STEWARDSHIP
FROM FATHER RAY
“Thank you!” These two words cannot sum up
my gratitude to all those who, over the past
three years, have given of their time, talent, and
treasure, not only to me, but most importantly,
to each of the churches where I’ve ministered.
I wish I could thank you each by name, but as
you know, I’d be afraid to forget someone.
Know that I know who you are and what
you’ve done.
In the past three years, as far as I’m concerned,
all three churches have grown tremendously,
not only in numbers, not only financially, but
most excellently spiritually. For this I am truly
grateful to almighty God that He has blessed
me in my first pastorate here at St. Paul, Holy
Family, and St. William. Continue to pray for
me, as I will for you. --Fr. Ray

“…your abundance at the present time
should supply their needs…”
(2 Corinthians 8:14)
Economic crisis can teach us many valuable
stewardship lessons. We are quickly realizing
that as individuals and as a society we really
did not need everything that we wanted. We
are also learning to count our blessings and to
see that we have been abundantly blessed by
God. And, hopefully, we are becoming more
willing to share our gifts with those who truly
are in need.

PRAYER FOR PRIESTS
O Jesus, I pray for Your faithful and fervent
priests; for Your priests laboring at home or
abroad in distant mission fields.
But above all I recommend to You the priests
dearest to me: the priest who baptized me; the
priests who absolved me from my sins; the
priests at whose Masses I assisted and
who gave me Your Body and Blood
in Holy Communion; the priests
who taught and instructed me;
all the priests to whom I am indebted.
O Jesus, keep them close to Your heart, and
bless them abundantly in time and in eternity.
Amen. --from The Catholic Devotional
ORACIÓN POR LOS SACERDOTES
Guárdelos, oh Señor, yo te lo ruego:
Guárdelos: tuyos son: tus ministros, cual mirra,
incienso, espliego, queman sus vidas en tu
Templo, al fuego de amor y adoración.
Guárdelos, oh Señor, en su aislamiento; Tu su
consuelo es cuando parezca que se lleva el
viento todo su sacrificio en un momento,
que todo inútil fue.
Guárdelos, Dios: no tienen en su mano más que
a Ti en propiedad: lo que no es Dios lo
consideran vano, mas, aun así, su corazón
humano ve su fragilidad.
Pues que cuando el Oriente se decora de azul y
carmesí, su vida te dedican con la aurora, haz,
Dios, que a toda hora su vida brille así:
tan pura como la Hostia redentora
que elevan hacia Ti.
--José L. Carreño, S.D.B.
DEL PADRE RAY
"¡Gracias!" Estas dos palabras no se puede
resumir mi gratitud a todos aquellos que, en los
últimos tres años, han dado su tiempo, talento y
tesoro, no sólo a mí, pero lo más importante,
para cada una de las iglesias en las que he
ministrado. Me gustaría darle las gracias a cada
uno por su nombre, pero como ustedes saben,
me daría miedo de olvidar a alguien. Sé quién
eres y lo que has hecho.
En los últimos tres años, en la medida que a mí
respecta, las tres iglesias han crecido
enormemente, no sólo en número, no sólo
económicamente, sino espiritualmente más
excelente. Por esto estoy muy agradecido a
Dios Todopoderoso que me ha bendecido en
mi primera asignatura como Parroco aquí en
San Pablo, la Sagrada Familia, y San William.
Continúen orando por mí, como yo lo hare por
ustedes. – Padre Ray
Paz a ustedes.
Como el Padre me envió a mí, así
yo los envió a ustedes.
(San Juan 20:21)

CORRESPONSABILIDAD
"... Su abundancia en el momento actual
debe satisfacer sus necesidades ..."
(2 Corintios 8:14)
La crisis económica nos puede enseñar muchas
lecciones valiosas de corresponsabilidad. Nos
estamos dando cuenta que como individuos y
como sociedad que realmente no necesitamos
todo lo que queríamos. También estamos
aprendiendo a contar nuestras bendiciones y
ver que hemos sido abundantemente
bendecidos por Dios. Y estamos cada vez más
dispuestos a compartir nuestros dones con los
que realmente están necesitados.
ÓBOLO DE SAN PEDRO: COLECTA ESPECIAL
Vamos a tener una colecta especial el próximo
