Act of Consecration to the Sacred Heartcomposed by Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque

the visionary of the Sacred Heart, 1675I give myself and consecrate to the Sacred Heart of Our Lord Jesus Christ, my person and my life, my actions, pain and sufferings, so that I may be unwilling to make use of any part of my being except to honor, love and glorify the Sacred Heart.

This is my unchanging purpose, namely, to be all His, and to do all things for the love of Him, at the same time renouncing with all my heart whatever is displeasing to Him.

I therefore take you, O Sacred Heart, to be the only object of my love, the guardian of my life, my assur-ance of salvation, the remedy of my weakness and inconstancy, the atonement for all the faults of my life and my sure refuge at the hour of death.

Be then, O Heart of goodness, my justification before God your Father, and turn away from me His just punish-ment. O Heart of love, I put all my confidence in you, for I fear everything from my own faults and weakness, but I hope for all things from your goodness and abundance.

Consume in me all that can resist your holy will; let your pure love imprint you so deeply upon my heart, that I shall nevermore by able to forget you or be separated from you. May I obtain from your lov-ing kindness the grace of having my name written in you, for in you I desire to place all my happiness and all my glory, living and dying in service to you. Amen.

Act of ReparationMy loving Jesus, out of the grateful love I bear you, and to make reparation for my unfaithfulness to grace, I give you my heart and I consecrate myself completely to you. With your help, I promise to sin no more. Amen.

Acto de Consagración al Sagrado Corazóncompuesta por Santa Margarita Maria Alacoque

vidente del Sagrado Corazón, 1675Yo me entrego y me consagro al Sagrado Corazón de Nuestro Señor Jesucristo, mi persona y mi vida, mis acciones, dolor y sufrimientos, deseando que ninguna parte de mi ser me sirva si no es para honrar,

amar y glorificar al Sagrado Corazón.Esta es mi voluntad irrevocable, hacer todo por amor

a Él, al mismo tiempo renunciar con todo mi corazón todo lo que sea desagradable para Él.

Te elijo, pues, oh Sagrado Corazón, ser el único objeto de mi amor, protector de mi vida, prenda de mi salvación, remedio de mi debilidad e inconstancia, la expiación por las faltas de mi vida y mi refugio seguro a la hora de mi muerte.

Se pues, oh bondadísimo Corazón, mi justificación ante Dios Padre y aparta de mí Su justo castigo. Oh Corazón amoroso, pongo toda mi confianza en Ti, pues, aunque temo todo de mi flaqueza y defectos, sin embargo, todo lo espero de Tu bondad y abundancia.

Consume en mí todo lo que pueda desagradar tu Santísima voluntad; que Tu amor puro se imprima tan íntimamente en mi corazón, que yo nunca jamás pueda olvidarme de Ti o estar separado de Ti. Te suplico, por Tu misma bondad, la gracia de tener mi nombre escrito en Ti porque en Ti deseo poner mi felicidad y toda mi gloria, viviendo y muriendo en Tu servicio. Amén.

Acto de ReparaciónMi Jesús amoroso, de mi amor agradecido y para hacer reparación por mi infidelidad a la gracia, te doy mi corazón y me consagro totalmente a Ti. Con tu ayuda prometo no pecar más. Amén.

Dear parishioners,The restoration of the Crucifix in the sanctuary is completed. This Crucifix has been placed above the Altar since 1941 when Santa Cruz Church was established in the first church and now in the second church.

The cross is made of solid cherry wood. The dark finish, which was applied to the cross over the years, was removed and the wood was sanded to accommodate a new finish to match the golden wood tones of the church building. It was also sealed to protect the new finish over the years. Please note that the shiny look of the finish will change over the next four to six weeks to a softer appearance. The body of Christ or the corpus was repaired and retouched lightly with paint to correct chips and cracks that developed over the years. Special attention was given to accenting the crown of thorns and the anatomy of the body of Jesus. Additionally, the plaque at the top of the cross was refinished to reveal more clearly the letters: INRI. This is an acronym for the Latin inscription placed above the Cross, on the hill of Calvary: Iesus Nazorean Rex Iudeorum (Jesus Christ King of the Jews).

The restoration of the Crucifix including the refinishing of the wood and the repair and retouching of the corpus was given entirely gratis by our parishioners who accomplished this work. I want to offer my sincere appreciation and a remembrance in my prayers to all of our parishioners who work with love and caring to honor our Catholic Faith at Santa Cruz Church.

Many truly beautiful prayers have been written to honor the Cross of Christ. Among the most famous was composed more than 1,400 years ago, by a monk named Venantius Fortunatus:

“Cross, most fruitful, you are the noblest tree of all. No other tree can compare with your leaves, your flower and your fruit.”

