Welcome to St. Luke’s at Immaculate Conception.
We are delighted to have you with us. We are a parish of the

which was established on January 1, 2012 by Pope Benedict XVI in response to
repeated requests by Anglicans seeking to become Catholic.
Ordinariate parishes are fully Catholic while retaining elements of
their Anglican heritage and traditions, including liturgical traditions.
If you are visiting,
please introduce yourself to the priest and
join us for refreshments after the Mass
in the school auditorium.

Today is Thanksgiving Sunday On the last Sunday of every month we observe Thanksgiving Sunday, when we make a return to the Lord for all He has given us. Has the Lord blessed you in this past month? A second collection at the end of communion this morning is your opportunity to make an offering in gratitude. Corporal Work of Mercy for July: Food Pantry Restocking Immaculate Conception operates an emergency food pantry for people in need who live within a twenty-block radius of the church. Our corporal act of mercy for July is helping to restock the pantry. Canned foods and other non-perishables such as rice or spaghetti are appropriate and welcome. Contributions will be collected at the coffee hour or in the vestibule during the month of July, and we will give them to the pantry at the end of the month. We hope all members of the parish will participate. Fr. Vidal To Visit us Next Sunday Fr. John Vidal, our incoming pastor, will be in town next week to prepare for his move to Washington in October. He will celebrate our 8:30 am mass with us. Come and meet him next Sunday. Plan to linger at coffee hour and help him to get to know his new parish family.

Know Your Faith Ignatius of Loyola [c. October 23, 1491 – July 31, 1556] was a Spanish Basque priest and theologian, who founded the religious order called the Society of Jesus (Jesuits) and became its first Superior General. The Jesuit order served the Pope as missionaries, and they were bound by a vow of special obedience to the sovereign pontiff in regard to the missions. They therefore emerged as an important political force during the time of the Counter-Reformation.
Ignatius is remembered as a talented spiritual director. He recorded his method in a celebrated treatise called the Spiritual Exercises, a simple set of meditations, prayers, and other mental exercises, first published in 1548.
Ignatius was beatified in 1609, and then canonized, receiving the title of Saint on March 12, 1622. His feast day is celebrated on July 31. He is the patron saint of the Basque provinces of Guipuzkoa and Biscay as well as the Society of

Amen.
sit First Reading 1 Kings 3: 5, 7-12 In those days: At Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night; and God said, "Ask what I shall give you." And Solomon said, “O LORD my God, you have made your servant king in place of David my father, although I am but a little child; I do not know how to go out or come in. And your servant is in the midst of your people whom you have chosen, a great people, that cannot be numbered or counted for multitude. Give your servant therefore an understanding mind to govern your people, that I may discern between good and evil; for who is able to govern this great people of yours?" It pleased the Lord that Solomon had asked this. And God said to him, "Because you have asked this, and have not asked for yourself long life or riches or the life of your enemies, but have asked for yourself understanding to discern what is right, behold, I now do according to your word. Behold, I give you a wise and discerning mind, so that none like you has been before you and none like you shall arise after you.”
all Appointed Psalm Psalm 119: 57, 72, 76-77, 127-139 THOU art my portion, O Lord; * I have promised to keep thy law. The law of thy mouth is dearer unto me * than thousands of gold and silver. O let thy merciful kindness be my comfort, * according to thy word unto thy servant. O let thy loving mercies come unto me, that I may live; * for thy law is my delight. For I love thy commandments * above gold and precious stones. Therefore hold I straight all thy commandments; * and all false ways I utterly abhor. Thy testimonies are wonderful; * therefore doth my soul keep them. When thy word goeth forth, * it giveth light and understanding unto the simple.
Second Reading Romans 8: 28-30 Brethren: We know that in everything God works for good with those who love him, who are called according to his purpose. For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the first-born
Jesus, and was declared patron saint of all spiritual retreats by Pope Pius XI in 1922. Ignatius is also a foremost patron saint of soldiers.

Feast of Our Lady of the Angels of the Portiuncula Vigil: August 1st, 7 pm Mass: August 2nd, 7 am On the grounds of the Franciscan Monastery of the Holy Land in America [1400 Quincy Street NE], there is a replica of the chapel of St. Mary of the Angels in Assisi, known as the Portiuncula (“little portion”). St. Francis obtained from the pope the privilege of a plenary indulgence for visiting the original chapel between the afternoon of August 1st and sunset August 2nd. This indulgence has been extended to all Franciscan churches on August 1 and 2. The Franciscan Monastery offers Evening Prayer for the vigil at 7 pm, Tuesday, August 1, in their Portiuncula Chapel; on the feast day, Wednesday, August 2nd, there will be a Mass in the Portiuncula Chapel at 7 am. The faithful who meet the usual conditions of Communion, Confession, and praying for the Pope’s intentions can receive the plenary indulgence, known as the Pardon of Assisi (or Portiuncula Indulgence), that day.

stand Gospel Matthew 13: 44-52 At that time: Jesus said to the crowds, “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and covered up; then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls, who, on finding one pearl of great value, went and sold all that he had and bought it. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net which was thrown into the sea and gathered fish of every kind; when it was full, men drew it ashore and sat down and sorted the good into vessels but threw away the bad. So it will be at the close of the age. The angels will come out and separate the evil from the righteous, and throw them into the furnace of fire; there men will weep and gnash their teeth. Have you understood all this?” They said to him, “Yes.” And he said to them, “Therefore every scribe who has been trained for the kingdom of heaven is like a householder who brings out of his treasure what is new and what is old.”
