WELCOME TREVOR BEACH! On Monday, October 4, Trevor Beach, will begin as our new Director of Evangelization. Please
be sure to extend a warm welcome to him.
After earning his undergraduate degrees in Spanish and Theology (St. John’s University) and
graduate degrees from his studies in Theology and Philosophy (St. John’s School of Theology
and Fordham University), Trevor taught high school Religion and Ethics at Cristo Rey Jesuit
High School in Chicago for three years. Following his time in Chicago, he helped start a new
Catholic high school in Oklahoma City as the founding Theology Teacher. Most recently, Trevor
served at Ascension Michigan as the Coordinator of Ministry Formation where he helped
provide a range of educational and formational programs for healthcare leaders and frontline workers with the goal of
strengthening Catholic identity and rootedness in the healing ministry of Jesus.
Trevor is married to his wonderful wife, Fatima, and they are thankful to God to have received two beautiful daughters that
keep growing every single day. They enjoy watching good movies, learning different languages, and reading books that
teach them something new. Trevor appreciates having meaningful conversations, discovering great artwork, playing tennis,
and getting to know people who have a good sense of humor.
Welcome to the Cathedral, Trevor!

CORO ESPAÑOL ¡Paz y Bien!
Gracias por su cordial bienvenida a esta Iglesia Catedral.
Además de los coros ya establecidos que disfrutamos como
parte de nuestro ministerio de música, me gustaría iniciar
un coro en Español. Estoy pensando comenzar las practicas
los días Jueves por la tarde. Este coro nos ayudara a seguir
animando nuestra misa de la 1 de la tarde (1 o dos veces por
semana). Si bien la experiencia musical previa es
importante, no es necesaria.
Si estas interesado en este ministerio , me puede llamar al
(414) 276-9814, extensión 305 o escribirme a
[email protected] . También puedes
hablar conmigo después de la Misa.
Que Dios bendiga a Ustedes y a sus familias.
Bendiciones,
James Grzadzinski

Cathedral News & Notes...
Archbishop Fulton Sheen said, “It takes three to make love, not two:
you, your spouse, and God.” Apart from the incarnation of God in
Jesus Christ, nothing speaks better of God’s incarnate love than
marriage. God designed it this way. We place great value on love
and rightly so. What we fail to realize, however, is that love, its very
presence and place in our lives, is not simply part of the human
package deal. Love comes from God. It is one of God’s greatest gifts
to human beings. When we begin to realize that our very ability to
love is sacred, it changes up how we see the essence of life, and
purpose and sanctity of marriage.
God is love. It stands to reason then that if we follow the path of
unconditional, self-emptying love we will then stumble upon God.
It is precisely this intimate wedding of God with love that gives
such eloquence and honor to the love between husband and wife.
As a living sign of Christ’s love for the Church and for humanity,
husbands and wives speak volumes of God’s unconditional
incarnate love for all of his children! The Divine power that brings
unity and life to marriage is so strong that once joined, it really
cannot be separated.
Admittedly, marriage covenants can be extremely difficult to
negotiate and, at times, very painful to experience. God’s perfect
divinity always meets our broken and imperfect humanity. God is
okay with this setup as he created it this way. Our loving is never as
unconditional as God’s and often tainted by our own imperfections,
needs, memories, hurts, sinfulness, and weakness. All of this
baggage negatively impacts even the most well-intentioned
marriages, causing them to be hurtful and empty. We are love
works in progress. God can succeed in perfecting our love only if
we keep our eyes fixed on him as the source of that love. That’s why
marriage is always about three and not just two.
The Divine intimacy at the heart of marriage is what can make them
celebrations of great union and happiness. Couples who are still
madly in love with each other after many years, still looking at each
other with that timeless twinkle in their eyes, best tell the story of
God’s oneness with humanity. Honor, celebrate, and support those
who have accepted a vocation to marriage. Living in a world that
easily pulls relationships apart, may they find hope and inspiration
from their faith companions who are on the same journey! © LPi
Hoy el contenido de las lecturas enfatiza tres temas: matrimonio,
divorcio y fidelidad. Toda la liturgia de la Palabra se desarrolla en
torno a esta delicada situación: el matrimonio que no es desechable
ni fácil de cambiar. Muy a pesar de que en ocasiones se piensa que
es cosa del pasado. El tema que es muy delicado lo aborda el mismo
Jesús en el Evangelio, y lo clarifica aún más a sus discípulos en
privado, para que no exista duda. “Lo que Dios ha unido, que el
hombre no lo separe” (Mateo 10:9). El énfasis debe estar en la fidelidad
del uno para con el otro.
Lo que Dios unió, que no lo separe el hombre. Ni los padres de
familia que están en contra del matrimonio de su hija o hijo. Ni las
desavenencias de los conyugues en la vida de todos los días. Ni la
falta de amor y diálogo en el matrimonio y la familia en general. Ni
los amigos del esposo ni las amigas de ella. Nadie lo puede hacer
porque, sencillamente, es un Sacramento instituido por Dios. El
papa Francisco nos dice lo siguiente al respecto: “En el proyecto
originario del Creador, se trata de un hombre y una mujer llamados a
reconocerse, a completarse, a ayudarse mutuamente en el matrimonio. Esta
enseñanza de Jesús es muy clara y defiende la dignidad del matrimonio
como una unión de amor que implica fidelidad. (Octubre 7- 2018). “Por
eso dejará el hombre a su padre y a su madre para unirse con su esposa, y
los dos serán una sola carne”. (Mateo 10:7). Que al participar en esta
Eucaristía dominical nos ayude a crecer en fidelidad para ser
ejemplo de vida a los que nos rodean, especialmente en casa. © LPi
