Perpetual Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament /Adoracion Perpetua del Santisimo Sacramento
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Some of you may have noticed some of the recent changes that we have made to our Perpetual
Adoration Chapel. We have been blessed with the generous donation of four new candle stands that
now adorn the Blessed Sacrament. They bring such a great sense of beauty and majesty to our chapel glorifying
our Lord Jesus Christ. They illuminate the presence of His Most Precious Body as He rests on his throne
before us.
You may have also noticed that I have had many items removed from the Adoration Chapel. My intention is to create
and maintain a prayerful space that allows us to keep our focus on Christ in the Blessed Sacrament. Jesus is calling us to
be with Him, to spend time together in prayer. Jesus wants to hear all of our prayers. He desires to comfort us in our
affliction. Jesus simply asks us to bring ourselves before Him, to come with humble and open hearts. We need to make
ourselves present to Him free from any distraction.
Please do not place any images, pictures, letters, written prayer intentions or flowers in the Adoration Chapel moving
forward. Any items left in the Adoration Chapel will be collected and held in the front office for you to pick up.
Instead I invite you to bring your prayer intentions before the Blessed Sacrament by sponsoring a prayer candle. It will
be placed on one of the candle stands. The candle will stay lit for approximately 6 to 8 days. What a great comfort
knowing that your intention will be kept so close to the Lord in the Most Holy Sacrament of the Altar. You may
purchase a candle in the front office for $5.00 and you will be given an approximate date that your prayer intention
candle will be lit. Please visit our front office for more information.
Our Perpetual Adoration Chapel is one of the most sacred spaces here at St. Anne. It provides for us the opportunity to
intimately encounter Christ in the Blessed Sacrament. Come, let us adore Him!
In Christ,
Fr. Sergio Muñoz Fita
Queridos hermanos y hermanas:
Algunos de ustedes han notado algunos de los cambios recientes que hemos hecho a nuestra Capilla de Adoración
Perpetua. Hemos sido bendecidos con la generosa donación de cuatro nuevos soportes de velas que ahora adornan el
Santísimo Sacramento. Traen un gran sentido de belleza y majestad a nuestra capilla glorificando a nuestro
Señor Jesucristo. Iluminan la presencia de su precioso cuerpo mientras Él descansa en su trono ante nosotros.
También puede que han notado que he tenido muchos elementos retirados de la Capilla de la Adoración. Mi intención es
crear y mantener un espacio de oración que nos permite mantener nuestro enfoque en Cristo en el Santísimo Sacramento.
Jesús nos llama a estar con Él, para pasar tiempo juntos en oración. Jesús quiere escuchar todas nuestras oraciones. Él
desea consolarnos en nuestra aflicción. Jesús simplemente nos pide estar ante Él, y venir con un corazon humilde y
abierto. Tenemos que hacernos presentes a Él libre de cualquier distracción.
Por favor, no ponga nada con imágenes, fotografías, cartas, intenciones o flores en el Santisimo. De aqui en adelante,
cualquier artículo que se deje en la Capilla de Adoración se recogerá y lo encontraran en la oficina para que usted pueda
recogerlo.
En lugar de ello, los invito a traer sus intenciones de oración ante el Santísimo Sacramento patrocinando una vela de
oración. Será colocado en una de las gradas de la vela. La vela estará encendida durante aproximadamente 6 a 8 días. ¡Qué
gran consuelo saber que su intención se mantendrá tan cerca del Señor en el Santísimo Sacramento del Altar. Usted puede
comprar una vela en la oficina por $5.00 y se le dará una fecha aproximada en que se encenderá su vela de intención. Por
favor, visite nuestra oficina para más información.
Nuestra Capilla de Adoración Perpetua es uno de los espacios más sagrados aquí en Santa Ana. Proporciona para
nosotros la oportunidad de encontrarnos íntimamente a Cristo en el Santísimo Sacramento. Venid, adoremos!
En Cristo,
Padre Sergio Muñoz Fita

What does it mean to have a Mass
offered for someone?
A Mass may be offered for many reasons: in
thanksgiving, for the intentions of another person
(a birthday, anniversary or health), or, as is most
common, for the repose of the soul.

Parish Life/ Vida parroquial
ECHOING MARY’S DECISION
The angel Gabriel today confronts Mary with a mystery. The
mystery of salvation in Christ is not a mystery that is solved, but a
reality beyond our comprehension that we must choose to enter into.
In the liturgy of the Eastern Church, everyone waits to see if Mary
will enter into the mystery: God waits, Adam and Eve and all the
souls of the dead who long for paradise wait, angels wait for new
heavenly companions. And there is much rejoicing when her decision
is “yes.”
We have less dramatic choices offered to us, but the mystery of
our salvation in Christ is by no means “solved.” We may understand
it a bit better due to Mary’s “yes.” We may be a bit closer to it
through the passion, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. But it still remains a mystery to which we all must
give our own “yes.” Soon we will be
singing “O come, let us adore him.”
May our Advent prayer, our echo of
Mary’s “yes,” continue then, so we may
enter into the mystery of our salvation
in Jesus Christ, God among us.
IMITAR LA DECISIÓN DE MARÍA
El ángel Gabriel hoy le presenta a María un misterio. El misterio
de salvación en Cristo no es un misterio que se pueda resolver, sino
una realidad más allá de nuestro entendimiento en la cual nos decidimos a participar. En la liturgia de la Iglesia Oriental, todos esperan
para ver si María participará en el misterio: Dios espera, Adán y Eva y
todas las almas de los muertos que anhelan el Paraíso esperan, los
ángeles esperan tener nuevos compañeros celestiales. Y hay gran regocijo cuando su decisión es un “sí”.
A nosotros se nos ofrecen opciones menos dramáticas, pero el
misterio de nuestra salvación en Cristo de ningún modo queda
“solucionado”. Puede que ahora lo entendamos un poco mejor
gracias al “sí” de María. Puede que estemos un poco más cercanos a
él mediante la pasión, muerte y resurrección de Jesucristo. Pero un
misterio al cual todos debemos dar nuestro propio “sí”. Ya pronto
estaremos cantando “Venid y adoremos”. Que nuestra oración de
Adviento, a imitación del “sí” de María, continúe para que podamos
participar en el misterio de nuestra salvación en Jesucristo,
