Feast of the Holy Family of Jesus, Mary and Joseph December 30, 2018

From the Pastor

Dcn. Abel CortesDcn. Larry LucidoDcn. Bob Marrinan

Dcn. Brian MitchellDcn. Peter Raad

My Dear Parishioners,

The Feast of the Holy Family reminds us of the importance of family as the basic element of society as well as the “specific revelation and realization of ecclesial communion.” (Catechism 2204). The Holy Family is a model for our parish families in showing love, humble service, and devotion through corporal and spiritual works of mercy. They also remind us to pray! Let us ask Jesus, Mary and Joseph to assist our families throughout this year.

January 1, 2019 is the Solemnity of Mary, the Holy Mother of God. This is one of the oldest celebrations honoring Mary the Mother of God. She is also the Mother of the Church as we are all sisters and brothers in the Body of Christ. Therefore, she is also our Mother who prays for us continually. This is also the octave or eighth day after the birth of Our Lord. As was the Jewish custom, Mary’s baby received the rite of circumcision and was publicly named “Jesus,” a Hebrew name that means “God saves!” Therefore, we should give due honor and respect to the Holy Name of Jesus, celebrated on January 3rd.

January 1st is also designated as a Day of Prayer for World Justice and Peace. As we begin this new calendar year, let us begin once again with Jesus Christ who is eternal. He is our Peace. Let us pray for the Prince of Peace to reign in our hearts, in our lives, and in our world.

On behalf of our priests, deacons, and staff, may God bless you and your family as you enter into 2019.

In Christ,Fr. Guadagnoli

Fiesta de la Sagrada Familia 30 de diciembre 2018

Del PastorQueridos Feligreses,

La Fiesta de la Sagrada Familia nos recuerda la importancia de la familia como el elemento básico de la sociedad, así como la “revelación específica y la realización de la comunión eclesial” (Catecismo 2204). La Sagrada Familia es un modelo para que nuestras familias parroquiales muestren amor, servicio humilde y devoción a través de obras de misericordia corporales y espirituales. ¡También nos recuerdan que debemos orar! Pidámosle a Jesús, a María y a José que ayuden a nuestras familias durante este ano.

El 1 de enero de 2019 es la solemnidad de María, la Santa Madre de Dios. Esta es una de las celebraciones más antiguas en honor a María, la Madre de Dios. Ella también es la Madre de la Iglesia donde todos somos hermanas y hermanos en el Cuerpo de Cristo. Por eso ella también es nuestra Madre que ora por nosotros continuamente. Esta es también la Octava de Navidad u octavo día después del nacimiento de Nuestro Señor. Como era la costumbre judía el bebé de María recibió el rito de la circuncisión y fue llamado “Jesús”, un nombre hebreo que significa “Dios Salva”. Por lo tanto, debemos dar el debido honor y respeto al Santo Nombre de Jesús, celebrado el día 3 de enero.

El 1 de enero también es el Día de Oración por la Justicia y la Paz Mundiales. Al comenzar este nuevo año calendario comencemos una vez más con Jesucristo que es eterno. Él es nuestra paz. Oremos para que el Príncipe de la Paz reine en nuestros corazones, en nuestras vidas y en nuestro mundo.

En nombre de nuestros sacerdotes, diáconos y personal, que Dios los bendiga a usted y a su familia al entrar al 2019.

En la paz de Cristo,P. Guadagnoli
