4th Sunday of Easter

“Pastor’s Weekend Message”

Today is Good Shepherd Sunday and Jesus is our Good Shepherd. This Sunday we are invited to pray for Vocations to the Priesthood and Religious life. Jesus is our Good Shepherd who calls each one of us to “hear His voice” and follow Him. It takes a lot of trust to follow our leader. We also need the gift of faith and confidence. Let us continue to ask God to bless Holy Family with all kinds of vocations to serve the Church. We pray especially for all those called by name to Priesthood to serve the Church. Also let us continue to pray for our priests and religious during this time. Today, I can say that our Church will have a wonderful week of blessings for Holy Family: Saturday we will celebrate First Communion’s and on Tuesday we will have Confirmations. Today, we also pray for all of our mothers. We constantly pray for them as they pray for us. Thank them for their love, care and life. May we also continue to have our Lord Jesus as our Good Shepherd always leading our Church as His flock. Pray also for vocations to come from Catholic families. Blessings in the Lord Jesus, Fr. Juan, you Pastor

“Mensaje Pastoral del Parroco”

Hoy es el Domingo del Buen Pastor y Jesús es el Buen Pastor. De hecho este domingo nos invitan a orar por las vocaciones al Sacerdocio y a la vida Religiosa. Jesús es nuestro Buen Pastor quien llama a cada uno de nosotros “ha escuchar Su voz” y ha seguirlo. Toma mucha confianza para seguir nuestro líder. También necesitamos el don de la fe. Continuemos pidiendo a Dios por la Sagrada Familia para que sea bendecida con toda clase de vocaciones en el servicio. Oremos especialmente por aquellos que por nombre han sido llamados a servir en la Iglesia. También continuemos orando por todos nuestros sacerdotes y religiosos durante este tiempo. Hoy podemos decir que nuestra Iglesia ha tenido una semana maravillosa de bendiciones para la Sagrada Familia: sábado de primeras comuniones y el martes tendremos confirmaciones con el Señor Obispo Cotta. Oremos también por todas las madres. Agradecemos su amor, cariño, vida y oraciones. Continuemos siguiendo a Jesús nuestro Buen Pastor quien siempre proteja y guié a su rebaño – nuestra Iglesia, familias y vidas. Oremos para ser buenos líderes y pastores especialmente de nuestras familias. Siempre oremos por las vocaciones sacerdotales. Bendiciones en el Señor, Padre Juan Serna, su Párroco

DIOCESAN PRAYER FOR VOCATIONS Abba, Father, you loved the world so much that you sent your Son, Jesus the Christ, to be our Savior. He established your kingdom of justice, love and peace. Through Baptism into your Church you have called us to be faithful disciples of your Son and servants of the Kingdom.

Grant a generous heart to those you are calling to be ordained Priests and Deacons, Consecrated Religious and Lay Ministers.

Raise up priests from our Diocese and in our parishes to shepherd your people.

By the power of your Holy Spirit may we as your Church never lose confidence that you will send forth laborers into the harvest. This is our prayer through Christ Our Lord. AMEN. ORACIÓN DIOCESANA POR LAS VOCACIONES Abba, Padre, tanto has amado al mundo que enviaste a tu propio Hijo, Jesucristo, nuestro Señor y Salvador. El vino a establecer tu Reino de justiciar, de amor y de paz.

Por el bautismo, nos has llamado a ser fieles discípulos de tu Hijo y servidores de tu Reino. Concede un corazón generoso a todos aquellos que estas llamando a ser Sacerdotes, Diáconos, Religiosos y Religiosas, y Laicos comprometidos. Llama a hombres de nuestra Diócesis y parroquias para que sean sacerdotes para pastorear a tu rebaño. Por el poder del Espíritu Santo haz que, como Iglesia, siempre confiemos que mandarás trabajadores a tu cosecha. Te lo pedimos por Jesucristo Nuestro Señor. AMEN. Obispo Emérito Stephen E. Blaire, Diócesis de Stockton
