Un Mensaje De Nuestro Pastor,
A MESSAGE FROM OUR PASTOR,
FATHER STEVE
PADRE STEVE
(Rev. Monsignor Stephen N. Downes, Pastor)
Today is Good Shepherd Sunday and the World Day of
Prayer for Vocations. In the Gospel we hear Jesus speak
of his caring for each person. He knows them, they follow him and he gives them eternal life. At the end of the Second
Reading from the Book of Revelation we hear how God will lead his
people to everywhere. Today we pray that each and every one will
hear the voice of Jesus the Good Shepherd and follow in the path he
leads us. We especially need gerous men to step forward and serve
as priests in our Archdiocese. May God help us to know and live
out our vocation as priest, brother, sister, deacon, lay man or lay
woman so we can be filled with joy and the Holy Spirit in bringing
God’s love and goodness to others.

Jesus will be placed in our Church this week. The statues are
visual reminders and help in our prayer to Mary during May, the
month of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and of God’s love for us in
the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
In preparation for the building of the new Parish Hall, meeting
rooms and Parish Offices, the demolition of the Old Church has

placed in storage-many will be on display in the New Hall.
More information will be found in today’s bulletin.
All are invited to join in filling the Rose Bowl in Pasadena on

John 13:31-33, 34-35
(Rev, Monsignor Stephen N. Downes, Pastor)
Hoy es el Domingo del Buen Pastor y el Día Mundial
de Oración por las Vocaciones. En el Evangelio es
cuchamos a Jesús hablar de su cuidado por cada persona. É los conoce, ellos le siguen y Él les da vida eterna. AL
final de la Segunda Lectura, tomada del libro del Apocalipsis,
escuchamos cómo Dios conduce a su Pueblo a las “fuentes del
agua de la vida… y enjugará de sus ojos toda lágrima…” Dios
llama a los hombres y mujeres, gente como Pablo y Bernabé,
ustedes y yo, para llevar su amor y su esperanza a la gente en
todas partes. Hoy oramos para que todos y cada uno escuchemos la voz de Jesús el Buen Pastor y lo sigamos por el
camino que Él nos muestra. Necesitamos especialmente hombres que den un paso al frente y decidan servir como Sacerdotes en nuestra Arquidiócesis. Que Dios nos ayude a descubrir
y vivir nuestra vocación como Sacerdotes, Hermanos Religosos, Hermanas Religiosas, Diáconos, Laicos comprometidos.
De esta manera seremos colmados de gozo y del Espíritu Santo,
y llevaremos el amor y la bondad de Dios a los demás.

NOTES ON A NEW PARISH HALL
NOTAS SOBRE EL NUEVO SALON PARROQUIAL
The Archdiocese of Los Angeles has signed the construction contract for the new Parish Hall, meeting rooms
and parish offices. Work has already begun in preparation for the demolition of the old Church. Next week we
hope to have the calendar of construction activities and
the date of completion of the new buildings (possibly in
February or March, 2008). The Archdiocese expects our
parish to repay the loans for all the construction – of $13
million. Your faithful and generous fulfillment of your
pledge to the Capital Campaigns of 2003 and 2005 is all
important. This is your parish. The parish must pay its
bills and meet its debts. Your generous giving helps our
parish grow and serve the Lord and all people. (Some
doors, ceiling fans, light fixtures, etc., from the Old
Church are now available for sale to anyone interested.
Please call Rocky at the Parish Office at 947-3306 as
soon as possible.)
La Arquidiócesis de Los Angeles ha firmado el contrato de construcción del nuevo Salón Parroquial, salones para conferencias
y oficinas parroquiales. El trabajo de preparación para la demolición de la Iglesia antigüa ha comenzado. Esperamos tener
un calendario de actividades de la terminación de nuestros
nuevos edificios la próxima semana, (que suponemos que sea
posible para febrero o marzo del 2008). La Arquidiócesis espera
que nuestra Parroquia haga los pagos de los préstamos para toda
la construcción – de $ 13 millones. El fiel y generoso cumplimiento de su promesa hecha a la Campaña Capital de 20032005 es sumamente importante. Esta es su Parroquia. La Parroquia tiene qué pagar los recibos y las deudas. Su generoso regalo
ayuda a nuestra Parroquia a crecer y servir al Señor y a su
pueblo. Algunas puertas, ventiladores de techo, lámparas de la
Iglesia antigüa están a la venta, por si alguien está interesado en
comprarlos, por favor llamen a Roquel Aranda a la oficina parroquial al 947-3306, lo más pronto posible.

