From the Desk of Padre José…..

On this First Sunday of Advent we are encouraged to leave our daily anxieties to the Lord and simply trust Him. We probably all have heard, “Let go and let God” be. This reminder of our readings today is a gift for us to continue trusting in the Lord in all things. We heard last week from our Finance Council and Parish Council members about the present situation of our finances. I want to thank them for truly being transparent and for safeguarding our financial story. Let us be at peace; God will provide. The gift of advent is an invitation for us to focus on what is important and to simply let go of the anxieties that may take that peace away. Of course, this is easier said than done, but as a parish family and Church community we are invited to trust in God at all times. May we continue to sing with joy, “O come O come Emmanuel.” Be with us Lord and renew our trust in

YOU. Please be assured of my prayers for you, and may the anxieties of daily life be lifted up to God in prayer, and may He dwell with us. Fraternally, Fr. José

P.S. This past Monday, we met with the lectors from our parish where we dialogued and encouraged the following of the rubrics for Proclaiming the Word of God. We will be meeting with all of our Eucharistic Ministers this coming Monday, December 3, at 7:00 PM in the Church. We will continue the dialogue with them about being Extraordinary Ministers of Communion. Please continue to pray for all our ministers as we learn from each other and encourage each other to grow in Faith and understanding. This weekend we are also presenting to you the Safeguard the Children committee members at all Masses. Let us pray for all of those who are actively ministering in our Church at different ministries. We are truly blessed. I thank you. Let us all continue to pray for all our ministries.

Del Escritorio del Padre José….. En este Primer domingo de Adviento, se nos anima a dejar nuestras preocupaciones diarias al Señor y simplemente confiar en Él. Probablemente todos hemos escuchado, "Suelta y deja que Dios" sea. Este recordatorio de nuestras lecturas de hoy es un regalo para que sigamos confiando en el Señor en todas las cosas. La semana pasada escuchamos de nuestro Consejo de Finanzas y de los miembros del Consejo Parroquial sobre la situación actual de nuestras finanzas. Quiero agradecerles por ser verdaderamente transparentes y por salvaguardar nuestra historia financiera. Estemos en paz; Dios proveerá. El regalo del advenimiento es una invitación para que nos enfoquemos en lo que es importante y simplemente dejemos de lado las ansiedades que pueden quitar esa paz. Por supuesto, es más fácil decirlo que hacerlo, pero como familia parroquial y comunidad de la Iglesia, estamos invitados a confiar en Dios en todo momento. Que sigamos cantando con alegría: "Oh, ven, ven, Emmanuel". Sé con nosotros, Señor, y renueva nuestra confianza en ti. Tenga la seguridad de mis oraciones por usted, y que las inquietudes de la vida diaria se eleven a Dios en oración, y que Él viva con nosotros. Fraternalmente, Padre José

PD El lunes pasado, nos reunimos con los lectores de nuestra parroquia donde dialogamos y alentamos el seguimiento de las rúbricas para Proclamar la Palabra de Dios. Nos reuniremos con todos nuestros Ministros de la Eucaristía el próximo lunes 3 de diciembre a las 7:00 PM en la Iglesia. Continuaremos el diálogo con ellos sobre ser Ministros Extraordinarios de Comunión. Por favor, continúen orando por todos nuestros ministros mientras aprendemos unos de otros y animándonos a crecer en Fe y comprensión. Este fin de semana también les presentamos a los miembros del comité de Safeguard the Children en todas las Misas. Oremos por todos aquellos que están ministrando activamente en nuestra Iglesia en diferentes ministerios. Estamos verdaderamente bendecidos. Te lo agradezco. Sigamos todos orando por todos nuestros ministerios.

REPORTING ABUSE/MISCONDUCT It is important to communicate your concerns if you observe anyone interacting with a child

in an inappropriate manner. Parents, family members, teachers, clergy and all who work with or are responsible for the care of children need to remember that speaking up is one of the most important

things they can do to protect not just their own children, but all children. Voicing your concerns is critical to protecting God’s children. Any incident of abuse or misconduct should be immediately

reported. For a copy of the complete VIRTUS® article, “Are We Communicating our Concerns?,” please visit http://www.la-archdiocese.org/org/protecting/Pages/VIRTUS-Current-Online-Articles.aspx.

DENUNCIA DE ABUSO/MALA CONDUCTO Si usted observa a alguien interactuando con un niño o una niña en una forma inapropiada, es importante que

comunique sus preocupaciones. Los padres de familia, miembros de la familia, profesores, sacerdotes y todos aquellos que trabajan con niños o son responsables del cuidado de niños, necesitan recordar que elevar la voz puede ayudar a proteger

no sólo a sus propios hijos, sino a todos los niños. Hablar sobre sus preocupaciones es muy importante para proteger a los hijos de Dios. Cualquier incidente de abuso o conducta inapropiada debe ser reportado inmediatamente. Para una copia del artículo completo de VIRTUS®, “Are We Communicating our Concerns?” (¿Estamos comunicando nuestras preocupaciones?), visita http://www.la-archdiocese.org/org/protecting/Pages/VIRTUS-Current-Online-Articles.aspx.
