St. Helen

As disciples of Jesus in the universal Church we are called to become in Jesus’ own words “a house of prayer for all peoples.” Thus we welcome all, the stranger, the lost, those who have never known Jesus and those who have fallen away for whatever reason. We seek to spread the full gospel: “Woe to us if we don’t spread the gospel.” Our practical goal is to utilize and dispense the seven sacraments as instruments of God’s sanctification and healing, under the guidance of the Arch-bishop of Santa Fe. We set our sights on mature Christian witness for the building up of God’s spiritual house, the new people of God that He has chosen to be his own, and chosen to announce His praises. Our prayer is to become committed disciples of our Lord Jesus and become “a house of prayer for all peoples.”

St. Maria Faustina Kowalska

She was born on August 25, 1905 in Poland. Her parents were Stanislaus and Marianna Kowalska. Her father was a carpenter and theirs was a poor family. Her original name was Helena Kowalska. She joined the Congregation of the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy, Warsaw at the age of 20 years and a new name Maria Faustina was given to her at time when she received the religious habit. Her name Faustina means fortunate or blessed one and it is a feminine form of the name a Christian martyr Faustinus. She saw visions of Jesus but others ignored her when she told them about the visions. She requested an artist to paint the first Divine Mercy image based on the vision of Jesus she saw. Her Divine Mercy devotion was banned by the Vatican in the year 1958 but the ban was lifted in the year 1978 at the request of Cardinal Carol Wojtyla (later Pope John Paul-II) the then Arch Bishop of Krakow. One lady called Maureen Digan of Massachusetts reported a healing from Lymph edema, after praying at the tomb of Maria Faustina in March 1981, which was approved by Vatican in 1982. She died on October 5, 1938 of tuberculosis. She was beatified on April 18, 1993 and canonized on April 30, 2000 by Pope John Paul-II. She is called as the apostle of Divine Mercy devotion.

Feast Day: October 5

Santa María Faustina Kowalska

Nació el 25 de agosto de 1905 en Polonia. Sus padres eran Estanislao y Mariana Kowalski. Su papá fue albañil y su familia era pobre. Su nombre de pila fue Elena. Se unió a la Congregación de las Hermanas de Nuestra Señora de Misericordia en Varsovia y le dieron el nombre de María Faustina cuando tomó el hábito. Su nombre significa afortunada o bendecida y es la versión femenina del nombre del mártir San Faustino. Veía visiones de Jesucristo pero los demás la ignoraban cuando hablaban de estas visiones. Le pidió a un artista que pintara la visión del Jesucristo Misericordioso que había visto. La devoción a la Divina Misericordia fue prohibida por el Vaticano en 1958 pero esa prohibición de suspendió en 1978 a petición del Cardenal Karol Wotyla (luego el Papa Juan Pablo II), quien entonces era arzobispo de Cracovia. Una señora de Massachusetts, Maureen Digan, fue curada de un cancer linfático en marzo de 1981, milagro que fue aprobado por el Vaticano un año después. María Faustina murió el 5 de octubre de 1938 de tuberculosis. Fue beatificada el 18 de abril de 1993 y canonizada el 30 de abril de 2000, ambos actos presididos por el Papa Juan Pablo II. Se le conoce como la apóstol de la Divina Misericordia.

Our Lady of the Rosary This feast is celebrated on every October-7 from the year 1571. There was a war between Turkish army and Christian army in October 1571at a place called Lepanto. The Christian

army fought under the leadership of Dan Juan, an Austrian Military General. The situation then was that if the Turkish army won, there was every possibility that the entire Europe would come under Muslim control. Therefore Pope Pius-V requested all catholic Christians to recite rosary and pray to Mother Mary for the victory of the Christian army. People also recited rosary and prayed Mother Mary for the victory of the Christian army. In that war Christian army won on October 7, 1571. The news of the victory was conveyed to the Pope on October 7, 1571itself, when the Pope was talking with cardinals. He immediately directed the church to celebrate the feast of Our Lady of the Rosary every year on October 7. All our prayers by reciting rosary will be heard and fulfilled. Family that recites rosary together will always remain united together.

10,000 Rosaries Join us in praying 10,000 Rosaries. During the month

of October we will be coming together in praying

10,000 rosaries for healing and an end to this

pandemic or any other special intention.

We invite you to join the pledge, individually, as a

family or as a parish ministry group. A form will be in

back of the church next to the cleaning supplies for

signatures.

Nuestra Señora del Rosario Esta fiesta se ha celebrado cada 7 de octubre desde el año 1571. En octubre de 1571, hubo una guerra entre el ejército turco y un ejército

cristiano en Lepanto. El ejército estuvo bajo la dirección de Dan Juan, un general austriaco. Si ejército turco hubiera ganado, es probable que toda Europa estaría bajo control musluman. Por eso, el Papa Pío V pidió a todo el mundo que rezaran El Rosario para que los cristianos ganaran. El ejército cristiano gano la guerra el 7 de octubre de 1571. La noticia se le comunicó al Papa el mismo día mientras hablaba con los cardenales. De inmediato dirigió que toda la iglesia rezara El Rosario todos los años el 7 de octubre. Nuestra Señora escuchará todas las peticiones que le hacemos rezando El Rosario. Las familias que rezan El Rosario juntas siempre están unidas.

. 10,000 Rosarios Únete a nosotros rezando 10,000 rosarios. Durante el

mes de octubre estaremos rezando 10,000 rosarios

juntos por la sanacion y por el final de esta pandemic

y cualquier otra intención especial.

Te invitamos a unirte al compromiso, individualmente,

como familia, o como ministerio parroquial. Una hoja

estará en la parte atrás de la iglesia al lado de los

productos de limpieza.