IS THE LORD CALLING YOU?
Could the Lord be calling you to the Priesthood? The need for
priests in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles is great. Our Archdiocese has 287 parishes and 350 active Archdiocesan priests
(a third between the ages of 65-75). We ask for prayers that
God may call more men to serve our Archdiocese in the ministerial priesthood. We pray for men who are generous in their
service, willing to offer their lives and all their gifts for God’s
greater glory and for the good of God’s people. Anyone interested? Please call a priest of the parish at 947-3306.
To the Sacred Heart of Jesus
Compassionate heart of Jesus, graciously listen to our
prayers. We ask of you a great grace for the Church and
the Salvation of Souls: send us holy priests! Looking at the
tired and weary crowd, that were like sheep without a shepherd, you said; “The harvest is abundant but the laborers to
his harvest.” You are the harvest master, you are the mystical gardener who sanctifies the vineyard with your blood.
You have formed the Church like a blooming field wherein
you gather the flowers of holy virtues and the fruits of
good works. Gentle Jesus, you hunger and thirst for souls
but your heart is saddened by the lack of good laborers.
People remain in the darkness of sin, many are lost; children and the youngsters cry for need of Laborers who will
save them and lead them to you. For this we pray: Send, O
lord, holy priests to the Church and to the whole world.
Amen.

LEARNING MOMENT
Our Parish children are preparing to receive the Holy Eucharist for the First Time; this is a learning time for them and for all of us.
Here are value practices that we need to remember as our children are watching us do what they are expected to do during Sunday
Mass.
GENERAL INSTRUCTION OF THE ROMAN MISSAL (GIRM)
The general instruction of the Roman Missal (GIRM) is an official document from the Vatican that contains the Theology of Basic Liturgy. The GIRM gives
precise instructions in how Mass is celebrated.
This is information that YOU as God’s people must do during Mass
Silence: Must be observed before Mass starts, after each Bible reading, after the Homily and during Communion until everyone has received it.
Common Posture: Must be observed as a sign of unity by all the members of the Christian Community united by the Sacred Liturgy (this means:standing,
kneeling, proper seating. # 42)
Kneeling: Must be observed after “Holy, Holy, Holy” song and the great “Amen”, of the Eucharist Prayer. Exceptions may apply in special circumstances such
as example: 1. where there are no kneelers available such as in our three Parroquial Mission facilities; the Pastor by council petition will then decide the posture appropriate at the Eucharist Prayer. Those who do not kneel must observe a profound bow when the priest genuflects after consecration. 2 . Physical
impediment ( health issues or age)
Standing: The assembly needs to stand to receive Holy Communion and to remain standing during Communion until all have received it; after communion
everyone may sit or kneel down to give thanks in silence.
Profound Bow: Needs to be observed during the Creed, or Profession of Faith where we pronounce: “by the power of the Holy Spirit….and became man."
The Head Bow: Parishioners need to bow down their heads as a sign of reverence, before receiving the Body of Christ and again before receiving the Blood of
Christ. If you cannot receive Communion come with your hands crossed on your chest to receive a blessing. This will show the Priest or Minister that you cannot receive Communion.
INSTRUCCIONES GENERALES DEL MISAL ROMANO (GIRM)
Este es un Documento official del Vaticano que contiene la Teología básica de la Litúrgia. El GIRM nos da instrucciones precisas de como
celebrar la Misa. Esto es lo que TU como pueblo de Dios debes hacer durante la Misa.
Silencio: Debe observarse antes de que empiece la Misa, después de cada lectura de la Biblia y de la Homilia y durante la Comunión.
Postura Común: Esta debe observarse como un signo de unidad de toda la Comunidad que se unen por medio de
la Litúrgia. (Postura común significa Ponerse de pie, arrodillarse, sentarse corectamente, etc.
Arrodillarse: Después del canto “Santo, Santo, Santo” y hasta en gran “Amen” de la Oración Eucarística. Excepciones puedan dares bajo circunstancias especiales como: 1. Donde no hay reclinatorios como en nuestras tres
Misiones; Donde el Pastor por petición del Concilio decide la postura apropiada durante la Litúrgia Eucarística. Los
que no se arrodillan deben hacer una profunda inclinación de la cabeza cuando el Sacerdote hace la genuflección
después de la Consagración. 2 . Impedimentos Físicos de salud o edad.
De Pie: La asamblea debe permanecer de pie para recibir Comunión y permanecer de pie durante todo el tiempo de
Comunión. Después que todos han recibido deben sentarse para dar gracias en silencio.
Profunda Inclinación de la Cabeza: Debe observarse durant el Credo o Profesión de Fé cuando pronunciamos las
palabras: “Por el poder del Espíritu Santo….y se hizo hombre."
Inclinación de la Cabeza: Los fieles deben inclinar la cabeza como signo de reverencia antes de recibir el Cuerpo
de Cristo y una vez más al recibir la Sangre de Cristo. Si no puede recibir Comunión, puede recibir una bendición al
cruzar sus brazos frente a su pecho le indicará al Sacerdote o Ministro que usted no puede recibir Comunión.