Venantius compares the Cross of Christ to a tree. We can trace this imagery to the Garden of Eden in the Book of Genesis. But, instead of a fruit which was forbidden to Adam and Eve and when eaten brought Original Sin into the human story, this Tree, the Tree of the Cross produces leaves, fruits and flowers which bring salva-tion to every person who partakes of the Eucharist!

Your pastor,Father David.

Queridos feligreses,Se ha terminado la restauración del crucifijo en el Santuario. Este crucifijo se ha colocado sobre el Altar desde 1941 cuando la Iglesia Santa Cruz se estableció en la primera iglesia o misión y ahora en la segunda iglesia.

La cruz es hecha de madera sólida de cerezo. El acabado oscuro, que se le aplicó a la cruz durante los años, se ha lijado para acomodar un nuevo acabado que coincida con los tonos dorados de madera del edificio de la iglesia. También fue sellada para proteger el acabado nuevo en los próximos años. Tenga en cuenta que el aspecto brillante final cambiará durante las próximas cuatro a seis semanas a un aspecto más suave. El cuerpo de Cristo o corpus fue reparado y ligeramente retocado con pintura para corregir aberturas y grietas que se vertieron con los años. Se prestó atención especial a la acentuación de la corona de espinas y la anatomía del cuerpo de Jesús. Adicionalmente, la placa en la parte superior de la Cruz fue re-acabada para revelar más claramente las letras: INRI. Este es un acrónimo para la inscripción en latín colocado sobre la Cruz, en el Monte del Calvario: Iesus Nazorean Rex Iudeorum (Jesucristo Rey de los Judíos).

La restauración del Crucifijo, como el acabado de la madera y la reparación y retoque del corpus, fue hecho totalmente gratis por los feligreses que hacen esta clase de trabajo. Quiero ofrecerles mi más sincero agradecimiento y un recuerdo en mis oraciones a todos nuestros feligreses que trabajan con amor y cuidado en honor a nuestra fe católica en la Iglesia Santa Cruz.

Se han escrito muchas oraciones verdaderamente hermosas en honor a la Cruz de Cristo. Entre las más famosas, una fue compuesta hace más de 1,400 años por un monje, llamado Venantius Fortunatus:

“Cruz, más fructífera, tú eres el árbol más noble de todos. Ningún otro árbol puede compararse a tus hojas, tu flor y tu fruto.”

Venantius compara la Cruz de Cristo a un árbol. Podemos trazar estas imágenes al Jardín del Edén en el libro de Génesis. Pero, en lugar de un fruto que fue prohibido para Adán y Eva, y el cual trajo el pecado Original a la historia humana, ¡este árbol, el árbol de la Cruz, produce hojas, frutos y flores que traen la salvación a toda persona que participa en la Eucaristía!

Su párroco,Padre David.

A NotefromOurPastor

NotadeNuestroPárroco


CHURCH PAVERSThe Altar Society is once again presenting to our parishioners the availability to purchase engraved pavers that connect the Church to the Education Building, Deane Hall and the PAC (the church busi-ness hub). These are a wonderful way for remembering people. One of our donors now orders one in remembrance of a dear friend’s passing. There had been an absence of ordering these because of the change in the manufacturer. They are once again up and running and we pay the same price as we had originally negotiated. We have received a number of requests and have decided that we will order the first “batch” by the end of February. If you are interested in purchasing one of the pavers, please submit your order and check or money to the office (or you can drop in the church collection basket in an envelope marked “Church Pavers”). These forms are in the back of the Church or at the office. Thank you.

ADOQUINES/LADRILLOS DE LA IGLESIAUna vez más la Sociedad del Altar presenta a los feligreses de Santa Cruz, la oportunidad de comprar ladrillos o adoquines con su mensaje personalizado inscrito, los cuales conectan a la Iglesia con el Edificio de Educación, Salón Parroquial Deane y el PAC (el centro de actividades de la Iglesia). Esta es una manera maravillosa para recordar a sus seres queri-dos. Uno de nuestros donantes ahora ordena un adoquín en recuerdo de un querido amigo(a) que haya fallecido. Por un tiempo no se podían ordenar estos adoquines debido al cambio del fabricante. Ahora que el fabricante original ha reanudado su negocio podremos ordenar una vez más pagando el mismo precio. Hemos recibido varios pedidos y se ha decidido ordenar el primer “lote” a fines de febrero. Si usted está interesado en adquirir uno de estos adoquines, por favor envíe su orden y cheque o dinero a la oficina (o también lo puede entregar en la canasta de la colecta, en un sobre rotulado “Adoquines de la Iglesia”). Estos formularios se encuentran en la parte posterior de la Iglesia o en la oficina. Gracias.


