Welcome To Holy Rosary Parish Dear Friends,
We have cause to celebrate one of our own. This past Monday, Bishop Siegel celebrated the back to school Mass at St. Benedict Cathedral. There was an impressive gathering of school administrators, teachers and pastors from the Catholic Schools of our diocese. After Mass, we had an
opportunity to single out those catholic educators celebrating significant years of service.
Additionally, recipients of the Catholic Educator Innovative Award, which recognizes educators within the Diocese of Evansville who employ novel and innovative efforts to achieve success in
student learning and/or promotes growth for the school were recognized. Nominees often
contribute innovatively in the following areas:
x Marketing Catholic school
x Promoting Catholic identity
x Curriculum and instruction facilitated by technology
x Total community involvement (including service and fundraising)
x Creative learning environments.
This past year, because of the unique challenges COVID presented to our Catholic Schools, a committee established by the Catholic School Office made a special effort to recognize people who were really making a difference dealing with these challenges. I’m proud to tell you that Joe Holtz, our Parish Manager, was selected as one of this year’s Catholic Educator Innovative Award recipients. Congratulations Joe! It’s great to see that others outside our parish recognize what many of us have long known, the blessing you are to Holy Rosary Parish and our School.
Christ’s peace, Fr. Bernie

Queridos amigos,
Tenemos motivos para celebrar a uno de los nuestros. El pasado lunes, el Obispo Siegel celebró la Misa de regreso a clases en la Catedral de San Benito. Hubo un gran número de asistentes entre ellos administradores escolares, maestros y pastores de las Escuelas Católicas de nuestra diócesis. Después de la Misa, tuvi- mos la oportunidad de nombrar a los educadores católicos que celebran importantes años de ser- vicio. Además, se reconoció a los ganadores del Premio al Educador Católico Innovador, que reconoce a los educadores dentro de la Diócesis de Evansville que emplean esfuerzos novedosos e innovadores para lograr el éxito en el aprendiza- je de los estudiantes y/o promueven el crecimiento de la escuela. Los nominados a menudo con- tribuyen de manera innovadora en las siguientes áreas:
x Comercialización de la escuela católica • Promoción de la identidad católica
x Plan de estudios e instrucción facilitados por la tecnología
x Participación total de la comunidad (incluidos servicios y recaudación de fondos)
x Ambientes de aprendizaje creativos.
El año pasado, debido a los desafíos que el COVID presentó a nuestras Escuelas Católicas, un comité establecido por la Oficina de Escuelas Católicas hizo un esfuerzo especial para reconocer a las personas que realmente estaban haciendo una diferencia al enfrentar estos de- safíos. Me enorgullece decirles que Joe Holtz, nuestro Gerente Parroquial, fue seleccionado co- mo uno de los ganadores del Premio al Educador Católico Innovador de este año. ¡Felicitaciones Joe! Es grandioso ver que otras personas fuera de nuestra parroquia reconocen lo que muchos de nosotros sabemos desde hace mucho tiempo, la bendición que son para la parroquia Holy Rosary y nuestra escuela.

Our First Christian Steward: The Blessed Virgin Mary People of God
On August 15 we celebrate the Feast of the Assumption; the day we recall Our Blessed Mother being assumed into heaven and crowned queen. In the Gospel reading on this day we hear proclaimed once again the Canticle of Mary, recorded in the Gospel of Luke (1:46-55). It is the Virgin Mary’s song of joy in response to her cousin Elizabeth’s greeting (Luke 1: 41-45), and summarizes Mary’s deep faith and trust in God. This joyous song is also known as the Magnificat, from the opening line of scripture’s Latin translation which means “My soul magnifies the Lord” (“Magnificat anima mea Dominum”). The Magnificat is a beautiful
stewardship prayer used by the Church every day since the fifth century. It is a hymn at Evening Prayer in the Liturgy of the Hours. The Catechism of the Catholic Church teaches us that the Magnificat: … is the song both of the Mother of God and of the Church; the song of the Daughter of Zion and of the new; the song of thanksgiving for the fullness of graces poured out in the economy of salvation and the song of the “poor” whose hope is met by the fulfillment… (#2619). Among the many stewardship themes in this reading, the prayer helps us realize that God’s stewardship plan turns the world’s values upside down. God comes to the aid of the poor and lowly, to the detriment of the rich and powerful. And for those who entrust their lives to the Lord, they are filled with good things. As a young woman, humble and poor, Mary becomes an interpreter of God’s plan of salvation, she reveals to us the fundamentals of good stewardship, and she becomes a prophetic witness to social justice for all future generations who
“will call me blessed” (Luke 1: 48). Mary was the first disciple, the first Christian steward of God’s plan. Take a few moments and pray this stewardship prayer. Consider its implications for your life. How do you magnify the Lord? How do you make God
“bigger” in your day-to-day world? How do you bring God’s compassion to the poor?

Nineteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time Weekend of August 7-8, 2021 The Letter to the Ephesians urges us to be mindful that part of our life together in the Eucharist means being kind to one another,
compassionate and forgiving, just as Christ has forgiven us. What can we do this week to show our kindness, compassion and forgiving attitude toward others in our family of faith? How can we be even better stewards of our faith community as, what St.
Paul refers to as “Imitators of God?”
