Fifteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time | Bulletin of July 13, 2025 Word from the Pastor
My Dear Family of Our Lady of Lourdes,
Upon arriving home, I was happy to hear how well Fr. Milton was received here at Our Lady of Lourdes. No, I am not confused. Yes, I am pleased that Fr. Eduardo already feels at home, in large part because of you, but I am talking about Fr. Milton Martinez, the Director of Vocations for the Archdiocese of Miami who celebrated Masses here last weekend.
Fr. Milton knows us well. He is our neighbor and lives at St. Thomas the Apostle Parish, and he has been with us on the pilgrimage to Lourdes. He gets us and appreciates our missionary spirit. As Director of Vocations, he was particularly happy that we have the Vocations Chalice at every Mass and is asking us all to say a Hail Mary each day for vocations to the priesthood, diaconate, and religious life.
I am grateful to Lucas Rassi for making another set of Vocations Chalices for us as his Eagle Scout project. He is well on his way to raising the necessary funds for the chalices and we can help move the project forward by contributing through his Go Fund Me page: https://gofund.me/550f6b13. We have more information about the project on the website of the parish.
Fr. Milton is also inviting our young men ages 17 to 35 to attend the next Vocation Awareness Weekend, taking place November 14 -16, 2025 at St. John Vianney College Seminary here in Miami. I know that there are many of you who have felt that stirrings of the Spirit and wonder whether it is an authentic call. The answer to that questions comes through the journey, not all at once. A nice touching stone for discernment is the Vocation Awareness Weekend. Don’t be shy, go check it out! There is more information about registration on the website of the Archdiocese of Miami, and we will have it on our website as well.
If any of our young men and women would like to discuss discernment of their call, I am happy to meet with you and I am sure that Fr. Milton would also be happy to help. Let us keep Fr. Milton and his ministry in our prayers, and may it bear great fruit among us!
God bless,
Msgr. Schwanger
Pastor