Dear parishioners,New CarpetThe installation of new carpet in our parish church takes place this week. Since October 30, 2015 when a severe rain caused flooding in the church and damaged the carpet, a plan has developed to address the drainage issues and to replace the carpet.

The rainwater, which flows down the large area of the roof of the church, causes an accumulation of an extensive amount of water on the ground which either drains away from the building or flows back inside the church as happened in 2015. When the church was built in 2001, gutters and downspouts were not installed on the build-ing. The original plan was for the rainwater to drain away from the church. To resolve this problem, a dedicated team, of parishioner volunteers has been working to dig out a drainage channel, which is then fitted with a perforated plastic pipe, then covered over with gravel. This process is intended to carry the rainwater along the side of the church and away into drainage culverts and areas. This project will take more time to complete, since it is all done by hand.

A sample of the new carpet is in the display case in the narthex of the church. The church architect was consulted to recommend the new carpet, which was approved by the Building Committee. Please note that the original carpet color is no longer available. We have the assurance of the architect consultants that the color will blend favorably with the colors of the church building. The new carpet will be paid entirely from a property insurance settlement.

New ChairsThree new chairs have been ordered for the sanctuary. This includes a presider’s chair for the priest and two matching chairs for the deacons. The three chairs currently in use will be refinished and placed in the Chapel.

It is appropriate to call to mind the teaching of the Church in reference to the arrangement of the Sanctuary. The following infor-mation is taken from paragraph 310 of the General Instruction of the Roman Missal. First, with respect to the presider’s chair or the chair for the priest celebrant: “The chair of the Priest-Celebrant must signify his function of presiding over the gathering and of directing the prayer. Thus, the more suitable place for the chair is facing the people at the head of the sanctuary…” Second, in reference to the placement of chairs: “The seat for the Deacon should be placed near that of the celebrant. For the other minister’s seats, should be arranged so that they are clearly distinguishable from the seats for the clergy and so that the ministers are easily able to carry out the function entrusted to them.”

Your pastor,Father David.

Queridos feligreses,Alfombra NuevaLa instalación de la alfombra nueva en nuestra Iglesia Parroquial se llevará a cabo esta semana. Desde el 30 de octubre del 2015 cuando una fuerte lluvia causó inundaciones en la Iglesia y daño la alfombra, se desarrolló un plan para resolver los problemas de drenaje y reemplazar la alfombra.

El agua de lluvia, que fluye hacia abajo del área grande de la azotea de la Iglesia, provoca una acumulación de gran cantidad de agua en el suelo que fluye dentro de la Iglesia o corre por desagües del edificio, como ocurrió en el año 2015. En el año 2001 cuando la Iglesia fue construida, no se instalaron desagües ni bajantes en el edificio. En el plan original se creía que el agua de lluvia fluyera lejos de la Iglesia. Para resolver este problema, un equipo de voluntarios dedicados de nuestra parroquia ha estado trabajando para excavar un canal de drenaje, que se ha equipado con un tubo de plástico perforado, luego se cubre con grava. Este proceso está diseñado para llevar el agua de lluvia a lo largo del lado de la Iglesia y a las áreas y alcantarillas de drenaje. Este proyecto se llevará más tiempo para completar, ya que todo es hecho a mano.

Una muestra de la alfombra nueva se encuentra a la entrada principal de la Iglesia, en una vitrina. Se consultó el arquitecto de la Iglesia para que nos diera una recomendación sobre la alfombra nueva, cual fue aprobada por el Comité de Construcción. Tenga en cuenta que el color original de la alfombra ya no está disponible. Los consejeros de arquitecto nos ase-guran que el color combinara favorablemente con los colores del edificio de la Iglesia. La nueva alfombra se pagará por completo por el acuerdo de seguro de la propiedad.

Sillas NuevasSe han ordenado tres sillas nuevas para el Santuario. Esto incluye la silla del celebrante para el sacerdote y dos sillas para los diáconos. Las tres sillas que se usan actualmente en la Iglesia serán barnizadas y colocadas en la Capilla.

Es apropiado recordar la enseñanza de la Iglesia en cuestión a la dis-posición del Santuario. La siguiente información viene del párrafo 310 de la Instrucción General del Misal Romano. Primero, con respecto a la silla del celebrante o la silla para el sacerdote celebrante: “La silla del Sacerdote-Celebrante debe significar su función de presidir la reunión y de dirigir la oración. Así que, el lugar más conveniente para esta silla es enfrente de la gente a la cabeza del Santuario...” Segundo, en referencia a la colocación de las (otras) sillas: “la silla para el Diácono debe colocarse junto a la del celebrante. Las demás sillas para los ministros, deben de disponerse de modo que sean claramente distinguibles de los asientos para el clero y para que los ministros puedan fácilmente llevar a cabo la función que se les encomienda.”

Su párroco,Padre David.
