Dear Parishioners, It has come to my attention that there are individuals and couples who are receiving Holy Communion who are living

together and not married through the Church. If you are having sex with someone to whom you are not married to

through the Church, you are committing the sin of fornication. A civil marriage is not the Sacrament of Marriage.

Fornication is a mortal sin and receiving Holy Communion with a mortal sin on your soul is called sacrilege. Sacrilege is

the abuse of something that is sacred, and there is nothing more sacred than the Body of Christ.

Also, we as Catholics should not go to the civil weddings of those who are Catholic and who should get married through

the Church. We can go to the civil marriages of two non-Catholics. If we go to the civil wedding of a Catholic we are

serving as witnesses to people willingly entering into a relationship of fornication. This is a mortal sin on their part and

our part. Our decisions have consequences and we cannot support any action that is sinful, even if it is a child, friend, or

family member getting married civilly who should be getting married through the church.

That being said, there is almost nothing to prevent anyone from getting married through the Church, so please talk to

me about getting married. Lent is a time to correct our sinfulness and if we remain in our sinfulness we will be judged by

God for our unwillingness to change our actions and seek conversion.

If we have a mortal sin on our soul we are not in communion with God and the Church because of our own decisions.

Since we are in not communion with God we cannot receive Holy Communion. It's all about relationship and confession

heals that relationship. We will have a penance service on Friday, April 3rd at 6 PM where the bishop and several priests

will come to help us be in communion with God and one another through the Sacrament of Confession.

I pray that this Season of Lent challenges us to change our sinful ways, turn to God, and live out the holiness to which

God has called us.

In the Joy of Christ,

Fr. Philip Brune

Estimados Feligreses Ha llegado a mi atención que hay individuos y parejas que reciben la Sagrada Comunión que viven juntos y no están

casados a través de la Iglesia. Si tiene relaciones sexuales con alguien con quien no está casado a través de la Iglesia,

está cometiendo el pecado de fornicación. Un matrimonio civil no es el sacramento del matrimonio. La fornicación es

un pecado mortal y recibir la Sagrada Comunión con un pecado mortal en tu alma se llama sacrilegio. El sacrilegio es el

abuso de algo que es sagrado, y no hay nada más sagrado que el Cuerpo de Cristo.

Además, nosotros como católicos no debemos ir a las bodas civiles de aquellos que son católicos y que deben casarse a

través de la Iglesia. Podemos ir a los matrimonios civiles de dos no católicos. Si vamos a la boda civil de un católico,

estamos sirviendo como testigos de personas que voluntariamente entran en una relación de fornicación. Este es un

pecado mortal de su parte y de nuestra parte. Nuestras decisiones tienen consecuencias y no podemos apoyar ninguna

acción que sea pecaminosa, incluso si es un niño, un amigo o un miembro de la familia que se casa civilmente y que

debería casarse a través de la iglesia.

Dicho esto, no hay casi nada que impida que alguien se case por medio de la Iglesia, así que por favor hábleme acerca

de casarse. La Cuaresma es un tiempo para corregir nuestra pecaminosidad y si permanecemos en nuestro pecado

seremos juzgados por Dios por nuestra falta de voluntad para cambiar nuestras acciones y buscar la conversión.

Si tenemos un pecado mortal en nuestra alma, no estamos en comunión con Dios y la Iglesia debido a nuestras propias

decisiones. Como no estamos en comunión con Dios, no podemos recibir la Sagrada Comunión. Se trata de una relación

y la confesión cura esa relación. Tendremos un servicio de penitencia el viernes 3 de abril a las 6 PM donde el obispo y

varios sacerdotes vendrán a ayudarnos a estar en comunión con Dios y entre nosotros a través del Sacramento de la

Confesión.

Rezo para que esta temporada de Cuaresma nos desafíe a cambiar nuestras formas pecaminosas, recurrir a Dios y vivir la

santidad a la que Dios nos ha llamado.

En la Alegría de Cristo,

Padre Felipe Brune

IN CHURCH

AT 7:00 PM

All Altar Servers and Parents,

As we enter the Lenten Season, we are reminded of the sacrifice and temptations our Lord went

through for 40 days. Let us keep this in our hearts and minds as we are asked to serve in our

ministry. Thank you for the sacrifice each time you make it to our practices as well as serving at

Mass when you are scheduled. I also know that there may be temptations to not come to practice or

to not serve at Mass, but let us overcome these temptations. I pray we will continue to grow

spiritually in our commitment to our ministry as altar servers with the support of our parents. During

Lent, we will have practice every Wednesday starting March 4th, 18th, 25th and April 1st. at 5:00 PM.

Let us commit to growth in spirit, mind, and service as we attend each practice.

With God’s Grace,

Adrian Canales

Todos los Monaguillos y Padres,

Al entrar en la temporada de Cuaresma, se nos recuerda el sacrificio y las tentaciones que sufrió

nuestro Señor por 40 días. Mantengamos esto en nuestros corazones y mentes mientras se nos pide

que sirvamos en nuestro ministerio. Gracias por el sacrificio cada vez que llegan a nuestras prácticas,

además de servir en la misa cuando están programados. También sé que puede haber tentaciones

para no venir a practicar o no servir en la Misa, pero superemos estas tentaciones. Ruego que

continuemos creciendo espiritualmente en nuestro compromiso con nuestro ministerio como

monaguillos con el apoyo de nuestros padres. Durante la Cuaresma, practicaremos todos los

miércoles empezando el 4°, 18°, 25° de marzo y el 1° de abril a las 5:00 p.m. Comprometámonos a

crecer en espíritu, mente y servicio a medida que asistimos a cada práctica.

Con la Gracia de Dios,

Adrian Canales
