OUR FATHER IN FAITH The Letter to the Hebrews today sings a hymn of praise to Abraham and to his faith, upon which are founded the religions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Abraham is called “father” in faith by more people on earth than anybody else, numerous as the sands of the seashore or the stars of the heavens. Hebrews tells us it was this foundational faith that led Abraham to obey God’s call when he heard it, though he was called to journey to a land he did not know and told he would father a mighty race through a marriage he thought was barren. But Abraham’s faith, the author of Hebrews tells us, was his realization of what he hoped for, and the evidence of what he could not see. How often are we, in simple daily events of our own Christian vocation, called to an unfamiliar place or told we are to do something we do not believe we can? How fortunate we are to have Father Abraham as our guide and example! Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

NUESTRO PADRE EN LA FE La Carta a los Hebreos hoy canta un himno de alabanza a Abraham y a su fe, sobre la cual se fundan la religión judía, la cristiana y la mahometana. Abraham es llamado “padre” de la fe por más personas en el mundo que cualquier otro; numerosas como la arena de la playa o las estrellas del cielo. La Carta a los Hebreos nos dice que esta fe firme lo impulsó a obedecer el llamado de Dios cuando lo envió a buscar una tierra desconocida y le dijo que sería padre de una raza poderosa, aunque consideraba su matrimonio infecundo. Pero la fe de Abraham, nos dice el autor de la Carta a los Hebreos, le permitía poseer lo que esperaba y conocer lo que no podía ver. ¿Cuántas veces nos vemos en simples sucesos cotidianos de nuestra vocación cristiana llamados a un sitio desconocido o enviados a hacer algo que no creemos poder hacer? ¡Qué afortunados somos por tener a nuestro padre Abraham como nuestro guía y ejemplo!

Dear Sacred Heart Parishioners,

Greetings to all. I’m Manuel “Manny” Recera. I’m glad to be back to working fulltime in the parish and I am looking forward to getting to know and serve you as your Pastor. I was born and educated in the Philippines in Mindanao. I am the second child in a family of eight siblings. After High School, I studied at Immaculate Heart of Mary Seminary, Taloto,

Tagbilarin City, where I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Philosophy and English. I studied theology at San Carlos Major Seminary in Cebu City to earn my Master’s Degree in Divinity. I was ordained on May 3, 1985 by my late Bishop Felix S. Zafra and was assigned as Parochial Vicar in my hometown at Holy Cross Church, Siocon Zamboanga Del Norte. A year after, I was assigned to our Diocesan College Seminary at Cor Jesu, to teach and act as Spiritual Director for seminarians. After four years, I was sent by my bishop for further study here in US at Catholic Theological Union in Chicago for my MA in Theology. I served at Our Lady of Lourdes Church and Transfiguration Church in Chicago. In 1996, I went home to the Philippines to serve my diocese for ten years. I worked as Parochial Vicar and Administrator in the parishes. At the same time, I worked in Campus Ministry in three Diocesan Colleges. Then, I was assigned as the VP for Religious Education in Catholic Schools and Colleges in the Diocese. Though I was busy working in the diocese, my bishop sent me for a year’s study in Manila and Tagaytay City. After my formation, I worked as a member of the staff of the CBCP on Episcopal Commission on Clergy. My last assignment was as the Rector of Cor Jesu College Seminary. In 2006, my bishop permitted me to work here in the US for ten years. I worked at the Diocese of Rockford for three years as Parochial Vicar at the parishes of St Joseph, St Mary and St Thomas Aquinas in Freeport, Illinois. Then, I moved to seek a warmer place (for I was always sick during winter time in Illinois.) I worked in the Diocese of Las Vegas and was the Parochial Vicar at St Joseph Husband of Mary’s Church. After a year I was invited by my classmate from the Archdiocese of San Francisco and visited Monterey. I feel at home and love the Monterey Peninsula. With the help of some Filipino priests, I applied to work in the Diocese of Monterey and Bishop Garcia accepted me. I worked as Chaplain at Palma High School and at the Newman Center at CSUMB in Marina. I was a resident priest here at Sacred Heart Church during that time. After a year and a half, I was sent by Bishop Garcia to Santa Cruz to work as Chaplain-Priest at Dominican Hospital for three and a half years. Last June was my 10th year of working here in the US and I was asked by my new bishop in the Philippines to make a decision either to stay in the US or to go back to the Philippines to serve. After prayer and discernment, I decided to stay in the Diocese of Monterey. I was formally released or excardinated by my bishop from my diocese last June. I will be officially incardinated to the Diocese of Monterey this August 14, 2016. I am happy and honored to be part of this Diocese. All my ministries from different dioceses were full of challenges and I have been blessed with grace-filled experiences. I am looking forward to serving Sacred Heart Parish and I do hope and pray that with your love, prayers, and active participation, I will be a good and holy servant of the Lord and His people. God bless us all.

