BOLETIN HISPANO
Gracias a todas las personas que han donado artículos para bebés y
dinero en efectivo para la Oficina de Respeto a la Vida. Dios
bendiga su generosidad.
Ya el mes de noviembre está por llegar y con él ,el dia de Acción
de Gracias. Como todos los años el árbol con las tarjetas para ayudar a familias necesitadas está a la entrada de la Iglesia. El programa
de "Adopte a una familia" necesita su ayuda. Puede también traer
alimentos enlatados para ayudar a estas familias que necesitan.
Gracias nuevamente por su generosidad.
"Amado Jesús ayúdame a difundir tu fragancia por dondequiera que vaya. Inunda mi alma con Tu Espíritu y Tu
vida. Penetra y posee todo mi ser hasta que mi vida sólo
sea un reflejo de la tuya. Brilla a través de mí, de tal
modo que todas las almas con las que me encuentre sientan tu
presencia en mi alma. Que me miren y no ya no vean a mí, sino
solamente a Jesús. Roguemos a la Nuestra Señora de un modo muy
especial: María, madre de Jesús, sé la madre de todos nosotros, para
que como Tú, podamos ser puros de corazón y.como Tú, amemos a
Jesús; para que también como Tú, sírvamos a los más pobres,porque
pobres lo somos todos. Que ante todo, amemos a nuestros
prójimo, y así satisfagamos el deseo de Dios y devengamos en portadores de Su amor y compasión" Madre Teresa de Calcuta.
COME TO THE FEAST
“On this mountain, the Lord of hosts / will
provide for all peoples / a feast of rich food and
choice wines” (Isaiah 25:6). That’s what Isaiah tells
us today. God is putting together a huge party for “all peoples,”to “wipe away / the tears from every face” (Isaiah 25:8).
And what does Jesus tell us? The reign of God, he
says, “may be likened to a king who gave a wedding feast for
his son” (Matthew 22:2). When the guests didn’t come, the
king had his servants go out “into the main roads and invite to
the feast whomever you find” (Matthew 22:9). We are called to
deliver that invitation.
One of the themes woven into today’s liturgy is that of
divine generosity. Asleep to reality, people often think they
have “earned” what they have. In our better moments, though,
we know that all our gifts-even the spiritual gifts-come through
God’s generosity. Our vocation is to invite people, to remind
them the tickets aren’t for sale. We can only show up and say
thank you.

Next weekend’s Special Collection
WORLD MISSION SUNDAY
Next weekend our parish will celebrate
World Mission Sunday. This year we are
invited to reach out and help build the
Church in Mongolia, the world’s youngest
Catholic Church, as well as local churches
throughout the Missions, in the remote areas
across our world. Through the work of these
churches, and their witness to Christ, the
poor receive practical help and experience God’s love and
mercy, His hope and peace. Please keep the Missions in your
daily prayers. Please come prepared next weekend to give as
generously as your means allow in the collection for the Society of the Propagation of the Faith. For more information,
please visit www.IAmAMissionary.org.

STEWARDSHIP: “Sharing God’s Gifts”
As Catholics, we give in gratitude for what God has
given to us; this is what motivates us. We give because of
faithfulness. The offertory collection for Sunday, September

envelope packets are mailed every 2 months.
In using your offertory envelopes each week, please
make sure your envelope number is listed on it. Also, please
make sure we have your correct address to avoid unnecessary additional fees for returned mail from the post office. If
you do not know your envelope number, please call the Parish Office and we will gladly give it to you. If you are currently
receiving offertory envelopes in the mail and are not using
