world. YCL will begin on the First Sunday of Advent,
November 30, 2014. It will close on the World Day of
Consecrated Life, February 2, 2016- Please keep those
who have dedicated their lives to Christ in your prayers
O God, throughout the ages you have called women and
men to pursue lives of perfect charity through the evangelical
counsels of poverty, chastity, and obedience. During this Year
of Consecrated Life, we give you thanks for these courageous witnesses of Faith and models of inspiration. Their pursuit of holy lives teaches us to make a more perfect offering
of ourselves to you. Continue to enrich your Church by calling
forth sons and daughters who, having found the pearl of great
price, treasure the Kingdom of Heaven above all things.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and
reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God,
for ever and ever. Amen.

The Ascension of the Lord
The Solemnity of
the Ascension of
the Lord
In the Archdiocese of Los Angeles
the Solemnity is celebrated on the
Sunday following Ascension Thursday
We are joined with the Apostles when we give witness to
the Gospel of Jesus Christ. As the risen Lord is about to
ascend to His Father, He gives His disciples the mission
of preaching the Gospel to the whole world. He also
promises them the gift of the Holy Spirit to help them
carry out the mission. By virtue of our Baptism, we are
given a share in this mission to give witness to the
Gospel by all we say and do in our daily lives.

SAFEGUARD THE CHILDREN DID YOU KNOW?
PROTEGIENDO A LOS NIÑOS ~
¿SABÍA USTED?
Adults are responsible for reporting abuse
Los adultos son responsables de reportar
el abuso
When any adult has reason to suspect
that a child is being or has been abused,
he or she has a moral (and often legal)
responsibility to report suspicions to civil
authorities. Reporting suspected abuse
takes courage. Adults who take a stand
for children and make the call are often
responsible for saving a child from terrible torment.
Learn more about how to identify and report suspected
abuse by reading chapter 9.8.1 of the Administrative
Handbook for the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. Go to:
http://handbook.la-archdiocese.org/chapter-9/section-98/topic-9-8-1.
Cuando cualquier adulto en nuestra comunidad
sospecha de que un menor esté siendo o haya sido abusado, tiene la obligación moral (y muchas veces también
legal) de reportar su sospecha a las autoridades civiles.
Reportar una sospecha de abuso exige valentía. Sin
embargo, cuando un adulto toma esta decisión y hace el
reporte, con frecuencia salva a un menor de un tormento
terrible. Para saber más cómo identificar y reportar
sospechas de abuso, lea el capítulo 9.8.1 del manual
administrativo de la Arquidiócesis de Los Ángeles. El
manual lo puede encontrar aquí: http://handbook.la-archdiocese.org/chapter-9/section-9-8/[email protected] o visite www.virtus.org.