Queridos Feligreses del Sagrado Corazón,

Saludos a todos. Soy Manuel "Manny" Recera. Estoy muy contento de regresar a esta parroquia de tiempo completo y estoy ansioso de conocer y servir como su sacerdote y administrador parroquia. Nací y me eduqué en las Filipinas en Mindanao. Soy el segundo hijo de una familia de ocho hermanos. Después de la secundaria, estudié en el seminario de Inmaculado Corazón de María en Taloto, Tagbilarin City, donde obtuve mi título de Licenciado en Filosofía de Inglés. Estudié teología en el Seminario Mayor San Carlos en Cebu City para recibir mi Maestría en Divinidad. Fui ordenado el 3 de mayo de 1985 por mi difunto Obispo Félix S. Zafra y fui asignado como Vicario Parroquial en mi pueblo en la iglesia de la Santa Cruz, Siocon Zamboanga del Norte. Un año después, me asignaron al Colegio Seminario Diocesano en Cor Jesu, para enseñar y actuar como director espiritual de los seminaristas. Después de 4 años, he sido enviado por mi obispo para estudiar aquí en los Estados Unidos en la Unión Teológica Católica en Chicago para mi maestría en Teología. Serví en la Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de Lourdes y la Iglesia de la Transfiguración en Chicago. En 1996, regrese a casa a las Filipinas para servir en mi diócesis durante diez años. Trabajé como Vicario Parroquial y Administrador en las parroquias. Al mismo tiempo, trabajé en el Ministerio de cada tres colegios Diocesanos. Entonces, me asignaron como el vicepresidente de la Educación Religiosa en las escuelas y colegios católicos de la Diócesis. Aunque estaba ocupado trabajando en la Diócesis, mi obispo me envió para estudiar un año más en Manila y la ciudad de Tagaytay. Después de mi formación, he trabajado como un miembro del personal de la CBCP en la Comisión Episcopal de Clero. Mi último trabajo fue como el Rector en el Seminario de Cor Jesu. En el 2006, mi obispo me permitió trabajar aquí en los Estados Unidos durante estos últimos diez años. Trabajé en la Diócesis de Rockford durante tres años como Vicario Parroquial en las parroquias de San José, Santa María y San Tomás de Aquino en Freeport, Illinois. Entonces, me fui a buscar un lugar más cálido (porque siempre estaba enfermo durante el invierno en Illinois.) Trabajé en la Diócesis de Las Vegas y era el Vicario Parroquial en la Iglesia de San José Esposo de María. Después de un año fui invitado por mi compañero de clase de la Arquidiócesis de San Francisco y Monterey. Me siento en casa y amo la Costa Central. Con la ayuda de algunos sacerdotes filipinos, me presenté a trabajar en la Diócesis de Monterey y fui aceptado por el obispo García. He trabajado como capellán de la escuela de Palma y en el Centro Newman en CSUMB en Marina. Yo estuve como sacerdote residente aquí en la Iglesia del Sagrado Corazón durante ese tiempo. Después de un año y medio, fui enviado por el obispo García a Santa Cruz para trabajar como capellán en el Hospital Dominican por 3 años y medio. En junio del año pasado fue mi 10mo año de trabajar aquí en Estados Unidos y mi nuevo obispo en las Filipinas me dijo que tenía que tomar una decisión, ya sea para permanecer en los Estados Unidos o para volver a las Filipinas para servir. Después de discernimiento y oración, decidí permanecer en la Diócesis de Monterey. Mi Obispo me dio el permiso formal y fui excardinado de mi Diócesis en junio del 2015. Estaré Oficialmente incardinado a la Diócesis de Monterey este agosto del año presente. Estoy feliz y es un honor ser parte de esta Diócesis. Todos mis ministerios en las diferentes Diócesis estuvieron llenos de retos estuve lleno de bendiciones. Estoy ansioso de servir a la Parroquia del Sagrado Corazón, y yo espero y rezo para que con su amor, oraciones y con su activa participación seré un siervo bueno y santo del Señor y este pueblo. Dios nos bendiga a todos.

I was in prison and you visited me. Matt 25:36. Being the presence of God for others who are incarcerated may be a turning point in someone’s healing and restore their dignity.

For more information call Deacon David at 772-8218.

Estuve en la cárcel y me visitaste. Mt 25:36. Siendo la presencia de Dios para los que están encarcelados, puede ser un punto de inflexión en la curación de una persona y restaurar su dignidad.

Si desea escuchar sobre sus experiencias y consideran si esto es un ministerio que le interesaría, se le invita a una reunión, el miércoles 24 de agosto a las 7:00 en la Oficina Parroquial.
