Parish Mission Statement
As a Jesuit Parish Community, animated by the spirit of St. Ignatius,
we welcome all to share in the joy of the Gospel
and to come to know, love and serve God and one another.
ONE BOOK, ONE PARISH
Many of us in the parish were so moved by Pope Francis' Joy of the Gospel that the Pastoral
Council decided it would like to invite the whole parish to read it together over the next five
months. The second Sunday of each month will be Joy of the Gospel Sunday and we will be
facilitating conversations among parishioners about the different sections of the document. We
expect that they will take place following the liturgies.
On Sunday November 23 at 2:00 pm we will have an inaugural event of music, dance, and
reflections from Staff and parishioners. We will be featuring parish musicians, Paul Melley,
Tmothy Zimmermann, Michelle Abadia, Luis Garmarra and others who fill us with JOY
through their gifts. We are especially blessed to have Owen Young, cellist with the BSO and
one of our parishioners, as a special guest performer. The event will be followed by a wine and
cheese reception. We invite you to join other parishioners on November 23 to celebrate the
feast of Christ the King of the Universe and The Joy of the Gospel.

You can purchase copies of The Joy of the Gospel from the USSCB website or from Amazon.
You can also download a free copy from the Vatican website. We also have created a page on
Facebook where you can add comments about the document as we read it together. Here is the

Thank you to the bakers and servers that have enabled us to continue our long-running ministry

Siendo una comunidad parroquial jesuita, animada por el espíritu de san Ignacio, les damos a
todos la bienvenida para compartir la alegría del evangelio y para conocer, amar y servir a Dios
Queridos Parroquianos,
Durante este mes de noviembre habrán muchas oportunidades en las cuales podrán
profundizar en su fe. El padre Juanjo Exteberría va a ofrecer un estudio de los ejercicios
espirituales. Este taller toma lugar los martes a las siete hasta las ocho de la noche.La reunión
será en la sala de coro o en la capilla Lannon.
Estamos en proceso de hacer planes para un día de oración y reflexión, el 22 de Noviembre. Éste
comenzará a las 9 y media y durará hasta las tres. Este fin de semana celebraremos la fiesta de
Cristo Rey del Universo. Es el ultimo domingo del año antes de que empiece el Adviento. El
foco del día será el tiempo del adviento para celebrarlo con cariño y mucho afecto.
Quisiera avisarles también, de un esfuerzo que toda la parroquia va a hacer durante los cinco
meses que vienen. Queremos leer juntos la exhortación del Papa Francisco, “La Alegría del
Evangelio”. El segundo domingo de cada mes, habrá una oportunidad de conversar juntos
sobre los temas que Papa Francisco nos invita a contemplar. Para empezar este esfuerzo con
entusiasmo, habrá un evento, el 23 de Noviembre a las dos de la tarde en la iglesia de arriba.
Habrá una celebración de la Alegría del Evangelio con música, danza y testimonios. Me alegra
decir que muchos músicos de la parroquia han acordado participar. Por la parte de la
comunidad latina participarán Luis Gamarra y Michelle Abadiá. Por la parte de la comunidad
anglo, participarán Paul Melley, Timothy Zimmermann y otros. Tendremos también, los
talentos extraordinarios de Owen Young, quien es cellista que toca con el BSO además de ser
parroquiano en San Ignacio.
Espero que haya una buena participación de parroquianos de participantes de la comunidad
latina para esta celebración.
En el amor de Cristo,
Padre Bob
