to share some of the stories of our Catholic heroes and heroines. I will begin this week with the stories of some of our martyrs, who in shedding their blood provided seeds of the Church.

Fr. Alex Padilla, OFM left life as a soldier to became a Franciscan priest. He left Spain for Mexico, making a number of missionary trips around the country for the next decade, and accompanying several military expeditions, and founding two convent. He then accompanied the explorer Coronado in search of the fantastical Seven Cities of Gold. After giving up the search and continuing to explore, they were tipped off to a possible place with gold, and made their way to the native village in Kansas they were directed to. After a month with no success, they continued on with their explorations. When Coronado finally decided to depart back for Mexico, the three Franciscans decided to return to Kansas and continue their work sharing the Gospel with the native peoples. In 1542, after preaching to the Quivira peoples for some time, Fray Padilla decided to take the Good News to a neighboring tribe, despite their reputation for violence. While on their way, he was killed – the protomartyr of our nation.

Reading 1 Hosea 11:1-4, 8e-9 Thus says the LORD:When Israel was a child I loved him, out of Egypt I called my son.The more I called them,the farther they went from me,Sacrificing to the Baalsand burning incense to idols.Yet it was I who taught Ephraim to walk,who took them in my arms;I drew them with human cords,with bands of love;I fostered them like onewho raises an infant to his cheeks;Yet, though I stooped to feed my child,they did not know that I was their healer.My heart is overwhelmed,my pity is stirred.I will not give vent to my blazing anger,I will not destroy Ephraim again;For I am God and not man,the Holy One present among you;I will not let the flames consume you. Responsorial Psalm Psalm 80:2ac, 3b, 15-16 R. (4b) Let us see your face, Lord, and we shall be saved.O shepherd of Israel, hearken.From your throne upon the cherubim, shine forth.Rouse your power.R. Let us see your face, Lord, and we shall be saved.Once aga
