HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY

Mother’s Day is the perfect occasion to thank the Lord for the gift of womanhood, and the Grace of Life! The perfect moment to approach those who gave us life, and express our endless gratitude.

The special moment to let them know how much we appreciate all their concerns, and quiet

sacrifices on our behalf. The right time to show a bit of gratitude and love in return for the gift of

their presence in our lives. Indeed, Mother’s Day provides us with the opportunity to get the best

out of ourselves and discover -many times to our very own surprise- that it does not matter how old we may be… a mother will always make us feel

unpretentious and fond like a little child.

Esta fiesta nos brinda la posibilidad de reconocer el Don de la Vida como el más sagrado y precioso de todos los regalos que el Creador pudo habernos otorgado y el saber que ha querido concederlo a través de un ser gentil, cercano, amoroso, que siempre se preocupa por nosotros, siempre esperara en nosotros sin importar cuantas veces fallemos, siempre está dispuesta a perdonarnos… al considerar todo esto, no nos queda más que agradecidos elevar este día una plegaria de acción de gracias por el regalo de nuestras madrecitas

BENVENUTO AL PADRE RIGOBERTO OLIVARES P. Rigoberto è nato a Città del Messico. É il maggiore di quattro fratelli e sorelle. Ha emigrato a California quando era molto giovane. Il suo cammino vocazionale verso il sacerdozio l’ha iniziato quando si è inserito al gruppo di preghiera del venerdì sera nella sua parrocchia. In seguito fondò il gruppo di giovani adulti di lingua spagnola: "Soldados de Cristo", che esiste fino ad oggi. Rigoberto ha conosciuto i Padri Scalabriniani durante un ritiro giovanile e successivamente si è unito al loro programma di formazione. Entrò per la prima volta nella Casa di Discernimento in Sun Valley, California. La sua prima esperienza di missione è stata con i “Day Laborers” in Los Angeles. Ha continuato i suoi studi di Filosofia all'Università UIC,

di Città del Messico. Ha servito per sei mesi presso la Casa del Migrante di Tijuana, in Messico. Completò l'anno di noviziato a Guadalajara in Messico, emettendo i suoi primi voti religiosi il 28 novembre 2013. È stato destinato a studiare la Teologia a San Paolo in Brasile, dove visse per cinque anni. Esercitava il suo apostolato servendo gli immigrati delle Filippine, Siria, Haiti, Africa, Perù e Bolivia.

BUONA FESTA DELLA MAMMA La festa della mamma è l'occasione perfetta per ringraziare il Signore per il dono della donna e la grazia della vita! Il momento perfetto per avvicinarsi a chi ci ha donato la vita ed esprimere la nostra infinita gratitudine. Il momento speciale per far loro sapere quanto apprezziamo tutte le loro preoccupazioni e silenziosi sacrifici per nostro conto. Il momento giusto per mostrare un po 'di gratitudine e amore in cambio del dono della loro presenza nelle nostre vite. In effetti, la festa della mamma ci offre l'opportunità di trarre il meglio da noi stessi e scoprire - molte volte con nostra stessa sorpresa - che non importa quanti anni abbiamo ... una madre ci farà sempre sentire senza pretese e affettuosi come un piccolo bambino.
