Volume XVIII No. 1994 Twentieth Sunday of Ordinary Time August 18, 2019

A Letter from Father Wencil My Dear Sisters and Brothers,

The term “church” has been used since Grecian times referring to an assembly of “privileged” people. In the Bible, Matthew references this word as the community that Jesus will gather and that, like a building, will have Peter as its solid foundation; and that community of followers of Jesus is indeed a privileged people!

On August 29, 2009, Daniel Cardinal Di Nardo dedicated our new church at St. Paul the Apostle Catholic Church. Here we come individually and as the spiritual family that we are, to hear the Word of God, pray, celebrate sacraments, participate in celebrations of Eucharist and have our own quiet reflections with our holy Father. Here in this holy structure we have memories of sharing joys, through sacred celebrations -- Masses, Baptisms, First Communions, Confirmations, Weddings, sendings to receive Holy Orders, as well as tears, strengthening and comfort experienced thru Confessions, Anointing of the Sick and Funeral Rites.

Truly we are blessed as our parish Declares the Glory of God in this holy place. As we journey with Christ it is here that we join to receive God’s Grace and learn to extend this same Grace in our families, to each other and to others in our communities. I hope you will join me in celebrating this Anniversary of our spiritual Home and celebrating each other, my dear brothers and sisters in Christ.

Carta del Padre Wencil

Mis queridas hermanas y hermanos,

El término "iglesia" se ha usado desde la época griega en referencia a una asamblea de personas "privilegiadas". En la Biblia, Mateo hace referencia a esta palabra como la comunidad que Jesús reunirá y que, como un edificio, tendrá a Pedro como su base sólida; ¡y esa comunidad de seguidores de Jesús es de hecho un pueblo privilegiado!

El 29 de agosto de 2009, el cardenal Daniel Di Nardo dedicó nuestra nueva iglesia en la comunidad católica de San Pablo el Apóstol. Aquí venimos individualmente y como la familia espiritual que somos, para escuchar la Palabra de Dios, orar, celebrar sacramentos, participar en celebraciones de la Eucaristía y tener nuestras propias reflexiones tranquilas con nuestro Santo Padre. Aquí, en esta estructura sagrada, tenemos recuerdos de compartir alegrías, a través de celebraciones sagradas: Misas, Bautismos, Primeras Comuniones, Confirmaciones, Bodas, envíos para recibir Ordenes Sagradas, así como lágrimas, fortalecimiento y consuelo experimentado a través de Confesiones, Unción de los Enfermos. y Ritos Funerarios.

Verdaderamente somos bendecidos cuando nuestra parroquia declara la gloria de Dios en este lugar sagrado. Mientras viajamos con Cristo, es aquí donde nos unimos para recibir la Gracia de Dios y aprender a extender esta misma Gracia en nuestras familias, entre nosotros y con los demás en nuestras comunidades. Espero que se unan a mí para celebrar este Aniversario de nuestro Hogar espiritual y celebrarnos unos a otros, mis queridos hermanos y hermanas en JesuCristo.

Adult Ministry and Faith Formation: Because our faith is too rich and too beautiful to have ever learned it all…

Adult faith formation at St Paul the Apostle Catholic Church is centered around the understanding that living “The Way” taught by Jesus Christ is a life-long, evolving journey, involving both effort and

decision. To enable adults to explore the faith and deepen their knowledge of God’s Word, we provide many opportunities to come together in a learning environment. As a diverse community with a small parish feel, we know it is important to walk that journey with others and to share what we have learned along the way.
